INTRODUCTION

This Service Manual uses the following conventions:


1. Each chapter provides outlines of functions in relation to electrical and mechanical
systems involved, and the descriptions cover the timing at which each component is
operated.
In the diagram, indicates a path of mechanical drive, while given
with a signal name indicates the flow of an electric signal.
The expression “turn on the power” refers to turning on the power switch, closing the
front door, or closing the delivery door, ultimately supplying the machine with
power.
2. In explaining the machine’s digital circuits, the level of voltage is expressed as being
‘1’ when high or ‘0’ when low. The actual level of voltage, however, differs from cir-
cuit to circuit.
The machine uses CPUs; however, since their internal mechanisms cannot be
checked in the field, this manual omits explanation of their operations.
As a rule, PCBs are not to be repaired in the field, and this manual limits the explana-
tions of the PCBs to providing general descriptions with block diagrams. The de-
scriptions cover either “from sensors to control functions or the inputs of PCBs pos-
sessing drive functions” or “from the outputs of PCBs possessing drive functions to
loads.” Block diagrams by function are given as needed.
The descriptions in the manual are subject to change to accommodate improvements
or the like made to the product. Major changes will be communicated in the form of
Service Information bulletins.

All service persons are expected to go through this Service Manual and the aforemen-
tioned bulletins and acquire a thorough understanding of the machine, thereby equipping
himself/herself with the skill and the ability to identify faults in the machine and, ultimately,
maintaining the quality and the functions of the machine.

Points to Note When Turning Off the Main Power Switch

Be sure to turn off the main power switch and disconnect the power plug before starting
to disassemble the machine.

Leakage Breaker
If a service call is made because the leakage breaker is off and, therefore, the machine
cannot be turned on, go through the following:
1. Make a check on electrical continuity: i.e., a short between primary and ground or a
short between primary terminals.
2. When checking for electrical continuity, keep in mind that you may have to remove
units or covers to look for wire biting.
3. If any unit is found to be faulty, replace the unit.
4. When the machine is free from a fault, turn on the leakage breaker.
5. When the machine has warmed up normally, check to see if the leakage breaker is nor-
mal (using the test button).
6. If the AC unit is found to be free of a fault, contact the Service Department of the Sales
Company with information about the operating environment; specifically, model name,
conditions at the site (as noted when the power shut down), weather (thunder, etc.),
source of noise in the vicinity.

Warning: Do not turn on the leakage breaker without first checking the AC power sup-
ply. Otherwise, the existing fault can lead to a serious accident (activation of
the indoor leakage breaker; electric shock, smoking, flaming).

CHAPTER 1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

1 Features
1. High-speed, high-quality office machine that supports A2 paper.
• It supports A2 paper for both originals and copies.
• It generates 40 A4 copies per minute or 14 A2 copies per minute.
• It has a reading resolution at time of copying of 600 × 600 dpi.
• It makes copies in 256 gradations.
2. Large-capacity image memory.
• It comes with 32-MB image memory as standard, and allows expansion up to 96 MB.
• It uses image memory and enables making as many copies as needed by reading the
original only once (ultimately increasing copying efficiency).
3. Duplex Unit
• It turns out double-sided copies without stacking the sheets in the duplexing assembly,
enabling a smooth flow of operation and a higher productivity.
4. Large source of paper.
It allows the construction of a source of paper accommodating as many as 1050 sheets.
• standard 3 front cassettes
upper cassette 500 × 1
lower cassette 250 × 2
• multifeeder: 50 sheets
5. LED image exposure.
It uses a LED array to expose images (instead of a laser) for a higher productivity when
large-size paper is used.
6. No need for the cleaning of the photosensitive drum, thus no waste toner.
It uses a type of toner which can be reused, and collects toner remaining from transfer
into its developing assembly, eliminating waste toner. The absence of a cleaning mecha-
nism for the photosensitive drum promises a longer drum life.
7. Supports A2 paper, and accommodates the DADF-F1 (option).
The DADF-F1 is capable of processing paper as large as A2. The use of RDF mode en-
ables making double-sided copies.
8. Supports A3 paper, and accommodates the Stapler Sorter-M1 (option).
The Stapler Sorter-M1 is a 10-bin stapler sorter capable of processing paper as large as
A3, i.e., delivering, stacking, and stapling the sheets. (It staples a stack of up to 30
sheets thick.)

6 Safety
6.1 Safety of Toner
Toner is a non-toxic material composed of small amounts of dye. If your skin or clothes
came into contact with it, remove as much of it as possible, and then wash with water.
Do not use warm water, which would turn the toner into jell and cause it to fuse with the
fibers of the clothes (resisting removal permanently).
Be sure also not to bring toner into contact with vinyl, which tends to dissolve upon con-
tact.

Do not throw toner into fire to avoid explosion.

CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATIONS

a. Turning On and Off the Main Motor


When the main motor drive signal (MAMTR*) goes ‘0’, the activation of the control cir-
cuit on the main motor driver PCB generates drive current to drive the main motor.
When the drive signal goes ‘1’, on the other hand, the output of the control signal stops,
and the absence of the drive signal keeps the motor still.

b. Controlling the Main Motor to a Constant Speed


The machine’s main motor is controlled to a constant speed. The motor is controlled by
the driver PCB, which causes the reference pulse signals from the main motor PCB and the
clock pulses generated by the rotation of the motor to match in terms of frequency and
phase.
At this time, the signal (MAMTR_LD*=0) is sent to the DC controller PCB to indicate
that the main motor is rotating at a constant speed.

c. Detecting an Error (E01)


If a discrepancy occurs in the rotation of the main motor for some reason, the signal used
to indicate rotation at a constant speed (MAMTR_LD*) goes ‘1’, causing the machine to
stop all operations for an error in the main motor and indicate ‘E010’ on the control panel.

a. Turning On and Off the Feed Motor


When the feed motor drive signal (PEMTR*) goes ‘0’, the activation of the control circuit
on the feed motor driver PCB generates drive current to turn on the feed motor.
When the drive signal goes ‘1’, on the other hand, the output of the control signal stops,
and the absence of drive current keeps the feed motor still.

b. Controlling the Feed Motor to a Constant Speed


The machine controls the feed motor to a constant speed, ensuring that its rotation is con-
stant.
The driver PCB controls the rotation of the feed motor by ensuring that the reference
pulse signals (PEMTR_CLK) that arrive at the feed motor PCB and the clock pulses gener-
ated by the rotation of the motor match in terms of the frequency and the phase of the clock
pulses.
The signal PEMTR_LD*=0 is sent to the DC controller PCB to indicate that the feed mo-
tor is rotating at a constant speed.

c. Detecting an Error (E014)


If a discrepancy occurs in the rotation of the feed motor for some reason, the signal used
to indicate rotation at a constant speed (PEMTR_LD*) goes ‘1’, causing the machine to stop
all operations and indicate ‘E014’ on the control panel.

