IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICES

PREVENTION OF PHYSICAL INJURY

1. While the machine warms up, it will suddenly start turning to perform the
process control data initialization. Keep hands away from any mechanical
and electrical components during this period.

2. Before disassembling or assembling parts of the copier and peripherals,
make sure that the copier and the second sorter power cord is unplugged.

3. The wall outlet should be near the copier and easily accessible.

4. Note that some components of the copier, the paper tray unit, and the
peripherals are supplied with electrical voltage even if the main switch is
turned off.

5. 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.

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. Never operate the copier without the ozone filters installed.

2. Always replace the ozone filters with the specified ones at the specified
intervals.

3. 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 boards on the copier and the RDH
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.

SAFETY AND ECOLOGICAL NOTES FOR DISPOSAL

1. Do not incinerate the toner cartridge or the used toner. Toner dust may
ignite suddenly when exposed to open flame.

2. Dispose of used toner, developer, and photoconductors according to
local regulations.

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.

Descriptions

Exposure Glass

Outside

The ID sensor pattern cannot always be used for the image density detection
due to the position of the ID sensor and both the positioning and size of the
ID sensor pattern on the drum.
The outside of the exposure glass (no light) is exposed on the drum and used
as the ID sensor pattern in reduction mode.

The potential of the drum in these cases, the no light and the ID sensor
pattern exposure, is not the same. So the ID sensor bias (VBP) is determined
using two base voltages, V0 for the no-light condition and Vd for the pattern.

VBP (no light) = --360 + V0 (Reproduction ratio < 77%)
VBP (ID Pattern) = --360 + Vd (Reproduction ratio ≥ 77%)

The Vd value which is determined during the process control data
initialization will be used.

V01 and V02, which are explained in the process control section, are used for
the VBP calculation as the V0 (drum potential after the charge corona) value.

The VBP can be changed by the SP mode (Toner Density Correction).
The following compensation will be applied to the above VBP.

16.1 OVERVIEW

16.1.1 No Inversion Original Cycle

[E] [B]

When the start key is pressed, the blower motor start to rotate. It supplies air
to the air knife and draws air from the vacuum section. Sheets are separated
at the leading edge [A] of the paper stack. The air comes from the nozzle [B]
and the bottom sheet of the stack paper is held against the feed-in belts [C]
by air suction [D]. The feed motor drives the feed drive [E], transport [F], and
right turn [G] rollers. The bottom sheet of the paper is delivered through the
feed drive, transport, right turn rollers to the registration section [H] and is
stopped. To stop the original sheet at the proper position in the registration
section, the feed motor rotation speed is reduced by half when the 2nd
transport sensor [I] detects the leading edge of the original. The belt drive
motor then starts to rotate the transport belt [J] to direct the sheet of paper
onto exposure glass. At the same time, the next original is fed.

At the appropriate time, the transport belt delivers the original on the
exposure glass to the inverter section [A], and the following original is moved
onto the exposure glass, and the 3rd sheet of original is fed. The 1st original
is passed into the inverter section through the inverter entrance [B], inverter
middle [C], and inverter [D] rollers until the trailing edge of the original is
detected by the 1st inverter sensor [E]. The inverter middle [C] and inverter
[D] rollers then rotate in the opposite direction. The inverter exit rollers [F]
rotates only in the paper exit direction. However, the contact between the
inverter exit roller [F] and inverter exit driven roller [G] is released when the
2nd inverter sensor [H] is activated by the original. This way, the inverter exit
roller does not interfere with the original switch back cycle while the inverter
middle and inverter rollers begin reverse rotation. The original is delivered
through the inverter entrance [B] and inverter exit [F] rollers to the original
table. This continues until all originals have been returned to the original
table. The originals are stacked on the original table where they wait for the
next copy cycle.

Until the original reaches to the inverter section [A], the sequence is the same
as for no inversion original cycle. The inverter rollers [B] rotate in the original
exit direction. The original is now inverted and exited to the original table [C].
This continues until all originals have been inverted. The inverted originals
are then fed from the original table for copying of the reverse side. The
sequence is the same as for the front side copying. The originals return and
are stacked on the original table where they wait for the next copy cycle.

When the start key is pressed, the separator motor [B] rotates until the
original separator actuator [C] activates the separator home position sensor
[D]. The original separator is set on the original top sheet. The originals which
are fed and returned to the original table are stacked on the original
separator. When the last original (top sheet under the original separator) is
fed from the original table, the original separator drops and activates the
separator sensor [E].

If the next copy cycle continues, the separator motor rotates and the original
separator is set on the original top sheet again after the trailing edge of the
last original sheet passes through the exit sensor [F].

2. Blower motor speed

To ensure good original separation and original re-stacking on the original
table, the blower motor speed is changed according to the original stack
height, or the number of originals stacked. The blower motor speed is
determined for the 1st copy cycle by the original stack height as detected by
the original height sensor [A] (Table 1). From the 2nd copy cycle, the blower
motor speed is determined by the number of originals counted by the main
PCB (Table 2).

When the number of the originals is 3 or less, the original set sensor is
de-activated when the last original is fed and before the 1st original returns to
the original table. During this period the blower motor stops rotating to ensure
correct stacking the originals.

16.6 ORIGINAL POSITIONING

Thin Paper Mode

Thick Paper Mode

Customers can choose the paper transport mode by "User Tool" depending
on the thickness of the original used.

-- In thin paper mode --

The belt motor stops exactly when the trailing edge of the original passes the
right scale [A] edge. (The timing is measured by the timing sensor after
registration sensor is activated.)

-- In thick paper mode --

To correct skewing on the exposure glass, the original runs 10 mm after the
trailing edge passes the right scale. The belt motor then reverses and the
original travels until it meets the right scale.

If extremely thin paper is used in the thick paper mode, the paper may float
near the scale. This will result in poor image quality or original copy wrinkling.

The factory setting is "Thin Paper Mode:.
