Description A waste toner full condition is detected when about 8,000 printed pages have been produced after a waste toner near full condition has been detected. The number of copies made is counted. (The counter counts up 2 for paper whose FD exceeds 216 mm.) When printing prohibited is encountered, the machine prohibits the initiation of any new print cycle. The number of copies made is counted. (The counter counts up 2 for paper whose FD exceeds 216 mm.) The number of copies made is counted. (The counter counts up 2 for paper whose FD exceeds 216 mm.) The number of copies made is counted. (The counter counts up 2 for paper whose FD exceeds 216 mm.) The number of copies made is counted. (The counter counts up 2 for paper whose FD exceeds 216 mm.) The number of copies made is compared with the value of the number of hours through which the belt has turned translated to a corresponding value of the number of copies made and the value, whichever reaches the life specifications value, is detected. When printing prohibited is encountered, the machine prohibits the initiation of any new print cycle. The number of hours through which the PC Drum has turned is compared with the number of hours through which the Developing Roller has turned translated to a corresponding value of the number of hours through which the PC Drum has turned and the value, whichever reaches the life specifications value, is detected.

Supplementary information: Log check

TX/RX Test is the function that sends an e-mail to the mail address of the controller (Email Address set in Receive). The e-mail sent to the controller is received by the controller during mail check. The log shows the record of transmission and reception of this e-mail and, if the transmission/reception is normally terminated, the test can be regarded as being okay. The log is a record of ten different transmissions and/or receptions, no. 1 being the latest. 2.3.1 Example of successful test transmission/reception:

Photoelectric Conversion

The light reflected off the surface of the original is separated into different colors using the color filters (R, G, and B); CCD then converts it into a corresponding electric signal and outputs the signal to the IR Imaging Processing Section. The electric signal is converted to 8-bit digital image signals. After going through some corrections, video signals (C, M, Y, and Bk) are output to the Printer Image Processing Section. The video signals (C, M, Y, and Bk) go through some corrections. Following digital-to-analog conversion, these signals are used for the control of the intensity level of the LED. The image of the original projected onto the surface of the PC Drum is changed to a corresponding electrostatic latent image.

PC Drum Charging A negative DC charge layer is formed on the surface of the PC Drum. LED Exposure The surface of the PC Drum is irradiated with LED light and an electrostatic latent image is thereby formed. The toner, agitated and negatively charged in the Developer Mixing Chamber, is attracted onto the electrostatic latent image formed on the surface of the PC Drum. It is thereby changed to a visible, developed image. AC and DC negative bias voltages are applied to the Developing Roller, thereby preventing toner from sticking to the background image portion. A DC positive voltage is applied to the backside of the Transfer Belt, thereby allowing the visible, developed image on the surface of each of the PC Drums (Y, M, C, and Bk) to be transferred onto the Transfer Belt. A DC positive voltage is applied to the backside of the paper, thereby allowing the visible, developed image on the surface of the Transfer Belt to be transferred onto the paper.

Operation
Outline

Each of the PC Drums is irradiated with LED light and an electrostatic latent image is thereby formed. The LED print head is a fixed scanning type exposure system that includes approx. 7,700 LED chips (600 dpi) arranged in the main scanning direction and a SELFOC lens array, or SLA that brings rays of light emitted by the LED chips to a focus on the surface of the PC Drum to form a full-size image. The special service jig for cleaning the surface of the LED print head should be used, since a special coating is applied to the surface of the SLA to prevent ozone from sticking to it.

cm3520 Service Manual - Theory of Operation 3.2.2 Color Shift Correction System

Write Section (PH Section)

In a tandem engine, in which an independent image reproduction process is provided for each of the four different colors of toner. Incorrect color registration, or color shift, is therefore more likely to occur due to each of the LED assemblies being out of correct position. The color shift correction system automatically detects any misalignment among the different colors, correcting it both in the main scanning and sub scanning directions. The color shift detection sequence proceeds as follows. A detection pattern each in the sub scanning direction is produced at the front and rear on the Transfer Belt. Each of AIDC/Registration Sensor/1 and /2 at the front and rear reads the corresponding pattern. The amount of color shift in the sub scanning direction is then calculated and stored in memory. A detection pattern each in the main scanning direction is next produced at the front and rear on the Transfer Belt. Each of AIDC/Registration Sensor/1 and /2 at the front and rear reads the corresponding pattern. The amount of color shift in the main scanning direction is then calculated and stored in memory. Based on the data representing the amounts of color shift, the machine calculates how much each of the different colors should be corrected. The correction data is further stored in memory. Based on the data stored in memory, the machine controls each dot during production of image outputs, thereby correcting the color shift (varying the timing at which the LED is turned ON). The color shift correction is made when the Left Door is opened and closed, the IU is removed and reinstalled, or an image stabilization sequence is carried out from the control panel.

