2.1Scanner Mechanism
2.1.1Document feeding and ejecting mechanism
This mechanis m consists of the document s tacker, automatic docum ent feeder (ADF), docum ent
ejection roller ASSY, and document sensors. (For details about the sensors, refer to Section 2.3.)
If the operator sets documents on the document stacker and starts the scanning operation, the
scanner motor rotates so that the ADF (which consists of the separation roller and ADF parts) feeds
those documents into the equipment, starting from the bottom sheet to the top, page by page.
Each document advances with the docum ent f eed roller ASSY to the scanner , and then it is fed out
of the equipment with the document ejection roller ASSY.
2.1.2Scanner
The scanner uses a contact image sens or (CIS) unit which consists of an LED array illuminating
documents, a self-focus lens array collecting the reflected light, a CIS PCB carrying out
photoelectric conversion to output picture elem ent data, and a cover glass on which a docum ent
advances. W hen the doc ument passes between the document pr ess ur e bar and the c over glass , it
is scanned.

2.2.1Paper pulling-in, registration, feeding, and ejecting mechanism

Page 24
Paper pulling-in and registration mechanism
The paper pulling-in and registration m echanism consis ts of the pull-in roller gear (incorporated in
the multi-purpose sheet f eeder), planetary gear system, paper f eed solenoid, s olenoid lever, c lutch
release lever, and registration sensor. (For the details about the sensor, refer to Section 2.3.)
If the main motor rotates clockwise, the rotation is transmitted to the intermediate gear of the
planetary gear system. As the intermediate gear rotates, the pull-in roller drive gear also rotates
since the clutch gear is locked by the solenoid lever and the clutch release lever. Ac cordingly, the
pull-in roller in the multi-purpos e sheet feeder rotates to pull in paper into the equipm ent, a s heet at
a time.
If the paper feed solenoid is retracted and the clutch release lever is operated according to the c am
profile of the pull-in roller gear s o as to releas e the clutch gear, the clutc h gear rotates and the pullin roller drive gear does not rotate. In this way, the clutch gear switches the transmission of the
motor rotation to the pull-in roller drive gear on and off.
The solenoid on/off timing and the clutch release lever timing allow this mechanism to pull in a
sheet and register it against the registration roller.
Paper feeding and ejecting mechanism
If the main motor rotates clock wise, the rotation is transmitted via the gear train to the drum drive
gear, heater roller drive gear, and paper ejection roller drive gear.
After the paper passes through the heat-fixing process, it will be ejected onto the paper tray.
If the leading edge of the paper pushes up the actuator of the paper ejection sensor, the
photosensor becomes opened, s ignaling the start of paper ejec tion. If the trailing edge has pass ed
through the sensor actuator, the sensor becomes closed, signaling the completion of paper
ejection. Then, the main motor stops rotation.

2.2.2Print process mechanism
The print process unit works with laser beam, electrical charges, and toner. The graph below
shows the transition of electrical c harge on the surface of the las er-sensitive drum thr ough the five
processes: charging, exposing, developing, transferring, and erasing processes.
III - 6
Page 26
2.2.3Heat-fixing mechanism
As the paper passes between the heater roller and the press ure roller in the heat-fixing unit, the
heater roller fuses the toner on the paper.

Document front sensorPhotosensorControl panel PCB ASSY
•Document front sensor which detects the presence of documents.
•Document rear sensor which detects the leading and tr ailing edges of pages to tell the control
circuitry when the leading edge of a new page has reached the starting position and when the
scan for that page is over.
•Top cover sensor which detects whether the top cover is closed.
•Registration sensor which detects the leading and trailing edges of paper, which allows the
controller to determine the registration timing and check paper jam.
•Paper ejection sensor which detects whether the recording paper goes out of the equipment.
•Toner sensor which detects whether there is toner or a toner cartridge is loaded.
•Toner thermister which detects the ambient temperature of the toner cartridge.

