Introduction

The cause of most accidents is failure to adhere to basic safety rules and observe safety instructions. It is important to prevent potential causes of accidents from occurring. In order to do so, read this manual carefully, and be sure to understand all the safety instructions and correct inspection and servicing procedures that it provides before beginning repair or servicing work.
Repairing or servicing the machine with insufficient knowledge about it could lead to unforeseen accidents.
It is not possible to anticipate and describe in a manual such as this every possi­ble hazard that could arise in the course of repair and servicing. Therefore, besides observing the safety instructions marked in this manual and on the machine's labels, service personnel should be safety-conscious and take other safety precau­tions as necessary. When performing repair or service work not covered by this man­ual, you should obtain safety guidance from an appropriately knowledgeable person.

D Using the service manual

• This manual contains the following information: structure and function of major parts, disassembly and reassembly procedures, specifications, and procedures for adjustment, maintenance, inspection and corrective action. This information is current as of December
2002, and applies basically to the model DP-460/440/430/340/330/330L DUPRINTER. From time to time, parts are changed to improve quality, performance or safety. Note therefore that in some cases, certain parts or machine structure aspects described in the text or illustrations of this manual may not be precisely the same as the product being serviced.
• Safety instructions marked with a " " (WARNINGS and CAUTIONS) are very important for
safety and must be observed.

1. Cautions regarding the installation location

Installation environment
s Avoid installing the machine in places exposed to direct sunlight.
• Sunlight will cause the temperature in the machine's interior to rise, possibly leading to malfunction of the control system.
• Sunlight could cause misoperation of the sensors.
• The heat of direct sunlight could cause deformation of the machine's plastic parts.
* Also avoid installation near to a ground glass window; light and heat penetrate such windows
although they are opaque.
s Avoid installing the machine in places subject to high or low temperature or humidity.
• High or low temperature or humidity could cause the machine to operate abnormally.
Suitable temperature and humidity ranges are:
Ambient temperature: 10y430y Ambient humidity: 40%470% Optimum temperature and humidity: 20y, 65%
• If the machine is installed near to faucets, water heaters or humidifiers, or in cool (sunless)
parts of a building or in the vicinity of water sources, the paper could absorb moisture and curl, leading to misfeeds or poor image quality.
s Avoid installing the machine in places with open flames, or where reflected heat or other hot air
currents (from stoves, etc), or cold air currents from coolers, etc will strike it directly.
s Avoid installing the machine in poorly ventilated places. s Avoid installing the machine in dusty places.
s The machine should not be tilting when it is used.
• Install the machine so that it is level.
(The machine should be level to within 5mm in the front-rear direction, and 5mm in the lateral direction.)
sDo not install the machine on shaky, sloping or otherwise unstable surfaces.
• The machine could fall over on such surfaces, or fall off them, causing injury.

Safety instructions
Warning
• The machine's power supply voltage and power consumption depend on the model. Details of this are given in the tables below. The power supply voltage and power consumption for the machine are given in the table below. The machine's power supply voltage is indicated on the identification plate located on the machine's left side; the machine must be connected to a power supply of the voltage indicated.
a Otherwise, fire or electric shock could result.
If the power supply voltage is unstable or if the power supply has insufficient capacity, the machine may not operate normally. Make sure that the power supply has sufficient capacity for the system as a whole, including optional equipment.

Use power supply meeting these requirements
* 120V AC model
* 230V AC model
* "With no load" - when the machine is on standby. * "At full load" - when the machine is running at maximum power consumption.
• Use only the power cord that is provided among the accessories. Insert the power cord plug firmly into the socket, so that proper electrical contact is effected.
• Install the machine close to its power supply. The outlet used should be exclusively for the machine, and have no other equipment connected to it. If an extension cord is necessary, it should have a ground terminal, and be of the following ratings: * For a 120V AC model: 130V, at least 15A, length not exceeding 5m. * For a 230V AC model: 250V, at least 8A, length not exceeding 5m.
• Never tread on the power cord or pinch it between other objects, or accidents could result.

2. Cautions for installation work

• Install the machine in accordance with the installation procedure appended to this manual.
• Lock the casters after the machine is installed.
a Otherwise, the machine could move or fall over, causing injury.
• To move the machine, push it by its mounting base.
a Pushing the printing (upper) part of the machine could make it fall over.
CAUTION
Using the optional printer stand

Safety instructions
' Precautions for safe servicing
• Always remove the power cord plug from the outlet before starting work.
a Otherwise, you could get a shock or your hands/fingers could be injured.
• However, the plug must be left connected to the outlet when performing function checks (of individual motors, a given series of operations, or electrical circuits). When motors are operated alone in function checks, interlocks are deactivated, so be aware of the conditions and positions of related equipment, and take great care not to put your hands or fingers into
moving parts.
• The cutter unit contains hazardous sharp blades. Exercise great care when inspecting the cutter unit or replacing it or its parts.
a Otherwise, your hands/fingers could be injured.
• Do not touch the drum or rollers after turning on the jog switch.
• Do not put your hands or fingers inside the machine while the drum is rotating.
a Otherwise, your hands/fingers could get caught and crushed between the drum and rollers.
' Working clothes
• Wear clothing than enables you to work safely.
Warning
' Tools
• Use tools that are appropriate for the work.
CAUTION

3. Cautions for maintenance, inspection and servicing

• The tape clusters have hazardous blades. Exercise care when inspecting or replacing the blades.
a Otherwise, your hands/fingers could be injured.
If optional tape clusters are used

A new, originally-developed superfine thermal head gives beautifully accurate reproductions of fine print and halftone photographs.
Its resolution is 600dpi in the primary scanning and 600dpi in the secondary scanning.
Its resolution is 400dpi in the primary scanning and 400dpi in the secondary scanning.
Its resolution is 300dpi in the primary scanning and 600dpi in the secondary scanning.

Adjusting the eject enables both thin and thick sheets of paper to be aligned neatly.
A long-life, high-brightness xenon arc lamp is used to illuminate the documents. Since the lamp's intensity is not affected by temperature variation*2, printing quality at low temperatures is greatly enhanced*3.
*2: The lamp is filled with xenon gas, which means
that it does not require heat to vaporize mercury, as a fluorescent lamp does, and therefore its intensity does not vary with temperature.
*3: Increased viscosity of the ink at low temperatures
results in fainter printing than at normal temperatures.
Operation is simplified by concealing occasionally-used keys under a panel, leaving just the basic function keys permanently accessible.
