Installation Site To ensure safety and utmost performance of the copier, the copier should NOT be used in a place: q Where it will be subject to extremely high or low temperature or humidity. q Which is exposed to direct sunlight. q Which is in the direct air stream of an air conditioner, heater or ventilator. q Which puts the operator in the direct stream of exhaust from the copier. q Which has poor ventilation. q Where ammonia gas might be generated. q Which does not have a stable, level floor. q Where it will be subject to sudden fluctuations in either temperature or humidity. If a cold room is quickly heated, condensation forms inside the copier, resulting in blank spots in the copy. q Which is near any kind of heating device. q Where it may be splashed with water. q Which is dirty or where it will receive undue vibration. q Which is near volatile flammables or curtains. Power Source Use an outlet with a capacity of 115/120/127V, 13.2A or more, or 200/220/240V, 8.1A or more. q If any other electrical equipment is sourced from the same power outlet, make sure that the capacity of the outlet is not exceeded. q Use a power source with little voltage fluctuation. q Never connect by means of a multiple socket any other appliances or machines to the outlet being used for the copier. q Make the following checks at frequent intervals: Is the power plug abnormally hot? Are there any cracks or scrapes in the cord? Has the power plug been inserted fully into the outlet? Does something, including the copier itself, ride on the power cord? q Ensure that the copier does not ride on the power cord or communications cable of other electrical equipment, and that it does not become wedged into or underneath the mechanism. Grounding To prevent receiving electrical shocks in the case of electrical leakage, always ground the copier. q Connect the grounding wire to: The ground terminal of the outlet. A grounding contact which complies with the local electrical standards. q Never connect the grounding wire to a gas pipe, the grounding wire for a telephone, or a water pipe.

4 PRECAUTIONS FOR USE

To ensure that the copier is used in an optimum condition, observe the following precautions. q Never place a heavy object on the copier or subject the copier to shocks. q Insert the power plug all the way into the outlet. q Do not attempt to remove any panel or cover which is secured while the copier is making copies. q Do not turn OFF the Power Switch while the copier is making copies. q Provide good ventilation when making a large number of copies continuously. q Never use flammable sprays near the copier. q If the copier becomes inordinately hot or produces abnormal noise, turn it OFF and unplug it. q Do not turn ON the Power Switch at the same time when you plug the power cord into the outlet. q When unplugging the power cord, do not pull on the cord; hold the plug and pull it out. q Do not bring any magnetized object near the copier. q Do not place a vase or vessel containing water on the copier. q Be sure to turn OFF the Power Switch at the end of the workday or upon power failure. q Use care not to drop paper clips, staples, or other small pieces of metal into the copier. Operating Environment The operating environmental requirements of the copier are as follows. Temperature: 10C to 30C with a fluctuation of 10C per hour Humidity: 15% to 85% RH with a fluctuation of 20% RH per hour Power Requirements The power source voltage requirements are as follows. Voltage Fluctuation: AC115/120/127/200/220/240V 10% (Copying performance assured) 15% (Paper feeding performance assured) Frequency Fluctuation: 50/60 Hz 0.3%
G-6
5 HANDLING OF THE CONSUMABLES

Before using any consumables, always read the label on its container carefully. q Use the right toner. The applicable copier model name is indicated on the Toner Bottle. q Paper is apt to be easily damaged by dampness. To prevent absorption of moisture, store paper, which has been removed from its wrapper but not loaded into the Drawer, in a sealed plastic bag in a cool, dark place. q Keep consumables out of the reach of children. q Do not touch the PC Drum with bare hands. q Store the paper, toner, and other consumables in a place free from direct sunlight and away from any heating apparatus. q The same sized paper is of two kinds, short grain and long grain. Short grain paper should only be fed through the copier crosswise, long grain paper should only be fed lengthwise. q If your hands become soiled with toner, wash them with soap and water immediately. q Do not throw away any used consumables (PC Drum, starter, toner, etc.). They are to be collected. NOTE Do not burn, bury in the ground, or throw into the water any consumables (PC Drum, starter, toner, etc.).

1. PC Drum
The PC Drum is an aluminum cylinder coated with a photosensitive semiconductor. It is used as the medium on which a visible developed image of the original is formed. (For more details, see p. M-23.)
2. Drum Charging
The PC Drum Charge Corona Unit is equipped with a single wire and a Scorotron Grid to deposit a uniform negative charge across the entire surface of the PC Drum. (For more details, see p. M-25.)
3. Image Erase
Any areas of charge which are not to be developed are neutralized by lighting up LEDs. (For more details, see p. M-55.)
4. Exposure
Light from the Exposure Lamp reflected off the original is guided to the surface of the PC Drum and reduces the level of the negative charges, thereby forming an electrostatic latent image. (For more details, see p. M-29.)
5. Developing
Toner positively charged in the Developer Mixing Chamber is attracted onto the electrostatic latent image changing it to a visible, developed image. A DC negative bias voltage is applied to the Sleeve/Magnet Roller to prevent toner from being attracted onto those areas of the PC Drum which correspond to the background areas of the original. (For more details, see p. M-62.)
M-2
6. Paper Feeding
Paper is fed either automatically from the 1st or 2nd Drawer, or manually via the Manual Bypass Table (capacity 50 sheets of paper). Each Drawer has fingers that function to separate the top sheet of paper from the rest at take-up. The Manual Bypass Table has a Separator Roll that functions to separate the top sheet of paper from the rest at take-up. (For more details, see p. M-78.)
7. Image Transfer
The single-wire Image Transfer Corona Unit applies a DC negative corona emission to the underside of the paper, thereby attracting toner onto the surface of the paper. (For more details, see p. M-104.)
8. Paper Separation
The single-wire Paper Separator Corona Unit applies an AC corona emission to the underside of the paper to neutralize the paper. In addition, mechanical paper separation is provided by the two PC Drum Paper Separator Fingers fitted to the Imaging Unit. (For more details, see p. M-104.)
9. Cleaning
Residual toner on the surface of the PC Drum is scraped off by the Cleaning Blade. (For more details, see p. M-108.)
10. Main Erase

Light from the Main Erase Lamp neutralizes any surface potential remaining on the surface of the PC Drum after cleaning. (For more details, see p. M-118.)
11. Transport
The paper is fed to the Fusing Unit by the Suction Belts. (For more details, see p. M-120.)
12. Fusing
The developed image is permanently fused to the paper by a combination of heat and pressure applied by the Upper and Lower Fusing Rollers. (For more details, see p. M-123.)
13. Paper Exit

After the fusing process the paper is fed out by the Paper Exit Roller onto the Exit Tray. (For more details, see p. M-131.)

5 WATCHDOG (CPU OVERRUN MONITOR) FUNCTION

5-1. Overview The watchdog function monitors whether any of the CPUs mounted in the copier overrun. If this function detects that a CPU overruns, the copier automatically resets the CPU, thereby restarting the logic circuit and mechanism. Even if a copier CPU operates erratically due to electrical noise, therefore, the copier is able to recover from the faulty condition so that the number of visits made by the Technical Representative for CPU overrun can be minimized. 5-2. Configuration The copier has three printed-circuit boards each on which a CPU is mounted:
* SCP (Scanner Control Processor) Board PWB-J that controls the optical
system;
* MSC (Macro System Controller) Board PWB-B that controls the control
panel and system; and,

* Master Board PWB-A which controls the copier, Paper Feed Cabinet and
Duplex Unit. In addition to these, each of the control boards for the Data Controller, Duplexing/Automatic Document Feeders, and Sorter/Staple Sorter is equipped with a CPU. The watchdog functions are summarized as follows: * Each of the copier CPUs monitors whether or not it overruns. * The PWB-B monitors the communications conditions of the CPUs in the Duplexing/Automatic Document Feeder and Data Controller. * The PWB-A monitors the communications conditions of the CPUs in the Sorter and Staple Sorter. * The control boards for the Paper Feed Cabinet and Duplex Unit do not have a CPU in them. Instead, the PWB-A in the copier controls their operations.

