2 PRECAUTIONS FOR INSTALLATION


J Installation Site
To ensure safety and utmost performance of the copier, the copier should NOT be used in a place: F Where it will be subjected to extremely high or low temperature or humidity. F Which is exposed to direct sunlight. F Which is in the direct air stream of an air conditioner, heater or ventilator. F Which puts the operator in the direct stream of exhaust from the copier. F Which has poor ventilation. F Where ammonia gas might be generated. F Which does not have a stable, level floor. F Where it will be subjected 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. F Which is near any kind of heating device. F Where it may be splashed with water. F Which is dirty or where it will receive undue vibration. F Which is near volatile flammables or curtains.

J Power Source
Use an outlet with a capacity of 115/120/127V, 1480W or more, or 220-240V, 1550W or more. F If any other electrical equipment is sourced from the same power outlet, make sure that the capacity of the outlet is not exceeded. F Use a power source with little voltage fluctuation. F Never connect by means of a multiple socket any other appliances or machines to the outlet being used for the copier. F Make the following checks at frequent intervals: D Is the power plug abnormally hot? D Are there any cracks or scrapes in the cord? D Has the power plug been inserted fully into the outlet? D Does something, including the copier itself, ride on the power cord? F 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.

J Grounding
To prevent receiving electrical shocks in the case of electrical leakage, always ground the copier. F Connect the grounding wire to: D The ground terminal of the outlet. D A grounding contact which complies with the local electrical standards. F Never connect the grounding wire to a gas pipe, the grounding wire for a telephone, or a water pipe.

3 PRECAUTIONS FOR USE


To ensure that the copier is used in an optimum condition, observe the following precautions. F Never place a heavy object on the copier or subject the copier to shocks. F Insert the power plug all the way into the outlet. F Do not attempt to remove any panel or cover which is secured while the copier is making copies. F Do not turn OFF the Power Switch while the copier is making copies. F Provide good ventilation when making a large number of copies continuously. F Never use flammable sprays near the copier. F If the copier becomes inordinately hot or produces abnormal noise, turn it OFF and unplug it. F Do not turn ON the Power Switch at the same time when you plug the power cord into the outlet. F When unplugging the power cord, do not pull on the cord; hold the plug and pull it out. F Do not bring any magnetized object near the copier. F Do not place a vase or vessel containing water on the copier. F Be sure to turn OFF the Power Switch at the end of the workday or upon power failure. F Use care not to drop paper clips, staples, or other small pieces of metal into the copier.

J Operating Environment
The operating environmental requirements of the copier are as follows. D Temperature: 10C to 30C with a fluctuation of 10C per hour D Humidity: 15% to 85% RH with a fluctuation of 10% RH per hour

J Power Requirements
The power source voltage requirements are as follows. D Voltage Fluctuation: AC115/120/127/220-240V "10% (Copying performance assured) )6%, 10% (Only AC 127V) 15% (Paper feeding performance assured) D Frequency Fluctuation: 50/60 Hz "0.3%

4 HANDLING OF THE CONSUMABLES


Before using any consumables, always read the label on its container carefully. F Use the right toner. The applicable copier model name is indicated on the Toner Bottle. F Paper can 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. F Keep consumables out of the reach of children. F Do not touch the PC Drum with bare hands. F Store the paper, toner, and other consumables in a place free from direct sunlight and away from any heating apparatus. F 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. F If your hands become soiled with toner, wash them with soap and water immediately. F 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.).

The PC Drum Charge Corona Unit is equipped with a Comb Electrode and a Scorotron Grid to deposit a uniform negative charge across the entire surface of the PC Drum. (For more details, see 9. DRUM CHARGING.)

3. Image Erase
Any areas of charge which are not to be developed are neutralized by lighting up LEDs. (For more details, see 10. IMAGE ERASE LAMP.)

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 11. OPTICAL SECTION.)

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 13. DEVELOPMENT.)

6. Paper Feeding
Paper is fed either automatically from the 1st or 2nd Drawer, or manually via the Multi Bypass Table or Manual Bypass Table. Paper separation is accomplished by the torque limiter fitted to the Paper Separator Roll. (For more details, see 18. PAPER TAKE-UP/FEED SECTION.)

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 14. IMAGE TRANSFER AND PAPER SEPARATION.)

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 14. IMAGE TRANSFER AND PAPER SEPARATION.)

9. Cleaning
Residual toner on the surface of the PC Drum is scraped off by the Cleaning Blade. (For more details, see 16. CLEANING UNIT.)

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 17. MAIN ERASE LAMP.)

11. Transport
The paper is fed to the Fusing Unit by the Suction Belts. (For more details, see 22. PAPER TRANSPORT.)

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 23. FUSING UNIT.)

13. Paper Exit


After the fusing process the paper is fed out by the Paper Exit Roller onto the Copy Tray. (For more details, see 24. EXIT UNIT.)

