I. FEATURES

The copier becomes ready to make copies as soon as it is turned on. When fitted with options, it provides a maximum of four paper sources.

1. Multiple front loading and multifeeder for space saving. l The cassette may be slid out to the front for paper supply work. l With the adjustable cassette and the multifeeder, various types of paper may be used.

2. Office conveniences and ecology. l The copier is equipped with a heating mechanism, which makes the copier ready for copying work at

power-on without wait time. l The copier is designed compact, enabling effective use of office space. l The use of roller charging has proved to reduce the generation of ozone significantly.(l/iOO to i/1000

compared to other Canon copiers) l As the pick-up mechanism, center-reference is adopted in consideration of the use of recycled paper. l A significant number of parts are made of plastic in an effort to promote recycling. . The copier is designed as a clamshell type to facilitate clearing of jammed paper.

3. Dependable high image quality. l The new HQ (high-quality) toner ensures faithful reproduction of solid black, text, and photos. l In addition to Canon’s own single-component toner projection development method, the use of auto

image control (AIC) ensures stable reproduction of images.

4. Practical basic features. l As many as 21 copies (AWLetter, horizontal) may be made per minute. l Copies may be as large as A3/11x17 or as small as A5/STMT, accommodating postcards. l The AE mechanism promises enhanced reproduction of newspapers or diazo originals. . Using page separation mode, a book may be copies with its lift and right pages processed separately. l Copies may be made in zoom between 49% and 204%. l The zoom fine-adjustment mechanism ensures better control for faithful reproduction of originals. l The auto power-off mechanism helps further saving of energy. l The interrupt mechanism enables cutting in on a continuous copying session.

The copier forms images through the following steps, and each of the steps functions as described below.

step 1 pre-exposure step 2 primary charging (negative DC) step 3 image exposure step 4 development (AC and negative DC bias) step 5 transfer (negative DC) step 6 separation (curvature + static eliminator) step 7 fixing step 6 drum cleaning

The photosensitive drum consists of a photoconducting layer on the outside and an alumi- num base on the inside; the photoconducting layer is made of organic photoconductor (OPC), and the aluminum conductor is a photoconductor.

B. Latent Static Image Formation Block

The block consists of three steps; at the end of the block, areas of the drum corresponding to the black areas of the original are left with negative chargesand theareasofthedrumcorresponding to the white areas of the original are rid of negative charges.

The images formed on the drum by the pres- ence and absence of negative charges are not visible to the human eye and, therefore, the term latent static images.

,, ‘--.._\ C. Step 1 (pre-exposure)

49 Pre-exposure lamp

,’ Figure 2-105

Before primary charging takes place, the light of the pre-exposure lamp is directed to the photosen- sitive drum to eliminate the residual charges on the drum, thereby preventing uneven density.

D. Step 2 (primary charging)

Primary charging roller

Figure 2-106

The copier uses what is termed primary charg- ing, in which a charging roller made of conducting material directly charges the photosensitive drum. Compared to the conventional corona charging method, direct charging provides such advantages as a low application voltage and virtual absence of ozone.

The primary charging roller is a special roller and possesses different characteristics from the transfer roller.

Toner ,Blade Optical image

Dark area Light area

Figure 2-107

In this step, the optical image of an original is projected on the photosensitive drum to neutralize the charges in the light areas.

Figure 2-108

As shown in Figure 2-108, the developing as- sembly consists of a fixed magnet, a cylinder that rotates around the magnet, and a rubber blade.

The toner is a one-component toner whose main ingredient is magnetic resins.

The toner has insulating characteristics and becomes positively charged by friction against the rubber blade, which remains in contact under pres- sure with the cylinder; the toner is evened out to form a thin layer on the cylinder owing to the elasticity of the rubber.

Figure 2-11 Cl

During copying operation, the drum surface potential and development bias (at time of positive component) draw toner to the photosensitive drum to turn the latent static image into a visible image. The excess toner is drawn away from the photosen- sitivedrum bytheworkofthedrumsurface potential and the developing bias (at time of negative compo- nent).

The AC bias (frequency, in particular) mainly affects gradation; a lower frequency improves the gradation, but tends to result in fogging. The DC bias relates to copy density and fogging; a higher bias, that is closer to 0 V, darkens the image but in turn could lead to fogging.

G. Step 5 (transfer)

Figure 2-111

The transfer roller deposits negative charges on the back of copy paper to attract toner from the drum surface to the copy paper.