1 Outline of Operations
1.1 Outline
The major components of the original exposure system include the lamp 1 and the lamp 2,
the No. 1 mirror base and the No. 2 mirror base (which form the optical path running from
the copyboard to the CCD), and the scanner motor used to drive the scanner.
The reproduction ratio in main scanning direction is changed as part of image processing
using line memory; that in sub scanning direction is changed by varying the speed at which
the No. 1 mirror mount is moved.

CHAPTER 3 ORIGINAL EXPOSURE

1.2 Basic Sequence of Operations of the Original Exposure


System
a. Initial Operations
When power is supplied, the No. 1 mirror base and the No. 2 mirror base move to home
position, and the scanning lamp is turned on, standing by for the next operation. A specific
period of time thereafter, the scanning lamp is turned off (held in home position).
When the heater of the scanning lamp reaches a specific temperature, the scanning lamp is
turned on in home position; then, the No. 1 mirror base and the No. 2 mirror base are moved
so that the standard white plate may be read. The mirror bases are made to go back and forth
twice (for shading correction), and the scanning lamp is turned off (held in home position).

b. Reading an Original
When the Start key is pressed, the scanning lamp is turned on in home position; then, the
No. 1 mirror base and the No. 2 mirror base are moved so that the standard white plate may
be read; they are farther moved so that the original may be read starting at a specific point.
When the original has been read, the No. 1 mirror base and the No. 2 mirror base are re-
tuned to home position and made to stand by for the next operation.
The light from the lamp of the No. 1 mirror base is directed to the surface of the original,
and the reflected light is guided through the No. 1 mirror on the No. 1 mirror base and the
No. 2 mirror on the No. 2 mirror base and then through lenses to ultimately reach the CCD,
in which the light is converted into electric signals (photoconversion).

2 Scanner Drive System


The No. 1 mirror base and the No. 2 mirror base are driven by the scanner motor (M11).
The scanner motor is a stepping motor, and is controlled by the scanner control PCB.
The position of the No. 1 mirror base is monitored by the scanner home position sensor
(PS44).

CHAPTER 3 ORIGINAL EXPOSURE

3.2 Pre-Heating the Scanning Lamp


The scanning lamp is supplied with power so that its intensity will reach an optimum
level faster than otherwise after the Start key is pressed, and this function is called “pre-heat-
ing.”

3.3 Turning On and Off the Scanning Lamp


The scanning lamp is turned on or off in response to the control signal from the scanner
control PCB, used to determine the voltage applied to the lamp.

3.4 Detecting an Error


If the scanning lamp fails to turn off in response to the control signal or another fault ex-
ists, the scanner control PCB turns off the power supplied to the scanning lamp, and stops
the machine operation.
As a result, the control panel will indicate any of the following codes:

E201
When the power is turned on or while the No. 1 mirror base and the No. 2
mirror base are returned after a reading operation, the home position sensor
does not generate a signal with the motor operating at a specific number of
pulses.
The motor fuse has melted.
E222
The reading of the thermistor is 0 (or less) 2 min after the lamp heater unit
1 is supplied with power.
E225
When the output of the lamp is received by the CCD, the output after A/D
conversion is under the slice line, which is used to ensure a specific level of
image quality.
E226
The scanner control PCB cooling fan is still.
The lamp fuse has melted.

4 Identifying the Sizes of Originals


4.1 Outline
The size of an original may be identified by either of two ways: using reflection-type sen-
sors mounted under the copyboard glass or using the original width/length sensor of the
feeder.

4.2 Identification by Reflection-Type Sensors


Reflection type sensors are mounted under the copyboard glass, and they are used to
monitor specific points of the copyboard at all times.
When an original is placed on the copyboard glass, the sensors either remain off or turn
on, indicating the presence/absence of paper. See T03-402-01.
The following diagram shows the relationship between the points of measurement and
different original sizes. (Each point of measurement is indicted by a circle .)

2.2 CCD
A single CCD is a 1-line image sensor, consisting of 5150 photocells, and each CCD cov-
ers about 1/2 of a line in main scanning direction. The signals photo-converted by its light-
receiving block are subjected to A/D conversion so that they may be expressed in 8-bit data.

2.3 Linking the CCDs


The machine uses a pair of CCDs to collect optical information in main scanning direc-
tion: CCD1 and CCD2. The use of two linked CCDs offers more photocells, enabling higher
resolutions, larger copy sizes, and higher copying speeds.

CHAPTER 4 IMAGE PROCESSING

3.3 Shading Correction


The CCD output cannot be uniform even if the original has a uniform density and the
light reflected by it is uniform for the following factors:

• The sensitivity of each CCD pixel is different from that of another.


• The degree of transmission of light through a lens differs between the center and the pe-
ripheral of the lens.
• The intensity of the scanning lamp differs between its middle and edges.
• The scanning lamp deteriorates.

Shading correction is executed to correct these factors. The light reflected by the standard
white plate is stored in SRAM as white reference data, and the intensity occurring when the
scanning lamp is off is stored as black reference data. The image signals are then corrected
when an original is read using these sets of data.

CHAPTER 4 IMAGE PROCESSING

3.4 Background Correction


When the density adjustmetn is set to auto, background correction (V’/W’) is applied to
the image signal. W’ is varied according to a pre-established coefficient when the image sig-
nal V’ is judged to represent the background color.

3.5 CCD Seam Correction


Processing preceding this block is based on a 1/2 line in scanning direction (pipeline).
This block serves to integrate the 1/2-line image signals into whole-line image signals.
To make the seam between the image from the CCD1 and the CCD2 less conspicuous,
weighting is executed using units of 63 pixels (in main scanning direction).