5-3. Watchdog Function Post-Processing The following processing is performed if a faulty condition is detected in the CPU. The Watchdog Counter available from the Tech. Rep. mode allows the Technical Representative to check if any faulty conditions has occurred in the CPU. For details, see SWITCHES ON PWBs.
Faulty CPU Copier
Processing (in Standby) 1 : The CPU is automatically reset (i.e., shutting down power to all CPUs including those on the options) as soon as a faulty CPU is detected.
Processing (during Copy Cycle) 1: Same as 1 on the left. 2: Since the paper is left inside the copier, the copier detects a misfed sheet of paper or two when power is turned ON again. If the MSC CPU is faulty, however, all paper in line for the exit will be ejected and all paper headed to the duplex will be stored, before restarting the CPU. 1 : Same as 1, 2, and 3 on the left. 2 : The paper take-up sequence is stopped. 3 : All sheets of paper being fed through the copier are fed out of the copier. 4 : Same as 4, 5, and 6 on the left.
Sorter, Staple Sorter
1 : When the CPU malfunctions, the communication to Master Board PWB-A of the copier is cut off or faulty data is transmitted to the PWB-A. 2 : The PWB-A detects that the CPU of the Sorter or Staple Sorter is faulty. 3 : The PWB-A notifies MSC Board PWB-B that the CPU of the Sorter or Staple Sorter is faulty. 4 : As commanded by the PWB-B, Option Relay RY4C is turned OFF and ON to restart the option. 5 : The communication line from the CPU of the Sorter or Staple Sorter to PWB-A is recovered. 6 : PWB-A notifies PWB-B that the CPU of the Sorter or Staple Sorter has recovered from the faulty condition.

6 IMAGE STABILIZATION SYSTEM

6-1. Overview of the Image Stabilization System .
x The following image stabilization controls are provided to ensure
stabilized copy image.

Quality FF or F5 Operation Purpose Control After making the variation adjustment and contamination correction for the AIDC Sensor, the copier produces a solid-black and halftone pattern and, through AIDC Sensor control, sets the initial values for the grid voltage and optimum Exposure Lamp voltage. After making the AIDC Sensor contamination correction, the copier produces a solid-black pattern and, through AIDC Sensor control, corrects the grid voltage. After making the AIDC Sensor contamination correction, the copier produces a halftone pattern and, through AIDC Sensor control, corrects the optimum Exposure Lamp voltage. The copier provides toner replenishing control through ATDC Sensor control.
Image density, To make an initial gradation adjustment of grid voltage (V0) and optimum Exposure Lamp voltage.
Regular Correction
Image density
To compensate for any drop in image density due to a deteriorating PC Drum.
Gradation
To compensate for any drop in the intensity of LA1 light due to a contaminated optical system.
Foggy background
To keep a given toner-to-carrier ratio of the developer in the Developer Mixing Chamber.
Image density, One-Shot Correction gradation (When the Power Switch is turned ON)
To compensate for After making the AIDC Sensor any drop in surface contamination correction, the potential of the PC copier produces a solid-black Drum upon and halftone pattern and, power-up in the through AIDC Sensor control, morning. corrects the grid voltage and optimum Exposure Lamp voltage.

6-2. AIDC Sensor Control

There are five processes performed as the AIDC Sensor control: AIDC Sensor variation adjustment AIDC Sensor contamination correction Grid voltage (VG) correction Optimum Exposure Lamp voltage correction (Exposure correction) AE Sensor gain adjustment
x Control of Each Process
[1] AIDC Sensor Variation Adjustment This adjustment is made since the regular current control cannot cover part-to-part variations in the AIDC Sensor (installation, circuit, deterioration, etc.). [Control] The AIDC Sensor LED is turned ON to illuminate the erased surface on the PC Drum.
The 4-bit analog switch selects the load resistance. The output current from the AIDC Sensor goes through the load resistance
selected in step (2) and the resultant voltage is applied to Master Board PWB-A.
The load resistance is switched so that the above voltage becomes 1 V or
less, at which time, the analog switch setting is fixed.
M-13
[2] AIDC Sensor Contamination Correction If the Sensor is dirty with toner, it results in an error being produced in the AIDC Sensor output value. The intensity of the AIDC Sensor LED light is therefore varied. [Control] The AIDC Sensor LED is turned ON to illuminate the erased surface on the PC Drum.
The output voltage from the AIDC Sensor is applied to Master Board
PWB-A.
The current that flows through the AIDC Sensor LED is varied so that the
above output voltage becomes 1V. When 1V is obtained, the pulse signal is fixed.
1136C01M
M-14
[3] Grid Voltage (VG) Correction The following five different types of controls are provided for VG correction. The Machine checks the T/C Ratio before the Controls (1), (2), (3) and (4). In case of the detected T/C Ratio is within the Level (1) Controls (1), (2), (3) and (4) will not run. 1: Min. (Setting Level on the Service Mode: 4.5% to 8%) 2% Max. 7% (1) The grid voltage is adjusted at the initial setup or when the PC Drum has been replaced with a new one. [Control] Master Board PWB-A outputs a pulse signal to obtain a grid voltage of 550 V when the first F5 or FF test operation is run after the Drum Counter has been cleared.
With Exposure Lamp LA1 turned OFF, Image Erase Lamp LA2 is kept
OFF for a given period of time to produce a solid-black pattern.

The AIDC Sensor output voltage is applied to PWB-A. The grid voltage is varied so that the above voltage becomes 4.2 V or
more, thereby setting the pulse signal for VG. (2) The correction is made to compensate for any drop in the surface potential of a deteriorating PC Drum. [Control] Whenever the cumulative time over which the PC Drum has turned exceeds the level equivalent to 400 copies, PWB-A outputs a pulse signal for the voltage corrected last at the end of the last copy cycle for the above event.
With LA1 turned OFF, LA2 is kept OFF for a given period of time to
produce a solid-black pattern.

The AIDC Sensor output voltage is applied to PWB-A. The grid voltage is varied so that the above voltage falls within the
range between 4.2 V and 4.4 V, thereby setting the pulse signal for VG . (3) The correction is made to compensate for any drop in the surface potential of a cold PC Drum immediately after the copier is turned ON in the morning. [Control]
During predrive after the Power Switch has been turned ON, PWB-A
outputs a pulse signal for the voltage corrected last.


The AIDC Sensor output voltage is applied to PWB-A. The grid voltage is varied so that the above voltage becomes 4.2 V or
more, thereby setting the pulse signal for VG.
M-15
(4) The one-shot correction is canceled as the inside temperature of the copier rises. [Control] Upon completion of the copy cycle for every 100 copies made after the Power Switch has been turned ON, PWB-A outputs a pulse signal for the corrected voltage before one-shot correction.

The AIDC Sensor output voltage is applied to PWB-A. These operations are repeated at every 100 copies made until the
above voltage becomes 4.2 V or more. If, however, 600 or more copies are made or a standby period of 120 minutes or more elapses after the Power Switch has been turned ON, the one-shot correction is canceled. (5) A correction is made by increasing the grid voltage by 30 V each time the cumulative time over which the PC Drum has turned exceeds 2,800 minutes if the copier has previously determined that the AIDC Sensor is faulty.