5 WATCHDOG (CPU OVERRUN MONITOR) FUNCTION


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.
1156SBM0501A

5-1. Configuration
The copier has three printed-circuit boards each on which a CPU is mounted: *SCP Board PWB-F that controls the optical system, *Master Board PWB-A that controls the copier, Paper Feed Cabinet and Duplex Unit, and *MSC Board PWB-B that controls the control panel and system. In addition to these, each of the control boards for the Data Controller, Duplexing Document Feeder, 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 MSC CPU monitors the communications conditions of the CPUs in the Duplexing Document Feeder and Data Controller. *The Master CPU 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 Master CPU in the copier controls their operations.

5-2. Watchdog Function Post-Processing


The following processing is performed if a faulty condition is detected in the CPU. When the copier CPU is found faulty: D All CPUs including those of the options are reset and the system is restarted. If the CPU is found faulty during a copy cycle, the system attempts to feed all sheets of paper out of the copier before resetting. (If paper is left inside the copier, the copier detects it as a misfeed as it is restarted.) When an option CPU is found faulty: D The option relays are turned OFF and ON and all options are then restarted. If the CPU is found faulty during a copy cycle, the copier stops the paper take-up sequence and feeds all sheets of paper out of the copier before resetting. The Watchdog Counter available from the Tech. Rep. mode allows the Technical Representative to check if any faulty condition has occurred in the CPU. For details, see SWITCHES ON PWBs.

6 MALFUNCTION BYPASS FUNCTION


D When a malfunction occurs in the copier, the malfunction bypass function permits the copier to continue operating if that malfunction is one of the predefined candidates for an isolated malfunction and if it will not affect the current copying operation. But, if an isolated malfunction occurs anytime during the actual copy cycle, the copier considers it a normal malfunction. D If a copying function involving an isolated malfunction is selected, the message Selected mode cant be used. appears on the Touch Panel and the copier rejects that function. D When an isolated malfunction occurs, a tiny wrench indicator appears in the lower left corner of the Basic Screen. Access the Machine Status display by touching the wrench icon or via the Tech. Rep. mode to ascertain the trouble code. Then refer to the Troubleshooting Manual for details. D Trouble codes for up to five isolated malfunctions are shown on the Machine Status display. When a sixth isolated malfunction occurs, the copier considers it a normal malfunction, prompting a Tech. Rep. call. (The sixth malfunction is shown on the Touch Panel.) But, if all of the paper feed ports (except the manual feed port) show an isolated malfunction, the copier considers them a normal malfunction even though the isolated malfunction count may be less than five. The display also tells the condition when the image stabilization controls are not properly working. D For the details of the Isolated malfunction codes, see TROUBLESHOOTING for the copier and the specific SERVICE MANUAL for the options.

AIDC Sensor adjustment Grid voltage and T/C correction Optimum Exposure Lamp voltage correction AE Sensor gain adjustment

D The following is the details of each image stabilization control. -1 AIDC Sensor coarse adjustment This adjustment represents a coarse adjustment of the AIDC Sensor when the ordinary control of only the LED current cannot cover part-to-part variations in the AIDC Sensor (installation, circuit, deterioration, etc.). The surface of the PC Drum whose charges have been neutralized is exposed to light from the LED. The output current from the AIDC Sensor goes through the load resistance selected by a 4-bit analog switch and the 4-bit analog switch selects the load resistance so that the resultant voltage becomes 1V or less. -2 AIDC Sensor fine adjustment If the AIDC Sensor is dirty with toner, it results in an error being produced in the sensor output voltage value, providing a false reference value. The surface of the PC Drum which has been erased is exposed to light from the LED. The LED current value is varied through pulse width control so that the output voltage from the AIDC Sensor becomes 1V.
Controlled Part AIDC Sensor Control Signal PJ11A-7A ON OFF WIRING DIAGRAM 1-I

Pulse output

Grid voltage and T/C correction The Image Erase Lamp produces a solid-black pattern on the surface of the PC Drum and the AIDC Sensor reads the pattern. The grid voltage is then varied so that the output from the AIDC Sensor remains at a given level or higher, which ensures that the toner-to-carrier ratio on the surface of the PC Drum becomes constant. If an even greater solid-black density is required when the upper control limit of the grid voltage has already been reached, the target control value of T/C is raised in 0.5% steps up to 7%, thus terminating the adjustment sequence.

Optimum Exposure Lamp voltage correction The Exposure Lamp is turned ON to illuminate the halftone patch on the back of the Original Width Scale, thereby producing a halftone pattern on the surface of the PC Drum. The Exposure Lamp voltage is then varied so that the output from the AIDC Sensor falls within the target range, thereby ensuring an optimum exposure level.