Operation
IU Life control

Each IU has EEPROM that detects a new IU and keeps track of the service life of the IU. A. New IU detection New IU is detected when 24 V is turned ON as the Power Switch is turned OFF and ON or the Front Door is opened and closed. If a new IU is not detected the machine does not execute image stabilization sequence. When a new IU is detected, an ATDC adjustment sequence is carried out. Operation when a new IU is detected

Operation
PC Drum Drive mechanism

Two independent PC Drum motors are used for the drive mechanism to suppress incorrect color registration and uneven pitch. The Color PC Drum Motor drives the PC Drums/Y, M, and C, while the Bk PC Motor drives the PC Drum/Bk. Gears having a large diameter are used to enhance rotating accuracy of the PC Drums. The use of gears having a large diameter provides a large number of gear teeth, which suppresses uneven pitch and eccentricity. Drive is transmitted to each of the PC Drums when the triangular coupling is engaged with the mating part that also has a triangular shape. II Composition/Operationn

cm3520 Service Manual - Theory of Operation 5.3.3 PC Drum small amount rotation control

Photo Conductor Section

Humidity around the IU can produce a difference in sensitivity among different PC Drums. This could lead to drum memory, allowing black bands to occur in the image. In addition, ozone stagnant in areas near the PC Drum Charge Corona reduces sensitivity of the PC Drums, causing white bands to occur in the image. To prevent these image problems, it should be ensured that the same face of the PC Drum is left exposed to the same condition for an extended period of time. The PC Drum is therefore turned at regular intervals to keep the surface sensitivity uniform. A. PC Drum small amount rotation timing The PC Drum is turned the small amount when a predetermined threshold value of the cumulative PC Drum driven distance is exceeded during a multi-print cycle or when intermittent print cycles are consecutively run with an intermission of less than a predetermined period of time between them.

Developer flow

1. Toner supplied from the front end of the Developing Unit is fed to the lower screw. It is then fed to the rear of the unit, while being mixed with developer and electrically charged by the Supply/Agitating/Conveying Screws. 2. The ATDC Sensor installed on the underside of the Developing Unit detects toner-tocarrier ratio during this time. 3. The developer, fed to the rear of the Developing Unit, is conveyed further to the upper screw. 4. Because of the magnetic pole positioning of the Developing Roller, the developer is conveyed onto the upper part of the Developing Roller. The Doctor Blade then controls the height of the developer brush to ensure that the developer on the Developing Roller levels out. 5. The Toner sticks to the electrostatic latent image on the surface of the PC Drum. The developer that is left on the Sleeve is returned to the upper screw by the magnetic pole positioning of the Developing Roller. It is then conveyed to the front side of the Developing Unit.

The developing bias voltage (Vb) is applied to the Developing Roller so that an adequate amount of toner is attracted onto the surface of the PC Drum. In addition to the negative DC component, AC voltage is applied during development to help toner to be attracted more easily to the surface of the PC Drum. This AC component is applied only while development is taking place. The developing bias (Vb) is supplied from High Voltage Unit/2.

HMT (High grade Micro Toning) development

The machine employs the two-component non-contact development system. With the HMT method, the magnetic developer brush does not rub against the surface of the PC Drum (the images). Accordingly, sharper line images can be reproduced, involving no uneven image density at the trailing edge or thin lines and achieving even finer reproduction of the solid image areas.

7.3.6 II Composition/Operationn

ATDC Sensor control

The ATDC Sensor is mounted on the underside of each of the Developing Sections. The sensor for C, M, and Y is an optical type, while that for Bk is a magnetic type. Each of these sensors detects toner-to-carrier ratio (T/C) of the developer. The reading is used for determining the amount of toner supplied. Only when a new Imaging Unit is installed in the machine, an automatic adjustment is made of each of these ATDC Sensors. The sensors cannot be adjusted manually. The target T/C is 8 % both for color and Bk. This T/C can, however, be changed using ATDC Level of Image Adjust available from the Tech. Rep. mode. A. Optical ATDC sensor A bias is applied to the ATDC Sensor window to prevent toner from sticking to it. There is a magnetic brush provided for the Conveying Screw portion to clean the surface of the window. The sensor portion is separated from the Developing Section (Imaging Unit). When the ATDC Sensor is replaced, it is necessary to replace the Imaging Unit with a new one. This represents the fact that the ATDC Sensor is adjusted only when a new Imaging Unit is installed. In addition, if the LPH Unit is to be replaced, it is necessary to remove the ATDC Sensor from the old LPH Unit and mounted it in the new LPH Unit. B. Magnetic ATDC Sensor The magnetic permeability (powder density) of the carrier in the developer is measured to determine the T/C. A mylar is provided for the Conveying Screw portion to scrape toner off the surface of the ATDC Sensor. The ATDC Sensor is integrated with the Imaging Unit. When the ATDC Sensor is to be replaced with a new one, the entire Imaging Unit must be replaced.