[4] Optimum Exposure Lamp Voltage Correction (Exposure Correction) The following five different types of controls are provided for the optimum Exposure Lamp voltage correction. The Machine checks the T/C Ratio before the Controls (1), (2), (3) and (4). In case of the detected T/C Ratio is within the Level (1) Controls (1), (2), (3) and (4) will not run. 1: Min. (Setting Level on the Service Mode: 4.5% to 8%) 2% Max. 7% (1) The optimum Exposure Lamp voltage is adjusted at the initial setup or when the PC Drum has been replaced with a new one. [Control] PWB-A outputs a pulse signal to obtain an optimum Exposure Lamp voltage of 58 V when the first F5 or FF test operation is run after the Drum Counter has been cleared.
LA1 is turned ON to illuminate the halftone patch on the back of the
Original Width Scale and LA2 is kept OFF for a given period of time to produce a halftone pattern.
The AIDC Sensor output voltage is applied to PWB-A. The Exposure Lamp voltage is varied according to the difference
between the above voltage and the target median. (This is done by changing the pulse signal for the Exposure Lamp voltage.) (2) The correction is made when the F5 test operation is run after the Exposure Lamp has been cleaned or the SCH-70 (Exposure Lamp voltage adjustment) setting changed. [Control] When the second or subsequent F5 test operation is run, PWB-A outputs a pulse signal for the Exposure Lamp voltage set at the last exposure correction.
The AIDC Sensor output voltage is applied to PWB-A. The Exposure Lamp voltage is varied according to the difference

(3) The correction is made to compensate for any drop in the reduced intensity of LA1 light occurring due to a contaminated optical system. [Control] Whenever the cumulative time over which the copier has run exceeds the level equivalent to 5 K copies, PWB-A outputs a pulse signal for the Exposure Lamp voltage corrected last at the end of the last copy cycle for the above event.
The AIDC Sensor output voltage is applied to PWB-A. The Exposure Lamp voltage is varied so that the above voltage will fall
within the target range. (This is done by changing the pulse signal for the Exposure Lamp voltage.) (4) A correction is made for the intensity of LA1 light equivalent to the changes made in VG by one-shot correction. [Control]
After VG has been corrected in one-shot correction, PWB-A outputs a
pulse signal for the Exposure Lamp voltage set at the last exposure correction.

(5) When the copier has found that the AIDC Sensor is faulty, the intensity of LA1 light is increased by 1V each time the time over which the copier has run exceeds 700 minutes. The intensity of LA1 light is also varied in proportion to the changes made in grid voltage varied according to the cumulative time over which the PC Drum has turned.

[5] AE Sensor Gain Adjustment The following two different types of controls are provided for the AE Sensor gain adjustment. (1) The AE Sensor gain is adjusted when the F5 or FF test operation is run. [Control] When the F5 or FF test operation is run, the Exposure Lamp is turned ON to illuminate a blank sheet of paper placed on the Original Glass with an optimum Exposure Lamp voltage.
The AE Sensor output voltage is applied to PWB-A. The AE Sensor gain is varied so that the above voltage becomes 1.8 V
0.05, thereby setting the pulse signal for the gain.
The Exposure Lamp is turned ON to illuminate the halftone patch on the
back of the Original Width Scale with the optimum Exposure Lamp voltage.
The AE Sensor output voltage is applied to PWB-A and stored in
memory. (2) The AE Sensor gain is corrected as necessary according to the Exposure Lamp voltage changed as a result of "exposure correction." [Control] After the "exposure correction" has been made, the Exposure Lamp is turned ON to illuminate the halftone patch on the back of the Original Width Scale with the optimum Exposure Lamp voltage.
The AE Sensor output voltage is applied to PWB-A. The AE Sensor gain is adjusted so that the above voltage becomes the
voltage value stored in memory when F5 was run.

7 PC DRUM
7-1. PC Drum
* The photoconductive drum used in this copier is the organic
photoconductor (OPC) type.

* The drum is made up of two distinct, semiconductive materials on an
aluminum alloy base. The outer of the two layers is called the Charge Transport Layer (CTL), while the inner layer is called the Charge Generating Layer (CGL). * The PC Drum measures 80 mm 350 mm. Handling Precautions This photoconductor exhibits greatest light fatigue after being exposed to light over an extended period of time. It must therefore be protected from light by a clean, soft cloth whenever the PC Unit has been removed from the copier. Further, use utmost care when handling the PC Drum to prevent it from being contaminated.

* When the PC Unit is slid into the copier, the Coupling Gear, driven by a
timing belt and gear from Main Drive Motor M1, is engaged with the flange of the PC Drum. This connects the drive train for the PC Drum. * The PC Drum is grounded to the frame of the copier through the Ground Point inside the rear of the PC Drum and the Drum Holding Shaft. When the PC Unit is slid into the copier, the Drum Holding Shaft contacts the Ground Point inside the PC Drum. This provides for assured grounding of the PC Drum. Conductive grease has been applied to the Ground Point.

8 DRUM CHARGING
8-1. PC Drum Charge Corona
The PC Drum Charge Corona in this copier is equipped with a Scorotron
Grid which ensures that a DC negative charge is evenly deposited across the entire surface of the PC Drum. The grid voltage applied to the Grid Mesh of the PC Drum Charge Corona is varied to compensate for any drop in V0 which could occur with age or under low temperatures in the morning. This ensures stabilized image quality. (For more details, see "6. IMAGE STABILIZATION SYSTEM.") The Constant-Voltage Circuit in High Voltage Unit HV1 maintains the grid voltage in the range between DC-550V and DC-850V according to the Grid Control pulse (PWM) output from Master Board PWB-A.

Since there is a potential difference between the Grid Mesh and PC Drum, the negative charges of the corona emission flow through the Grid Mesh to the surface of the PC Drum. This results in the surface being negatively charged. When the potential of the Grid Mesh becomes equal to that of the PC Drum (i.e., when the potential of the PC Drum becomes the grid voltage set by the Grid Control pulse), the negative corona current flows from the Grid Mesh through HV1 to the ground.

The Auxiliary Reflector reflects light onto the areas that Exposure Lamp LA1 cannot illuminate when an original that does not lie flat on the Original Glass (such as a book) is being used. It functions to reduce shadows which would otherwise be transferred to the copy. The intensity of the light emitted by LA1 remains flat. The intensity is slightly attenuated at the very ends, which is corrected by the Intensity Correction Mirrors fitted on the front and rear ends of the Scanner. The four Aperture Plates regulate the amount of LA1 light illuminating the original surface. Exposure Lamp Thermal Fuse TF2 becomes electrically open (blows) if the temperature in the area surrounding the Main Reflector exceeds 128C, thus cutting off the circuit to LA1. The Main Reflector ensures that light from LA1 exposes all areas of the original. This copier uses a halogen frost lamp for Exposure Lamp LA1. Its light distribution characteristics keep the intensity of the light remaining flat.

9-3. Exposure Lamp Control

The voltage applied to Exposure Lamp LA1 is controlled by changing the
duty ratio of the pulse width of the Exposure Lamp Control signal (AVR PWM) output from Master Board PWB-A. For possible contamination of the Optical System and to incorporate any correction made in the grid voltage, the copier automatically varies the optimum intensity of the Exposure Lamp light and adjusts AE Sensor gain to ensure stabilized image quality. (See "6. IMAGE STABILIZATION SYSTEM.")

(1) Automatic Exposure Control <Overview> The copier is provided with the Auto Exposure mode in which the voltage applied to Exposure Lamp LA1 is automatically increased or decreased as necessary so that copies of consistent quality are produced regardless of whether, for example, the original has a dark background or is a pencil line drawing. AE Sensor Board PWB-H (beside the Lens) measures the intensity of the light reflected off the 3rd Mirror, which results in the black/white ratio of an area of 210 mm (W) 6 mm (L) of the original being measured. As the original is being scanned in the Auto Exposure mode, PWB-H senses the image density of the original (or the intensity of the light reflected) on a real-time basis. In this mode, the copier either increases or decreases the Exposure Lamp voltage according to the difference between the AE Sensor output and reference voltage during the period between when the Image Leading Edge signal (BASE) is output and when LA1 is turned OFF.

<Operation> Master Board PWB-A A pulse signal is sent from pin 17 (P50/TA1) of IC1A to light up LA1 for the center manual exposure setting (EXP5). A LOW Exposure Lamp ON signal is output from pin 49 (APA1) of IC4A.
Power Supply Unit PU2 The pulse signal is input to pin 3 of PJ19 and PU2 sets the Lamp voltage according to that signal.
LA1 turns ON. During the copy cycle, a LOW Image Leading Edge signal (BASE) is output and the automatic exposure control begins. AE Sensor Board PWB-H PD1H detects the intensity of the light striking it and PWB-H converts the light intensity to a corresponding voltage value, outputting it via pin 7 of IC1H. (The higher the intensity of the light striking PD1H, the lower the output voltage.)
Master Board PWB-A The analog voltage from PWB-H is input to pin 1 (AN0) of IC1A. PWB-A compares the input voltage with the reference voltage and increases the Lamp voltage if the input voltage is higher than the reference, and decreases it if the input is lower than the reference. This is accomplished by varying the duty ratio of the pulse signal output from pin 17 (P50/TA0) of IC1A.
* The reference voltage value varies depending on the "Auto Expo. Level"
setting of the Users Choice. It also depends on the optimum Exposure Lamp voltage under that setting.