8 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 has its grounding point inside at the rear end. When the Imaging Unit is installed in the copier, the shaft on which the PC Drum Drive Coupling Gear is mounted contacts this grounding point.

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 Imaging Unit has been removed from the copier. Further, use utmost care when handling the PC Drum to prevent it from being contaminated.

DRUM CHARGING

The PC Drum Charge Corona has a Scorotron grid to deposit a negative DC charge evenly across the surface of the PC Drum. The grid voltage (VG) applied to the grid mesh is selected between 550V (initial value, variable according to image stabilization controls) in the normal mode and the value in the normal mode +90V in the Photo mode by the Constant-Voltage Circuit in High Voltage Unit HV1. The Corona Unit has a Comb Electrode which minimizes the amount of ozone produced. The conventional wire type corona unit produces a large amount of ozone due to corona discharge in radial directions. The comb electrode type, on the other hand, discharges only toward the Grid Mesh, meaning a reduced amount of ozone is produced. The Comb Electrode can be cleaned by the user who pulls out to the front the shaft on which a Cleaning Rollar is mounted.

An AC halogen lamp is used as Exposure Lamp LA1. As the exposure level is adjusted on the control panel, the duty ratio of the pulse of AVR Remote from PWB-A changes to increase or decrease the LA1 voltage, thereby changing the image density. In Photo mode, the voltages are varied on a level 3V (200V Areas: 6V) lower than the manual Exposure Lamp voltages.

11-2. AE Sensor
In the Auto Exposure Mode, the AE Sensor on AE Sensor Board PWB-H measures the intensity of the light reflected off the original, by sampling the black/white ratio of a 210-mm-wide area of the original being measured. According to this measurement, the Exposure Lamp voltage is automatically increased or decreased so that copies of consistent quality are produced. The output from the AE Sensor is applied to PWB-A which, in turn, varies the duty ratio of the AVR Remote which varies the LA1 voltage accordingly.

The Main Reflector ensures that light from Exposure Lamp LA1 exposes all areas of the original. The Auxiliary Reflector functions to reflect light onto the areas that LA1 cannot illuminate when an original that does not lie flat on the Original Glass (such as a book) is being used. This reduces shadows which would otherwise be transferred to the copy. The Main Reflector is of aluminum, while the Auxiliary Reflector is aluminum to which film has been deposited. The same film as that used on the Auxiliary Reflector is affixed to both ends of the frame to compensate for the reduced intensity of light around both ends of the Exposure Lamp.

The Scanner and 2nd/3rd Mirrors Carriage are moved by the Scanner Drive Cable fitted in the rear side of the copier. The Cable is driven by Scanner Motor M2. Both the Scanner and 2nd/3rd Mirrors Carriage slide along the Scanner Shaft at the rear side. While at the front side, there is a Slide Bushing attached to the underside of each of the bodies and that Bushing slides over the Slide Rail. The speed of the Scanner and 2nd/3rd Mirrors Carriage varies with different zoom ratios. Scanner Reference Position Sensor PC81 detects the home position of the Scanner and 2nd/3rd Mirrors Carriage. If they are not at the home position when the copier is turned ON, M2 is energized to move them to the home position.

D Drive is transmitted from the copier to the Developing Unit by Coupling Gears 1 and 2 when they mesh. D Coupling Gear 2 is spring-loaded. If the protruding part of Coupling Gear 1 makes contact with that of Coupling Gear 2 when the Developing Unit is slid into the copier, spring-loaded Coupling Gear 2 is pushed back toward the rear of the copier allowing the Developing Unit to be slid into position. When drive is later transmitted to the Developing Unit, Coupling Gar 2 is pushed to the front by the tension of the spring to mesh positively with Coupling Gear 1.

13-2. Magnet Roller


The Magnet Roller of the Sleeve/Magnet Roller of this copier has the following magnetic characteristics. Pole S3 before poles N1 and N2 at which development takes place provides a very weak magnetic force. If developer is compacted and clogs at the Doctor Blade and, as a result, part of the surface of the Sleeve/Magnet Roller is not covered with developer, the nearby developer around S3 goes to those uncovered areas because of the weak magnetic force. This helps prevent white lines from occuring on the copy. The magnetic flux density is maximized to allow the bristle to stand high and upright at poles N1 and N2, at which development takes place. The positioning of these two like poles together helps agitate the developer for greater uniformity, thus preventing white lines from occurring on the copy. The Sleeve Roller, onto which developer is attracted by the magnetic fields of force set up by the poles of the Magnet Roller, turns to convey the developer toward the point of development. This means that developer fresh from the Developer Mixing Chamber is always brought to the point of development. The Imaging Unit integrates the Developing Unit with the PC Drum into one body. Because of that, it is impossible to move the Developing Unit against the PC Drum, thereby providing a certain distance between the PC Drum and Sleeve/Magnet Roller. The Magnet Roller has therefore 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.