The copier uses a roller transfer method, which requires a lower transfer voltage compared to co- rona transfer methods and generates virtually no ozone.

To prevent transfer failure or soiling of the back of copy paper, the transfer guide is grounded through a varistor.

Figure 2-113

Thecopier usesacurvatureseparation method, which separates copy paper from the photosensi- tive drum by the rigidity of the paper. However, thin paper could at times fail to separate from the drum because of its low rigidity. To prevent such a prob- lem, a positive charge is applied to the separation static eliminator, thereby weakening the static attraction for better separation.

Figure 2-114

After transfer, the toner image is fused to the copy paper while the paper is moving between the fixing film and the pressure roller.

The fixing heater is a plane-shaped heater de- signed to heattheareaof thefixingfilm that remains in contact, thereby eliminating warm-up time.

The temperature of the fixing heater is moni- tored by the main thermistor (THI) located above the center of the fixing heater, and the heater is thermally controlled to a specific temperature.

In addition, the sub thermistor (TH2) found on the end of the fixing heater checks the temperature of the area where small-sized paper does not come into contact to prevent overheating. A fixing clean- ing roller made of aluminum remains in contact with the pressure roller to remove toner from the pres- sure roller; it also serves to discharge heat of the pressure roller.

In this step, the cleaning blade scrapes off the toner remaining on the photosensitive drum in prepa- rationforthe nextcopyrun. Thetonerisgathered by the scoop-up sheet and collected at the rear by a blade.

AUXILIARY PROCESS

Blank Exposure

Blank exposure is executed to remove the drum surface potential of the non-image area that occurs as a result of the difference among copy sizes or when making copies in Reduce mode.

The light from the pre-exposure lamp is re- flected by the reflecting plate and directed to the photosensitive drum.

The non-image area between sheets of copy paper is created by reflecting the light from the pre- exposure lamp by a separate reflecting plate, exposing the whole area.

OPERATIONS AND TIMING I

H. Main Motor Control Circuit

1. Outline Figure 3-121 shows the circuit that controls the

main motor (Ml), and the circuit has the following functions: 0 Turns ON/OFF the main motor. @ Controls the main motor to a specific speed.

The main motor (Ml) is a DC motor equipped with a built-in clock pulse generator. When the motor rotates, clock pulse signals (MMCLK’) are generated according to the revolution of the motor. The speed control circuit controls the main motor (Ml) to a specific speed by matching the phase of the frequency of the reference signal with the frequency of the clock pulses.

2. Operations When the main motor signal (MMD) from the DC

controller circuit goes ‘l’, the motor driver drive circuit turns ON, thereby causing the main motor (Ml) to rotate at a specific speed.

While the main motor is rotating at a specific speed, the motor driver PCB sends the constant speed status signal (MLOCK*O) to the DC controller PCB. If a fluctuation occurs in the rotation of the main motor for some reason, the MLOCK’ signal goes ‘1’.

If MLOCK’=O continues for about 1 set while the main motor drive signal (MMD) is ‘I’, the DC controller identifies an error condition and stops the main motor and issues ‘E010’ at the same time.

II. EXPOSURE SYSTEM B. Lens Drive System

A. Varying the Reproduction Ratio

The reproduction ratio in the axial direction of the photosensitive drum is varied by the lens drive system, and that in the peripheral direction of the photosensitive drum is varied by the scanner drive system.

The lensdrivesystem uses a zoom lens, and the reproduction ratio in the axial direction of the photo- sensitive drum is varied by changing both the posi- tion of the lens and the focal distance as shown in Figure 3-201.

The scanner drive system moves the No. 1 mirror faster in relation to the peripheral speed of the photosensitive drum (reduction) or slower (enlargement), thereby varying the reproduction ratio in theperipheraldirectionofthephotosensitive drum.

1. Outline The lens drive system is driven by the lens motor

(M3), and the drive generated by the lens motor is transmitted to the blanking shutter exposure unit through a relay gear. (See p. 3-58.)

To move the lens, the relay gear is engaged with the lens gear by turning ON the change solenoid (SLl). When the lens motor rotates in the direction of the arrow in this condition, the lens moves in the direction of enlargement (4=) because of the drive coming through the relay lens gear and the lens cable.

