Chapter 1. First Things to Know About DPCS3000

Highlights of DPCS3000
DPCS3000 is a copying system used exclusively for making copies from a n encyclopedia, dictionary, or any other thick book. PS3000 reads the page or pages of an open bound original placed on its Original Table and Di30 prints the data on them. In ad dition to being capable of making a clear copy of texts, the system offers the Photo mode which produces a sharp copy out of a photo. Di30, which is used a s a printer for the system, can also be independently used as a digital PPC. It can be fitted with various options according to your particular needs. For more details, refer to Copier Overview on page 8 of Di30 Operators Manua l.

Chapter 2. Installing It Properly

Installing the system installation Site
To ensure utmost safety and prevent possible m alfunctions of the system, install it in a location which meets the following requirements.
- A place away from a curtain or other things that catch fire and burn easily.
- An area where there is no possibility that it might be splashed with water or other liquid.
- An area free from direct sunlight.
- A place out of the direct air stream of an air conditioner, heater, or ventilator.
- A well ventilated place.
- A dry place.
- A dust-free location.
- An area not subject to undue vibration.
- A stable and level surface.
Power Source
The power source voltage requirements are as fo llows.
-Use a power source with little voltage fluctuations.
Voltage Fluctuation: Within 10% of AC120V
Within 10% of AC220 - 240V
Frequency Fluctuation : 50 Hz Within ±2.5%
60 Hz Within ±3%
- If any other electrical equipment is sourced from the same po­wer outlet, make sure that the capacity of the outlet is not excee­ded.
- The outlet should be located near the system and easily accessi­ble.
- Never connect by means of a multiple socket any other applian­ces or machines to the outlet being used for the system.
- If an extension cord is needed, use one with a capacity more than the power consumption of the system.
- Make sure that no unusual, excessive force is being applied to the power cord or extension cord.
Grounding
To prevent receiving electrical shocks in the case of electrical leakage, always ground the system. Connect the groun d wire to:
- The ground terminal of the outlet.
- A ground contact which complies with the local electrical stand­ards.
Never connect the ground wire to a gas pipe, the ground wire for a telephone , or a water pi pe.

PS3000 is connected to Di30 via a cable which is 2.5 meters long or more; however, keep a distance of less than 2 meters between the two machines to prevent load from being applied to the cable and connectors.
For the space requirements for a Di30 and its options, see Space Require­ments on p. 3 of the Di30 Operators Man ual.

Operating Environment

The operating environmenta l requ irements of the system are as follows.
Temperature: 10°C to 35°C with a fluctuation of 10°C per hour Humidity: 15% to 85% with a fluctuation of 20% per hour

Precautions When Making Copies

To ensure the optimum performance of the system, follow the precautions listed below. At the same time, use the precautions for using Di30. (See Using the Copier Properly on p. 4 of the Di30 Operators Manual.)
- NEVER place a heavy object on the Original Table or subject it to shocks.
- NEVER move PS3000 or turn the Main Switch OFF while it is making copies.
- NEVER bring any magnetized object or use flammable sprays near the system or cable s.
- NEVER place a vase or vessel conta ining water on PS3000.
- NEVER drop paper clips, staples, or other small pieces of metal into PS3000. .NEVER attempt to remove any cover or panel that is secured.
- ALWAYS insert the power plug all the way into the power out­let.
- ALWAYS make sure that the outlet is visible, clear of PS3000 and Di30.
- ALWAYS ensure that PS3000 does not ride on the power cord or communications cable of other electrical equipment, and it does not get such a cord or cable wedged into its own mechan ism.
- NEVER leave a damaged or cracked PS3000 power cord or com­munications cable unattended. If you find any of these conditi­ons, immediately shut down the system, unplug the power cord, and call your Technical Representative for appropriate action.
- ALWAYS provide good ventilation when making a large number of continuous copies using the system.
- NEVER leave PS3000 running when it becomes inordinately hot or produces abnormal noise. If that happens, immediately shut down the system, unplug it, and call your Technical Repre­sentative.

Precautions When Turning Power ON

When the DPCS3000 system is tu rned ON, PS3000 is activated as a sca nner. The Users Choice function of Di30 , however, allows for making a different setting whereby PS3000 may be ac tivated as otherwise. (For details, see 7. Users Choice on pp. 123-126 of Di30 Operators Manual.)
While Di30 is functioning as a digital PPC, PS3000 remains in the standby state with the message "" being shown on its Display Panel. If Di30 is in operation, such as while it is in a copy cycle when the application of Di30 is changed to a printer through key operations on PS3000, th e message "" appe­ars on the Display Panel of PS3000.
While Di30 is fun ction ing as a digital P PC, the Start Keys on P S3000 are l it up orange. They turn to green as soon as the application of Di30 is switched to the printer. At this time, the Display Panel shows the message "", etc.

Lamp Lighting

Lighting wi th Half Intensity
PS3000 lights its lamp with half intensity when it is turned ON or w hile any of its keys is being operat ed. The lamp is lit with half inte nsity when PS3000 is initialized or the menu is switched. It goes out one min. after the key has been operated. While the lamp remains lit, it is c ooled by a fan which is stopped one min. after the lamp has gone out.
Lighting with Full Intensity
The lamp is lit up with full intensity while the Scanner Unit is reading an original. It remains lit as long as the Scanner Unit reads the data. The period of time it remains lit varies with different original sizes. As soon as the Scanner Unit completes reading, the intensity of the lamp light is switched to half.
NOTE
NEVER gaze at the lamp whe n it i s lit wit h ful l in tens ity, as damaged eyes resu l t.

Off in Sleep

When Sleep is selected of Set available from the auxiliary function (Function) menu, communications with Di30 are shu t down temporari ly and Di30 can be used as a digital PPC. At this time, PS3000 gives the message "" on the Display Panel and turns OFF the lamp.