13-3. 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). D When the potential difference is large, a greater amount of toner is attracted. D When the potential difference is small, a smaller amount of toner is attracted. Because the Magnet Roller of this copier is movable, a flat spring is used as the Bias Terminal which follows the movement of the Magnet Roller.

13-5. ATDC Sensor


The copier compares the toner-to-carrier ratio (T/C) of the developer in the Developer Mixing Chamber detected by ATDC Sensor UN3 during a copy cycle with the reference ratio (6%) and, if it finds a lower ratio than the reference, replenishes the supply of toner. The standard output voltage of the ATDC Sensor for the reference T/C (6%) is 2.5V. If the toner-to-carrier ratio becomes lower than 2.5% in a toner-empty condition, the copier inhibits the initiation of a new copy cycle (this feature can be enabled or disabled by a Tech. Rep. Choice mode). As soon as a ratio of 3% or more is recovered, the copier permits the initiation of a new copy cycle. If the Front Door is swung open and closed with a T/C ratio of less than 3%, the copier initiates an Auxiliary Toner Replenishing sequence. (The toner-empty condition is canceled as soon as a T/C ratio of 3.5% is reached and the copier completes the Auxiliary Toner Replenishing sequence when the target level is reached.)

ATDC Sensor Automatic Adjustment


An automatic adjustment of the ATDC Sensor is made in the F8 or FF Test Mode operation.

*When F8 (or FF) is Run after Starter Has Been Changed:


Following the execution of the starter setup mode, upon pressing the Start Key, the copier CPU reads the output value of the ATDC Sensor and adjusts the ATDC Sensor gain so that the output value becomes 2.5V. NOTE: If an F8 (or FF) operation is run at a time when the starter has not been changed, it can result in a wrong T/C reference value being set by the copier. Avoid casual use of F8. If the setting value has been cleared because of the RAM Board being replaced, use the Level History function of the Tech. Rep. mode to return the ATDC Ref. Value to the original value before the board was replaced.

* The amount of toner replenished varies according to the paper size (given in the table are figures for A4). The copier is also provided with a function that, if T/C detected during a copy cycle is lower than the reference by 2% or more, interrupts the copy cycle and performs a toner replenishing sequence and, as soon as there is a gain of 1% against the T/C reading, resumes the copy cycle. This function is, however, disabled when a toner-empty condition is detected and the ATDC Sensor is found faulty. <Toner Replenishing Control by AIDC Sensor> This copier is equipped with a function that switches from the ATDC Sensor, if it becomes defective, to the AIDC Sensor to continue providing the toner replenishing control. A pattern is produced on the surface of the PC Drum for each copy between two successive copies or after it has been fed out. The AIDC Sensor reads that pattern to detect the amount of toner sticking to it and the copier performs either of the following toner replenishing sequences depending on the output voltage of the AIDC Sensor.

D A toner-empty condition in the Sub Hopper is detected by the magnet fitted to the Sub Hopper Toner Empty Detecting Lever and Sub Hopper Toner Empty Switch S106. D The Sub Hopper Toner Empty Detecting Lever rides on the eccentric cam fitted to the rear of the Sub Hopper Toner Agitating Lever. It is moved up and down as the eccentric cam is turned by the drive transmitted from Main Drive Motor M1. D While the amount of toner in the Sub Hopper is higher than the predetermined level, the Sub Hopper Toner Empty Detecting Lever rests on the toner and does not make the up-and -down motion. S106 therefore remains deactuated. D When the amount of toner in the Sub Hopper is lower than the predetermined level, the Sub Hopper Toner Empty Detecting Lever moves up and down by the eccentric cam. This result in S106 being actuated and deactuated. When the time S106 is actuated exceeds a predetermined value, the copier CPU determines that the Sub Hopper has run out of toner.

13-9. Swinging Out/In the Main Hopper


D 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. D 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> D 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.

14 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. 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 PAPER SEPARATOR FINGERS.) 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. The Image Transfer/Paper Separator Coronas Unit is grounded via a high capacity resistor, which improves its efficiency to discharge to the PC Drum side, thus reducing the output current from High Voltage Unit HV1.

15 PAPER SEPARATOR FINGERS


After image transfer, an AC corona emission is applied to the underside of the paper by the Paper Separator Corona to neutralize the paper so that it can be easily separated from the PC Drum. To further ensure that the paper is positively separated from the PC Drum, there are two Paper Separator Fingers attached to the Imaging Unit. They physically peel the paper off the surface of the PC Drum. To prevent the Paper Separator Fingers from damaging the surface of the PC Drum, they are kept in the retracted position whenever they are not at work. As illustrated below, the Fingers are brought into contact with, and retracted from, the surface of the PC Drum by the Lever which is operated by Separator Solenoid SL1.