In reduction mode, the blank exposure shutter operates according to the degree of movement of thelens, therebyblankingout bothsidesof thecopy to suit the selected reduction ratio.

, ._

The machine’s scanner lens home position sensor (PS2) is located in the middle of the scanner lensdrive railsothatthescannerlens home position may be detected quickly at power-on, thereby shortening the first copy time. (Additionally, a mere press on each Ratio button causes the scanner lens to move to the appropriate position to shorten the first copy time.)

8. Outline The scanner motor is a 4-phase control step-

ping motor. It is turned ON/OFF and its direction and the speed of its rotation are chanceged by controlling the output timing of pulse signals SCA/ A’ and SCWW.

b. Operations The microprocessor (Q301) on the DC control-

ler PCB receives such information as on these- lected copying mode and reproduction ratio from the control panel circuit. In response, it issues drive pulses to the scanner motor (M2) by way of the motor drive circuit.

The scanner motor is a 4-phase control step- ping motor and controls the scanning direction and speedbychangingthefrequencyandthesequence of drive pulses (SCA through SCB*).

The motor drive voltage ON/OFF switching cir- cuit conirols whether to apply power to drive the motor or to remove power to keep the motor at rest.

The current switching control circuit determines the current flowing into the motor according to the revolution of the motor, and the motor driver circuit controls the constant current according to the value determined by the circuit.

I OPERATIONS AND TIMING

C. Controlling the Scanning Lamp

1. Outline Figure 3-303 shows the circuit that controls the

scanning lamp, and the circuit has the following functions:

l Turns ON/OFF the scanning lamp. l Controls scanning pre-heating. l Controls the scanning lamp intensity. l Controls the scanning lamp heater.

The machine’s scanning lamp is a fluorescent lamp.

In general, a fluorescent lamp tends to turn on dim and then gradually glows brighter without intensity control. In particular, it takes a rather long time before the intensity stabilizes in a low’

temperature condition. To ensure that the machine’s fluorescent lamp

exposes originals at a stable intensity, the machine is equipped with a fluorescent lamp adjustment sensor which detects the lamp intensity (during copying).

In addition, to enable correct activation in ashort time, half preheating is executed between when the power switch is turned ON and when the Copy Start switch is pressed; thereafter, full pre-heating is executed. (See Figure 3-304.)

If the ambient temperature drops below 15°C or therearound, the machine may enter wait status until a specific intensity can be obtained; to compensate for this, the machine comes equipped with a fluorescent lamp heater for sites subject to low temperature.

,’ - 2. Turning ON/OFF the Scanning Lamp Underthe control of the microprocessor (Q301)

on the DCcontroller PCB, the microprocessor (U402) on the composite power supply PCB generates the scanning lamp ON signal (FLON=O; pulse signal of 1 KHz). At this time, the fluorescent lamp drive circuit causes the output of the secondary side of the transformer (T202) to be applied to both terminals ofthescanninglamp(FLl), therebyallowingcurrent to flow into the scanning lamp (FLl) and turning on the scanning lamp at a high frequency (about 120 KHz).

3. Controlling Scanning Lamp Pre- Heating The machine has four types of control: half pre-

heating, full pre-heating, scanning lamp ON pre- heating I, and scanning lamp ON pre-heating II.

These types of control are executed by the microprocessor (Q301) by varying the duty ratio of the 5KHz fluorescent lamp pre-heating signal (FLPRHT pulse signal) to suit each type of control and sending the output to the scanning lamp pre- heating circuit. Based on this output signal, the scanning lamp pre-heating circuit modulates the amplitudeofthe32KHzsignal togenerateanoutput; in response, the secondary side of the transformer (T302) turns ON to allow fluorescent lamp pre- heating current to flow for pre-heating. (See Figure 3-304 for the sequence of operations.)

5. Controlling the Intensity of the Scanning Lamp (FLl)

l If the intensity is low when the scanning lamp turns on, The start-up power of the adjustment sensor decreases and the fluorescent lamp adjustment signal (FLS) of the amplifier circuit on the DC controller PCB increases. Using this signal, the microprocessor (U402) on the composite power supply PCB decreases the duty ratio, thereby increasing the ON period of the FLON signal. Current flows to the filament of the fluorescent lamp when both MPWM signal (150 KHz) and FLON signal (1 KHz) are ON.

l If the intensity of the fluorescent lamp is high when the fluorescent lamp turns ON, The start-up power of the adjustment sensor increases, and the fluorescent lamp signal (FLS) of the amplifier circuit on the DC controller PCB decreases. Using this signal, the microprocessor (U402) on the composite power supply PCB increases the duty ratio, thereby decreasing the ON period of the FLON signal.