4036ma2025c1

Replenishing operation 1. Drive of the Toner Supply Motor is transmitted through a gear train to the drive gears of the Toner Cartridges of two colors. A one-way clutch is used for each of these drive gears, meaning that the drive gear turns in one direction only. Either one of these two drive gears is turned according to whether the Toner Supply Motor turns forward or backward. 2. As the drive gear turns, the Metering Roller turns to replenish the supply of a predetermined amount of toner for the Imaging Unit. Rotation of the drive gear also turns the Agitating Blade of the Toner Cartridge to agitate toner in the Toner Cartridge. B. Toner replenishing control T/C is detected when the Developing Clutch/Bk (CL2) is energized for Bk or when the Color Developing Motor (M6) is energized for C, M, and Y (during a copy cycle). The actual reading of T/C taken is compared with the T/C setting made in ATDC Level of Image Adjust available from the Tech. Rep. mode. Based on this comparison, the toner replenishing time is determined. Since toner replenishing is possible only while the developer is being agitated, the maximum toner replenishing time is fixed. If it is not possible to replenish the supply of the required amount of toner within this maximum replenishing time, the remainder time is stored in memory and added to the replenishing time for the next replenishing sequence.

Toner Supply Section

A toner near-empty/empty condition is detected by the Toner Near-Empty Sensor PQ and LED mounted on each of the Toner Cartridges. A toner empty condition is detected by the ATDC Sensor. Detection timing 1. The number of times is detected, in which the sensor remains activated for a given period of time or more while the Agitating Blade turns one complete turn. If this count reaches two, a toner near-empty condition is detected and the machine gives a corresponding warning display. 2. A toner empty condition is detected if the T/C reading taken by the ATDC Sensor is lower by 0.5% than the target value for a given continuous period of time after the toner near-empty condition has been detected. The machine is then brought to a stop. 3. The toner empty condition is reset if the Toner Near-Empty Sensor remains deactivated for a given period of time or more after the Toner Cartridge set lever has been unlocked and locked or the Power Switch has been turned OFF and ON.

1st Image Transfer Roller mechanism

The machine is provided with a mechanism that presses the 1st Image Transfer Rollers up against the inside of the Transfer Belt during the 1st image transfer stage. The 1st Image Transfer Pressure/Retraction Motor (M11) provides the drive for this operation. The 1st Image Transfer Retraction Position Sensor detects the 1st Image Transfer Roller at its retracted position. The pressure position is determined through pulse control. A. Pressure/retraction operation Pressure operation 1. Drive from the 1st Image Transfer Pressure/Retraction Motor is transmitted through a gear train to the drive gear. 2. Rotation of the drive gear turns the pressure cam, which allows the Sliding Plate to move. 3. As the Sliding Plate moves, the spring is released. This lowers the 1st Image Transfer Roller and the roller presses against the Transfer Belt. Retraction operation 1. When the drive gear turns backward, the pressure cam also turns backward, pushing to move the Sliding Plate. 2. As the Sliding Plate moves, the Pressure Lever is then pressed to raise the 1st Image Transfer Roller, allowing the roller to leave the Transfer Belt.

B. Pressure position changing mechanism To extend the service life of the PC Drum/Y, M, C, the pressure position of the 1st Image Transfer Roller is changed between the monochrome mode and the color mode. In the monochrome mode, the 1st Image Transfer Roller/Y, M, C is left in the retracted position and the PC Drum/Y, M, C is stopped. The pressure position is changed by varying the pulse count of the 1st Image Transfer Pressure/Retraction Motor, which results in the pressure cam stop position being varied. The pressure position of the Image Transfer Roller is also changed by changing the stop position of the Sliding Plate.

C. Retraction mechanism At the same time that the pressure position is changed, the Retraction Roller moves up and down to change the position of the image transfer on the surface of the Transfer Belt to suit the specific mode, either monochrome or color. Like the pressure position changing mechanism, the position at which the pressure cam is stopped is changed to move the Retraction Lever, which results in the Retraction Roller being moved up and down.

cm3520 Service Manual - Theory of Operation 9.3.3 2nd Image Transfer Roller pressure mechanism

Transfer Corona Section

The machine is provided with a mechanism that presses the 2nd Image Transfer Roller up against, and retracts it from, the Transfer Belt to prevent the 2nd Image Transfer Roller from being dirtied due to patterns produced for purposes other than an actual copying operation (which may be a pattern produced during the image stabilization sequence or other function). A. Pressure/retraction operation 1. Drive from the 2nd Image Transfer Pressure/Retraction Motor is transmitted through a gear train to the drive gear. 2. The rotation of the drive gear turns the pressure cam a half turn, which pushes down the Pressure Lever. This causes the 2nd Image Transfer Roller to be pressed up against the Transfer Belt. 3. At this time, the 2nd Image Transfer Pressure/Retraction Sensor detects whether the 2nd Image Transfer Roller is located at the pressure position. 4. When the motor is energized a second time, the pressure cam turns another half turn. This releases the Pressure Lever, which moves the 2nd Image Transfer Roller to, and stops it at, the retracted position.