<Paper Separator Finger Front-to-Back Moving Mechanism> The Paper Separator Fingers are also moved over a given distance to the front and rear so that they will contact wider areas of the surface of the PC Drum, thus preventing localized damage to the PC Drum surface. D The Swash Cam mounted on the Pivot Pin of the Finger Operating Lever is moved through steps by means of the Ratchet wheel and SL1, causing the Swash Cam to push the Finger Shaft. D The lateral movement of the Paper Separator Fingers is 3.5 mm (which is equivalent to 60 times energization of SL1).

D When the Paper Descent Key (UN5/6) is pressed*1 after the drawer has been slid into the copier, it energizes the Lift-Up Motor (M13/14) and the motor starts turning forward. D The rotation of the motor is transmitted via a gear train to the worm gear and the Paper Lifting Arm mounted on the same shaft, raising the Paper Lifting Plate. This raises the paper stack. D When the top of the paper stack is pressed against the Paper Take-Up Roll and the paper stack is further raised, the light blocking plate of the Paper Take-Up Roll Assy blocks the Lift-Up Sensor (PC65/66). This deenergizes the Lift-Up Motor and the paper stack raising motion is completed. D As the paper is consumed and the top level of the paper stack lowers, the Lift-Up Sensor is unblocked. Then, the Lift-Up Motor is energized again to raise the paper stack until the Lift-Up Sensor is blocked again. This means that a constant pressure is maintained between the paper and the Paper Take-Up Roll regardless of the amount of paper still available for use. *1: The Lift-Up Motor is energized at the following timings, in addition to the press of the Paper Descent Key (UN5/6).

Paper Stack Lowering D When the Paper Descent Key (UN5/6) is pressed or the drawer runs out of paper during a copy cycle, the Lift-Up Motor (M13/14) is energized to turn backward. D The rotation of the motor is transmitted via a gear train to the worm gear and Paper Lifting Arm mounted on the same shaft, lowering them. D When the Lower Limit Position Sensor (PC70/71) is blocked by the light blocking plate of the worm gear, it deenergizes the Lift-Up Motor (M13/14). This completes the paper stack lowering motion (at a paper-empty condition). D When the Paper Descent Key (UN5/6) is pressed, the Lift-Up Motor is deenergized when the Lower Limit Position Sensor (PC70/71) is unblocked after it has been blocked. This unlocks the drawer.

D The pulse disk is mounted on the shaft of the intermediary gear that transmits drive from the Lift-Up Motor (M13/14). The speed of the pulse disk varies with different paper levels and the number of pulses detected by the Lift-Up Motor Pulse Sensor (PC67/68) is used to determine the paper level. D Counting of the number of pulses is started when the Lift-Up Motor (M13/14) is energized and continues until the output from the Lift-Up Sensor (PC65/66) goes LOW. The total number of pulses is translated into the amount of paper which is shown on the Touch Panel as a graphic marker in units of 50 sheets of paper. D As the paper is consumed and the top level of the paper stack lowers, the Lift-Up Motor is energized to raise the paper stack. During this time, the Lift-Up Motor Pulse Sensor (PC67/68) detects pulses and that pulse count is accumulated. When the count reaches 50 sheets of paper, one segment of the paper level indicator on the Touch Panel goes out.

18-6. Paper Take-Up Mechanism (1) Paper Take-Up Mechanism


D The paper take-up and feeding mechanism takes up paper from the drawer and feeds it to the Vertical Transport Roller. D The take-up mechanism is driven by 1st/2nd Drawer Paper Take-Up Motor M11/12. D Each paper take-up mechanism consists of a Paper Take-Up Roll, Feed Roll and Separator Roll with torque limiter. D The Separator Roll is controlled by the torque limiter so that it will not transport more than one sheet of paper at a time.

(2) Paper Separating Mechanism


D 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. D This is accomplished by the difference in friction coefficient between the first and second sheets of paper.

<Normal Feeding>
D When only one sheet of paper is fed, the friction coefficient on the top side of the paper is equal Feed Roll to that on the underside. D Driven by the Feed Roll, the paper drives the Paper Separator Roll. This causes the paper to be sent Separator Roll to the Vertical Transport Section. D The friction coefficient varies for different ambi4425M012AA ent conditions and types of paper being used, which often causes the Separator Roll to be staDriven or stationary tionary.

<Double Feeding>
Feed Roll
1st sheet of Paper 2nd sheet of Paper
4425M013AA

Separator Roll

D Since the coefficient of friction between the top side of the first sheet of paper and the Feed Roll is greater than that between the first and second sheets of paper, the first sheet of paper is fed into the copier by the Feed Roll. Since the friction coefficient between the second sheet of paper and the Separator Roll is greater than that between the first and second sheet of paper, the Separator Roll is not driven and holds the second sheet of paper.