6. Controlling the Fluorescent Lamp Heater As the temperature around the scanner

increases, the resistance of the fluorescent lamp thermistor (TH3) lowers and the voltage of the fluorescent temperature adjustment signal (FLTH) in turn lowers. With reference to this voltage, the fluorescent lamp heater control circuit on the composite power supply PCB causes the fluorescent heater drive signal (FLTHON) to go ‘1’ or ‘0’.

You may turn the scanning lamp (fluorescent lamp) heater switch OFF during particular seasons by way of forcing the fluorescent lamp heater OFF.

7. Fluorescent Lamp Intensity Automatic Correction (ALVC control) The machine executes automatic control of the

ON voltage of the scanning lamp to compensate for changes in the copy quality caused by deterioration of the photosensitive drum (ALVC control).

8. Fluorescent Lamp Protection Mecha- nism (230V model only) If the fluorescent lamp fails to turn ON or fails to

remain ONforaspecificperiod oftime (flickers), the microprocessor on the DC controller increases the application voltage to ensure normal activation of the fluorescent lamp.

The excess voltage on the fluorescent lamp, however, would encourage deterioration. To prevent such deterioration, the machine turns itself OFF if thecompositepowersupply PCBortheDCcontroller PCB detects an error in the application voltage. (The 1 OOW 15V model indicates ‘E220’.)

constant voltage. l Switches the application voltage level of the

The main transformer (T202) is driven by the drive signal (MPWM) from the microprocessor (U402).

2. Turning ON/OFF the Primary Charging Roller Bias Under the control of the microprocessor master

(Q301) on the DC controller PCB, the micro- processor (U402) on the composite power supply PCB generates the PCTRLS signal (pulse signal), which causes the secondary side of the main transformer (T202) to go ON and the primary charging roller bias to be applied.

In addition to executing the above functions, the main transformer (T202) serves as the transformer for DC power and other high-voltage loads.

3. Controlling the Primary Charging Roller Bias to a Constant Voltage

The microprocessor (U402) on the composite power supply PCB reads the PDCS signal (analog signal) from the voltage detection circuit while the biasvoltage is being applied totheprimarycharging roller and controls the PDCPWM signal so that the output voltage remains constant.

4. Sw,itching the Application Voltage Levelforthe Primary Charging Roller Bias

The machine applies a cleaning bias to the transfer’ roller during initial rotation (INTR), when the scanner is moving in reverse (SCRV), during last rotation, and at power-on after a jam. (See p. 3- 46.)

To improve the efficiency of cleaning by the cleaning bias and to prevent residual memory on the drum by the cleaning bias, the primary charging roller bias is applied during initial rotation and while the scanner is moving in reverse.

5. Automatic Correction of the Application Voltage Level of the Primary Charging Roller Bias and theScanning LampONVoltageLevel (APVC, ALVC control) Changes in latent static images can affect the

copy quality; such changes in latent static images result from

l changes in the drum sensitivity, and l changes in the charges from the primary

charging roller. Ontheotherhand, thesechangesoccurbecause

of the site of installation (temperature, humidity), deterioration of related parts, wear, or dirt.

The machine’s light area potential (VL) and dark area potential (VD) tend to increase. To correct such an increase, the machine corrects the application voltage level of the primary charging roller (APVC control)and, atthesametime,correctsthescanning lamp ON voltage level (ALVC control), thereby ensuring a specific degree of light area potential (VL) and light area potential (VD) at all times.

E. Controlling the Transfer Roller Bias

1. Outline The machine uses a direct transfer method that

uses a roller; and, for this reason, it executes bias control in a way different from copiers that rely on corona charging.

The transfer roller bias may be any of three types and has the following function and output timing:

a. Transfer Bias This bias corresponds to the transfer bias of

copiers that rely on corona charging. (constant voltage of -3.5 kV to -6.0 kV DC)

b. Cleaning Bias Since the machine uses adirecttransfer method,

tonerfrom the photosensitive drum can accumulate on the transfer roller because of jams.