3.6 Enlargement/Reduction Processing


The read start position in main scanning direction is subjected to processing. The image
signals of adjacent dots are once converted into data representing a resolution eight times as
high (bi-linear correcton). The result is then processed using a built-in conversion table to
skip a specific number of dots.
For sub scanning direction, the speed at which the scanner is moved is varied to change
the width of the scanning line in relation to the original, consequently changing the repro-
duction ratio.
Owing to the limit imposed on the speed of the movement of the scanner, data units are
also skipped when they are written to memory for sub scanning direction if a ratio lower
than 40% is selected.

When text mode is selected, the machine uses a density correction curve possessing a
steep angle so as to increase the contrast. When text/photo or photo mode is selected, on the
other hand, a curve that ensures faithful reproduction of the density of the original with
good gradation is selected.

4.5 Dither Processing


In dither processing, noise (i.e. dither) of a fixed value is added to the image signal, and
the result is subjected to binary processing using a specific slice level. This processing is
used in photo mode.

4.6 Error Diffusion


In error diffusion, noise is added to the image signal, and the result is subjected to binary
processing using a specific slice level. Unlike dither processing, however, the noise is deter-
mined by the image signal itself. This processing is used in text mode and text/photo mode.

2 Primary Charging Assembly


2.1 Outline
The machine’s charging method is a corona type, which makes use of a charging wire.
The following circuit is associated with the control of the primary charging assembly, and
it has the following functions:
1. Turning on and of the current of the primary charging assembly.
2. Controlling the current of the primary charging assembly to a specific level (constant
current control).
3. Cutting off the output of the primary charging assembly in response to a short circuit.
4. Monitoring the output of current from the primary charging assembly.
The level of charging of the photosensitive drum is proportional to the level of current
that flows to it. The machine uses the following circuitry to make sure that a specific level of
charging potential may be obtained even when the level of corona charging fluctuates be-
cause of changes in the environment.
The output of the corona current is turned on and off in response to the signal HV1 from
the DC controller PCB.

2.2 Operations
1. When HV1=1, the high-voltage power supply (HVP1) is off.
When HV1=0, the high-voltage power supply (HVP1) is on.
2. If, for instance, corona current of a level higher than specified flows from the primary
charging assembly because of a change in the environment, the current control circuit of
the high-voltage power supply PCB operates to decrease the output voltage, thereby
controlling the flow of current to the primary charging assembly to a specific level.
3. In the event of a short circuit in the high-voltage output or electrical leakage, the ma-
chine will detect overcurrent and will cut off the output immediately. The machine is re-
set when HV1=1 (off).
4. The current output to the primary charging assembly is normal: HV1_SET=1.
The current output to the primary charging assembly is faulty, HV1_SET=0.

2.4 Cleaning Mechanism for the Primary Charging Wire


2.4.1 Outline
The machine is equipped with a mechanism that automatically cleans the primary charg-
ing assembly.
The primary charging wire is cleaned by turning a screw (driven by a small-size motor)
that rotates to move pads back and forth.

The primary charging wire is cleaned under the following conditions:


1. The surface temperature of the roller of the fixing assembly is 40°C or lower (immedi-
ately after the main power switch is turned on).
2. When ‘adjust /clean’ in user mode is executed to clean the wire.
3. The cleaning mode is executed. (The intervals may be 100, 200, or 300 counts, i.e., the
number of copying operations, in service mode: OPTION>BODY>WIRE-CLN. At time
of shipment, '0' is selected so that cleaning is executed only immediately after the main
power switch is turned on.)

3 Transfer Charging Assembly


3.1 Outline
The machine’s transfer method is a static transfer type that uses corona charging.
The following circuitry is used to control the transfer charging assembly, and it has the
following functions:
1. Turning on and off the current of the transfer charging assembly.
2. Controlling the current of the transfer charging assembly to a specific level (constant
current control).
3. Controlling the current of the transfer charging assembly to a specific level.
4. Cutting off the output in response to a short circuit.
5. Detecting the level of current of the transfer charging assembly.
The transfer characteristics are determined by the level of transfer current flowing to the
transfer charging assembly, and the output of the machine’s transfer charging assembly is
controlled so that stable transfer characteristics may be obtained even if the level of corona
charging fluctuates because of changes in the environment.
The output of the corona current is turned on or off using the signal HV_XFR from the
DC controller PCB.

ing assembly because of a change in the environment, the current control circuit of the
high-voltage power supply PCB operates to decrease the output voltage, thereby con-
trolling the flow of current to the transfer charging assembly to a specific level.
3. Controlling the Level of the Current of the Transfer Charging Assembly
The voltage level of the TR_ANLG signal is used to control the level of current let to
flow to the transfer charging assembly.
The voltage level of the TR_ANLG signal is set in service mode.
4. In the event of a short circuit in the high-voltage output or electrical leakage, the ma-
chine will detect the resulting overcurrent and will cut off the output.
The machine is reset when HV_XFR=1 (off).
5. When the output of current to the transfer charging assembly is normal, TR-ST=1.
When the output of current to the transfer charging assembly is faulty, TR_SET=0.

3.3 Checking the Operations


Connect the meter to the check points CP-21 and CP-22.
Operate the transfer charging assembly using PART-CHK in service mode or by making a

If the transfer charging assembly is operating normally, a voltage of about 1 V must be
present at the check points. The voltage is 0 V while the transfer charging assembly is at
rest. (For the high-voltage power supply PCB, see F05-203-01.)

controlling the drive circuit of the separation charging assembly.
3. In the event of a short circuit in the high-voltage output or electrical leakage, the ma-
chine will detect the resulting overcurrent and will stop the output.
The machine is reset when HV-SEP=1.
4. If the output of current to the separation charging assembly is normal, SEP-SET=1.
If the output of current to the separation charging assembly is faulty, SEP-SET=0.

4.3 Checking the Operations


Connect the meter to the check points CP-31 and CP-32 on the PCB.
Operate the separation charging assembly using PART-CHK in service mode or by mak-
ing a copy.
If the separation charging assembly is operating normally, a voltage of about 4 V must be
present at the check points. The voltage is 0 V when the separation charging assembly is not
operating. (Fro the high-voltage power supply PCB, see F05-203-01.)

