Lithium Batteries (Memory Back-up)

ICAUTION
The danger of explosion exists if a battery of this type is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or an equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used batteries in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Important: Before servicing this machine, please read the following notes.
· · ·

·

· · ·

Do not touch the nozzle section in the ink cartridge. This helps prevent the nozzles from clogging. Do not touch the wiper blade on the purge unit. This also helps prevent the nozzles from clogging. (Please refer to section 2.2 for details.) Do not touch the aluminum plate on the ink cartridge. The aluminum plate heats up during printing. It becomes quite hot during continuous high duty printing. After repairs or maintenance, excessive ink may remain on the contact section of the cartridge, covers, and TIJ unit. Remove this ink with a dry cloth. The ink is electrically conductive and it may short an electrical component. Always store an extra cartridge (if unpacked) in the cartridge box included with the machine. Ensure that the TIJ unit has completed its cleaning operation before unplugging the machine. Ensure that the carriage is at the head capping position (home position) before leaving the machine unplugged for long periods.

Immediate Transmission: Scanned data from the contact image sensor passes to the DIP block in the FCIP. After analog/digital video processing, the DCR block compresses the data for transmission. The compressed data then passes either to the FIFO memory or to the ECM memory, before it is sent to the telephone line through the modem. Memory Transmission: First, the scanned data is stored in the SAF memory after compression in the DCR block. At the time for transmission, the DCR block decompresses the data from the SAF memory, then compresses it again after handshaking with the other terminal is done. The compressed data then passes either to the FIFO memory or to the ECM memory, before it is sent to the telephone line through the modem.

Data from the line passes to the modem through the NCU and hybrid IC. After the modem demodulates the data, the data (which is compressed) passes to the SAF memory. After the data has been stored in the SAF memory, it passes through either the FIFO or the ECM memory to the DCR block, where the data is decompressed to raster image data. The image data is then passed to the Print Controller for printing, through the RIDC. After the data has been stored in the DRAM (which acts as a print buffer), the data is sent to the printer head through the printer head control block.

The +5VBAT supply from the lithium battery [A] backs up the system RAM which contains system parameters and programmed telephone numbers, and the real time clock in the main cpu. The 5RTCCS signal tells the main cpu whether the back-up power (+5VBAT) is coming from the battery or from the +5V power supply. A rechargeable lithium battery [B] and the dc/dc converter on the FDU back up the DRAM (SAF memory) for one hour. While the main power is on, the +5V supply recharges the battery. The battery recharges in one or two days. The battery [B] generates about 3 volts (max. 3.2 volts). The dc/dc converter (IC12) lifts this voltage to 5 volts so it can be used as the +5VD supply for SAF backup. The CPU monitors the voltage of the +5VD supply with the 1VDET signal. When the battery has run down, and the voltage is lower than 4.4 volts, the CPU stops the dc/dc converter by dropping 1SAFFG to low and the machine stops backing up the memory. There is no battery switch for the battery [B].

The scanner consists of a shading plate [A] and a contact image sensor (CIS) assembly [B]. Inside the CIS are an exposure glass [C], a rod lens array [D], an image sensor [E], and an LED array [F]. The image sensor consists of a row of 1728 photosensitive elements. Light from the LED array is reflected from the document and focused onto the image sensor by the rod lens array. Because of the short optical path inside the CIS, the focal depth is much shorter than for a CCD type scanner. Because of this, the shading plate pushes the document so that the document surface always touches the exposure glass at the scan line. The image sensor assembly is not adjusted at the factory, so it does not need any adjustment at replacement in the field. The image sensor scans the original one line at a time, and outputs an analog signal for each line. The voltage from each element depends on the intensity of the light reflected from the original onto the element. The machine feeds the document through the scanner using one of the following step widths: the scanned lines are transmitted without any OR processing. 3.85 lines/mm in Standard resolution 7.7 lines/mm in Detail resolution 15.4 lines/mm in Fine resolution

The black ink cartridge is a single unit, but the color ink cartridge has separate ink refills (black and color) which can be replaced. Purge Unit [B]: To sustain a high quality printing level, the purge unit maintains the ink nozzles with a cap and wiper. The purge unit protects the nozzles with the cap when the printer is not in use. Carriage [C]: The carriage unit, driven by the carriage motor [D], moves horizontally across the print paper. The print signals are transmitted to the ink cartridge by the carriage ribbon cable.

Ink from the sponge is filtered at [A] to remove dust, and then passes to the nozzles through pipe [B]. When the head drive current flows through a nozzle's heater plate [C], the ink at the plate boils. The bubbles formed [D] eventually join into one large bubble [E]. The bubble forces a drop of ink [F] out of the nozzle. Head drive current stops before the bubble is fully formed. The remaining heat of the heat plate completes the bubble. The plate cools by the time the ink drop is ejected, and fresh ink enters the nozzle from the sponge. The nozzles are arranged in a straight line at intervals of 1/360 inch. There are 128 nozzles in the black ink cartridge. The color ink cartridge has a total of 136 nozzles: 24 yellow nozzles, 24 magenta nozzles, 24 cyan nozzles, and 64 black nozzles.