(2) Manual Exposure Control When either one of the Exposure Control Keys on the control panel is pressed, it sets the copier into the Manual Exposure mode. In this mode, the copier permits the user to vary the Lamp voltage (i.e. the exposure level) in nine different steps. <Operation> Press the Exposure Control Key as necessary. Master Board PWB-A The exposure level data is sent from the control panel to IC1A via MSC Board PWB-B through MINET communications. The exposure level data is then converted in IC1A to a pulse signal and output from pin 17 (P50/TA0) of IC1A. A LOW Exposure Lamp ON signal is output from pin 49 (APA1) of IC4A. Power Supply Unit PU2 The pulse signal is input to pin 3 of PJ19. According to this signal, PU2 sets the Lamp voltage (which can be varied in nine steps according to the exposure setting.)
The intensity of the light emitted by Exposure Lamp LA1 becomes greater or smaller accordingly. (3) Exposure Lamp LA1 ON/OFF Control x Exposure Lamp ON Timing Exposure Lamp LA1 is turned ON T msec. after the PC Drum Charge Corona and Image Transfer Corona have been turned ON following the press of the Start Key. The Lamp ON timing varies for each different paper source. During a multi-copy cycle, LA1 is turned ON again approx. 90 msec. after it has been turned OFF. x Exposure Lamp OFF Timing LA1 is turned OFF approx. 243 msec. after the SCEND signal, which is being input to Master Board PWB-A from SCP Board PWB-J, has gone from HIGH to LOW.

9-4. Intensity Correction (1) Because of the nature of the Lens, the intensity of the Exposure Lamp light after passing through the Lens tends to be higher at the center and lower towards both ends. To solve this problem, there is a Lens Aperture Cover installed at the back of the Lens. It limits the amount of light at the center to ensure that an even amount of light strikes the surface of the PC Drum.
(2) When a zoom ratio is large, it results in the intensity of light striking the surface of the PC Drum decreasing. To correct the varying intensity of the light striking the surface of the PC Drum in different zoom ratios, the Lamp voltage is increased according to the set zoom ratio in the Manual Exposure mode and a correction is made for the AE Sensor input voltage to increase the Lamp voltage in the Auto Exposure mode.

9-6. Scanner Motor M2 Control <Overview> A DC servomotor is used for Scanner Motor M2. The pulse width modulation, or PWM, control is employed in which the average voltage is controlled by varying the width of the Scanner drive pulse which is the voltage input to the Motor. A photosensor and a pulse disk are built into M2. Their function is to convert the Motor shaft speed into the corresponding series of pulses. This pulse signal is input to SCP Board PWB-J. PWB-J then calculates the Motor speed using the period of the pulse signal applied to it and controls the Scanner drive pulse which is to be applied to the Motor. This effectively stabilizes the Motor speed. The pulse signal applied to PWB-J is also used to determine the distance over which the Scanner should travel. This distance is represented by the number of pulses corresponding to each paper size and zoom ratio.
M-35
<Scan/Return Switching and Braking of Scanner Motor M2> Scanner Motor M2 is turned forward to move the Scanner in the scan direction, turned backward to move the Scanner in the return direction, or braked by the Motor Forward and Motor Backward signals input from pins 13 and 15 of IC3J on SCP Board PWB-J. Details are as follows.

The brake control in the return motion is provided as follows, since M2
builds up its speed to the maximum level during the return motion. The Motor Backward signal is first alternated between HIGH and LOW states to reduce the input voltage to M2 to a low level. After M2 is decelerated to a given speed through this operation, the above brake control is performed.

The Motor is turned forward or backward by the pulse signals output from SCP Board PWB-J, thus moving the Lens in either the reduction or enlargement direction. When a zoom ratio is selected, pulse signals from PWB-J are input to the Lens Motor. The Motors shaft turns 7.5 per step, which is equivalent to approx. 0.2 mm of linear Lens movement.

In this copier, registration for the original is determined at the rear left
corner, while that for the PC Drum is at the front side. For this reason, there is a Lens Position Correction Cam that moves the Lens slantwise. The Lens Moving Plate moves linearly on a shaft, while the Lens Holder is movable on the Lens Moving Plate. The one roll of the Lens Holder is fitted in the groove of the Lens Position Correction Cam via slits in the Lens Moving Plate. This means that the Lens Holder moves along a curved trajectory which is drawn by the Lens Position Correction Cam, though the Lens Moving Plate makes a linear motion.

(2) Lens Reference Position Detection Lens Reference Position Sensor PC90 is used to detect the Lens at the reference position when the copier is turned ON. The Lens should be at the reference position when the Sensor output goes from LOW (enlargement side) to HIGH (reduction side). The Lens moves from this position a distance equivalent to the correction [Adjust Mode A-1 (Lens Full Size Position Adjustment)] to arrive at the full size position.
x Operation When Power is Turned ON When the Lens is located on the enlargement side (PC90 is LOW)
Lens Motor M6 turns forward to move the Lens in the reduction direction. M6 stops and starts turning backward when the PC90 output goes from

M6 stops turning when the PC90 output goes from LOW to HIGH. (The
Lens is now at the home position.)
The Scanner makes the initial motion. After the Scanner has completed the initial motion, M6 starts turning
backward to move the Lens in the enlargement direction.
After being driven 100 steps from when the PC90 output goes from
HIGH to LOW, M6 stops and starts turning forward.
After being driven 200 steps, M6 stops and starts turning backward. After being driven 32 steps from when the PC90 output goes from HIGH

To ensure that a focused image of the original is reproduced on the
surface of the PC Drum when in an enlargement or reduction mode, the distance between the original and the surface of the PC Drum (conjugation distance) must be greater than that when in the full size mode. To accomplish this, the 4th/5th Mirrors Carriage is moved in the direction of a greater conjugation distance (+ direction). The 4th/5th Mirrors Carriage is moved by the rack gear fitted to the 4th/5th Mirrors Guide Plate, which is in mesh with the pinion gear. Mirror Motor M7 gives drive to this pinion gear. M7 is a two-phase stepping motor. The Motor is turned forward or backward by the pulse signals output from SCP Board PWB-J, thus moving the Carriage in the required direction. When a zoom ratio is selected, pulse signals from PWB-J are input to M7. The Motors shaft turns 7.5 per step, which is equivalent to approx. 0.09 mm of linear Mirrors Carriage movement.

10-2. Original Size Detecting Sensors (PC115 to PC119) 10-2-1. Construction of Each Sensor
The original size detecting sensors determine the distance between the
sensor and the original, which enables the detection of originals with high image density (Original density up to 0.6). All sensors are fixed to the Optical Base Plate, enhancing measuring accuracy. A movable sensor had a problem of false detection due to its position being moved. Each sensor has two LEDs and one photo receiver (PSD). Since the CD (crosswise) sensors (PC115, 119) are installed at a height different from FD (feeding-direction) sensors (PC116, 117, 118), each type has a different setting distance as detailed below.

PC111 remains deactivated. UN2 determines the original size based on the combination of the output data from the original size detecting sensors. UN2 divides the original size data into two parts and transmits 4-bit parallel data to Master Board PWB-A approx. every 73 msec. PWB-A combines the 4-bit original size data back into 8-bit data and stores it in memory.
The Original Cover is lowered to an angle less than 15. * PC111 is activated. The Original Cover is completely lowered. * The magnets fitted to the Original Cover actuate Size Reset Switch S108.
The original size data is latched when PC111 is activated and the original size is set.
The copier selects the appropriate paper size based on the set original size data and selects the paper source loaded with paper of that size, with the paper size indicated on the control panel (when in the Auto Paper or Size mode). If the copier is unable to find the target paper size, it lights up the Add Paper Indicator. The set original size data and selected paper size are reset.
The Original Cover is raised to an angle less than 15 * S108 is deactuated. * PC111 remains activated. The Original Cover is raised to an angle more than 15. * PC111 is deactivated.
The copier proceeds with the next original size detection sequence.
* If the Start Key is pressed with the Original Cover raised (PC111 is
deactivated and S108 deactuated), UN2 transmits the original size data available when the Start Key is pressed to Master Board PWB-A for the selection of the paper size.

