Changes and Implementations
Support of IB-50 Step2 and IB-51
IB-50 Step2 and IB-51 planned in the future are now supported.
Change of the backlight control
when turning the user authentication
ON
The change was made so that the backlight will be turned OFF when
machine enters the sleep mode while it is always turned ON as long
as the user authentication is turned ON.
Support of the maintenance time
display of the paper feeding pulley
(of cassette and side paper feeder)
[Change of the maintenance mode]
(For more details, refer to page 4.)
The maintenance mode U250 and U251 were changed so that the
maintenance time of the paper feeding pulley per the paper feed unit
of the cassette and of the side paper feeder can be displayed.
U250 [Checking/clearing the maintenance cycle]
U251 [Checking/clearing the maintenance counter]
Auto switching of the default paper
source for the large capacity feeder
(PF-740/770)
[Change of the menu]
(For more details, refer to page 5.)
In order to equalize the frequency of the paper feeding pulley use on
the large capacity feeder (PF-740/770), the change was made so that
the paper source with smallest page counts will be selected as the
default paper source when turning the main power ON or recovering
from the sleep mode under the following conditions.
<Conditions>
- The machine has two or more large capacity feeders.
- The paper source has the same paper size and same media type
settings.
Change of the initial setting at the
maintenance mode U285 [Setting
service status page]
(For TA/UTAX only)
Although the initial setting of U285 is currently set to OFF for
TA/UTAX only, it was changed to ON. Additionally, the print coverage
is now indicated on the service status page.
Support of the languages for
KDKR/KDTW
Change of the maintenance mode
(U031/U052) according to disuse of
the REGIST LOOP sensor
U031: Checking switches and
sensors for paper conveying.
U052: Setting the fuser motor
control
(For more details, refer to page 6.)
The selection for the applied sensor setting at the maintenance mode
(U031/U052) was deleted due to disuse of the REGIST LOOP sensor.
U031 [Checking switches and sensors for paper conveying]
> Switch 3 Regist deflection sensor (RDS) --- Deleted
U052 [Setting the fuser motor control] > Chk Loop S ------------ Deleted
[Service bulletin for reference]
SB-2LC-0091-C195
“Notes on replacement of the parts. (Disuse of the actuator in
between the middle sensor and the regist. sensor)”
Change of the toner replacement log
on the event log report
The record timing of the toner replacement log was changed as
follows.
(Old) Except for the replacement within the page counts of 100
(New) Except for the replacement within the page counts of 500
Reduction of the eject/feed shift
solenoid motion time
(Reduction of the motion noise)
The noise might be loud at the timing of switching the eject/feedshift
solenoid ON and OFF at every sheet when continuously printing out
to the job separator or the mail box. Therefore, the change was made
so that the eject/feedshift solenoid will not be turned OFF (other than
for when ejecting the paper in duplex mode).
Correction of the title message dropout in multi-language when installing
the security kit
The title message in multi-language except English might be blank
when inputting the security password. Therefore, this was corrected.