5 Developing Assembly
5.1 Outline
The machine’s developing assembly uses a contact developing method (with a length of
contact of 5 to 6 mm), in which the developing cylinder is brought into firm contact with the
photosensitive drum (by means of a rubber roller).
The machine's developing system is also equipped with a mechanism to collect toner re-
maining from transfer while development takes place (photosensitive drum cleaning mecha-
nism). The machine's highly efficient transfer process leaves little toner at the end of trans-
fer, whose amount, if any, will not affect the charging/exposure process that follows.
Any residual toner will be collected into the developing assembly during the develop-
ment, not allowing the previous image to affect the next image and, ultimately, enabling a
cleanerless cycle of operations.
The major components of the developing assembly are the developing cylinder, supply
roller, roller blade, toner level sensor (TLS1), and toner stirring rod. All of these except the
sensor are rotated by the drive from the main motor (M1).
When the developing assembly push-on motor (M1) rotates, the developing locking cam
rotates, and the encoder attached to the shaft of the cam brings the developing assembly to a
stop at a specific position so that it may be locked in place.
The toner is a non-magnetic, single-component toner, and is deposited in a thin layer on
the developing cylinder by the work of static electricity.

5.2 Controlling the Developing Bias


5.2.1 Outline
Of the components of the developing assembly, a developing bias is applied to the devel-
oping cylinder, supply roller, roller blade edges, and roller blade middle.
When the drum makes an initial rotation, a positive output is applied from when the area
with primary charging potential reaches the nip area of the developing assembly, thereby
preventing deposit of toner on the photosensitive drum. Then, the output is made negative
from the area where primary charging potential exits to develop the exposed image area.
Thereafter, a positive output is applied from when the area where primary charging stops
reaches the nip area; this continues until the last rotation ends and the main motor stops.
The machine uses negative toner so that the image is developed on the photosensitive
drum when the drum is positive (in relation to the developing cylinder); when the photosen-
sitive drum is negative (in relation to the developing cylinder), on the other hand, the toner
is collected to the developing sleeve from the drum, and the drum is cleaned.

5.2.2 Functions of the Developing Biases


A developing bias of a different voltage level is applied to the supply roller, roller blade
edge, and roller blade middle (in relation to the developing cylinder), each having its own
function.

Supply roller Potential −350 V in relation to the developing cylinder


Function Collects the toner remaining on the developing
sleeve after development; the toner is replaced with
new toner for a new supply.
Roller blade (middle) Potential Same as that on the developing cylinder
Function Deposits a thin, even layer of toner on the
developing cylinder.
Roller blade (ends) Potential +400 V in relation to the developing cylinder.
Function Collects toner remaining on the developing cylinder,
thereby preventing the formation of a layer of toner
on the edges of the developing cylinder.

The toner is colleted by the roller blade so that no layer of toner will be formed on the
edges of the developing cylinder.

5.3 Developing Bias Control Circuit


5.3.1 Outline
A DC bias is applied to the developing cylinder during copying, and the DC bias is kept
to about −250 V.

5.3.2 Developing Bias Control Circuit


The following circuitry is used to control the developing bias, and has the following func-
tions:
1. Turning on and off the developing bias.
2. Switching the developing bias between positive and negative.
3. Controlling the voltage of the negative developing bias to a specific level.
4. Cutting the output in response to a short circuit.
5. Detecting a negative output of the developing bias output 2.

5.3.3 Operations
1., 2. Turning on and off the developing bias.
When D_BIAS=0, the developing bias is ON.
When BIASCH=1, the developing bias is positive.
When BIASCH=0, the developing bias is negative.
When D_BIAS=1, the developing bias is OFF.
3. Controlling the Voltage of the Negative Developing Bias to a Specific Level
The voltage level of the BN_ANLG signal is used to control the voltage level of the
negative developing bias.
The voltage level of the BN_ANLG signal, in turn, is set in service mode.
4. If the output of the developing bias 2 short-circuits or electrical leakage occurs, the ma-
chine will detect overcurrent and immediately cut off the output. The machine may be
reset when D_BIAS=1.
5. If the negative output of the developing bias output 2 is normal, DBIASST=1.
If the negative output of the developing bias output 2 is faulty, DBIASST=0.

CHAPTER 5 IMAGE FORMATION

5.3.4 Checking the Operations


Connect the positive probe of the meter to the check point CP-41 and the negative probe
to CP-42.
Using PART-CHK in service mode, generate a positive or negative developing bias; or
make a single copy. The developing bias will be positive at first, change to negative, and
then change back to positive before the operation stops.
As long as the output of the developing bias is normal, the voltage must be about +0.35 V
when the bias is positive and about −0.25 V when negative.

5.4 Developing Assembly Locking Mechanism


The machine’s developing cylinder is made of a rubber-like material.
The machine is designed so that the developing assembly is pushed by means of a cam
from its rear, and it uses a mechanism to allow for a specific length running across the area
of contact between the photopositive drum and a rubber roller.
If the rubber roller is forced against the photosensitive drum when the machine remains
out of use for a long period, it can cause lines or dents in the surface of the photosensitive
drum. To avoid such a problem, the developing assembly push-on motor is rotated using the
charge stored in advance in the capacitor, thereby releasing the pressure cam and, conse-
quently, the developing assembly from the photosensitive drum.
If the machine is left alone for a long time (about 3 months or more) in a high-tempera-
ture/-humidity environment, certain ingredient of the toner can adhere to the area of contact
between the developing cylinder and the supply roller/roller blade, causing lines on copies.
If such a problem is noted, dry wipe the white lines on the developing cylinder with lint-free
paper, thus removing the deposit.

CHAPTER 5 IMAGE FORMATION

5.5 Controlling the Supply of Toner


5.5.1 Outline
A piezoelectric oscillation type toner sensor (TLS1) is mounted inside the developing as-
sembly to monitor the level of toner inside it.
When the toner inside the developing assembly is at a specific level or more, the output of
the toner sensor is ‘1’; when it drops under the level, output will be ‘0’.
When the absence of toner continues for 4 sec or more while the main motor is operating,
the condition will be detected and the toner supply motor will be turned on to supply toner
from the toner cartridge to the developing assembly. The supply of toner is stopped when
the presence of toner is detected.
In the absence of toner, supply of toner is continued for 5 sec and then is stopped; if the
absence continues for 4 sec or more thereafter, the supply is started once again. The supply
is always stopped as soon as the main motor stops.

