BASIC OPERATION 6 March 1992

4. BASIC OPERATION

4.1 JOB SHEET READING

[A]

[C][B]

When a job sheet is inserted, the sheet detection sensor [A] detects the leading edge of the job sheet. The job sheet is then fed in by the upper and lower transport rollers [B, C].

6 March 1992 BASIC OPERATION

[A]

[C]

[B]

[D]

[F]

[E]

[G]

The mark detection sensor [A] detects the reference line [D] and reads the job sheet. The mark detection sensor is composed of 4 photosensors. The sensor on the right [B] detects the reference line and reference marks [E], and the other sensors [C] read the job sheet data.

The menu reader CPU monitors signals from the mark detection sensor and measures the time between each reference mark. There are 25 reference marks along the sheet edge. After the 25th reference mark is read, the job sheet is fed out by the upper and lower transport rollers [F, G].

The operation panel status changes after the job sheet is read, and the job sheet information is sent to the copier CPU.

5 Blinks Blinks

A job sheet is being read or the copier Start key stays red. A job sheet read error has occurred; the menu reader stops reading. Check the job sheet to make sure it is marked correctly and insert it again. Note: The red light blinks for 6 seconds; then, it stays on. A conversion error has occurred; insert the job sheet again. Note: The green light blinks for 6 seconds; then, it stays on. The RAM contents have been changed or the menu reader has failed to read the ROM contents.

Note: Turn the main switch off and on.

6 March 1992 BASIC OPERATION

4.3PROCESSING ERRORS

Reference Line

If the reference line does not reach the mark detection sensor within 2.6 seconds after the job sheet is fed in, the job sheet is fed out. (Feeding out takes 1.6 seconds.) The red light blinks for 6 seconds; then, the job sheet can be reinserted.

Reference Mark

If the mark detection sensor detects the reference line and then fails to detect a reference mark within 0.2 seconds, or if it fails to detect a reference mark within 0.1 seconds, the job sheet is fed out and the red light blinks for 6 seconds; then, the job sheet can be reinserted.

NOTE:Occasionally, the job sheet feeds out to the rear side of the menu

reader after a failure to detect the reference mark number.

Marking

When two or more selections are made for the same item, the menu reader cannot process the job sheet and the red light blinks (indicating an error).

NOTE:1. When an item is not marked on the job sheet, the menu reader

automatically reads as follows:

-- Item -- -- Indicator - Copy Quantity 1 Reproduction Ratio 100%

2. The job sheet may jam inside the menu reader if it is smaller than the specified size.

CAUTION: Sensors were set at the factory and cannot be adjusted in

the field.