To remove such a build-up of toner, a positive voltage (constant, DC) is applied, thereby returning thetonerfrom the transferrollertothephotosensitive drum. The bias is applied as follows:

l during initial rotation after the Copy Start key is pressed.

l part of the period in which the scanner is mbving in reverse.

l part of last rotation.

c. Reference Bias (ATVC) Changes in the environment or deterioration in

the transfer roller can affect the resistance of the transfer roller, possibly affecting the transfer efficiency.

To suppress the changes in the image quality caused by changes in the transfer efficiency, the machine corrects the application voltage level of I the transfer bias.

The transfer ATVC bias (constant current, -190 uA DC) is a bias applied each time the Copy Start keyispressedsothattheaforementionedcorrection value may be determined.

2. Turning ON/OFF the Transfer Roller Bias

The TFWON signal is generated under the control of the microprocessor (U402) on the com- posite power supply PCB, thereby turning ON the secondary side of the transfer transformer (T202) and applying a DC bias to the transfer roller.

Table 3-302 shows combinations of signals used to determine the transfer roller bias.

TFWON’ 1 TFWPWN

Table 3-302

3. Controlling the Transfer Bias Constant Voltage The microprocessor (U402) on the composite

power supply PCB reads the TFWS (analog signal) from the constant voltage control circuit while the transfer DC bias is being generated and changes thedutyratiosothattheapplicationvoltage remains constant, thereby controlling the TFWPWM signal.

4. Correcting theTransfer Biai Voltage Level (ATVC control) To compensate for changes in the transfer

efficiency caused by changes in the environment or deterioration of the transfer roller, the machine automatically corrects the application voltage level of the transfer bias.

During initial rotation after the Copy Start key is pressed, a constant current (-10 uA) is sent to the transfer roller. The microprocessor (U402) on the composjte power supply PCB reads the transfer roller application voltage from the constant control circuit, and the result is sent to the microprocessor (Q301) on the DCcontroller, which in turndetermines the voltage to be applied to the transfer roller.

This control mechanism is executed once during initial rotation after the Copy Start key is pressed; --’ therefore, the application voltage can never change I during continuous copying.

5. Current Limiter Circuit (transfer bias) If changes in the environment or the like causes

an overcurrent to flow to the secondary side of the transformer (T202) while the transfer bias is being generated, thecurrent limitercircuit starts control to make sure that no current greater than 50 pA flows.

6. Current LimiterCircuit(cleaning bias) If changes in the environment or the like causes

an overcurrent to flow to the secondary side of the transformer (T202) while the cleaning bias is being generated, the current limitercircuit starts control to make sure that no current greater than 10 pA flows. ,,-

2. Switching the Voltage Level of the Static Eliminator Bias

The microprocessor (U402) on the composite power supply PCB generates the JCTL signal (analog signal) under the control of the microprocessor (Q301) on the DC controller PCB, thereby causing the secondary side of the main transformer (T202) to turn ON; the bias forthe static eliminator is generated by increasing the high- voltage output from the main transformer (T202).

The JLVCTL signal is used to switch between output voltages 2.5 and 4.0 KV.

When the JCTL signal turns ON, the drive circuit turns ON to generate the static eliminator bias.

3. Ensuring Separation of Thin Paper In certain environments, the machine can fail to

separate thin paper. If such is the case, you may keep the application

voltage to the static eliminator to 4.0 kV at all times to improve separation from the drum.

Use service mode No. 506 to switch the separation static eliminator output voltage. (See p, 3-130.)

The application voltage is read as the BIAS signal (analog signal) from the developing DC bias voltage detection circuit while the developing bias DC component is being applied and is used to control the output voltage to a constant level.

The main transformer (T202) is driven by the drive signal (MPWM) from the microprocessor (U402). In addition to the foregoing functions, the main transformer (T202) serves as the transformer for DC power supply and other high-voltage loads.

1. Outline The machine is equipped with an automatic

density correction (AE) function that controls the DC component of the developing bias to suit the density of the original used. As long as the original has an even density, the machine will adjust the DC component of the developing bias to generate fogging-free copies.

The DC component that has been adjusted in AE mode may be checked on the copy density indicator on the control panel.

In this condition, the reflected light within the area shown in Figure 3-317 is checked by the AE sensor (photodiode), and the result is sent to the DC controller PCB.

r --.. : @ If the toner is more than a specific level,

Since toner exists around the toner level sensor, the AC bias generated by the sensor is greater than the reference signal. In this condition, the output of the comparator circuit goes ‘1’ and the toner absent signal (TEP”) goes ‘0’.