5.5.2 Absence of Toner


If the toner sensor detects the absence of toner for 90 sec or more (in terms of a cumula-
tive value over a period during which the main motor is operating), the machine will assume
the absence of toner in the toner cartridge, indicating a message on the control panel to
prompt the replacement of the toner cartridge.
The count may increase by as much as 200 (equivalent of 100 copies of A2, horizontal,
6% chart) after the absence of toner is identified and the Replace Later key is pressed; how-
ever, the message will appear on the control panel at the end of each job.
When as much as 200 counts have been taken after the identification of the absence of
toner, the machine will disable the Start key.

5.5.3 Resetting (toner absent)


When the machine identifies the absence of toner, it will execute a specific operation to
determine whether it may allow the condition to be reset after “the front door is opened, the
toner cartridge is slid out and then in, and the front door is closed” or after “the power is
turned off and then on.”
The machine turns on the toner supply motor to supply toner from the toner cartridge to
the developing assembly; if the developing assembly becomes full with toner, the machine
will reset itself.

1 Outline of Operations
1.1 Outline
The machine’s pick-up/feed system includes a three-cassette unit, duplex unit, and
multifeeder, and the machine uses center reference, in which paper is moved along the cen-
ter of the machine’s pickup/feed path.
After it is picked up from the cassette or the multifeeder, a sheet of paper is controlled so
that it will match the leading edge of the image on the photosensitive drum with reference to
the output of the paper entry sensor 1 (inside), and is then sent to the transfer, separation,
feed, and fixing processes to finally reach the delivery tray.
As many as 22 sensors are used to monitor the movement of paper.
F06-101-01 shows the arrangement of sensors (electric input components), and F06-101-
02 provides a conceptual diagram to show how motors and clutches/solenoids (electric out-
put components) are driven; the mechanisms used to drive the cassettes are excluded.

1.2 Basic Operations of Pickup from the Cassette


1.2.1 Pickup Operations
The paper inside the cassette is held up by means of a lifter so that the paper and the
pickup roller remain in contact with each other at time of pickup.
The pickup roller is driven by the feed motor (M3). The pickup roller moves down in ref-
erence to the feed roller, and it comes into contact with paper in time for pickup.
The pickup roller is moved down by the pickup roller DOWN solenoid (SL3 through
SL5).
The paper is moved forward, and the feed roller and the separation roller operate to make
sure that only one sheet of paper is moved into the paper path.
The sheet is then moved as far as the No. 2 registration roller by the work of the vertical
path roller and the No. 1 registration roller.
The drive of the No. 1 registration roller is obtained from the feed motor (M3), and is
transmitted through the registration roller clutch (CL6). (See the figure below.)
The following is a table of sensors and sensor signals related to the electric components in
the cassette pickup assembly; a conceptual diagram of how they are driven follows.

CHAPTER 6 PICKUP/FEED

1.2.3 Operation of the Cassette Lifter


The cassette lifter is operated while the cassette is in the machine, and is driven as needed
to keep the top surface of the stack of paper at a specific level.

a. Driving the Lifter During Copying Operation


The cassette lifter is controlled by the stop plate designed to operate in conjunction with
the up/down movement of the pickup roller.
The stop plate is equipped with a flag, and the lifter is operated for a specific period of
time each time the flag blocks the paper surface sensor (photointerrupter).

1. The pickup roller moves down each time the pickup roller DOWN solenoid turns on to
initiate pickup operation.
The height of the pickup roller changes according to the level of paper.
2. When the level of paper decreases and, as a consequence, the height to which the pickup
roller moves down lowers, the flag of the paper surface sensor blocks the paper surface
sensor, causing the liftup motor to operate for a specific period of time.
3. The rotation of the liftup motor causes the coupling on the motor shaft to rotate, thereby
rotating the lifter shaft. This series of operations in turn rotates the lifter attached to the
lifter shaft, thereby moving up the lifter plate.
4. When the lifter plate moves up, the level of the stack of paper also moves up and, conse-
quently, the height to which the pickup roller moves down rises, causing the flag on the
stop plate operating in conjunction with the pickup roller to stop blocking the pickup
level sensor.

The foregoing operations are repeated until the cassette runs out of paper; all cassette
pickup operations end when the paper absent sensor detects the absence of paper.

b. Releasing the Lifter


The lifter is released mechanically when the cassette is slid out. A spring pin that fits itself
in the coupling of the liftup motor serves to keep the height of the stack to a specific level
by preventing the lifter shaft from rotating.
When the machine is in standby state, the spring pin is supported by the coupling of the
liftup motor; when the cassette is slid out, on the other hand, the spring pin frees itself from
the coupling, letting the lifter plate move down on its own weight.

a. Rotary Drive for the Pickup Unit
The rotary drive for the pickup unit is obtained from the paper feed motor through gears
and a timing belt.

b. Pickup Roller
The drive of the paper feed motor arriving at the pickup unit is used to drive the pickup
roller through the pickup clutch mounted to each holder of the pickup unit.

c. Reference for the Pickup Roller


The pickup roller is moved down or the lifter is moved up when the cassette is slid into
the machine with reference to the position of the feed roller shaft to which the pickup clutch
is mounted.

CHAPTER 6 PICKUP/FEED

d. Moving Up and Down the Pickup Roller


The pickup roller is supported by the pickup holder, and is operated round the feed roller
shaft. The up and down movement of the pickup roller is driven by the pickup retaining
plate 1/2, which is controlled by the pickup roller DOWN solenoid.
1. When the pickup roller DOWN solenoid turns on, the pickup retaining plate 1 rotates
the pickup retaining plate 2.
2. When the pickup retaining plate 2 rotates, the pickup roller moves down to come into
contact with the paper, and starts pickup using the drive from the feed motor.
3. When the solenoid turns off, the spring attached to the pickup retaining plate 2 causes
the pickup roller to move up.

e. Movement of the Separation Roller


The separation roller turns on when the pickup clutch turns on using the support fixing as
its fulcrum. The separation roller is moved up and down using the separation roller retaining
plate (controlled by the separation roller locking solenoid), spring, and separation roller
locking fixing.
1. When the separation roller locking solenoid turns on, the separation roller retaining
plate starts to rotate.
2. The separation roller retaining plate rotates the separation roller locking fixing through a
spring to force the separation roller against the feed roller.
3. When the separation roller locking solenoid turns off, the separation roller moves down
on its own weight.

f. Detecting the Absence of Paper in the Cassette


When the cassette runs out of paper, the paper detecting arm drops through the detecting
hole of the cassette. The paper detecting arm is equipped with a flag, which will block the
paper absent sensor (photointerrupter), identifying the absence of paper inside the cassette.

h. Paper Entry Sensor


The paper entry sensor 1 [1] is located at the center of the registration unit, while the pa-
per entry sensor 2 [2] is located 155 mm from the center (paper center).
The paper entry sensor 2 [2] does not detect paper smaller than A3 horizontal (A4).
This arrangement is in consideration of the fact that the stapler sorter and the duplexing
unit do not support paper larger than the above; the machine will force paper larger than that
(width) out to the center tray or the copy tray (in the case of the stapler sorter, to the center
tray).