(3) Paper Pressure Releasing Mechanism


D If the drawer is pulled out while the paper is between the Feed Roll and the Separator Roll, the paper is left in the copier. Removal of the paper is difficult. With this copier, sliding out the drawer automatically disengages the paper and Paper TakeUp/Feed Roll. D The Paper Pressure Releasing Mechanism makes it easier to remove a sheet of paper held between the Feed Roll and Paper Separator Roll by just sliding out the drawer. When the drawer is pulled out, the pressure release rail pushes down the Separator Roll Assy, disengaging the Feed Roll from the Separator Roll.

(2) Paper Take-Up Retry Control


D To minimize the occurrence of a paper misfeed due to a slippery Paper Take-Up Roll, the Paper Take-Up Motor (M11/12) is kept deenergized for a given period of time before it is energized again, if a sheet of paper fails to reach the Paper Take-Up Sensor (PC55/56) even after the lapse of a given period of time after the motor has first been energized (paper take-up retry control). D A misfeed results if the sheet of paper does not reach the Paper Take-Up Sensor even after three paper take-up sequences.

(3) Paper Take-Up Interval Control


D The Paper Feed Roll and Separator Roll may sometimes fail to separate the subsequent sheet of paper properly and the leading edge of that paper may be beyond the Feed and Separator Rolls inside the copier. If the next paper take-up sequence is started in this condition, the distance between the preceding and the current sheet of paper will become shorter than normal, resulting in a misfeed. D To maintain a given paper take-up interval, therefore, this copier provides the following control. If it takes the paper less than a specified time to block ([L]) PC55/56 after M11/12 has been energized, M11/12 is temporarily deenergized and, an appropriate period of time thereafter, it is energized again (paper take-up interval control).

(4) Double Feed Paper Take-Up Control


D Even if the Paper Take-Up Roll takes up two sheets of paper at one time, the double feed paper take-up 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. D If the second sheet of paper is stationary blocking PC55/56 when the trailing edge of the first sheet of paper moves past Vertical Transport Sensor PC63/PC64, the copier determines that it is a double feed condition and provides double feed control. D If, however, the second sheet of paper has reached the Vertical Transport Roller, 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.

20 VERTICAL PAPER TRANSPORT


The sheet of paper taken up by the Paper Take-Up Roll from the Drawer is fed along the Paper Guide to the Vertical Transport Rollers. The paper fed by the Vertical Transport Rollers reaches the Transport Rollers and is then fed up to the Synchronizing Rollers. The Transport Rollers are turned and stopped by Paper Transport Clutch CL1. The Transport Rollers are coupled to the Vertical Transport Rollers by way of gears, meaning that the Vertical Transport Rollers are turned and stopped in time with the Transport Rollers. Transport Roller Sensor PC54 immediately after the Transport Rollers detects a sheet of paper fed from the Vertical Transport Section or Manual Bypass Table.
A Paper Dust Remover is fitted to one of the Transport Rollers, collecting paper dust from the rollers.

The Cover for the Vertical Transport Section (i.e., the Side Door) can be opened and closed for clearing misfeeds. Right Upper Door Interlock Switch S22 detects whether or not this Cover is open.

As paper is then fed between the Synchronizing Rollers, the charges on the tubing attract paper dust from the paper. The dust is then transferred onto the Paper Dust Remover. The Paper Transport Rollers are also provided with a paper Dust Remover.

21-4. Prevention of Low Image Density on Copy During conditions of high humidity when the paper is damp, charges 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 occuring, 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 could occur with other guide plates, resulting in a malfunction. To prevent this, a resistor and a varistor are connected to the guide plates. The guide plates are connected by flat springs as illustrated below.

23-1. Fusing Temperature Control The Upper Fusing Roller is heated by Fusing Heater Lamp H1 which is an AC halogen lamp. Fusing Thermistor 1 TH1 and Thermistor 2 TH2 installed on the Upper Fusing Roller helps keep the optimum fusing temperature.
The fusing temperature is normally controlled at 200C during a copy cycle and at 190C in the standby state. To ensure good fusing performance even when the Lower Fusing Roller remains cool immediately after warmup in the early morning, the temperature is controlled as follows when the copier is turned ON. D Temperature is controlled at 200C for one hour after the copier has completed warming up, which is followed by a temperature control at 190C. If a copy cycle is started while the temperature is being controlled at 190C, the temperature control at 200C begins. As soon as the copy cycle is completed, control is again switched to 190C.

TH1 is positioned at a point 30.5 mm from the paper path reference position, thereby preventing offset caused by low temperature and degraded fusing performance for small-size paper. The control temperature in the Energy Saving Mode is 155C. With EP5000, the control temperature is 180C in the Energy Saving Mode. Fusing Thermoswitch TS1, installed above the Upper Fusing Roller, cuts off the power to the Fusing Unit if the temperature of the Upper Fusing Roller becomes excessively high. It eliminates the possibility of a fire that could occur when H1 remains ON due to a faulty temperature control circuit.