@ If toner is less than a specific level, Since toner around the toner level sensor @ decreases, the AC bias generated by the sensor decreases. On the other and, the output voltage remains high since the reference signal remains unchanged. The difference in potential causes the output of the comparator circuit to go ‘0’ and the toner

1. Outline

The set-back mechanism is used under the following conditions: 1. Coov Paoer Size

The machine uses a set-back method and a separation flapper during continuous two-sided or overlay copying. The term set-back method refers toamethodofpreventingdoublefeeding by stacking (tiling) sheets of paper in the limited space of the duplexing unit. The presence of the separation flapper at the outlet of the duplexing unit serves to improve separation of sheets.

paperfrom its tray and which is capableofcontinuous pick-up operation.

The copy paper on the tray is detected by the multifeeder paper sensor (PS5).

The copy paper on the tray is forced against the pick-up roller by the paper guide plate; the pick-up roller starts to rotate when it receives drive from the main motor (Ml) through a clutch.

The pick-up roller and the separation pad serve to make sure that no more than a single sheet of copy paper is sent to the registration roller.

The above series of operations is executed for each pick-up.

The rear end of the fixing heater is also equipped with a thermistor (TH2) to check for overheating.

Drive roller

When the drive roller rotates, the fixing film rotates, causing the pressure roller to rotate. Part of the innersideof thefixingfilm is heated by the fixing heater.

The temperatureof the fixing heater is monitored by the thermistor (THl), and its output is sent to the microprocessor on the DC controller PCB as the fixing heater temperature detection signal (THI). Fixing cleaning roller

Based on the value of the THI signal, the microprocessor on the DC controller PCB changes the fixing heater drive signal (HTRD) to control the temperature of the fixing heater.

3. Controlling the Supply Power to the Fixing Heater

The temperature of the fixing heater is controlled by performing phase control on the power supplied to the fixing heater.

The resistance of the plane-shaped heater used forthefixing heaterissubjecttoproductionvariation from machine to machine.

To prevent problems, you need to enter the resistance value in service mode No. 304 whenever you have replaced the fixing heater so that the DC controller may perform phase control to suit each specific heater.

,r--\ 4. Detecting Overheating df the End of the Fixing Heater The rear end of the machine’s fixing heater is

equipped with a sub thermistor (TH2) to detect and prevent overheating of the end of the fixing heater. This consideration is made to prevent damage to the fixing film caused by overheating occurring as a result of overheating on the area of the fixing not covered by paper during copying operation, as when making copies smaller than 85 in continuous mode. a. If the temperature of TH2 exceeds 245°C during

thefirst 10copiesincontinuous mode, thefixing control target temperature is lowered by 5°C.

b. If the temperature of TH2 exceeds 250°C the following takes place in relation to the temperature selected in service mode: i. control 0

The gap between sheets of paper will be increased throughout the subsequent ten copies.

ii. control 1 to control 4 The gap between sheets of paper will be increased after the tenth copy.

If the temperature still increases despite the increase in the sheet gap and TH2 exceeds 265°C the ongoing copying operation is stopped and the power will be turned OFF. At this time, ‘EOOl’ data will be stored in memory.

b. Thermal Fuee (FUl)

C.

If the temperature around the thermal fuse exceeds the fuse rating, the thermal fuse will blow to cut off the power to the fixing heater. Heater ON Detection PCB (230V model) The heater ON detection PCB detects how long the fixing heater drive signal (HTRD) remains OFF and if it finds an error, it will turn OFF the power. At this time, ‘E004’ data will be stored in memory.

5. Protection Mechanism The machine is equipped with the following

protection mechanisms to prevent malfunction of the fixing heater:

Thermistor (THl, TH2) The microprocessor on the DC controller monitors the voltage of the thermistor, and if it detects abnormally high or low temperature it will cut off the power to the heater and will turn OFF the machine’s power. At this time, ‘EOOI’ through ‘E003’ data will be stored in memory. If THl is 260% or more and TH2 is 270°C or more for 0.3 set or more, the heater error detection signal (HTNG) of the DC controller willturnOFFtherelay(RL101)onthecomposite power supply PCB to cut off the power to the fixing heater and will turn OFF the power.

The fixing film motor (M4) is used to physically correct the position of the fixing film.