1.3 Standby Operations (non-pickup)


The machine operates as follows when the cassette is slid into or out of it.

1.3.1 Moving Down the Pickup Roller/Moving Up the Lifter (sliding in the
cassette)
a. Moving Down the Pickup Roller
When the cassette is slid into the machine while the main power is on, the pickup roller
moves down until it comes into contact with paper in response to the following:
• The size switching dial mounted to the cassette cover mechanically pushes the cassette
paper size detecting switch found on the bottom right of the machine.
• When the cassette size detection mechanism turns on, the pickup roller DOWN solenoid
turns on to move down the pickup roller.

b. Moving Up the Lifter


When the main power is turned on with the cassette inside the machine (or if the cassette
is slid inside while the machine is in standby state), the flag of the retaining plate blocks the
paper sensor as the pickup roller moves down.
The condition cause the liftup motor to turn on, moving up the lifter plate. When the
pickup roller, which is in contact with the paper, moves up to a specific level, the flag of the
retaining plate stops blocking the paper sensor, and the condition causes the lifter motor to
stop, the pickup roller to move back to its uppermost position, and the lifter stops to move
up.

CHAPTER 6 PICKUP/FEED

1.4 Detecting the Level of Paper


The machine is equipped with a mechanism to detect the level of paper remaining in the
cassette, indicating the result in four levels on its control panel.
The level of paper is detected with reference to the flag blocking the paper level sensor
(i.e., the distance over which the lifter moves up).
When the cassette starts to run out of paper, the lifter moves up; when it runs out of paper,
the paper absent sensor (e.g., PH18 of cassette 2) detects the absence of paper.
The following chart shows the relationship between the lifter and the paper level sensor
together with the levels indicated in response to the result of detection.

1.5 Identifying the Size of Paper


1.5.1 Outline
The size of paper is identified by the machine in reference to the setting for the dial on the
cassette by the user.

a. Detecting the Size of Paper


The dial of the cassette may be set to any of 8 settings as shown in the figure below; as
can be seen, the protrusions and the recesses of the size detecting arm engage in different
combinations.
When the dial is set to suit a specific paper size and the cassette is slid into the machine,
the four cassette size detecting switches (for each cassette holder) find out the size of the pa-
per inside the cassette with reference to which protrusions and recesses are engaged, en-
abling the machine’s CPU to identify the size of the paper.

1.5.4 Cassette Sizes


The S cassette differs from the L cassette in terms of size. (See T06-105-02.)
The S cassette is capable of accommodating A3 or smaller.
On the other hand, the L cassette holds paper between A4 and A2.
The inside of the cassette is equipped with side guide plates (side and rear) that must be
manually adjusted.
The side guide plate is not equipped with a sensor, requiring correct adjustment of the
aforementioned rotary switch.

1.6 Multifeeder
1.6.1 Outline
The multifeeder is a mechanism designed to continuously feed sheets of paper stacked on
the multifeeder tray.
The paper stacked on the table is moved by the work of the pickup roller to the feed roller
and then the separation roller.
The pickup roller, feed roller, and separation roller are operated by the drive from the
feeder motor (M3) coming through the multifeeder pickup clutch (CL1).
The work of the feed roller and the separation roller makes sure that only one sheet of pa-
per is picked up and sent to the registration roller 1.
The foregoing series of operations is executed for each pickup of paper.

1.6.4 Manual Feed Reversing Roller Pressure Reducing Solenoid


When thick paper moves past, impact can occur as the trailing edge of paper moves
through the area of contact between the multifeeder feed roller and the manual feed revers-
ing roller, reaching the area where the paper is in contact with the drum and, consequently,
adversely affecting the image.
To limit such impact, the manual feed reversing roller is moved away from the multifeeder
feed roller by means of a solenoid before the leading edge of paper reaches the drum.
The solenoid turns on as soon as the leading edge of paper hits the paper entry sensor 1
(inside), and it turns off when the trailing edge of the paper moves past the sensor.

1.7 Making Overlay Copies


The machine takes advantage of its image memory when making overlay copies, using
the same path used when making single-sided copies.

1.8 Making Double-Sided Copies


1.8.1 Outline
The following figure shows the path used by the machine when making double-sided cop-
ies.
After copying on one side, the delivery solenoid (SL11; duplex tray) is turned on to oper-
ate the flapper, thereby moving the paper to the duplex unit.
Inside the duplex unit, the duplex feed motor rotates in reverse when the paper has moved
past the paper end sensor (PS36), sending it out of the duplex unit for copying on the other
side.

1.8.3 Through-Path Operations


a. Outline
In double-side copying, the sheet to which an image has been copied and fixed on one
side is moved to the duplex unit by the work of the flapper operating in response to the acti-
vation of the solenoid (SL11).
The duplex feed motor (M9) rotates in reverse inside the duplex unit so that the sheet is
switched back and is sent out of the unit for copying on the other side.
At all times, no more than one sheet of paper can exist inside the duplexing unit.

b. Sequence of Operations
For instance, when 6 A4 pages are cop-
ied, the following takes place:
1. The 1st sheet is picked up from the cas-
sette.

1.9 Delivery Assembly


1.9.1 Outline
The machine offers a choice of the following two in service mode for the mode of paper
delivery:
a. Face-down delivery
b. Face-up delivery

a. Face-Down delivery
In this mode, the copied side of a single copy or the odd page of a double-sided copy
faces down upon delivery.
When the sheet moves through the fixing assembly, the delivery flapper solenoid (SL10;
copy tray) remains off so that the sheet will be moved to the center tray.

b. Face-Up Delivery
In this mode, the copied side of a single-sided copy or the odd page of a double-sided
copy faces up upon delivery.
When the sheet is moved to the copy tray (option)/sorter (option) through the fixing as-
sembly, the flapper solenoid (SL10) turns on to guide it to the copy tray/sorter.