The AIDC Sensor can be contaminated with toner since it is located under the Transfer Belt. There is a shutter mechanism provided for the sensor to prevent it from being contaminated. The shutter opens and closes in synchronism with the pressure and retraction motion of the 2nd Image Transfer Roller. When the 2nd Image Transfer Roller is retracted from the Transfer Belt, the Pressure Pin pushes the Shutter Holder. This moves the Shutter at the AIDC Sensor to the front side. When the 2nd Image Transfer Roller is pressed against the Transfer Belt, on the other hand, the Shutter of the AIDC Sensor is moved by a spring force to the rear side and closed.

Transfer Corona Section

To optimize image transfer output, the machine is provided with ATVC control, or Auto Transfer Voltage Control. The control lets a constant current flow through each of the Image Transfer Rollers. Then, from the voltage detected, the resistances of the 1st Image Transfer Roller, 2nd Image Transfer Roller, and Transfer Belt are measured. The optimum image transfer output voltages applied to the 1st and 2nd Image Transfer Rollers during printing are thereby automatically adjusted. A. Overview of ATVC operation

B. 1st image transfer ATVC operation 1. The 1st image transfer constant current for each color of toner output from the DC power Supply/1 is fed back to the DC power Supply/1 via the 1st Image Transfer Roller, Transfer Belt, and PC Drum ground. This allows the resistance of the Transfer Belt to be measured. 2. The measured resistance is used as the basis for determining the optimum 1st image transfer voltage for each color of toner. C. 2nd image transfer ATVC operation 1. The 2nd image transfer constant current output from the DC power Supply/1 is fed back to the DC power Supply/1 via the 2nd Image Transfer Roller, Transfer Belt, and Transfer Belt Drive Roller, allowing the resistance of the Transfer Belt to be measured. 2. The measured resistance, together with the type of paper, temperature and humidity, and the color or monochrome mode, is used as the basis for determining the optimum 2nd image transfer voltage. D. 1st and 2nd image transfer ATVC operation timing The 1st and 2nd image transfer ATVC operations are carried out immediately before the execution of image stabilization control. The control operation is not, however, performed in Image Stabilizer Mode 3. 2-41

Transfer Corona Section 9.3.6 Transfer Belt cleaning

cm3520 Service Manual - Theory of Operation

To scrape residual toner off the surface of the Transfer Belt, the Transfer Belt is provided with a Cleaning Brush and a Charging Brush. The Cleaning Brush is a rotary brush. To enhance its ability to scrape residual toner off the surface of the Transfer Belt, the brush is turned in a direction opposite to that of the Transfer Belt. The Cleaning Brush Motor provides the drive for this system. The Charging Brush is located on the upstream side of the Cleaning Brush. A bias (+DC) is applied to the Toner Collecting Roller to let current flow through the Cleaning Brush, Transfer Belt, and Charging Brush. Through potential difference involved, toner left on the surface of the Transfer Belt is conveyed to the Toner Collecting Roller.

Transfer Corona Section 9.3.10 ACS control

cm3520 Service Manual - Theory of Operation

II Composition/Operationn

This machine adopts ACS (Auto Color Selection) control, which controls switching of the print mode according to the number of the continuous monochrome originals to achieve both a higher copying productivity and longer service life of the consumables. This control functions in the ACS mode only. In the ACS control, the number of the continuous monochrome originals is checked when the color originals are switched to the monochrome ones. If the number of the continuous monochrome originals is less than a predetermined value, monochrome printing is made in the color mode. If, however, the number of the continuous monochrome originals is the predetermined value or more, the print mode is switched to monochrome since the time wasted for PC Drum rotation is larger than the time loss required for switching to the monochrome mode. The ACS control does not function until the number of the continuous monochrome originals has been counted. Accordingly, ACS control is provided only within the range of the number of the originals scanned for the first set of copies. This will result in ACS control not necessarily functioning at the optimum performance. This function works most effectively in the following conditions: For the 2nd set of copies onward in electronic sorting Printing using job programs Multiple Enlargement mode (that involves ACS detection processing made at the end of the prescan)

Waste Toner Near-Full/Full detection control

A. Waste toner near-full detection control An optical sensor is used to detect waste toner. When the sensor is blocked for a given period of time, the machine determines that the Waste Toner Bottle is nearly full of waste toner. At this time, a corresponding warning (near-full warning) is given on the control panel. To prevent false detection, an Agitation Screw is mounted in the Waste Toner Bottle so that the waste toner is accumulated in the bottle evenly. B. Waste toner full detection control At the same time that the waste toner near-full condition has been detected, the counter exclusive for the waste toner inside of the machine starts counting. When the counter reaches about 8k, the machine determines that the Waste Toner Bottle is full and stops operation. Counting method of the counter exclusive for the waste toner is corrected to count the value appropriately according to the color or monochrome mode or paper length. After the Waste Toner Bottle has been replaced and the Waste Toner Full Sensor has been unblocked for a given period of time, the machine cancels the copying-disabled condition, while at the same time automatically clearing the counter exclusive for the waste toner.