When displacementofthefixingfilm isdetected, the DC controller rotates the fixing film motor, thereby moving the rear side of the tension roller up and down so that the fixing film will be moved to the center.

If the fixing film shifts to the rear, the tension roller is moved down to move the fixing film toward the front. ,

If the fixing film shifts to the front, on the other hand, the tension roller is moved up to move the fixing film to the rear.

The fixing film position is controlled at all times by performing the above series of operations. If the displacement is too large that it cannot be corrected by this mechanism, errorcode ‘E007’will be indicated. (See p.3-134.)

6. Power Supply Circuitry

The machine’s power supply unit uses a single main transformer (TlOl) to supply DC power and fluorescent lamp power.

AC power is supplied to the DC power supply when the power switch (SW846) and the door switch are turned ON.

When the power switch on the control panel is pressed, a signal is sent to the composite power supply unit for generation of internal power supply (Vaux).

Then, the microprocessor (U402) starts up to turn on the relays RLIOI and RL103 to supply power. The DC power supply unit generates +20 V, +24 V, and +5 V.

,,,--, When the power switch is pressed once again, the microprocessor turns off the relay RL103; then,

it turns off 0105 and Vaux to stop supplying power. Since DC power to the DC controller circuit will

be cut off in this condition, the machine is equipped with a lithium battery (BATBOI) to back up the RAM (Cl308) in the DC controller circuit.

C. Detecting Errors on the Power Supply PC6

The microprocessor (U402) and LED501 on the composite power supply PCB checks for errors; if an error is identified, the microprocessor (U402) communicateswith the DC controller to indicate the results of self diagnosis on the display or to flash LED501 to alert the user.

l Detecting Overcurrent in the Low-Voltage Power Supply If the composite power supply PCB identifies an

error in any of the DC loads or overcurrent caused by wire trapping, it flashes the LED.

l Communication Error between DC Controller PC0 and Composite Power Supply PC0 If an error occurs in the communication between

the DC controller PCB and the composite power supply PCB, ‘E240’ is indicated as soon as the DC controller PCB identifies an error. In addition, LED ’ is flashed at intervals of 5 set when the composite power supply PCB identifies an error.

l Data Error in the High-Voltage Output If the difference between the actual control

value and the setting associated with the high voltage generated by the microprocessor (U402) is more than a specific value, the microprocessor (U402)communicateserrordatatotheDCcontroller PCB to indicate ‘E064’.

Initializing Back-Up Error Codes If the self-diagnosis mechanism has turned ON,

you can reset the machine by turning OFF and then ON the power switch, unless the error is repre- sented by ‘EOOO’, ‘EOOI’, ‘E002’, “E003’, ‘E004’, or ‘E007’. This is to prevent the user from resetting the machine thereby damaging the heater inside the fixing assembly or the fixing film.

If ‘EOOO’, ‘EOOl’, ‘E002’, “E003’, ‘E004’, or’E007’ is indicated, remove the cause of the error and perform the following: 1) Open the front door, and insert the door switch

actuator. 2) While holding down the service mode switch

(SW850) on the DC controller, press the power switch.

3) When the power has been removed in about 2 set, turn ON the power switch once again.

,_ --.\ I. SELECTING THE SITE

Keep the following in mind when selecting the site of installation; if possible, pay a visit to the user’s before the delivery of the machine. l The site must provide a power outlet that may be

used exclusively for the machine and that meets the rating HO%.

,--..

l The site must be 45.5” to 90.5OF (7.5’ to 30°C) in temperature and 10% to 90% in humidity. In particular,avoidareasnearwaterfaucets, boilers, humidifiers, or refrigerators.

l Avoid areas near sources of fire, areas subject to dust or ammonium gas, or areas exposed to the direct rays of the sun; if necessary, provide cur- tains to shut out the sun.

l The site must be well ventilated. l Make sure that the floorwill remain in contact with

the copier’s feet and will keep the copier level. l Make sure that there will be work space that

meets the measurements shown in Figure 5-101;

in other words, there must be distances A and B around the copier when measured with its front door open.

II. UNPACKING AND INSTALLING ITHE COPIER --\

When a metal part is brought in from a cold to warm environment, droplets of water can develop on the surface of the part. This phenomenon is called condensation, and condensation in a copier can lead to faulty images. If the copier has been moved from a cold to warm place, leave it alone for about one hour or more before unpacking it.