1.10 Detecting Jams


1.10.1 Outline
The machine uses as many as 18 sensors to monitor the movement of paper, thus detecting
jams and ensuring proper paper movement (F06-110-01).
The presence/absence of paper or a jam is detected in terms of the presence/absence of pa-
per at appropriate sensors at such times as stored in the CPU on the DC controller PCB.
If the machine detects a jam, it will turn off the feed motor and indicate the presence of a
jam on its control panel.

not turn on).

b. Stationary Jam
After the sensor detects paper, the paper does not leave the sensor within a specific period
of time.

c. Timing Jam
The sensor detects paper before a specific time.

d. Residual Jam
Paper exits in the sensor area at time of power-on.

e. Door Open Jam During Copying Operation


The front cover, right lower cover, or delivery cover is opened during copying operation.

1.2 Controlling the Fixing Temperature


1.2.1 Outline
The surface temperature of the machine’s upper fixing roller is monitored by the fixing
assembly temperature thermistor (TH1*, TH2*), and is controlled by the DC-CPU, which
uses the readings of the thermistor to vary the heater control signal (F_LAMP1).

TH1: for controlling the temperature.


TH2: for detecting overheating.

CHAPTER 7 FIXING

1.2.2 Controlling the Temperature


When the main switch is turned on, the heater turns on, and remains on until the tempera-
ture is 10°C higher than the setting.
When the selected temperature has been reached after the “overshoot,” the heater is made
to repeat turning on and off, thereby maintaining the selected temperature.
Normal printing is possible at the temperature setting ±5°C.

In user mode, the fixing temperature used after printing may be set to any of three set-
tings; a press on the Power Save key causes the machine to enter power save mode, lowering
the fixing temperature to the selected setting and starting sleep state.

CHAPTER 7 FIXING

1.3 Protective Mechanisms for the Fixing System


The machine is equipped with the following protective mechanisms to prevent overheat-
ing of the fixing heater.
The DC-CPU monitors each unit for a fault, and turns off the heater control signal upon
detection of a fault while at the same time indicating an error code on the LCD; it will then
turn off the main power switch.
While an overheating condition exists, the delivery/feed assembly cooling fan is operated
to exhaust the air from around the fixing assembly.
You must execute error clear in service mode (FUNCTION>CLEAR>ERROR) if any of
the follwoing error codes is indicated: see the table and the block diagram that follow for
details:

*DC-CPU: CPU for the DC controller (mounted on the DC controller PCB).

CHAPTER 9 INSTALLATION

1 Selecting the Site


The site of installation must meet the following conditions; if possible, pay a visit to the
user’s before delivery of the machine:

1. The site must provide an exclusive power source (rating ±10%), enabling proper
grounding.
2. The temperature of the site must be between 15° and 30°C and humidity, between 5%
and 80%RH. (Be sure to avoid areas near a water faucet, water boiler, humidifier, and
refrigerator.)
3. The site must not be close to a source of fire and must not be subject to dust, ammonium
gas, or direct rays of the sun. (As necessary, provide curtains to block out the sun.)
4. The level of ozone generated by the machine in operation is not likely to affect the
health of the people around it. Some individuals, however, may find its odor unpleasant,
requiring proper ventilation of the room.
5. The floor of the site must be such that all the feet of the machine will remain in contact
and the machine will remain level.
6. The machine must be kept at least 10 cm away from any wall, and there must be ad-
equate space for the user operating the machine.

2 Unpacking and Installation


When a piece of metal is brought from a cold to warm place, droplets of water can at
times form on its surface. This phenomenon is known as “condensation,” and a copier can
generate black copies if it is subjected to it. To avoid condensation, be sure to leave the ma-

Take extra care not to damage


the photosensitive drum.
The photosensitive drum is
highly susceptible to light, and
exposure to light as weak as
room lighting can cause it to
produce copies with white spots
or black lines; note the follow-
ing to avoid possible problems:
• Try to work within 5 min
when removing a jam.
• If the process unit must be
kept out using servicing
work, put copy paper fresh
out of package over the pho-
tosensitive drum.
• Do not touch the surface of
the photosensitive drum.
• If the surface of the photosen-
sitive drum is soiled, clean it
with a flannel cloth coated
with toner (do not use paper,
lint-free or otherwise).
• Do not clean the surface of
the photosensitive drum by
dry wiping or using a solvent.

■ If you want to find out the cause (part) of a specific problem, see the Cause column.
In the case of the example, i.e., “AC power is absent,” the cause can be the power plug,
covers, or source power.
■ If you want to find out the checks to make or the action to take for a specific problem,
make checks in the indicated sequence: answer Yes or No to each question posed, and
move to the Action column as directed.
■ To isolate the cause of a problem, execute test printing in service mode (test print mode;
the image data for test printing is stored on the DC controller PCB).
■ Of the descriptions related to troubleshooting of image faults/malfunctions, those related
to self diagnosis are given in Chapter 12.

■ When a check on the voltage is required using a meter, you may come across the follow-
ing expression: “measure the voltage between J109-1 (+) and J109-2 (−) on the DC con-
troller PCB.” The symbols + and − indicate the positive and negative probes of the meter;
for the foregoing example, therefore, connect the + probe to J109-1 and the negative
probe to J109-2 to measure the voltage.