Be sure to unplug the power cord when servicing this part or other parts near it. D When the machine is energized with any of its covers removed, never use a flammable spray near it, as a fire can result. D Make sure that correct screws (diameter and length of the screw, binding/tapping screws) are used in the correct places when assembling parts. If a wrong screw is used, a short insulating distance could result. It could also result in collapsed threads, which provides only a poor grounding connection, resulting in an electric shock. D A toothed washer and spring washer, if used originally, must be reinstalled. If they are left out, a contact failure results, causing an electric shock or fire. D Replace a lithium cell only with one having the part number specified in the parts manual. An explosion could result if the cell is installed with wrong polarity or a wrong cell is installed. Dispose of a used lithium cell according to the applicable local regulations. Never throw it away or abandon it on the users premises.

u Other Precautions u
D While the machine is being energized, do not unplug or plug in a connector on a PWB or relay harness. D Since the Magnet Roller of the Imaging Unit generates a strong magnetic force, do not bring a CRT, watch, floppy disk, or magnetic card near it. D Use of an air gun or vacuum generates static electricity which can cause the ATDC Sensor and associated parts to break down. Be sure therefore to use a blower brush or cloth to clean these parts. If a unit is to be cleaned, be sure to remove the sensors in advance. D MOS lCs are susceptible to static electricity. When handling a PWB loaded with MOS ICs, follow precautions given in INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING THE PWBs WITH MOS ICs. D The PC Drum is highly delicate. When handling the PC Drum, follow the precautions given in HANDLING OF THE PC DRUM. D To reassemble, reverse the order of disassembly unless otherwise specified. D Note that replacement of a PWB may call for readjustments or resetting of particular items. CAUTION: DANGER OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS INCORRECTLY REPLACED. REPLACE ONLY WITH THE SAME OR EQUIVALENT TYPE RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER. DISPOSE OF 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 brugle bafferi tilbage til leverandoren.

SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS

1151SBD0101B

1-1. PRECAUTIONS FOR DISASSEMBLY/ADJUSTMENTS


Observe the following precautions whenever servicing the copier. D Be sure to unplug the copier from the outlet before attempting to service the copier. D 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. D 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. D 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. D Do not use flammable spray around the copier in operation. D The Magnet Roller of the Imaging Unit generates strong magnetic force. Do not bring it near a cathode-ray tube or watch. D The lithium cell in RAM Board PWB-R can burst. At replacement, make sure of the correct polarity and do not change it or create a closed circuit. 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. D 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. D When handling the PWBs with MOS ICs, observe Instructions for Handling the PWBs with MOS ICs. D When handling the PC Drum, observe precautions given in Handling of the PC Drum. D Note that replacement of a PWB may call for readjustments or resetting of particular items. D Use the right screw in the right place at reassembly. Note that some are longer and some are thicker than others. D 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. D To reassemble the copier, reverse the order of disassembly unless otherwise specified. D 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. D 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.

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: D During transportation or when in storage, new P.W. Boards must not be indiscriminately removed from their protective conductive bags. D Do not store or place P.W. Boards in a location exposed to direct sunlight. D 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. D Do not touch the pins of the ICs with your bare hands. During Replacement: D Before unplugging connectors from the P.W. Boards, make sure that the power cord has been unplugged from the outlet. D 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. D Before plugging connectors into the Board, make sure that the power cord has been unplugged from the power outlet. During Inspection: D Avoid checking the IC directly with a multimeter; use connectors on the Board. D Never create a closed circuit across IC pins with a metal tool. D When it is absolutely necessary to touch the ICs and other electrical components on the Board, be sure to ground your body.
1151SBD0103A

1-3. HANDLING OF THE PC DRUM


During Transportation/Storage: D Use the specified carton whenever moving or storing the PC Drum. D The storage temperature is in the range between 20C and +40C. D In summer, avoid leaving the PC Drum in a car for a long time. Handling: D Ensure that the correct PC Drum is used. D Whenever the PC Drum has been removed from the copier, store it in its container or protect it with a Drum Cloth. D 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. D Use care not to contaminate the surface of the PC Drum with oil-base solvent, fingerprints, and other foreign matter. D Do not scratch the surface of the PC Drum. D Do not apply chemicals to the surface of the PC Drum. D Do not attempt to wipe clean the surface of the PC Drum.

D-3

Interleaf EP5000/EP4000 DIS/REASSEMBLY, ADJUSTMENT 97.04.01

If, however, the surface is contaminated with fingerprints, clean it using the following procedure. 1. Place the PC Drum into one half of 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 straight 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 slightly 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. * At this time, 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 has been 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 has been wiped. Always OVERLAP the areas when wiping. Two complete turns of the PC Drum would be appropriate for cleaning.