12-4. Magnetic Pole Positioning

The Magnet Roller of the Sleeve/Magnet Roller of this copier has the
following magnetic characteristics. N1

Pole Having Weak Magnetic Force
: The principal magnetic pole having the strongest magnetic flux density. Therefore, when toner is attracted to the latent image, the carrier is firmly held onto the Sleeve Roller.
S1, N2: The height of the developer brush is held low so that the developer can be smoothly recycled. These poles also prevent the developer from scattering. N3
Uncovered Surface Areas of Weak Magnetic Force
: This pole causes the developer bristles on the surface of the Sleeve Roller to stand up straight so that their height will be regulated evenly by the Doctor Blade. : Since the gap between N3 and N1 is wide, this pole ensures that the developer is positively conveyed to the point of development. : This pole provides a very weak magnetic force. If developer is compacted and clogs at the Doctor Blade and, as a result, part of the surfaces of the Sleeve/Magnet Roller is not covered with developer, the nearby developer around S2b goes to those uncovered surfaces because of its weak magnetic force. This helps prevent blank lines from occurring on the copy.

Since the Developing Unit and PC Drum are housed in the PC Unit in this
copier, the Magnet Roller has been made movable: the Bushing is pressed by compression springs thereby pressing the Positioning Collars on both ends of the Magnet Roller against the PC Drum. This ensures a given distance between the PC Drum and the Sleeve/Magnet Roller.

12-5. Developing Bias

A negative voltage (Vb = Developing Bias voltage) is applied to the Sleeve
Roller to prevent a foggy background on the copy. The amount of toner attracted onto the surface of the PC Drum depends on how much lower the PC Drum surface potential (Vi) is than Vb (i.e., the potential difference). Because the Magnet Roller of this copier is movable, a flat spring is fitted to the Bias Terminal, allowing the Bias Terminal to follow the movement of the Magnet Roller.

12-6. ATDC Sensor

x ATDC Sensor ATDC Sensor UN4 installed on the underside of the Developer Mixing
Chamber detects the varying toner-to-carrier ratio of the developer, which is circulated by the Developer Conveying Screw, as changes in the magnetic flux density. The magnetic flux density is converted to a corresponding voltage value which is applied to the analog port of IC1A on Master Board PWB-A. IC1A compares the ATDC Sensor output voltage with the reference voltage for 6% toner-to-carrier ratio [which can be varied by the ATDC Detection Level Mode (Tech. Rep. Choice SCH-90)] to control toner replenishment.
x ATDC Sensor Automatic Adjustment/Detection Circuit The sensitivity of the ATDC Sensor is automatically adjusted to the
starter with a 6% T/C when the F8 test operation is run after fresh starter has been loaded.
Pin 1 of IC23A outputs an initial voltage when the F8 operation is started.
The output voltage from the ATDC Sensor is applied to Analog Port AN1 of IC1A. IC1A checks to see whether the voltage input to it is 2.5 V. The voltage is 2.5 V. The voltage is NOT 2.5 V.
The output voltage from pin 1 of IC23A is fixed as the reference voltage.
The ATDC Sensor sensitivity is adjusted to the initial starter T/C (6%).
The output voltage from pin 1 of IC23A is varied. The voltage is decreased if the input voltage is 2.5 V or more. The voltage is increased if the input voltage is less than 2.5 V.
The Sensor output voltage applied to IC1A is compared with the reference voltage (2.5 V SCH-90 setting) and, if it is higher than the reference, Sub Hopper Toner Replenishing Motor M9 is energized.

x ATDC Sensor Control Sequence
The ATDC Sensor reads the toner-to-carrier ratio data at the following
timing to provide the basis for toner replenishing control: The ATDC Sensor takes the reading for a 500-msec. period at 5-msec. intervals 20 msec. after a LOW Image Leading Edge signal (BASE) from SCP Board PWB-J has been input to Master Board PWB-A for each copy made.
The mean value of the readings sampled is compared with the voltage
(target value) corresponding to the T/C set by SCH-90 and the result is classified as follows: a) The mean value is lower than the target value and represents a T/C ratio that is higher than the set ratio by 1% or more. b) The mean value is lower than the target value and represents a T/C ratio that is higher than the set ratio by less than 1%. c) The mean value is higher than the target value and represents a T/C ratio that is lower than the set ratio by less than 0.5%. d) The mean value is higher than the target value and represents a T/C ratio that is lower than the set ratio by 0.5% or more.

12-7. Sub Hopper Toner Replenishing Mechanism/Control

Toner supplied from the Main Hopper is temporarily kept in the Sub Hopper
before being fed to the Developing Unit. This is done to stabilize replenishing of toner and detection of a toner-empty condition. The toner replenishing time (the period of time during which Sub Hopper Toner Replenishing Motor M9 is kept energized) is determined according to the ATDC Sensor output level (which varies in three steps). After the ATDC Sensor detection

M9 is kept energized for a given period of time. [A LOW Remote signal is output from pin 50 (APA2) of IC4A on PWB-A.] Gear A mounted on the M9 shaft is turned counterclockwise. Gear C is turned counterclockwise via Gear B. The Toner Conveying Screw turns counterclockwise, causing toner to fall into the Toner Supply Port through the Toner Supply Hole. The Toner Mixing Screw then conveys the toner fallen onto it to the rear end of the Developing Unit.

12-8. Sub Hopper Toner Empty Detecting Mechanism/Control

A toner-empty condition of the Sub Hopper is detected by the magnet fitted
to the Sub Hopper Toner Empty Detecting Lever and Sub Hopper Toner Empty Switch S106. The S106 ON signal is used to energize Main Hopper Toner Replenishing Motor M8. <Mechanism> The Sub Hopper Toner Empty Detecting Lever rides over the eccentric cam installed at the rear end of the Sub Hopper Toner Mixing Lever. When drive from M9 is transmitted to the Sub Hopper Toner Mixing Lever, the Toner Empty Detecting Lever is moved up and down.
When the amount of toner in the Sub Hopper remains more than the
predetermined level: Since the Toner Empty Detecting Lever is on the Toner, it does not make an up-and-down motion, keeping S106 deactuated. Hence, the copier does not determine that toner is empty. When the amount of toner in the Sub Hopper is less than the predetermined level: The Toner Empty Detecting Lever is moved up and down by the eccentric cam, which repeatedly actuates and deactuates S106. When S106 is turned on continuously more than 10 times, the copier determines that toner is empty in the Sub Hopper.

<Control> Toner Empty Detection Control The Sub Hopper toner empty detection sequence is carried out while Sub Hopper Toner Replenishing Motor M9 remains energized. Sub Hopper Toner Empty Switch S106 is actuated. Master Board PWB-A A LOW Sub Hopper Toner Empty signal is input to pin 57 (APB1) of IC4A. Main Hopper Toner Replenishing Motor M8 is energized to turn the Toner Bottle one turn, thus replenishing toner from the Main Hopper to Sub Hopper. A toner-empty condition is detected at the timing at which M9 is next energized. The above operations are repeated and, if the Sub Hopper Toner Empty signal does not go LOW even after the Toner Bottle has been turned ten turns, the Toner Bottle is not turned again. The copier determines that there is a toner-empty condition in the Sub Hopper, lighting up the Add Toner Indicator on the control panel.
Control After Toner Empty Detection
The Front Door is swung down, Toner Bottle replaced, and the Front Door closed. Master Board PWB-A M8 is energized to turn continuously the Toner Bottle so that toner is supplied from the Main Hopper to Sub Hopper. M9 is energized once and kept so for approx. 1.7 seconds for every three turns of the Toner Bottle. The Sub Hopper toner empty detection sequence is carried out a maximum eight times. As soon as the signal from S106 goes HIGH, M8 is deenergized to stop the Toner Bottle. The Add Toner Indicator on the control panel goes out.