B. During a copy cycle As paper is consumed, the Paper Take-up Roller gradually lowers to unblock the Tray2 Lift-up Sensor. The Tray2 Lift-up Motor is then energized again to lift the paper stack. When the Tray2 Lift-up Sensor is then blocked, the Tray2 Lift-up Motor is deenergized. The sequence of these operations is repeated to keep constant the pressure between the Paper Take-up Roller and paper stack (paper take-up pressure) regardless of the amount of paper still available for use.

B. Speed stabilization To prevent double transferred image or brush effect, the difference between the fusing speed and paper transport speed during image transfer is corrected. The fusing speed is made either faster or slower than the system speed. The two-step speed control is accomplished using the Fusing Paper Loop Control (solenoid) and planetary gears. When the Fusing Paper Loop Control (solenoid) is deenergized, the planetary gears rotate, which sets lower speed. When the solenoid is energized, the planetary gears stop and the higher speed is selected.

1. The fusing speed in the beginning is set to the higher speed, thereby forming a loop in the paper between the 2nd Image Transfer Roller and the Fusing Roller. 2. When the length of the loop becomes small to deactivate the Fusing Paper Loop Sensor, the fusing speed is switched to the lower level. 3. When the length of the loop becomes large to activate the Fusing Paper Loop Sensor, the fusing speed is again switched to the higher level. 4. The sequence of these operations is repeated so that the fusing speed is automatically changed in two steps according to the loop length. This effectively makes for the difference between the fusing speed and paper transport speed during image transfer.

Fusing Roller pressure/retraction mechanism

To ensure prolonged durability of the Fusing Belt, the Pressure Roller is retracted from the Fusing Belt during any time other than a print cycle. (The roller is, however, retracted during a print cycle using envelopes.) The Fusing Pressure Roller/Retraction Motor is turned forward or backward to press the Pressure Roller up against, and retract it from, the Fusing Belt. The Fusing Pressure/Retraction Sensor detects the pressed position of the Pressure Roller. The retracted position of the Pressure Roller is determined by counting a predetermined number of encoder pulses from the pressed position using the Fusing Retraction Position Sensor. In reality, the retracted position is where the Pressure Roller is lightly pressed against the Fusing Belt. II Composition/Operationn

Protection against abnormal conditions

The machine provides protection against abnormally high temperature of the Fusing Unit in the following three steps. 1. When the Heating Roller Thermistor/1 detects 230 C, or the Fusing Pressure Roller Thermistor detects 190C (before the temperature control) or 220C (during the temperature control), the machine displays the malfunction code representing an abnormally high temperature and inhibits the initiation of a new copy cycle. (This is an ordinary detection of a malfunction of an abnormally high temperature.) 2. A different protection is provided when the CPU overruns, becoming unable to detect the malfunction of an abnormally high temperature. If the Heating Roller Thermistor/1,2 detects 235 C, or the Fusing Pressure Roller Thermistor detects 167C (before the temperature control) or 220C (during the temperature control), the heater relay of the DC Power Supply is turned OFF through the Control Board and the power supply to each of the heater lamps is shut down. If the detected temperature thereafter decreases, the heater relay is turned ON again and supply of power to the heater lamps is resumed. The sequence of these operations is repeated until the CPU recovers from the overrun and becomes able to detect the malfunction of an abnormally high temperature. This control allows the power supply to each of the heater lamps to be shut down before the corresponding thermostat operates. It thereby suppresses damage to the Fusing Unit itself. 3. If detection of the abnormally high temperature through approaches 1 and 2 above is not possible due to a defective thermistor or other reason, the thermostat comes into play to shut down the power supply to each of the heater lamps. The Heating Roller Thermostat is rated at 210 C, while the Fusing Pressure Roller Thermostat is rated at 180 C. The ratings do not, however, represent the actual surface temperature of the corresponding rollers, since the thermostats are installed in a non-contact fashion with respect to each of the rollers (ordinary protection against high temperatures).

2-81

II Composition/Operationn

PPM (printed pages/min.) control is provided to ensure the condition of one power outlet for one system and, at the same time, good fusing performance during continuous paper feeding. Only the Heating Roller Heater Lamp is preferentially turned ON during a print cycle. In a continuous print cycle, therefore, the surface temperatures of the Heating Roller and Fusing Pressure Roller decrease, resulting in the fusing performance of the printed image being degraded. Fusing performance is therefore estimated based on the surface temperature of the Pressure Roller. The printed pages/min value is decreased according to the paper length and system speed, thereby achieving the intended level of fusing performance of the printed images (toner).