NOTES D The Organic Photoconductor Drum is softer than CdS and Selenium Drums and is therefore susceptible to scratches. D Even when the PC Drum is only locally dirtied, wipe the entire surface. D Do not expose the PC Drum to direct sunlight. Clean it as quickly as possible even under interior illumination. D If dirt remains after cleaning, repeat the entire procedure from the beginning one more time.

1 PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING THE PWBs


1151SBS0101A

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 (and 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 (such as a carpet or plastic bag). d) Do not touch the parts and printed patterns on the PWBs with bare hands.
1151SBS0102A

1-2. Precautions for Replacement and Inspection


a) b) c) d) Whenever replacing the PWB, make sure that the power cord of the copier has been unplugged. When the power is on, the connectors must not be plugged in or unplugged. Use care not to strap the pins of an IC with a metal tool. 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 to discharge static electricity before touching the PWB.

When servicing the copier with the Lower Rear Cover removed, be sure to install the jig. 2. Before attempting to replace parts and unplug 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 a 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 procedures 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.
1139SBT0103A

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 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 you answered NO.

Go to step 2 if it checks okay.

2 I/O PORT CHECK


1156SBT0201A

2-1. Controlled Parts Check Procedure


To allow the Tech. Rep. to easily and safely determine whether a particular controlled part is fully operational, this copier provides the following provision: checking the data of the I/O port of the board IC with the copier in the standby state (including a misfeed, malfunction, and closure failure condition) allows the Tech. Rep. to determine whether a signal is properly input to, and output from, a controlled part.

<Procedure> 1) On the circuit diagram accompanying the text, locate the I/O port of the controlled part which is probably defective when a misfeed or malfunction occurs. 2) Select the IC Port Data Check function of I/O Check in the Tech. Rep. mode and access the screen which contains the port identified in step 1 above. (See SWITCHES ON PWBs/TECH. REP. MODE.) 3) Change or check the input or output port data to determine whether the controlled part is operational and signals are properly input and output. 4) If the controlled part does not operate properly after changing the output port data, select Controller Board Check of I/O Check in the Tech. Rep. mode and determine whether the board is responsible for that malfunction or not. Note: Only the output ports given on pages T-37 and 38 may be checked by Controller Board Check of I/O Check in the Tech. Rep. mode.

<Controlled Part Check Procedure by Changing Input Port Data>

Example: When a paper misfeed occurs in the paper take-up section of the copier, 1st Drawer Paper Take-Up Sensor PC56 is considered to be responsible for it. <Procedure> 1) Remove the sheet of paper misfed and reset the misfeed. 2) From the I/O port check list, it is found that the H/L input signal to PC56 is supplied from PWB-A (IC3A) APB3. 3) Select IC Port Check from the I/O Check function in the Tech. Rep. mode and access the screen which includes the input ports of PWB-A (IC3A) APB3. 4) Check that the input port data of PWB-A (IC3A) APB3 on the screen is H (sensor being unblocked). 5) Move the PC56 actuator to block the sensor. 6) Return to the I/O Check basic screen once, select IC Port Check again, choose the screen which includes the APB3 input port data, and make sure that the data has changed from H to L. L: PC56 is operational. H: PC56 is faulty.

<Controlled Part Check Procedure by Changing Output Port Data>

Example: When a manual paper misfeed occurs, Manual Feed Paper Take-Up Clutch CL3 is considered to be responsible for it. <Procedure> 1) Remove the sheet of paper misfed and reset the misfeed. 2) From the I/O port check list, it is found that the ON/OFF output signal of CL3 is supplied from PWB-A (IC5A) BPA1. 3) Select IC Port Check from the I/O Check function in the Tech. Rep. mode and access the screen which includes the output ports of PWB-A (IC5A) BPA1. 4) Check that the output port data of PWB-A (IC5A) BPA1 on the screen is 1 (CL3 is deenergized). 5) Touch the CHANGE key on the screen to change the data from 1 to 0, causing CL3 to be energized for approx. 5 seconds. This allows you to determine whether the Clutch is operational or faulty by checking for the Clutch sound. Operational: Sound produced. Faulty: No sound produced.

6) If CL3 was not energized, make the Controller Board Check in the same mode (for some electrical parts only). 7) If the ON signal of CL51 is not output from PWB-A, the corresponding malfunction code is displayed. * For CL3, C0337 is displayed.

5-1. Image Failure Troubleshooting


Image failures have many possible causes. For troubleshooting, it is necessary to determine whether a failure is attributable to a basic cause or any other cause. In this chapter, troubleshooting is divided into initial checks and troubleshooting procedures classified by image failure. If an image failure has occurred, first make the initial checks, then proceed to the corresponding image failure troubleshooting procedure.
