2. OPERATION DESCRIPTION
The OKIPAGE 4w consists of a main control board, a high-voltage power supply board, a power
supply unit, and an electro-photographic processor. The OKIPAGE 4w receives print data from
a higher-level interface and sequentially stores it in memory. The OKIPAGE 4w decodes and
edits the received data while storing print data from the interface in memory. It sequentially
transfers the edited data to the LED head for each dot line. The electro-photographic processor
then prints the data on sheets of paper.
The display of the higher-level host is used for device operation and status display.

2.5 Electro-Photographic Process
(1) Electro-photographic process
The electro-photographic process is outlined below.
1 Charging
The surface of the OPC drum is charged negatively and uniformly by applying the DC
voltage to the CH roller.
2 Exposure
Light emitted from the LED head irradiates the negatively charged surface of the OPC
drum. The surface potential of the irradiated surface attenuates to form the electrostatic
latent image corresponding to the image signal.
3 Development and residual toner recovery
The negatively charged toner is brought into contact with the OPC drum, adhering to the
electrostatic latent image on the OPC drum by static electricity. This adhesion causes
the electrostatic latent image to change to a visible image.
At the same time, the residual toner on the OPC drum is attracted to the developing
rollerby static electricity.
4 Transfer
When paper is placed over the image drum surface, the positive charge which is
opposite in polarity to that of the toner, is applied to the reverse side by the transfer roller.
The toner is attracted by the positive charge and is transferred onto the paper. This
results in the transfer of the toner image formed on the image drum onto the paper.
5 Cleaning
The cleaning roller temporarily attracts the residual toner on the transferred OPC drum
with static electricity, then returns the toner to the OPC drum.
6 Fusing
The transferred unfused toner image is fused to a sheet of paper by applying heat and
pressure to the image.
Figure 2-5 is a flow for the electro-photographic process.

2 The toner applied to the developing roller is thin-coated by the developing blade.
3 A toner adheres to the exposure part of the OPC drum in the contact part between the
OPC drum and developing roller. This causes the electrostatic latent image to be
changed to a visible image.
2 - 15
Page 27
(6) Transfer
The transfer roller is composed of conductive sponge material. This roller is set so that the
surface of the OPC drum and sheets of paper will adhere closely.
A sheet of paper is placed on the surface of the OPC drum and the positive charge opposite
to the negative charge of a toner is applied from the reverse side by the transfer roller.
When a high negative voltage is applied from the power supply to the transfer roller, the
positive charge induced on the surface of the transfer roller moves to the paper side at the
contact part between the transfer roller and the sheet of paper. The positive charge on the
lower side of the sheet of paper then causes the negatively charged toner adhering to the
surface of the OPC drum to move to the upper side of the sheet. This enables transfer to the
sheet of paper.

Page 28
(7) Fusing
The transferred unfused toner image is fused to a sheet of paper because heat and pressure
are applied when it passes between the heat roller and back-up roller.
The Teflon-coated heat roller contains a 400 W heater (Halogen lamp) that heats the heat
roller. The thermistor on the surface of the heat roller keeps the temperature of the heat roller
constant. A thermostat is also installed for safety. If temperature rises abnormally, this
thermostat opens to suspend voltage supply to the heater.
The back-up roller is pressurized to the heat roller by the pressure spring on each side.

suspend +5 V supply to the high voltage power supply. This results in the stop of all high-voltage
outputs. At the same time, the CVOPN signal is issued to notify the main control board of the
switch status and cover open processing is executed.

3. PARTS REPLACEMENT
This chapter explains how to replace parts, assemblies, and units in the field.
The replacement procedures to be explained here include dismounting, not mounting. When
mounting parts, assemblies, and units, reverse the dismounting steps.
3.1 Precautions for Parts Replacement
(1) Be sure to dismount the AC cord and interface cable before replacing parts.
(a) Be sure to dismount the AC cord in the following procedures:
i) Turn off the POWER switch of the printer (“0“).
ii) Disconnect the AC inlet plug of the AC cord from the AC receptacle.
iii) Disconnect the AC cord and interface cable from the printer.
(b) Be sure to reconnect the printer in the following procedures:
i) Connect the AC cord and interface cable to the printer.
ii) Connect the AC inlet plug to the AC receptacle.
iii) Turn on the POWER switch of the printer (“|”).
Dismounting
OFF
ON
(2) Do not disassemble parts as long as the printer is operating normally.
(3) Minimize disassembling. (Only the parts indicated in the parts replacement procedures can
be dismounted.)
(4) Use only the specified maintenance tools.
(5) Disassemble parts in the specified sequence; otherwise, parts may be damaged.
(6) Temporarily tighten small parts such as screws and collars to the original locations because
they tend to be lost easily.
Reconnection
(7) When handling ICs such as CPUs, ROM, and RAM and PC boards, do not wear gloves that
easily cause static electricity.
(8) Do not place PC boards directly on devices and floors.

4. ADJUSTMENT
This chapter explains adjustment necessary when a part is replaced.
This adjustment is made by changing the parameters values set in EEPROM on the main control
board. The printer driver or maintenance utility can be used to change these values.
Only servicemen and maintenance personnel can use the maintenance utility. This utility cannot
be made public for printer end users.
4.1 Adjustment Types and Functions
4.1.1 Printer Driver
This printer driver has the following functions:
• Drum counter reset
• Printer menu default
• Charge roller cleaning
Figure 4-1
(1) Drum counter reset
This function resets the life of the drum counter when the EP unit is replaced. Clicking the
“Drum Count Reset” button resets the life.
(2) Printer menu default
This function returns the user-set menu contents to default settings. Clicking the “Default”
button automatically returns the user-set menu contents to default settings.
(3) Charge roller cleaning
This function cleans the charge roller of the EP unit; it is used when printing is unclear. For
details on how to operate this function, refer to “User’s Manual.”

4.2.3 Uploading and Downloading EEPROM Data
When the main control board is replaced, EEPROM data must be reflected on a new main control
board. Use “EEPROM Operations” in the option tab of the maintenance utility to reflect EEPROM
data on the new main control board. (See Figure 4-4.)
Reflect EEPROM data on the new main control board in the following procedures:
(1) Check that the printer and PC are connected by the parallel I/F, then execute the
maintenance utility.
(2) Click the "Option" button in "Main Menu Dialog".
(3) Click the “Upload” button (Upload EEPROM Data) in “EEPROM Operations.” (EEPROM
data read is completed.)
(4) The read EEPROM data is displayed in “Dialog” of the maintenance driver.
(5) Leave the display of the maintenance driver as is and replace the main control board.
(6) Click the “Download” button (Download EEPROM Data) in “EEPROM Operations”. (EEPROM
data write is completed.)
Depending on the level of a main control board failure (parallel I/O failure, etc.), however,
EEPROM data may be unable to be uploaded.
In such a case, use the maintenance utility to perform the following adjustment after replacing the
main control board:
• Setting the LED head drive time (Section 4.2.1)
• Setting the LED head dot count (Section 4.2.2)
• Setting specifications (ODA/OEL/INT-A/INT-L)
