Lens Carrier

Attention! Do not unscrew screws on the lens carrier or on the Zoom lens without

specific reason!
Only the screws indicated in the manual may be unscrewed without
causing damage!

Changing the Zoom

- Push back the lens carrier (= single lens position)

- Unscrew screws A (3 screws)

Attention! The Zoom comes down

- Take out the Zoom

- Installation in reverse order

Attention! Do not open the Zoom! Replace it only as a complete unit.

Focusing

- Set the configuration to the maximum Zoom enlargement (10.58) and select this
configuration

- Go to menu "Edit\Printer\Parameter\Justify\Zoom Offset\Base Offset\Basic Zoom
Offset"

- Expose a focusing test series (seven Prints):
* Select test ±X; X gives the step width of an exposure test series.
* The MSC101 jumps into the Reprint mode:

Print a suitable frame for focus assessment (if a single frame is used, there must be
enough film on the left and right side so that it is fully pressed down by the film
pressure flap).
After leaving the Reprint mode, the MSC101 returns to the Basic Offset menu.

- Assess the prints and enter the Offset value of the best print as Basic Zoom Offset.

Example: Basic Zoom Offset: 30. Select test ±

following Zoom Offsets: 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45
Best print with an Offset of 20, i.e. 20 is entered for the Basic Zoom Offset.
Now print a test series with 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26 with test ±2 , select again the
best print result etc.

If none of the prints is sharp, the Basic Offset must be modified. Proceed as follows to
find the Basic Offset:

5 for the first test series. Print a series with the

- Keep on exposing test series with test ±5 until an increase in sharpness is visible in
one test series.
Make focusing test series with the following Basic Offsets:
15, 50, 85, -20, -55, -90

Adjustment of the light sensors

The adjustment can be performed while the film supply is dismounted. Only the light
sensors need to be connected. Check the light sensors in the test mode of the MSC 101.

The light sensors are relocated together.

Note: The indications "horizontal" and "vertical" refer to the mounting position of the film supply

Horizontal position of the flap:

- Put a 1mm spacing piece (e.g. twist drill) under the film guide plate
* Put it in in such a way that it is jammed between the film guide plate and the goose

pimple(s) of the flap when the latter is horizontal.

1 Film guide plate 3 Spacer 1mm
2 Flap

- Move the flap in horizontal position in the test mode

- If the light sensor for the horizontal position does not respond:
* Slacken both fastening screws
* Shift the light sensors until the light sensor for the horizontal position responds.

The light sensor for the vertical position must not send a signal

- Tighten the screws

- Move the flap in vertical position

- Move the flap several times in vertical and in horizontal position.
The light sensor for the horizontal position must respond each time, if not, the
adjustment must be repeated.

Attention! The actuator must not rub on the light sensors !

If necessary, slacken the fastening screws one by one, bend the jammed light sensor in a
better position, check its correct triggering, and tighten the screws again.

#101skiz

AGFA MSC 101 26.10.95 2.11

Vertical position of the flap:

- Let the flap drop in vertical position

- Check the light sensor for correct triggering
Only the light sensor for the vertical position may send a signal.
If the light sensor does not respond, slacken the fastening screw again and bend the
light sensor until it is triggered.

Attention! The actuator must not rub on the light sensors !

If necessary, slacken the fastening screw, bend the jammed light sensor in a better
position, check its correct triggering, and tighten the screws again.

Film Feeder

Dismounting the Film Feeder

Attention! Dismount and mount the Feeder only while the film supply is dismounted (see also

"Dismounting the film supply"), otherwise the Feeder or the film supply may get
damaged.

The Feeder is fastened to the negative carrier from above by means of two screws.

- Unscrew the fastening screws

- Lift off the Feeder

Once the Feeder has been removed, all units are accessible without problems; for this
reason, there is no need for detailed assembly/disassembly instructions for the single
parts.

The Feeder adjustment is more difficult. It is described on the following pages.

Tension of the drive belt

The belt tension can be adjusted by relocating the motor (4 screws).

Rough adjustment of the film guide

Adjustment becomes necessary when the gears are relocated on the shafts (e.g. after
replacement of the toothed belt).

- Unscrew the cover plate

- Dismount gear B and
turn the stop ring to the right end of shaft B

- Undo the connection between skid A ↔ shaft A (grub screw)

- Hold shaft A and screw in gear A until the threadless end of the shaft stands out of the
associated bush about 2mm
The shoulder on gear A should not slip out of its hole!

- Push skid A to the middle up to the stop

#101skiz

- Fasten skid A on shaft A again

- Turn gear A about half a turn in ccw direction

- Undo the connection between skid B ↔ shaft B (grub screw)

- Push skit B to the outside up to the stop

- Shift shaft B so that the threadless end of the shaft stands out of the associated bush
about 2mm.

AGFA MSC 101 26.10.95 2.13

Color Printer Mechanical

- Fasten skid B on shaft B again
after having ascertained that

* there are still 2mm standing out and
* the skid is on the extreme outside.

- Push skid B against skid A and hold it tight

- Turn in the stop ring until skid B starts moving to the right

- Put on gear B

- Screw on the cover plate

- Move the Feeder in position 120 and in zero position in the test mode:
The threadless end of a shaft must not penetrate into the associated bush in neither of
the two positions (projection 0.5mm ... 1.8mm). Repeat the rough adjustment, if
necessary.

Mounting the Film Feeder

Attention! Be sure to dismount the film supply before installing the Feeder

If the film supply is not dismounted, the Feeder or the film supply may get damaged

- Dismount the film supply (see "Dismounting the film supply"); the cables need not be
disconnected

- Lift the top film transport roller

- Put the Feeder on the negative carrier diagonally from above,
inserting the film exit flap between the top and bottom film transport roller

- Screw the Feeder back on

2.14 26.10.95 AGFA MSC 101

Mechanical Color Printer

Adjustment of the film guide

Adjustment is with the Feeder in place (see "Mounting the Feeder")

- Open the Feeder skids by hand (turn the toothed belt gear) until the gauge 135 just fits

Attention! Never move the skids towards the gauge because in this case they would not be

symmetric with the optical axis!

- Push in the gauge until it reaches into the film guide of the negative mask 135F
If it is impossible to push in the gauge, or too much backlash (max. 0.3mm):

* Unscrew the skids from the shaft (one grub screw each) and shift them as

appropriate

- Move the Feeder in position 120 and in zero position in the test mode:
The threadless end of a shaft must not penetrate into the associated bush in neither of
the two positions (projection 0.5mm ... 1.8mm). Repeat the rough adjustment, if
necessary (see "Rough adjustment of the film guide").

Adjustment of the channel width scanning

Adjustment is with the Feeder in place (see "Mounting the Feeder")

- Put in the zero position gauge

- Close the Feeder manually (turn the toothed belt gear) until the gauge is jammed (zero
position)

- Release the light sensor actuator and pull it out of the light sensor

- Push the actuator back into the light sensor until the latter is triggered (check in the test
mode of the MSC 101)

- Fasten the actuator again

#101skiz

AGFA MSC 101 26.10.95 2.15

Color Printer Mechanical

- Open the skids for film size 120 (via the test mode)

- Move the skids back to zero position (via the test mode)

- The gauge must fit again with a backlash of ±0.1mm, if necessary, correct or repeat
the adjustment

Note In zero position, the skids are not symmetric with the optical axis.
