2.2.1 C206 PSB/PSE and C257 PSB/PSE Power
Supply Board (for Stylus Color 440, 640, 740)
There are 2 types of power supply boards for Stylus Color 440/640/740.
The main components of the boards are the same, but the +5V
regulator ICs which create steady +5V are different. These boards are
power supply board with a RCC switching regulator, which generates
+42VDC for drive part and +5VDC for logic part to drive the printer. One
of the major characteristic of this board is that the same secondary
switch is used as Stylus Color series printer. By using this switch, the
following difference can be seen as superficial phenomena compared
with products applied with primary switch method, such as Stylus Color
IIs, II and Stylus 800/1000 series printer. The table below shows
application of voltages generated by C206 PSB/PSE board.
1. Even if the switch is turned off during the middle of printer operation,
since the driving power is turned off after the carriage goes back to
the carriage lock position, the possibility of clogging ink nozzle will
be decreased.
2. If the switch is turned off when the papers in the printer are still
being carried except for the papers in the hopper, the same
operation mentioned above is performed and the driving power is
turned off after the paper is completely ejected.
Table 2-8. Application of DC Voltage
Figure 2-16 shows block diagram of C206 PSB/PSE board. The
process from the input of AC voltage to the output of 42 V DC and 5 V is
explained in the following pages.
