This Service Manual contains basic information needed to service the FINISHER - L1 in
the field, conducted for the purpose of maintaining its product quality and a specific level of
performance.
This Service Manual consists of the following chapters:
Chapter 1 General Description, shows the features and specifications of the machine,
as well as the names of parts and how to operate it.
Chapter 2 Operations and Timing, explains the mechanical and electrical systems of
the machine by function in relation to the principles of operation and timing
at which they are driven.
Chapter 3 Mechanical Systems, shows how to disassemble/assemble the machine
and make adjustments.
Chapter 4 Maintenance and Inspection, provides tables of periodically replaced
parts and consumables/durables and a scheduled servicing chart.
Chapter 5 Troubleshooting, contains troubleshooting tables and diagrams of electrical
parts, lists of VRs, LEDs, and check pins by PCB, and an outline of selfdiagnosis.
In addition, an appendix is added to offer a general timing chart, list of signals/abbreviations, general circuit diagrams, and PCB diagrams.
The machine comes with an Installation Procedure. Refer to the instructions in the booklet
when installing the machine.
The following rules apply throughout this document:
As a rule, the descriptions in this documentation are based on the following:
1. As needed, the work of each function and its relationship with electrical and mechanical parts are explained; where applicable, the timing at which associated parts are
driven are also outlined.
In a diagram, the symbol
indicates a path of mechanical drive; the symbol
accompanied by a notation indicates the flow of an electrical signal.
The expression “power-on” means turning on the power switch, closing the front
door, and closing the delivery door so that the parts of the machine are supplied with
power.
2. In a digital circuit, the state of a signal is indicated by ‘1’ if its voltage level is high and
by ‘0’ if low . The level of voltage, however, differs from circuit to circuit.
The machine uses a CPU; however, since the internal functions of a CPU is outside
the scope of a service person, detailed explanations are omitted from descriptions. In
this document, a circuit diagram may cover from sensors to inputs of a controller
PCB or from outputs of a controller PCB to loads, or it may be a functional diagram.
The descriptions of the machine are subject to change for product improvement, and major
changes will be communicated in the form of Service Information bulletins.
All service persons are expected to be fully familiar with the contents of this Service
Manual and Service Information bulletins to develop a good understanding of the machine,
equipping themselves with the ability and skill to identify faults and to maintain the machine
in good order.
The machine is designed to be installed within its host.
3.Sorting and Stapling by Stac k Offset
It forms stacks of sheets in the intermediate processing tray for alignment, stack offset,
and stapling.
4.Stack T r ay
The stack tray can accommodate as many as 300 sheets of small-size* paper, 200 sheets
of medium - size* paper, or 150 sheets of large-size* paper.
Also, it can hold as many as 30 stacks (15 sheets max.).

The finisher consists of 4 blocks: delivery block, intermediate processing tray block, stapler block, and stack tray block. The following is a conceptual diagram showing these blocks
are arranged:
The finisher’s sequence of operation is controlled by the finisher controller PCB. It is a
32-bit CPU, and is designed to communicate with its host.
The CPU on the finisher controller PCB contains a flash ROM used to store the operating
sequence program.
The finisher controller PCB uses the serial communication line to receive various commands from its host to drive the motors. It also uses serial communications to send information on the sensors and switches to its host.
6) Steps 2 through 5 are repeated for as many sheets as there are, and the sheets are stacked
in the intermediate processing tray.
7) The sheets are stapled (if stapling is selected).

8) The stack delivery belt operates, and the stack of sheets in the intermediate processing
tray is pushed by the stack delivery lever and moved to the stack tray.
The paper from the host machine is delivered to the intermediate processing tray. Thereafter, the paper is aligned/offset/stapled in the processing tray, and then the result is delivered
to the stack tray. The following shows the relationship among the major electrical parts of
the feed drive system:
