1. Before disassembling or assembling parts of the copier and peripherals,
make sure that the copier power cord is unplugged.
2. The wall outlet should be near the copier and easily accessible.
3. Note that some components of the copier and the paper tray unit are
supplied with electrical voltage even if the main switch is turned off.
4. If any adjustment or operation check has to be made with exterior
covers off or open while the main switch is turned on, keep hands away
from electrified or mechanically driven components.
5. If the start key is pressed before the copier completes the warm-up
period, keep hands away from the mechanical and the electrical
components as the copier starts making copies as soon as the warm-up
period is completed.
6. The inside and the metal parts of the fusing unit become extremely hot
while the copier is operating. Be careful to avoid touching those
components with your bare hands.
HEALTH SAFETY CONDITIONS
1. Toner and developer are non-toxic, but if you get either of them in your
eyes by accident, it may cause temporary eye discomfort. Try to remove
with eye drops or flush with water as first aid. If unsuccessful, get
medical attention.
OBSERVANCE OF ELECTRICAL SAFETY STANDARDS
1. The copier and its peripherals must be installed and maintained by a
customer service representative who has completed the training course
on those models.
2. The RAM board on the main control board has a lithium battery which
can explode if replaced incorrectly. Replace the battery only with an
identical one. The manufacturer recommends replacing the entire RAM
board. Do not recharge or burn this battery. Used batteries must be
handled in accordance with local regulations.
Page 2
SAFETY AND ECOLOGICAL NOTES FOR DISPOSAL
1. Do not incinerate the toner bottle or the used toner. Toner dust may
ignite suddenly when exposed to open flame.
2. Dispose of used toner, developer, and organic photoconductor
according to local regulations. (These are non-toxic supplies.)
3. Dispose of replaced parts in accordance with local regulations.
4. When keeping used lithium batteries in order to dispose of them later,
do not put more than 100 batteries per sealed box. Storing larger
numbers or not sealing them apart may lead to chemical reactions and
heat build-up.

SERVICE MANUAL
The A204 copier is based on the A153 copier.
The A206 copier is based on the A155 copier.
The A207 copier is based on the A156 copier.
The A208 copier is based on the A157 copier.
The A210 copier is based on the A159 copier.
The A211 copier is based on the A160 copier.
Only the differences from the base copiers are described in the

as an insert version of the base copier’s service manual, although
it has a separate binder. It should always be utilized together with
the base copier’s service manual.

6.6 TEMPERATURE CORRECTION
[A]
Copier
A204D506.wmf
✽ The temperature correction has changed as explained below. Also, the
machine no longer does the drum rotation time correction.
The temperature correction difference between the A204, A206, and A207
copiers and the A208, A210, and A211 copiers is a result of the difference in
copy processing speed (240 mm/s for the A204, A206, and A207 copiers,
compared with 200 mm/s for the A208, A210, and A211 copiers).
The new drum charge roller needs only about half the correction voltage
used for the base copier. Also, the level of correction needed for the lowest
temperature point (5°C) is about the same as the normal room temperature
point for the base copier [A].
In the base machine, rotation time correction was only needed for low
temperatures where the temperature correction was large. In the new
machines, the temperature correction is never greater than –300 V, so the
rotation time correction has been eliminated.

6.7 TONER END RECOVERY
If the front cover switch or the main switch is turned off and on during a toner
near-end/end condition, the machine will perform the toner end recovery
procedure as shown on the flow chart on the next page.
For the base copier, the toner end sensor checked for toner for a total of 10
seconds. The check stops when the toner supply clutch stops transporting
toner.
For the A204 series, the toner sensor checks for toner for a total of 14
seconds, stopping 2 seconds after the toner supply clutch stops. When the
toner supply clutch stops, any toner present is likely to drop into the
development unit, which will be detected during the final 2 seconds of
detection time. This will decrease the chances of a mis-detection when a new
toner bottle has been installed by the customer.

✽ All of the above-mentioned models use the FRR system.
This model has three paper feed stations: the large capacity tray feed station
[A] (LCT machines only), the upper paper tray feed station (non-duplex
machines only), and the lower paper tray feed station [B].
The LCT holds 1,000 sheets of paper. The upper and lower paper trays are
drawer trays that hold 500 sheets of paper.
Paper can also be fed using the by-pass feed table [C], which uses the feed
mechanism of the LCT feed station. The by-pass feed table can hold 40
sheets of paper. All feed stations use the FRR feed system.
The top sheet of paper separates from the stack and is fed to the relay
rollers, then to the registration rollers.
There are two relay sensors, one located just under each set of relay rollers.
These sensors are used for paper jam detection.

10.2 OIL SUPPLY MECHANISM
[B]
[C]
[A]
[D]
A204D517.wmf
The oil supply is necessary for a 40 cpm copier. An oil supply roller [A] is
installed above the hot roller [B]. It is always in contact with the hot roller, and
applies a light coat of silicone oil as the roller rotates.
The oil supply roller is made of paper soaked with silicone oil wrapped
around the shaft, and covered with PTFE (polytetra fluoroethylene) tube. As
the temperature of the hot roller rises, the PTFE tube contracts and squeezes
the oil-soaked paper, and the oil comes out through the coating.
The oil supply roller cleaning brush [C] under the oil supply roller removes the
toner and paper dust accumulated on the oil supply roller.
The oil supply roller shaft is installed on a one-way bushing [D], to prevent
collected toner from returning to the hot roller surface by the customer
operating the fusing knob manually in the reverse direction.

10.3 FUSING LAMP CONTROL
Copier
A204D514.wmf
There are two fusing lamps in the hot roller: the main fusing lamp (800 W) [A]
and the secondary fusing lamp (350 W) [B].
The main fusing lamp has a much higher wattage that the one in the base
copier, because it is the only lamp that is used during copying to control the
operating temperature of the fusing unit (185°C).
The secondary fusing lamp is only used in the following conditions to help
achieve a faster warm-up time.
•
When the main switch is turned on
•
When exiting from the energy saver mode
The new hot roller’s metal core is thicker than the base copier’s hot roller’s.
The new roller holds heat much better, to allow multicopying at the higher
cpm of this model without the hot roller temperature dropping too far.
However, it takes a lot longer to warm up after switching on (see the
Warm-up Time in the Specifications section).
The temperature is only monitored at the center; there is only one fusing
thermistor. There is also only one thermofuse.
35
Page 39
IMAGE FUSING (A204/A206/A207 COPIERS)31 March 1997
When the main switch turns on, the CPU checks the mains frequency for 500
ms; this is done in case phase control mode is selected later. Then the CPU
turns on the main fusing lamp. After 3 more seconds, the secondary fusing
lamp is turned on. This delay reduces the surge current after the main switch
is turned on.
Both lamps are turned on to raise the temperature of the hot roller’s surface.
When the thermistor detects the operating temperature (185°C), the copier
turns off the secondary fusing lamp, and starts fusing idling for 100 seconds
to warm up the hot roller completely and evenly (the roller has a thicker metal
core), and to distribute the oil. During fusing idling, the temperature is kept at
185°C.
When fusing idling is finished, the copier enters the ready condition. The CPU
keeps the temperature at 185°C by turning off and on the main fusing lamp.
The lamp is turned off at 190°C, and on at 180°C.
If the fusing lamp turns on while the exposure lamp is on, the power supplied
to the exposure lamp may fluctuate, possibly degrading the copy quality. To
prevent this, in this machine, the fusing lamp can either stay off or change
from on to off while the exposure lamp is on.
There are two types of fusing unit control: on/off control, and phase control.
The mode can be selected with SP1-104.
