[5] GENERAL DESCRIPTIONS OF EACH SECTION The general descriptions of the following sections are given: 1 Paper feed section 2 Separation, transport section 3 Fuser, paper exit section 4 Developer section When the CPCF turns off, rotation is stopped, and the takeup roller is pushed up by the roller release arm spring to the position.
2. Separation, transport section 4. Developer section After passing the resist roller section, the paper is transported to the transfer section. After transfer, the paper is separated from the drum by the separation electrode and the drum separation pawl, then transported to the fuser section by the transport belt. 4-1. General descriptions (1) Two-component developer The developer is composed of toner and carrier.
5. Optical system 5-1. General descriptions • The optical system is composed of the fixed focus lens and six mirrors. Since the fixed focus lens is employed, No.4/No. 5 mirror base is moved as well as the lens to change the distance between the document and the drum (OID, Original Image Distance) for reduction and enlargement. To move the lens and No.4/No. 5 mirror unit, he stepping motor is driven by the signal from the main control PWB to allow zooming of 0.70 to 1.22 (inch series: 0.64 ∼ 1.
(7) Lens drive shaft 5-2. Basic operations This shaft is to control the optical axis of the lens in zoom copying. The lens follows on the slide base shaft. (Relationship among the original, the lens and the image in each magnification ratio) Normal copy: The distance between the surface of original on the table glass and the lens is made equal to the distance between the lens and the exposure surface of the photoconductor to make the original and the image equal to each other.
(Optical system dirt correction) The SF-2314/2414 perform dirt correction by changing the copy lamp intensity according to the dirt degree in the optical system (the copy lamp unit, No. 1 mirror, No.2 mirror, No.3 mirror) to prevent against remarkable degrading of copy quality. The reference value is the AE sensor output value which is obtained when the reference plate is exposed with the copy lamp voltage of 67.7V (135.4V) at power ON. This value is checked with sim 44-02.
6. Copy process (1) Photoconductor • This model uses OPC (organic photoconductor) as photoconduc- tive material.
(3) Actual process Step 1 (charging) The OPC drum is negatively charged by corona discharge of the transfer charger . Positive charges are generated in the aluminum layer.
Step 3 (Main Charging) By negative discharging of the main charger, uniform negative charges are applied to the OPC drum surface. The OPC drum surface potential is controlled by the screen grid voltage to maintain the grid voltage at a constant level. • When the drum surface potential is lower than the grid voltage, electric charges generated by discharging of the charger go through the screen grid to charge the drum surface potential until it becomes equal to the grid voltage.
Low intensity in the area corresponding to the darker density portion of the document Medium intensity in the area corresponding to the medium density portion of the document HIgh intensity in the area corresponding to the lighter density of the document CTL CGL Main corona unit Aluminum layer Blank lamp Discharge lamp OPC drum Developer unit Cleaning blade MG roller Surface potential (High) CTL Surface potential (Medium) CGL Surface potential (Low) Resist roller Seperation pawl Aluminum layer S
Step 6 (Transfer) The transfer paper is charged higher than the OPC drum surface potential by strong negative discharge of the transfer charger, making the binding force between the transfer paper and toner stronger than that between the drum and toner, attracting toner to the transfer paper.
Step 8 (Cleaning) Residual toner on the drum is removed by the cleaning blade. The removed toner is sent to the waste toner container by the waste toner transport screw.
(5) Process correction system 1) Outline of the correction system This model is provided with the correction system for the optical unit and the photoconductor drum unit. The combination of the two correction systems provides stable clear copy. These functions are to maintain the copy quality for a long time and to correct the characteristics of the parts, and are controlled by the software and invisible from the outside. 2) Correction operation 1.

(SPF copy mode: Horizontal copy magnification ratio adjustment) 1) Set the copied scale image paper which was made in the horizontal copy magnification ratio adjustment in the document table copy mode so that the scale image is horizontal in the SPF. Note that the copy magnification ratio of the copied scale image must be proper. 2) Set the copy magnification ratio to 100%.
VI. Adjustment procedure (8) Image loss/void area adjustment 1) Set a half-tone paper of A4 or 8 1/2" x 11" on the document table. The image loss/void area adjustment is performed by the combination of the copied image position adjustment on the copy paper and the void area adjustment. Since the image loss and the void area are closely related each other, they must be adjusted simultaneously.
IV. Cases when the adjustment is required Adjustment value C: Corresponds to the time interval from (SF-2514 only) the SPF resist roller ON to the copier resist roller ON. This value is used to change the paper feed timing for the image on the photoconductor drum and to change the copy image position on the copy paper. When the set value is changed by "1," the copy image position is changed by about 0.123 mm. When the set value is made greater, the copy image position for the copy paper moves backward.
5) Press the scale onto the document alignment plate and set it horizontally as shown below: L2 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 Scale Scale image lead edge Reduction copy (x 0.64) 6) Execute simulations 50-1 to make several copies at each of 129% and 64%. (For the models without zoom functions, make several copies at 100%.) 8) Enter the measure values in procedure 7) into the formula below to calculate adjustment value A and adjustment value B. (Not required for the SF-2314.) A = 8.
