Introduction
REF.
Indicates an item of reference assisting the understanding of the topic in question.
Provides a description of a service mode.
Provides a description of the nature of an error indication.
Introduction
The following rules apply throughout this Service Manual:
1. Each chapter contains sections explaining the purpose of specific functions and the relationship between electrical and mechanical systems with reference to the timing of operation.
In the diagrams, represents the path of mechanical drive; where a signal name accompanies the
symbol, the arrow indicates the direction of the electric signal.
The expression "turn on the power" means flipping on the power switch, closing the front door, and closing
the delivery unit door, which results in supplying the machine with power.
2. In the digital circuits, '1'is used to indicate that the voltage level of a given signal is "High", while '0' is used
to indicate "Low".(The voltage value, however, differs from circuit to circuit.) In addition, the asterisk (*) as
in "DRMD*" indicates that the DRMD signal goes on when '0'.
In practically all cases, the internal mechanisms of a microprocessor cannot be checked in the field.
Therefore, the operations of the microprocessors used in the machines are not discussed: they are explained
in terms of from sensors to the input of the DC controller PCB and from the output of the DC controller PCB
to the loads.
The descriptions in this Service Manual are subject to change without notice for product improvement or other
purposes, and major changes will be communicated in the form of Service Information bulletins.
All service persons are expected to have a good understanding of the contents of this Service Manual and all
relevant Service Information bulletins and be able to identify and isolate faults in the machine."

1.2 Features
1.2.1 Features
-Rear loading of roll media, making for compact, lightweight device geometry.
-Borderless four-side printing support (roll media) removes laborious cutting work, easing the job of creating
posters to a significant degree.
-High resolutions of 2400 x 1200 dpi maximum, coupled with the exceptionally light-fast, water-proof and
ozone-proof five-color pigment inks of Y, M, C, BK and MBK, deliver high-quality photographic picture
quality.
-High-speed printing under bidirectional print control.
-Ink supply through tubing to a completely independent printhead and large-capacity ink tanks.
-Ready for roll media and cut media.
-Roll media pass in widths between 254 and 914.4 mm and in lengths up to 18 m.
-The cutter unit that mounts on the carriage allows paper to be cut automatically.
-Cut media are fed and ejected and ink tanks replaced all in an easy-to-access front panel operation.
-USB2.0 high-speed interface and 10Base-T/100Base-TX in standard support of a TCP/IP network, plus
optional support of IEEE1394.
1.2.2 Printhead
The printhead that mounts on the carriage is an integrated six-color disposable printhead.
It has 5,120 nozzles for MBK and 2,560 nozzles for each additional color arranged in a zigzag pattern.
If print quality remains unimproved even after a specified cleaning operation, replace the printhead.
Replacement about one year after the date of initial unpacking is also recommended.

1.2.3 Ink Tank
Ink tanks are disposable.
An ink tank should be replaced when an ink tank replacement prompt message appears or when six months
expire after the date of initial unpacking, whichever occurs earlier.
To install ink tanks, open the right cover of the printer. Ink tanks are furnished with a notch for preventing
incorrect installation, which will allow the tanks to be installed at the position marked in the right color and
nowhere else.
Ink tanks are available in the four dye ink colors of black, cyan, magenta and yellow and the pigment ink color
of mat black.

1.2.6 Stand
It is a stand that puts the printer. Equipped with casters so that the printer can be easily moved. The output
stacker included with stand can use by the two ways of the regular position or extended position.
F-1-6
MEMO:
- Use the output stacker in the regular position [A]. However, for the specified media, it can also be used in the
extended position [B]. The media can be removed more easily when the output stacker is in the extended
position.
- The output stacker can accommodate one sheet. Remove each sheet before printing if you are printing a series
of documents.