Cap Unit [C]: The cap unit caps the print head face plate (nozzles) when the nozzles move to the capping position (this is when the carriage is at home position). The cap unit is also connected to the ink pump. It extracts ink from the ink cartridge during cleaning operations. The waste ink is drained down into the waste ink absorbers in the bottom of the unit. Maintenance Jet Receiving Section [D]: This section receives ink ejected from the nozzles into the purge unit to prevent clogging. The gear feeds the waste ink to the waste ink absorbers in the bottom of the unit. Slide Pin [E]: The slide pin causes the cap unit [C] to cap the nozzles when the cartridge moves into the capping position. This unlocks the drive transfer mechanism inside the purge unit, allowing the paper feed motor drive to be transferred either to the purge unit drive gear [A] or to the paper feed unit (see section 2-2-5).

2. Purge Unit Functions Capping The capping function prevents drying of the nozzle and ink leakage. The cap is automatically over the nozzles when the carriage is at home position. Cleaning The cleaning function consists of two operations. 1. Wiping: The wiper unit wipes the face plate to remove paper fiber and ink. 2. Pumping: The ink pump in the purge unit sucks old ink from the capped cartridge and fills the nozzles with fresh ink. To initiate cleaning, the paper feed motor rotates in reverse. This causes the purge unit drive gear to rotate, which drives the cleaning mechanisms in the purge unit. The cleaning operations are executed when any one of the following conditions occur: · The power cord is connected. · The ink cartridge is replaced. · The number of print dots has reached a specified value. · The front or the top cover has been opened and then closed. · The paper feed lever has been released and then closed. · Cleaning operation has been executed by the customer. · The power is switched on or print data is received after more than 72 hours have passed since the last cleaning. · Every 60 seconds during printing. · At the start of each new page. · When the cap unit is opened or closed. Ink removed from the cartridge goes to the ink absorbers below the TIJ unit. The machine estimates the amount of ink that has gone to the absorbers, and stores the value in EEPROM. When the value reaches a certain threshold, "UNABLE TO PRINT" is displayed. The ink absorbers must be replaced, and the EEPROM must be reset (see section 4-1-17 for how to reset the EEPROM data).

When the carriage is at the home position (this is also the capping position), the drive transfer mechanism in the purge unit is unlocked (see section 2-24), and drive from the paper feed motor is transferred either to the paper feed or to the purge unit, depending on the direction that the paper feed motor is rotating. For paper feed, the paper feed motor [E] turns the registration roller [F] in the paper feed direction. This causes the drive transfer mechanism in the purge unit to move the drive transfer gear [H] into contact with the paper feed mechanism, and the paper feed gears and paper feed roller [G] rotate as shown in the diagram. For cleaning (see section 2-2-4), the paper feed motor reverses. The registration roller turns in the reverse direction, and this moves the drive transfer gear [H] into contact with the purge drive gear in the purge unit (not shown here). The paper feed motor then drives the cleaning operation. When the carriage is not at the home position, the drive transfer mechanism is locked. As a result, the paper feed roller does not move when the carriage is away from home position during printing. The paper is fed by the registration roller only.

2.2.6. Ink End Detection To determine whether ink is present in the cartridge, the machine prints a black dot (known as the ink end mark) after printing the last line on a page. The ink end sensor reads the white level around the mark, and then it looks for the ink end mark itself. If the sensor can detect the mark, the machine determines that ink is present. If it cannot detect the mark, the machine determines that the cartridge is empty. "Replace Cartridge" is indicated on the LCD and the machine stops printing. The machine keeps the received fax message data stored in the SAF memory until the ink cartridge is replaced. The machine checks for ink end at the following times. · When printing an incoming fax message · When printing a test pattern from 0 to 4 with service function 11 · When printing a report (except when printing EEPROM information with service function 11) · When the ink end sensor is initialized with service function 11 Ink end detection can be disabled with a user parameter 12 setting.

Ink End Sensor The ink end sensor is a photosensor that uses red light. The machine adjusts the amount of current to the photosensor automatically to correct for the manufacturer's sensor type. The current is determined by the output level the sensor reads during the white level scan on the paper when detecting the ink end mark. The machine also determines the threshold value for detecting ink end based the determined current value. 2.2.7. Maximum Print Lengths The maximum print length depends on the vertical reduction ratio setting of user function 62. It also differs for printing incoming fax messages and reports, and when in in copy mode. This is to ensure that there is enough space to print the ink end mark on incoming messages and reports. (Ink end detection is not done in copy mode or when printing from a PC.) The following table shows the maximum print lengths in various modes. All lengths are in millimeters. Copy Mode

Data will only be reduced if the length of the incoming page does not exceed a certain maximum length. This length depends on the reduction ratio set with user function 62 (the other choice visible on the display besides AUTO; this is either 94% or 100%), the print paper size, and the reduction ratio set with printer bit switches 04 and 05. Each paper size can be programmed with a separate reduction ratio. In each of the two bit switches, there is one bit for each possible paper size.