When Sub Hopper Toner Empty Switch S106 is actuated, it energizes Main
Hopper Toner Replenishing Motor M8 to turn the Toner Bottle one turn, thereby supplying toner from the Main Hopper to Sub Hopper. <Mechanism> Main Hopper Toner Replenishing Motor M8 is energized. The Home Position Detecting Plate on the M8 shaft is turned and, at the same time, the Coupling is turned. Since the two pins on the Toner Bottle fit into the slots in the Coupling, the Coupling and Toner Bottle are turned together. When the indentation on the Toner Bottle moves past the protrusion on the Toner Bottle Holder, the Toner Bottle is vibrated to prevent some of the toner from remaining unconsumed in the Bottle. Since the Toner Supply Port in the Toner Bottle is aligned with the Toner Supply Hole in the Coupling, toner in the Toner Bottle drops down as the Supply Hole becomes located at the bottom.

12-10. Swinging Out/In the Main Hopper

To replace an empty Toner Bottle, the user first needs to swing the Toner
Bottle Holder out 40 to the front. There is a flat spring installed on the Sub Hopper Holder, which causes the Toner Bottle Holder to click out of, and into, the locked position. The Holder pivots about the Toner Supply Port as it is swung out or in, which effectively prevents toner from spilling when the Holder is swung out or in. The Coupling is provided with a locking mechanism that prevents the Toner Bottle from turning when it is removed or installed. <When the Toner Bottle Holder is in Position> Since the flat spring fits into the front ^ notch of the Toner Bottle Holder, the Holder is locked in position. At this time, the bottom of the Coupling Lock Lever is pushed in by a part () of the Sub Hopper, keeping the Coupling free.

13-2. Paper Take-Up Roll
Both for the 1st and 2nd Drawers, the Paper Take-Up Roll is semicircular
with the circular part of the Roll turned to the top at times other than take-up. This prevents paper from being caught by the Roll when the Drawer is slid out of the copier. Each drawer has two Paper Take-Up Rolls. The position of the rear Paper Take-Up Roll must be changed according to the size of the paper loaded in the drawer. (For details of Roll positions, see "DIS/REASSEMBLY, ADJUSTMENT.") The Paper Take-Up Roll is grooved to keep good friction even under heavy loading. A small roll is built into one edge of the take-up Portion of the Roll. It reduces stress otherwise applied to the paper as the Paper Take-Up Roll hits against the paper. Drive for the Paper Take-Up Rolls comes from Main Drive Motor M1 via the timing belt and gear train. The Paper Take-Up Solenoid (1st Drawer: SL2; 2nd Drawer: SL3) and Spring Clutch control the turning of the Paper Take-Up Rolls.

The Paper Take-Up Sensor (1st Drawer: PC56; 2nd Drawer: PC57) detects a sheet of paper which has been taken up from the Drawer. Here is the control timing chart. <Feeding 3 Sheets of Paper>

13-3-2. Paper Take-Up Retry Control To minimize occurrence of paper misfeed due to a slippery Paper Take-Up Roll, the Paper Take-Up Solenoid is energized a second time if a sheet of paper fails to reach the Paper Take-Up Sensor within 1,325 msec. after the Solenoid has first been energized. (This is called the paper take-up retry function.) A paper misfeed results if a sheet of paper does not reach the Paper Take-Up Sensor even after two paper take-up sequences. Here is the control timing chart.

13-3-3. Double Feed Control Even if the Paper Take-Up Rolls take up two sheets of paper at one time, the double feed control uses the second sheet of paper for the next copy cycle without causing a paper misfeed. It eliminates a paper misfeed that would otherwise result when two sheets of paper are taken up at once. If the second sheet of paper is stationary, keeping the Paper Take-Up Sensor (1st Drawer: PC56; 2nd Drawer: PC57) activated, when the trailing edge of the first sheet of paper moves past Transport Roller Sensor PC54, the copier determines that it is a double feed condition and provides double feed control. If, however, the second sheet of paper has reached the Vertical Transport Roller (paper feeding from the 1st Drawer: Upper; paper feeding from the 2nd Drawer: Lower), the double feed control is not provided since the paper is fed further into the copier by the Vertical Transport Roller. This could result in a paper misfeed or the second sheet of paper being fed through the copier with the first one. If double feed control is provided, it results in the paper take-up interval timer becoming longer. That means longer intervals between two successive paper take-up motions, resulting in a decreased cpm (productivity).

13-5. Paper Separating Mechanism Each drawer has Fingers that function to separate the top sheet of paper from the rest of the paper stack at paper take-up. The Fingers are fitted to the right front and rear corners of the drawer. When the Paper Take-Up Rolls start turning to take up the top sheet of paper, their turning force is directly transmitted to the top sheet of paper as it is in direct contact with the Paper Take-Up Rolls. That force overcomes the block of the Fingers, causing the top sheet of paper to ride over the Fingers and be fed out of the drawer into the copier. As to the second sheet of paper, the paper transport force obtained through friction with the top sheet of paper is weak and does not allow the second sheet of paper to ride over the block of the Fingers. Hence, the second sheet of paper remains stationary with the rest of the paper stack in the drawer. When there are two sheets of paper left in the drawer, the bottom sheet can be fed with the top one if the friction of the Paper Lifting Plate is weak. The Friction Plate affixed to the Paper Lifting Plate prevents this from happening.

13-6. Paper Empty Detection When the drawer runs out of paper, the Actuator for the Paper Empty Sensor drops into the cutout in the Paper Lifting Plate. This activates the Paper Empty Sensor and the copier will know that the drawer has run out of paper. The Paper Lifting Plate is raised at all times by the Paper Lifting Springs. To prevent the Actuator for the Paper Empty Sensor (1st Drawer: PC101; 2nd Drawer: PC102) from being caught by the paper stack when the drawer is slid out of the copier, therefore, it is tilted slightly. This, however, results in the operating stroke of the Actuator becoming small, which increases the possibility of the Actuator activating the Sensor by the flexing of a sheet of paper as it is taken up and fed in. To prevent this false detection of a paper-empty condition, the paper empty detection is enabled only when the Paper Take-Up Rolls are in the retracted position.

13-8-5. Manual Bypass Paper Separating Mechanism The paper separating mechanism ensures that only the top sheet of paper is fed in by separating the second sheet of paper from the top one. This is accomplished by the Torque Limiter fitted to the Separator Roll shaft which stops the Separator Roll when there is a change in friction between the Feed and Separator Rolls. 1. At the Time of Double Feed: The top sheet of paper is fed into the copier by the Feed Roll. Since the coefficient of friction between the top and second sheets of paper is smaller than that between the second sheet of paper and the Separator Roll, the two sheets of paper slip and the second sheet of paper is not fed into the copier. The driving force of the Feed Roll is at this time neutralized by the two slipping sheets of paper and not transmitted to the Separator Roll which is stopped by its Torque Limiter. In other words, the force of the Torque Limiter is greater than the driving force of the Feed Roll as it is transmitted through the two sheets of paper.
Feed Roll
Separator Roll * Stationary in this condition.
2. Normal Feeding: The friction coefficient on the top side of the paper is equivalent to that on the underside. Hence, the driving force of the Feed Roll is directly transmitted to the Separator Roll through the paper, causing the Separator Roll to be turned by the Feed Roll. In other words, the force of the Torque Limiter is smaller than the driving force of the Feed Roll as it is transmitted through the paper.

13-8-6. Manual Bypass Paper Empty Detection The Manual Bypass Table is equipped with Manual Feed Paper Empty Sensor PC51 which detects a sheet of paper on the Multi Bypass Table.

Synchronizing Roller Drive Control The Synchronizing Rollers are started as Synchronizing Roller Clutch CL2 is energized upon reception of a signal from Master Board PWB-A as shown in the circuit diagram below. The start of the Rollers is synchronized with the Registration signal (TRON). The TRON signal is output from SCP Board PWB-J at a given time after the Image leading Edge signal (BASE) has been output. The BASE signal is output when the Scanner reaches a given point in its scan motion. (For detailed timings of the TRON and BASE signals, see "8. OPTICAL SECTION.") The Synchronizing Rollers are stopped at a given time after the paper has moved past Paper Leading Edge Detecting Sensor PC55. Here is the drive timing of the Synchronizing Rollers.