CHAPTER IV. DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY AND LUBRICATION
To prevent the creation of sec ondary problems by mishandling, observe the following precautions
during maintenance work.
(1) Unplug the power cord from the power outlet before replacing parts or units. When having
access to the power supply, be sure to unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
(2) W hen s ervic ing the optic al system of the las er printing unit, be c ar ef ul not to plac e s c rewdriver s
or other reflective objects in the path of the laser beam. Be sure to take off any personal
accessories such as wrist watches and rings before work ing on the printer. A reflected beam,
though invisible, can permanently damage your eyes.
(3) If the equipment has been printing, allow the heat-fixing unit suff icient time to c ool down before
starting maintenance jobs. It is HOT!
(4) Be careful not to lose screws, washers, or other parts removed for parts replacement.
(5) Do not remove gears from the document feed roller ASSY or ejection roller ASSY if at all
possible. Once removed, they will become unusable and new gears will have to be put back in.
(6) When using solder ing irons and other heat-generating tools, take car e not to dam age the res in
parts such as wires, PCBs, and covers.
(7) Before handling the PCBs, touch a m etal por tion of the equipment to discharge static elec tric ity;
otherwise, the electronic parts may be damaged due to the electricity charged in your body.
(8) When transporting PCBs, be sure to wrap them in conductive sheets such as aluminum foil.
(9) Be sure to reinsert self-tapping screws correctly, if removed.
(10) Tighten screws to the torque values listed on the next page.
(11) When connecting or disconnecting cable connectors, hold the connector bodies not the cables.
If the connector has a lock, always slide the connector lock to unlock it.
(12) Before reassembly, apply the specified lubricant to the specified points. (Refer to Section 2 in
this chapter.)
(13) After repairs, check not only the repaired portion but also that the connectors and other related
portions function properly before operation checks.

Selectors 1 through 3: 1st dial tone detection
These selectors activate or deactivate the 1st dial tone detection function which detec ts the 1st dial
tone issued from the PSTN when a line is connected to the PSTN.
Setting all of these selectors to "1" activates the dial tone detection function so that the equipment
starts dialing upon detection of a dial tone when a line is connected. ( However, in those countries
which support no dial tone detection function, e.g., in the U.S.A., setting these selectors to "1"
makes the equipment start dialing after a WAIT of 3.5 sec onds .) F or the detecting c onditions of the
1st dial tone, refer to WSW07 and WSW08.
Other setting combinations deac tivate the dial tone detection function so that the equipment starts
dialing after the specified WAIT (3.5, 7.0, 10.5, 14.0, 17.5, 21.0, or 24.5 s econds) without detection
of a dial tone when a line is connected to the PSTN.
Selector 4:Max. pause time allowable for remote ID code detection
This selector sets the maxim um pause time allowable for detec ting the second digit of a rem ote ID
code after detection of the first digit in remote reception.
If selector 4 is set to "0" (2 s econds), for instance, only a remote ID code whose s econd digit is
detected within 2 seconds after detection of the first digit will become ef fective s o as to activate the
remote function.

Selectors 5 and 6:Busy tone detection in automatic sending mode
These selectors determine whether or not the equipment automatically disconnects a line upon
detection of a busy tone in automatic sending mode.
Setting selector 6 to "0" ignores a busy tone so that the equipment does not disconnect the line.
Setting selectors 5 and 6 to "0" and "1," respectively, makes the equipm ent detect a busy tone only
after dialing and disconnect the line.
Setting both of selectors 5 and 6 to "1" mak es the equipment detect a busy tone before and after
dialing and then disconnect the line. Note that no busy tone before dialing will be detec ted in those
countries not supporting the dial tone detection (e.g., U.S.A.).
Selector 7:Busy tone detection in automatic receiving mode
This selector determines whether or not the equipment automatically disconnects a line upon
detection of a busy tone in automatic receiving mode.