17.2 Operation
17.2.1 Background margin control The PC Drum Charge Corona grid voltage (Vg) is set for the pattern based on the information provided by the temperature sensor, the PC Drum rotation time, the system speed, and the target surface potential. The background margin becomes the required voltage, thereby correcting changes in charging efficiency as a result of a deteriorated PC Drum and environmental condition changes. 17.2.2 AIDC Sensor LED intensity control

Controls changes in characteristics due to change with time and contamination of the AIDC Sensor, part-to-part variations in the sensors, and change of environment. The intensity (current value) of the LED is adjusted on the surface of the Transfer Belt, on which no toner sticks (background level). 17.2.3 Max. density control II Composition/Operationn

The developing bias (Vb) is adjusted to control changes in the solid density resulting from variations in developing characteristics and LED intensity, variations in sensitivity of the PC Drum, and changes in the environment, durability, and the amount of charge in toner. Patterns are produced on the surface of the Transfer Belt and the AIDC Sensor detects the amount of toner sticking to them. The correction data appropriate for each color is selected based on the correction data with four different levels for each color. The developing bias and grid voltage values that result in the maximum density are calculated from the detected data and stored in memory. 17.2.4 correction control

The intensity of LED in all gradation levels is adjusted to correct changes in gradation characteristics to a linear one. The changes in gradation characteristics are caused by variations in the PC Drum sensitivity and developing characteristics and changes with time and in environment. Patterns are produced on the surface of the Transfer Belt and the AIDC Sensor detects the amount of toner sticking to them. The correction data is calculated using the density measurements of different gradation levels. The optimum LED intensity is set for each of the different gradation levels.

The following describes the image processing operations performed by the Scanner Section.

1. A reduction type CCD Sensor is used to read the light reflected off the original and convert the optical data to a corresponding electric signal. To make data processing faster, data transfer and output are done through two channels, one for even-numbered pixels and the other for odd-numbered pixels. 2. The odd and even analog signals output from the CCD Sensor chips are synthesized to form a single string of signal data which is in turn converted to 8-bit digital signals (256 gradation levels). 3. A correction is made of errors that occur due to variations in sensitivity of each CCD chip and the light distribution varying along the length of the Exposure Lamp. The shading correction is made by holding the peak value (i.e., the maximum value of readings taken of multiple lines), to prevent adverse effects on the image due to dust on the shading sheet. 4. Memory called FIFO is employed to compensate for a deviation in the scanning position of the original, which represents a gap between two adjacent CCD chips, thereby matching the output timing of R, G, and B data. Also, the color aberration of the Lens is compensated at this time. 5. FIFO memories are used to enlarge or reduce the image. The image is enlarged by increasing the number of data readings and reduced by decreasing the number of data readings.

6. The scanning is divided into multiple blocks. The ratio of color or monochrome is calculated for each of these blocks. The machine then determines whether the entire original is colored or monochrome. A histogram of lightness is also created for later AE processing. 7. R, G, and B data are then converted to value and color component data for adjustments of saturation, lightness, and hue. 8. The scanning area is divided into two in the FD direction. The lightness histogram generated through ACS processing is tallied for each four gradation levels. A lightness histogram is then created for AE processing. The AE level of the original is determined based on this histogram and AE processing is performed. The R, G, and B image data is transmitted to MFP Control Board on the Write Section through the interface cable.

Image Processing

cm3520 Service Manual - Theory of Operation

The following detail the image processing operations performed by MFP Control Board on the Write Section. 1. Each image area, whether it is a color edge area, black edge area, dot area, or a continuous gradation area, is discriminated to optimize edge emphasis and smoothing just right for the image. 2. The color component data are converted to the Y, C, M, and Bk density data. Also, the masking processing, which compensates for the deviation in the spectral reflection characteristics of the toner, and UCR/BP processing are performed on the image data. 3. Other types of processing performed are the improved reproduction of black text, edge emphasis, edge expansion, smoothing, color balance, and correction. 4. Compresses the C, M, Y, and Bk image data to reduce its volume. 5. Temporarily stores the GBTC-compressed image data. 6. Stores the compressed image data. 7. Spreads out the image data stored in the file memory to the frame memory and performs the following control functions: delaying outputs to make up for the distance between the PC Drums of Y, M, C, and Bk and adjusting the different speeds between the Scanner and the Write Section. 8. Stores the Y, M, C, and Bk image data. 9. Temporarily stores the image data output from the frame memory. 10. Corrects skew in the print position at 600 dpi to ensure correct alignment in the main scanning direction between each of the Y, M, C, and Bk LPH assemblies and the PC Drums. 11. Corrects any deviation in the print start position in the main scanning direction that occurs when each of the Y, M, C, and Bk LPH assemblies illuminates the surface of the corresponding PC Drum. 12. Expands the image data using the method opposite to that used in GBTC compression. 13. Corrects skew in the print position at 1,800 dpi to ensure correct alignment in the main scanning direction between each of the Y, M, C, and Bk LPH assemblies and the PC Drums. 14. Discriminates the edges of text and line figures and, according to the results of the area discrimination, performs the Fine Edge Enhanced Technology (FEET) operation. 15. In order to prevent the gradation balance from changing, interpolation converts the resolution only for the continuous gradation areas when resolution changes from 600 dpi to 1,800 dpi when using FEET. 16. Makes the necessary corrections so that the printed gradations have linear characteristics, since the image density of the input image data is not directly proportional to that of the printed image due to the changing developing and PC Drum characteristics. 17. Creates the density distribution of a predetermined pattern to enable outstanding gradation reproduction. 18. Rearranges the image data, which has undergone the processes up to screening, so that the LEDs can then be illuminated and transfer the corrected image data. 19. Adjusts the variations in each of the LEDs, approx. 7,700 chips, to ensure that each emits a uniform intensity of light.