15-4. Prevention of Low Image Density on Copy During conditions of high humidity when the paper is damp, charges would tend to flow from the Image Transfer Corona through the paper and guide plates to the ground. This results in low image density on the copies. To prevent this from occurring, a plastic spacer is installed between the copier frame and each guide plate around the Synchronizing Rollers so that it remains insulated. Instead of using the plastic spacer, an electrodeposition coating has been applied to some of those guide plates. If, however, the resistance with the ground is made infinity, the guide plate would build up charges and a spark can occur with other guide plates, resulting in a malfunction. To prevent this, an 82-megohm resistor and a 1-kV varistor are connected to the guide plates. The guide plates are connected by flat springs as illustrated below.

16-2. Description of Image Transfer and Paper Separation Image Transfer The Image Transfer Corona applies a DC negative corona emission to the underside of the paper thereby attracting the positively charged toner onto the surface of the paper to form a visible, developed image of the original. The Corona Unit is provided with a Corona Wire cleaning mechanism: the operator has only to pull out the lever on which the Cleaner is mounted from the front of the copier, which cleans the Wire. The mylar strips affixed to the housing of the Image Transfer Corona minimize current that flows to the housing, thereby reducing the amount of ozone that is produced. Paper Separation The Paper Separator Corona showers the underside of the paper with both positive and negative charges so that the paper can be easily separated from the PC Drum. In addition, two Paper Separator Fingers physically peel the paper off the surface of the PC Drum. (For details, see "PC Drum Paper Separator Fingers.") Note: The Image Transfer/Paper Separator Coronas Unit is provided with a Pre-Image Transfer Guide Plate that determines the angle at which the paper comes into contact with the PC Drum and keeps an optimum distance between the paper and the PC Drum so that the image may be properly transferred onto the paper. Note: The Image Transfer/Paper Separator Coronas Unit and Image Transfer/Paper Separator Coronas Unit Rail are insulated from the copier body. In addition, a 3.5-megohm resistor is connected to the unit rail. This improves the charge application efficiency from the Coronas Unit to the PC Drum and economizes on the output current from High Voltage Unit HV1.
M-105
16-3. Ozone Filter Ozone produced by the Image Transfer/Paper Separator Coronas is absorbed by the Ozone Filter on the back of the copier. It is absorbed from the air being drawn out of the copier through the Duct under the Suction Deck by Suction Fan Motor M4. In this copier, this Ozone Filter absorbs ozone produced by not only the Image Transfer/Paper Separator Coronas but also the PC Drum Charge Corona.

(Data is transferred between the Cabinet and copier through serial communication.) When the Toner Collecting Box is changed from the standard to large capacity type, Key 2 of DIP Switch S1 on Master Board PWB-A of the copier should be switched to ON. This enables the copier to detect the Large Capacity Toner Collecting Box. The combination in which S1-2, PC107, PC31 are ON or OFF determines how the copier regards the current situation. See below.

17-5. AIDC Sensor To provide image stabilization control, this copier has AIDC Sensor UN3 fitted to the Cleaning Unit of the PC Unit. The sensor is used to detect the toner density and background level on the PC Drum. The copier checks to see if the detection level of UN3 is up to the target level and corrects, as necessary, the PC Drum Charge Corona voltage (Vg) and Exposure Lamp level. For more details, see "IMAGE STABILIZATION SYSTEM." Operation 1: The UN3s LED projects approx. 940-nm infrared light onto the surface of the PC Drum. 2: The UN3s phototransistor detects the amount of light reflected back. 3: The phototransistor outputs a voltage corresponding to the intensity of the light reflected back. Shown below is the relationship between the toner density on the PC Drum and Phototransistor output.

20-6. Fusing Temperature Control <Overview> Fusing Front Thermistor TH1 and Fusing Rear Thermistor TH2 detect changes in the surface temperature of the Upper Fusing Roller at its front and rear ends. The Thermistors input the corresponding analog voltages to pins 78 (TH1) and 77 (TH2) of IC1A on Master Board PWB-A so that PWB-A can control the surface temperature of the Upper Fusing Roller. TH1 is usually used to provide 185C temperature control. TH2 is provided to monitor the temperature at the rear that could rise when paper of a small size is fed through the copier. Both thermistors are located where paper of a small size does not move past.

22 TOTAL COUNTER
22-1. Total Counter CT1 Total Counter CT1 is installed on the right side panel of the copier. It counts the number of sheets of paper that have been fed through the copier or the number of copy cycles that have been completed. Note: The count-up conditions can be set using the Tech. Rep. mode. For details, see "SWITCHES ON PWBs."

22-2. Detection of Total Counter in Position This copier is designed to detect a Total Counter placed in position. It ensures that the copier can keep track of its usage by eliminating the possibility of a copy cycle being run without the Total Counter being in position. As shown in the circuit diagram below, the copier inhibits the initiation of a new copy cycle if it continuously detects a Total Counter out of position for a 400-msec. period. At this time, the copier keeps the Start Key blinking, warning the operator that the Total Counter is not in position. 22-3. CT1 Count-Up The signal from IC1A on Master Board PWB-A turns ON Transistors Q1A and Q13A under the following conditions, which results in CT1 counting up. See the circuit diagram below. * The trailing edge of the copy moves past Paper Exit Switch S53. * The trailing edge of the copy moves past the Sorter Exit Sensor of the Sorter if the copier is equipped with a Sorter. * When a copy is to be stored in the Duplex Unit in a 2-sided copying mode, the trailing edge of the copy moves past the Duplex Paper Entry Sensor of the Duplex Unit.

24 MEMORY BACKUP
IC1 (RAM) of RAM Board PWB-R connected to Master Board PWB-A stores the setting/adjustment values set in the Tech. Rep. modes as well as the counter counts. Backup Battery BAT1 is mounted on PWB-R to prevent the contents of memory from being lost when the power cord is unplugged or PWB-R removed from the copier. BAT1 requires a voltage of 2 V or more to retain the contents of memory. Important As noted above, the RAM stores critical data. If PWB-R has been replaced with a new one, memory must first be cleared and then all settings be made again. It should also be noted that PWB-R should not be replaced at the same time when PWB-A is replaced.

1 SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
1-1. PRECAUTIONS FOR DISASSEMBLY/ADJUSTMENTS
Observe the following precautions whenever servicing the copier.
Be sure to unplug the copier from the outlet before attempting to service the copier. The basic rule is not to operate the copier anytime during disassembly.
If it is absolutely necessary to run the copier with its covers removed, use care not to allow your clothing to be caught in revolving parts such as the Timing Belt and gears. Be sure to use the Interlock Switch Actuating Jig whenever it is necessary to actuate the Interlock Switch with the covers left open or removed. Do not plug in or unplug print jacks on the Board or connect or disconnect the Board connectors while power is being supplied to the copier. Do not use flammable spray around the copier in operation. The Magnet Roller of the Imaging Unit generates strong magnetic force. Do not bring it near a cathode-ray tube or watch. A used lithium cell should be disposed of according to the local regulations and never be discarded casually or left unattended at the users premises. Do not use an air gun or vacuum cleaner for cleaning the ATDC Sensor and other sensors, as they can cause electrostatic destruction. Use a blower brush and cloth. If a unit containing these sensors is to be cleaned, first remove the sensors from the unit. When handling the PWBs with MOS ICs, observe "1-2. Instructions for Handling the PWBs with MOS ICs." When handling the PC Drum, observe precautions given in "1-3. Handling of the PC Drum." Note that replacement of a PWB may call for readjustments or resetting of particular items. Use the right screw in the right place at reassembly. Note that some are longer and some are thicker than others. A toothed washer is used with the screw that secures the ground wire to ensure positive conduction. Do not forget to insert this washer at reassembly. To reassemble the copier, reverse the order of disassembly unless otherwise specified. If it becomes necessary to replace the thermal fuse or any other fuse mounted on a board, be sure to use one of the rating marked on the blown fuse. Always note the rating marked on the fuse, as the rating and mounting site or number used are subject to change without notice. Do not pull out the Toner Hopper while the Toner Bottle is turning, as a damaged Toner Replenishing Motor or locking mechanism could result. If the copier is to be run with the Front Door swung down, make sure that the Toner Hopper is in the locked position.
CAUTION: DANGER OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS INCORRECTLY REPLACED. REPLACE ONLY WITH THE SAME OR EQUIVALENT TYPE RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER. DISCARD USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURERS INSTRUCTIONS.
ADVARSEL!: Lithiumbatteri - Eksplosionsfare ved fejlagtig hndtering. Udskiftning m kun ske med batteri af samme fabrikat og type. Levr det brugte batteri tilbage til leverandren.