12) Check that the difference between the distance from the copy paper lead edge to the copy image lead edge of 129% copy and that of 64% copy is in the range of 0 ± 1.0 mm. (Not required for the models without zoom functions.) If the difference is out of the above range, change adjustment value A and repeat procedures 10) and 12) until the difference is within the above range. If adjustment value A is improper, the copy image lead edge position fluctuates in proportion to the copy magnification ratio.
IV. Cases when the adjustment is required 18) Set documents in the SPF, make 100% copies, and check that the copy image lead edge is in the range of 0 ± 1mm from the paper lead edge position reference. (Only the SPF models) If it is out of the above range, change adjustment value C and repeat procedure 18) until it is in the range of the above range. 1) When the optical section is disassembled or its part is replaced (including the scanner home position sensor).
13) Make a copy in the SPF mode and check that the void area is within the specified range. 5) Measure the lead edge void area of each copy. Void area Void area Copy scale image mm 1/2mm 10 20 Copy scale image 30 mm 1/2mm 10 20 30 Black background edge Black background edge Paper lead edge Paper lead edge 6) Calculate the average void area. Standard: 7) Calculate the void area adjustment value from the formula shown below. 1 ∼ 3 mm current void area (mm) Current set value (99) – 0.
5) Measure the end edge void area of each copy. (End edge void area adjustment) Paper feed tray mode 1) Press the paper feed unit select button to blink the manual paper feed lamp and to set the machine to the rear edge void adjustment mode in the manual paper feed mode. Void area 2) Perform the end edge void adjustment in the manual paper feed mode similarly with the end edge void adjustment in the cassette paper feed mode.

(4) Heater lamp control circuit 1 General The heater lamp control circuit detects the heat roller surface temperature with the thermistor, converts it into voltage level, and outputs it to the CPU analog input pin. The CPU converts the analog voltage into digital signal level, compares it with the value set by simulations, turns on/off the heater lamp according to the level, and maintain the heat roller surface temperature at a constant level. 24V Q110 DTA114YK 47K 10K R105 2.
(5) Driver circuit (Solenoid, magnetic clutch) (6) Stepping motor drive circuit 1 General 1 General The control signals of each load outputted from the CPU and I/O cannot drive the load directly. The output, therefore, is delivered to the load through the driver IC. The driver circuit drives the lens drive motor.
(8) Toner supply motor drive circuit 2 Operation IC104 is the motor control IC which drives the toner supply motor with the pulse signals (TMa, TMb) outputted from the I/O chip. After td (= 30msec) from when the voltage exceeds 4.25V after power rising, the output becomes HIGH. "td" is set by the external capacitor.
(10) Copy lamp control section The change in the copy lamp exposure level is adjusted by changing the ON period duty of the output pulse (CLPUM) from the CPU and controlling the copy lamp voltage. Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 show the circuit diagram and the waveform. 5V2 1 1-7C R160 FW 5 47kJ R161 10kJ 1 Ra6 10KJ V1 7 6 1 10 9 D103 1SS133 FWS 2-4C V3 T.P R167 R169 15kF 200kF R168 16kF C107 1µF 50V R166 15kF 4 C132 1000PF R163 2.2kJ V3' IC111C 8 Ra7 10KJ LM339 C131 0.
The relationship between the CLV and the pulse ON period is as shown in the figure below: CPU output (CLPWM) V1 8 or 10 msec 0V V2 Pulse ON (Changeing) 0V (V) CLV V3 60Hz 50Hz 0V +5V V4 Pluse ON period 0V • When the pulse ON period is shorter, the CLV becomes higher, and vice versa. • The pulse ON period rises at he AC zero cross timing and is driven by the duty.
4. Operating section (1) Outline The operating circuit is composed of the key matrix circuit and the display matrix circuit. Key detection: Keys are detected with signal matrix of W0 (Q25) ∼ W7 (Q32) and KEY0 ∼ KEY2. With W0 signal at LOW (GND) and W1 ∼ W7 at HIGH (open), the level of KEY0 ∼ KEY2 is checked and "H" or "L" state of 4K, 2K and 3K in the key matrix is judged to judge ON/OFF. For W1 ∼ W7, switching is made every 2 msec for judgement.
(2) Display circuit Control is performed with the data signal and the control signal from the control circuit.
(3) LED display The LED is lit up by the signal matrix of MDL0 (Q1) ∼ MDL1 (Q2) and F0 (Q3) ∼ F20 (Q23). By turning on/off ports F0 ∼ F20 with the timing of MDL0 and MDL1, the LED at the matrix cross point is lighted up. +5V1 RDL1 DTB113ZS PEL MDL0 Q1 MDL1 Q2 F1 Q4 LC7935 2m sec Cycle 4 msec 1/2 duty MDL0 GND MDL1 GND FO GND RDL1-ON PEL-ON 5.