The Paper Feed Motor drives the Pick-up Roller and Paper Take-up Roller to take up and feed a sheet of paper into the main unit. Then, the Transport Roller Motor transports the paper through the vertical transport section. The Pick-up Roller takes up sheets of paper and the Paper Take-up and Separation Rollers ensure that only one sheet of paper is separated and fed into the main unit. When the drawer is slid in, the lever is pushed to lower the Pick-up Roller. The Tray Upper Limit Sensor then detects the upper limit position when the paper lifting plate is raised. The Upper Paper Empty Sensor detects when paper in the drawer runs out.

Shift gate/shifter drive mechanism

If the Main Tray runs out of paper, while the Sub Tray is loaded with paper, the paper stack on the Sub Tray is moved to the Main Tray. At this time, the Shift Gate Motor is energized to retract the front and rear Shift Gates. Then, the Shift Motor is energized to move the Shifter so that the paper stack on the Sub Tray is moved onto the Main Tray. The Shifter continues moving and stops when the Shifter Return Position Sensor is activated. When the Drawer Release button is thereafter pressed, the Shifter starts moving and stops as soon as the Shifter Home Position Sensor is activated.

Paper lifting motion

When the drawer is slid into the main unit and the Set Sensor is activated, the Lift-up Motor starts rotating to raise the Paper Lifting Plate. The paper stack of the drawer pushes up the Pick-up Roller. When the upper limit position is detected through the action of the actuator, it stops raising the paper lifting plate. As paper is consumed during the print cycle and the Pick-up Roller is lowered, the Lift-up Motor is energized until the Lift-up Upper Limit Sensor is blocked again. A. When the drawer is slid in 1. The paper lifting plate goes up and the top surface of the paper stack pushes up the roller. 2. The lifting motion stops as soon as the sensor detects the upper limit position.

Paper size detection

When the Trailing Edge Stop of the drawer is moved, the circular plate located on the bottom of the drawer turns, allowing the four FD Paper Size Sensors on the FD Paper Size Detection Board. Moving the Edge Guide activates or deactivates the two CD Paper Size Sensors through the cutout in the lever. The combination of the four FD Paper Size Sensors and two CD Paper Size Sensors that are either activated or deactivated determines the size of the paper loaded in the drawer. The Tray Set Sensor detects that the drawer is slid into position as it is slid in. Length Detection

Paper level indicator mechanism

All drawers now use the universal paper size tray for greater functionality. There is a window in the front cover of the drawer that serves as the Paper Level Indicator showing the amount of paper that is still available for use. A red lever is attached to the paper lifting plate of the drawer and as the paper lifting plate raises, the red lever becomes visible in the window. The more the red lever is visible, the lesser the amount of paper will be available for use.

The Stapling operation is accomplished by a Cam rotated once with the Staple/Folding Motor. The Home position of this Cam is detected with the Staple Drive Home Position Sensor. If the Staple Drive Home Position Sensor is OFF, the Staple/Folding Motor rotates in the forward direction until the Sensor is blocked or the signal is ON, which designates that the position of the Cam is ready for the next stapling operation. The Staple Detecting Sensor detects if the Staple Cartridge is in the Unit and if the staples are in the Staple Cartridge. A Self-Priming Sensor detects if the staples are positioned at the end of the Staple Cartridge. This Finisher is equipped with the safety protection mechanism. The Staple/Folding Motor will not be turned ON without an ON condition (with Swing Guide closed) of the Front and Rear Staple Safety Switches.

Elevator tray mechanism

II Composition/Operation

The Elevator Tray is moved up or down by drive from the Shift Motor and the Exit Tray Sensor detects if the paper is stacked on the Elevator Tray. The Exit Tray Home Position Sensor detects if the Elevator Tray is at its home position. If the paper is stacked on the Elevator Tray, home position is at the top side of paper and if not, the home position is at the edge of the Elevator Tray. When the main power is turned ON, the Elevator Tray is returned to its home position by drive of the Shift Motor. After the paper has exited from the Finishing Tray and has been stacked onto the Elevator Tray, the Elevator Tray is moved down by the Shift Motor driven for a given number of clock pulses. The Clock pulse detection is generated with the Shift Motor Clock Sensor and the Elevator Tray is returned to its home position for the next stacking operation. The Upper limit position of the Elevator Tray is detected with the Shift Upper Limit Sensor. When the Shift Upper Limit Sensor is turned ON, (upward movement) drive from the Shift Motor is stopped. The Lower limit position of the Elevator Tray is detected with the Shift Lower Limit Sensor. When the Shift Lower Limit Sensor is turned ON, (downward movement) drive from the Shift Motor is stopped. The Stack Full Sensor detects if an excessive amount of stacking is made due to the height of the stacked paper of large sizes or of mixed sizes.

