SBU (Sensor Board Unit)
1. Exposure
A xenon lamp exposes the original. Light reflected from the original passes to the CCD, where it is converted into an analog data signal. This data is converted to a digital signal, processed and stored in the memory. At the time of printing, the data is retrieved and sent to the laser diode.
2. Drum Charge
In the dark, the charge roller gives a negative charge to the organic photo-conductive (OPC) drum. The charge remains on the surface of the drum because the OPC layer has a high electrical resistance in the dark.
3. Laser Exposure
The processed data scanned from the original is retrieved from the memory and transferred to the drum by a laser beam, which forms an electrical latent image on the drum surface. The amount of charge remaining as a latent image on the drum depends on the laser beam intensity, which is controlled by the BICU board.

D158/D159/D160/D161/D170 |
SBU (Sensor Board Unit)
4. Development
The magnetic developer brush on the development roller comes in contact with the latent image on the drum surface. Toner particles are electrostatically attached to the areas of the drum surface where the laser reduced the negative charge on the drum.
5. ID Sensor
The laser forms a sensor pattern on the drum surface. The ID sensor measures the reflectivity of the pattern. The output signal is one of the factors used for toner supply control. Also, the ID sensor measures the reflectivity of the drum surface. The output signal is used for charge roller voltage control.
6. Image Transfer
Paper is fed to the area between the drum surface and the transfer roller at the proper time for aligning the copy paper and the developed image on the drum surface. Then, the transfer roller applies a high positive charge to the reverse side of the paper. This positive charge pulls the toner particles from the drum surface onto the paper. At the same time, the paper is electrostatically attracted to the transfer roller.
7. Paper Separation
Paper separates from the drum as a result of the electrostatic attraction between the paper and the transfer roller. The discharge plate (grounded) helps separate the paper from the drum.
8. Cleaning
The cleaning blade removes any toner remaining on the drum surface after the image transfers to the paper.
9. Quenching
The light from the quenching lamp electrically neutralizes the charge on the drum surface.

The original on the exposure glass or ARDF exposure glass reflects the light emitted from the scanner lamp. The reflected light goes to the CCD on the sensor board by way of the 1st and 2nd scanners. The sensor board converts the CCD analog signals into digital signals.
When the original is manually placed on the exposure glass, the scanner motor pulls the 1st and 2nd scanners via mechanical linkage. The original is scanned from left to right.
When the original is fed from the optional ARDF, it is automatically transported onto the ARDF exposure glass, and to the original exit. The original does not stay on the glass; but goes to the exit. The 1st and 2nd scanners stay at their home positions.

4.2 SCANNER DRIVE
The scanner motor [A] drives the 1st scanner [B] and the 2nd scanner [C] through the scanner drive pulley, scanner drive shaft [D], and two scanner wires [E].
Book mode -
The SBU board controls the scanner drive motor. The 2nd scanner speed is half that of the 1st scanner.
In reduction or enlargement mode, the scanning speed depends on the magnification ratio. The returning speed is always the same, whether in full size or magnification mode. The image length change in the sub scan direction is done by changing the scanner motor speed. In the main scan direction it is done by image processing on the BICU board.
You can adjust the magnification in the sub-scan direction by changing the scanner motor speed with SP4-008.
ARDF mode -
The scanners always stay in their home position (the scanner HP sensor [F] detects the 1st scanner) to scan the original. The ARDF motor feeds the original through the ARDF. In reduction/enlargement mode, the image length change in the sub-scan direction is done by changing the ARDF motor speed. Magnification in the main scan direction is done in the BICU board. This is the same as for book mode.
You can adjust magnification in the sub-scan direction by changing the ARDF motor speed with SP6-017.

4.3 ORIGINAL SIZE DETECTION IN PLATEN MODE
There are no APS sensor (width) in the scanner unit. However, the original width can be detected by CCD. The APS sensor (length) [A] detects the original length.
The BICU board checks each sensor status when the platen cover sensor [B] is activated as it is closed. It detects the original size by the on/off signals it gets from each sensor.
If the copy is made with the platen cover fully open, the CPU determines the original size from the sensor outputs after the Start key is pressed.

4.4 ANTI-CONDENSATION HEATER
The anti-condensation heater is available as an optional unit. The anti-condensation heater prevents condensation on the mirrors. Condensation can occur when the scanner unit is, for example, moved from a cold room to a warm room. Condensation can cause abnormal images.

5.2 SCANNER DRIVE
Models D160, D161 and D170 are flatbed scanners using a CIS.
To scan an original, the scanner motor (A) moves the carriage on which the CIS (B) is mounted along the carrier guide rail.
The CIS can be raised or lowered using the side guide rails (C) and adjusted relative to the main scanning direction using the center guide rail (D). This is a factory adjustment; do not do this in the field.
The size of the original is detected by the APS sensors (E) on the bottom frame.

6.2 AUTO POWER CONTROL (APC)
The LD driver IC drives the laser diode. To prevent the intensity of the laser beam from changing because of the temperature, the machine monitors the current passing through the laser diode (LD). The machine adjusts the current to the laser diode by comparing it with the reference level from the reference circuit.
This auto power control is done just after the machine is turned on and during printing.
The laser diode power is adjusted on the production line.
Do not touch the variable resistors on the LD unit in the field.

6.3 LD SAFETY SWITCH
To ensure technician and user safety and to prevent the laser beam from inadvertently switching on during servicing, safety switches are located at the front and right covers. The switches are installed on the +5VLD line through the BICU board.
When the front cover or the right cover is opened, the power supply to the laser diode is interrupted.

8.1 OVERVIEW
This copier uses a drum charge roller to charge the drum. The drum charge roller [A] always contacts the surface of the drum [B] to give it a negative charge of –950 V.
The high voltage supply board gives a negative charge of –1700 V to the drum charge roller through the screw [C] and terminal plate [D]. This voltage can be changed using SP2-001- 001 (Charge Roller Bias Adjust Setting (Copying)).