1-2. INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING THE PWBs WITH MOS ICs

The following precautions must be observed when handling P.W. Boards with MOS (Metal Oxide Semiconductor) ICs. During Transportation/Storage: During transportation or when in storage, new P.W. Boards must not be indiscriminately removed from their protective conductive bags. Do not store or place P.W. Boards in a location exposed to direct sunlight. When it becomes absolutely necessary to remove a Board from its conductive bag or case, always place it on its conductive mat in an area as free as possible from static electricity. Do not touch the pins of the ICs with your bare hands. During Replacement: Before unplugging connectors from the P.W. Boards, make sure that the power cord has been unplugged from the outlet. When removing a Board from its conductive bag or conductive case, do not touch the pins of the ICs or the printed pattern. Place it in position by holding only the edges of the Board. Before plugging connectors into the Board, make sure that the power cord has been unplugged from the power outlet. During Inspection: Avoid checking the IC directly with a multimeter; use connectors on the Board. Never create a closed circuit across IC pins with a metal tool. When it is absolutely necessary to touch the ICs and other electrical components on the Board, be sure to ground your body.
1-3. HANDLING OF THE PC DRUM

During Transportation/Storage: Use the specified carton whenever moving or storing the PC Drum. The storage temperature is in the range between 20C and +40C. In summer, avoid leaving the PC Drum in a car for a long time. Handling: Ensure that the correct PC Drum is used. Whenever the PC Drum has been removed from the copier, store it in its Container or protect it with a Drum Cloth. The PC Drum exhibits greatest light fatigue after being exposed to strong light over an extended period of time. Never, therefore, expose it to direct sunlight. Use care not to contaminate the surface of the PC Drum with oilbase solvent, fingerprints, and other foreign matter. Do not scratch the surface of the PC Drum. Do not apply chemicals to the surface of the PC Drum. Do not attempt to wipe clean the surface of the PC Drum unless its surface is contaminated with fingerprints.
D-2
If the surface is contaminated with fingerprints, clean it using the following procedure. 1. Place the PC Drum into one half its container.
2. Gently wipe the residual toner off the surface of the PC Drum with a dry, dust-free cotton pad. a) Rotate the PC Drum so that the area of its surface on which the line of toner left by the Cleaning Blade is present is facing staright up. Wipe the surface in one continuous movement from the rear edge of the PC Drum to the front edge and off the surface of the PC Drum. b) Rotate the PC Drum sligh6tly and wipe the newly exposed surface area with a clean face of the dust-free cotton pad. Repeat this procedure until the entire surface of the PC Drum has been thoroughly cleaned. * Always use a clean face of the dry dust-free cotton pad until no toner is evident on the face of the pad after wiping. 3. Soak a small amount of either ethyl alcohol or isopropyl alcohol into a clean, unused dust-free cotton pad which is folded over into quarters. Now, wipe the surface of the PC Drum in one continuous movement from its rear edge to its front edge and off its surface one to two times. * Never move the pad back and forth.
4. Using the same face of the pad, repeat the procedure explained in the latter half of step 3 until the entire surface of the PC Drum is wiped. Always overlap the areas when wiping. Two complete turns of the PC Drum would be appropriate for cleaning.
NOTES
The Organic Photoconductor Drum is softer than CdS and Selenium Drums and is therefore susceptible to scratches. Even when the PC Drum is only locally dirtied, wipe the entire surface. Do not expose the PC Drum to direct sunlight. Clean it as quickly as possible even under interior illumination. If dirt remains after cleaning, repeat the entire procedure from the beginning one more time.

1 PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING THE PWBs

1-1. Precautions for Transportation and Storage
a) Before transporting or storing the PWBs, put them in protective conductive cases or bags so that they are not subjected to high temperature (they are not exposed to direct sunlight). b) Protect the PWBs from any external force so that they are not bent or damaged. c) Once the PWB has been removed from its conductive case or bag, never place it directly on an object that is easily charged with static electricity (carpet, plastic bags, etc.). d) Do not touch the parts and printed patterns on the PWBs with bare hands.
1-2. Precautions for Replacement/Inspection

a) Whenever replacing the PWB, make sure that the power cord of the copier has been unplugged. b) When the power is on, the connectors must not be plugged in or unplugged. c) Use care not to strap the pins of an IC with a metal tool. d) When touching the PWB, wear a wrist strap and connect its cord to a securely grounded place whenever possible. If you cannot wear a wrist strap, touch the metal part before touching the PWB to discharge static electricity.

1 INTRODUCTION
1-1. General Precautions
1. When servicing the copier with its covers removed, use utmost care to prevent your hands, clothing, and tools from being caught in revolving parts including the chains and gears. When servicing the copier with the Lower Rear Cover removed, be sure to install the jig. 2. Before attempting to replace parts and unplugging connectors, make sure that the power cord of the copier has been unplugged from the wall outlet. 3. Never create a closed circuit across connector pins except those specified in the text and on the printed circuit. 4. When creating a closed circuit and measuring a voltage across connector pins specified in the text, be sure to use the green wire (GND). 5. When the user is using a word processor or personal computer from the wall outlet of the same line, take necessary steps to prevent the circuit breaker from opening due to overloads. 6. Keep all disassembled parts in good order and keep tools under control so that none will be lost or damaged.
1-2. How to Use This Book

1. If a component on a PWB or any other functional unit including a motor is defective, the text only instructs you to replace the whole PWB or functional unit and does not give troubleshooting procedure applicable within the defective unit. 2. All troubleshooting procedures contained herein assume that there are no breaks in the harnesses and cords and all connectors are plugged into the right positions. 3. For the removal procedures of covers and parts, see DIS/REASSEMBLY, ADJUSTMENT. 4. The troubleshooting procedures are given in the order of greater frequency of trouble or order of operation. 5. The procedures preclude possible malfunctions due to noise and other external causes.
1-3. Reading the Text

1. The paper transport failure troubleshooting procedures are given according to the symptom. First identify the location where the paper is present and start the procedure for that particular location. For malfunction troubleshooting, start with step 1 and onward. 2. Make checks in numerical order of the steps and, if an item is checked okay, go to the next step.
Pattern 1 Step Check Item 1 2 Is --? Result YES Action Do this.
Pattern 2 Step Check Item 1 Is --? Result YES NO 2 Action Do this. Check that.
Go to step 2 if it checks okay.

3. Methed for Checking Control Parts with Loads To check the Control parts with loads easier and safer, this copier allows the Technical Representative to determine whether a control part is fully operational and signals are input and output properly by changing or checking the I/O port data of the board IC with the copier in the standby state (including where a misfeed or malfunction condition exists). Procedure 1) On the circuit diagram accompanying the text, locate the I/O port of the control part which is probably faulty when a misfeed or malfunction occurs. 2) Select the function "Port" of "I/O Check" of the Tech. Rep. mode and show on the Message Display the screen containing the ports identified in step 1 above. (See SWITCHES ON PWBs.) NOTE: Some paper path sensors can be checked by the function "Paper Path Sensor" of "I/O Check." 3) Change or check the input or output port data to check that the control part is operational and signals are input and output properly. 4) If the control part does not operate after the output port data has been changed, select "Control Board" of "I/O Check" and determine whether the cause of the problem is the board or any other functional unit. NOTE:The output ports that can be checked by "Control Board" of "I/O Check" of the Tech. Rep. mode are only those given on p. T-63.