Paper folding is created by the Paper Folding Plate and the Paper Pressure Plate. At the same time when the Folding Rollers start to rotate, the Paper Pressure Plate starts pressing the stack of paper to the contact area of the Paper Folding Rollers. For half of the Folding Rollers, no rubber material is used except at the center and both ends of the Folding Rollers. This half of the Upper and the Lower Folding Rollers, contacts each other at the center and both ends, and is only used to transport the paper, thus preventing wrinkles. The other half of the Upper and the Lower Folding Rollers, contacts each other completely, thereby folding and then transporting the paper.

As the motor is energized, the Exit Roller turns to transport the paper into the Elevator Tray. Either the upper paper path or lower paper path is used to transport paper onto the Elevator Tray. The upper paper path is selected when the Upper/Lower Entrance Switching Solenoid is energized, while the 1st Tray Entrance Switching Solenoid is deenergized. The lower paper path is selected when the Upper/Lower Entrance Switching Solenoid is deenergized.

Paper switchback mechanism

When the last paper of the first print set is transported onto the Finisher Tray during a multi-print cycle in the Sort Staple mode, the first paper of the subsequent print set, which is to be next transported, undergoes a switchback sequence. The paper for the switchback is transported via the lower paper path. The second paper of the second print set is placed over the paper which has undergone the switchback sequence. After the first print set has been fed into the Elevator Tray, the first and second sheets of paper of the second print set are together transported onto the Finisher Tray. The switchback sequence of the paper is performed by turning the motor backward, which turns the Lower Path Transport Roller and Storage Roller backward. The sheet of paper to be transported next to the one subjected to the switchback sequence is transported via the upper paper path. No switchback sequence is carried out if the interval between sheets of paper is wide as when using paper of a large size.

<Three A4 originals for two print sets>

, , : Sheets of paper for the first print set , , : Sheets of paper for the second
print set

The sheets of paper for the first print are transported via the upper paper path onto the Finisher Tray.

The first and second sheets of paper of the second print set are transported together, one on top of the other.

The first sheet of paper of the second print set is transported via the lower paper path.

The Exit Rolls are pressed against the Exit Roller to feed the sheets of paper of the first print set out. At the same time, the first and second sheets of paper of the second print set are transported toward the exit.

The first sheet of paper of the second print set undergoes the switchback sequence and stops. The second sheet of paper stops as soon as its trailing edge leaves the Entrance Roller.

When the first print set is fed out, the Exit Roller starts turning backward to transport the first and second sheets of paper of the second print set to the Finisher Tray. The Exit Rolls leave the Exit Roller.

Mechanical operations

A. Storage roller/rolls spacing mechanism The Storage Roller briefly stops when the first sheet of paper completes a switchback sequence during a multi-print cycle in the Sort Staple mode. If, however, paper measures 217 mm or more in the FD direction, the leading edge of the second sheet of paper reaches the Storage Roller before the roller stops turning. The Storage Roller is therefore raised up to allow a given clearance from the Storage Rolls. The Storage Roller is spaced from the Storage Rolls as a cam is turned by the corresponding motor. B. Exit roller/rolls spacing mechanism Paper needs to be temporarily transported to the Finisher Tray in the Staple mode, which makes it necessary to raise the Exit Rolls to provide a given clearance from the Exit Roller. After the stapling sequence has been completed, the Exit Rolls are lowered and pressed against the Exit Roller so that the paper can be fed out. The Exit Rolls are spaced from the Exit Roller as a lever is moved to the right and left by the cam which is rotated by the motor.

Aligning plate The Aligning Plate is moved to align the paper in the crosswise direction with reference to the center position of the Finisher Tray. The Aligning Plate is moved as the CD Aligning Motor turns forward or backward. The CD Aligning Home Position Sensor detects the Aligning Plate at its home position. The movement of the Aligning Plate is determined with this home position used as the reference. The movement of the plate is varied depending on the width of the paper.

Mechanical operations

The Staple Empty Detecting Sensor is used to detect whether there is a staple sheet or not in the Staple Cartridge. When there are about 20 staples left in the Staple Cartridge, a staple sheet empty condition results and a staple-empty display is given on the control panel of the main unit. If a staple sheet empty condition is detected during a stapling sequence, that particular sequence is continued until it is completed. A staple empty display is then given. After a new Staple Cartridge has been loaded, the Stapling Motor is energized until the Self-Priming Sensor detects loaded staples (L), thereby feeding the staple sheet to the stapling position.