2.1 Adjusting the Image Margin and Registration
a. Executing Image Read Start Position Auto Adjustment
Return the settings of the following to those indicated on the service label:
ADJUST>ADJ-XY>ADJ-MAGX, ADJ-MAGY.
1) When the machine is in READY state, fully close the copyboard cover or the DADF
without placing any original on the copyboard glass.
2) Execute the following in service mode: FUNCTION>MISC-R>OFST.
3) See that the setting of the following has bee updated at the end of read start position auto
adjustment: ADJUST>ADJ-XY>, ADJ-X, ADJ.
4) Record the new settings on the service label.

b. Executing Leading Edge Registration Adjustment (cassette, duplex unit)


1) Place A2 horizontal or A3 horizontal in the cassette, and select the cassette.
Be sure to butt the paper against the guide at the rear and the right cassette frame.
2) Select ‘1’ in service mode (TEST>PG>TYPE), and the respective pattern stored in
memory.
3) Make adjustments so that the distance [1] in Figure 11-201-01 is 10 mm ±1 mm from

CHAPTER 11 TROUBLESHOOTING

c. Leading Edge Margin


Return the settings under the following to those recorded on the service label:
ADJUST>BLANK>BLANK-T1, BLANK-T2.
1. BLANK is a setting used to change the image data representing the leading edge of an
image into data expressing a blank width. The blank width shifts in conjunction with the
leading edge registration so that the setting holds true only if the leading edge registra-
tion is correctly adjusted. (in default, margin of 3.0 ±1 mm at BLANK-T1 35 (3.5 mm))
Normally, adjusting the leading edge registration and using the setting of BLANK re-
corded on the service label will create a leading edge margin of an appropriate width.
2. A margin of any width may be obtained by changing BLANK for the leading edge.
3. The leading edge margin for paper whose width is 297 mm or less is determined by the
setting of BLANK-T2.

d. Adjust the Manual Feed Leading Edge Registration


1) Set A2 horizontal or A3 horizontal paper on the manual feed table, and select it as the
source of paper.
Be sure to adjust the paper guide against the width of the paper to prevent skew move-
ment.
2) Select ‘1’ in service mode (TEST>PG>TYPE), and generate the appropriate internal
pattern.
3) Make adjustments so that [1] indicated in F11-201-01 is 10 mm ±1 mm from the lead-
ing edge of paper in service mode: Adjust>Feed-ADJ>MF-VSYC.

e. Adjusting the Horizontal Registration and Left/Right Margin


For each cassette and manual feeder, adjust the horizontal registration for single-sided
copies and the 1st sides of double-sided copies (a total of 9 settings).
service mode (Adjust>Feed-ADJ>ADJ-R-C2/C3/C4)
When the right margin (rear of the machine) is set to 3 mm ±1 mm (standard), the left/
right registration will automatically be adjusted for each default paper size.

Note: For a type of paper whose width is longer (shorter) than the respective default (e.g.,
for A2, 420 mm), the effect will be on the front side, since the reference of paper
placement is to the rear.

per to prevent skew movement.
2) Select ‘singe-sided to double-sided’.
3) Select ‘9’ in service mode (TEST>PG>TYPE), and generate the grid pattern.
4) In the case of delivery to the copy tray, the top will be the second side of a double-sided
copy; in the case of delivery to the inside tray, on the other hand, the bottom will be the
second side of a double-sided copy.
Adjust the margin at the rear of the machine for the second side of double-sided copying
to 3 mm ±1 mm in service mode (Adjust>Feed-ADJ>ADJ-R-C2, ADJ-R-C3, ADJ-R-C3,
ADJ-R-C4, ADJ-R-MF). If skew movement is noted, make adjustments on the rear mar-
gin along the leading edge.

CHAPTER 11 TROUBLESHOOTING

3 Troubleshooting Image Faults


3.1 Making Initial Checks
3.1.1 Site Requirements
a. The voltage of the power source must be as rated (±10%). (The power plug must not be
disconnected at night.)
b. The site must not be subject to high temperature or humidity (e.g., near a water faucet,
water boiler, humidifier). The site, further, must not be near a source of fire or subject to
dust.
c. The site must be kept at 10° to 30°C in temperature and 15% to 80% in humidity while
the machine is in use.
d. The site must be free of ammonium gas.
e. The site must not subject the machine to the direct rays of the sun. Otherwise, curtains
must be provided.
f. The site must be well ventilated.
g. The site must keep the machine level.
h. The site must be able to keep the machine powered at night.
Check the site of installation against the above requirements to see if it meets the standards.

3.1.2 Checking the Originals


Check the originals to find out if the problem in question is caused by the original or the
machine.
a. Is the density setting correct?
b. Is the background of the original of a certain color that prevents good contrast (e.g.,
shades of yellow; red sheet or slips)?
c. Is the density of the original too low?
If the original is a diazo copy or has a high degree of transparency, its copies can be mis-
taken for “foggy” copies. If it is prepared in pencil, further, its copies can be mistaken
for “light” copies.

3.1.3 Checking the Copyboard Glass for Dirt and Scratches


If the copyboard glass is soiled, clean it with alcohol; if it has scratches, replace it.

3.1.4 Isolating the Problem Between the Scanner Unit and the Printer Unit
If the problem is caused by the machine, determine whether it is in its scanner unit or its
printer unit:
a. Select ‘1’ and ‘3’ for TYPE in service mode (TEST>PG), and generate a test print. Does
the output show the same problem as the copies?

COPYRIGHT© 2000 CANON INC. 2000 2000 2000 CANON iR75W REV.0 OCT. 2000 11-31
CHAPTER 11 TROUBLESHOOTING

3.1.5 Checking the Charging Assemblies


a. Check each charging assembly for dirt and for a fault on its charging wire.
b. Clean the charging wire and shielding plate of each charging assembly. (If the dirt can-
not be removed, replace the part.)
c. Check the height of the charging wire of each charging assembly.
d. Check to make sure that each charging assembly is securely set (in relation to the high-
voltage connector and the like).
e. Check the charging wire spring for rusting.

3.1.6 Checking the Developing Assembly


a. Check to make sure that the push-out cams on both sides of the developing assembly are
positioned correctly and are locked in place properly.
b. Check to see that the coating of toner on the surface of the developing assembly is even
and covers the entire surface.

3.1.7 Checking the Paper


a. Is the paper of a type recommended by Canon?
b. Is the paper moist? Try paper fresh out of package to make copies.

3.1.8 Checking the Consumables and Durables


Check the consumables and durables against the Table of Periodically Replaced Parts,
Tables of Durables, and Scheduled Servicing Chart. Replace those part that have reached the
ends of their lives.

3.1.9 Others
In winter, bringing a machine from a cold to warm place can cause condensation inside
the machine, leading to various problems. If condensation is noted, dry wipe the parts or
leave the machine powered and alone for about an hour.

a. Condensation on the copyboard glass, CCD lens array, or LED exposure


unit lens array can cause the images to be fuzzy.
REF.
b. A cold photosensitive drum (i.e., OPC having a high electrical resis-
tance) can prevent good contact (turning out foggy or light images).
c. Condensation in the charging system can cause feeding faults.
