3. BASIC OPERATION
3.1 NORMAL MODE AND SORT/STACK MODE
[D]
Copies exiting the copier pass through the entrance guide pla te [A] . The
transport roller will send cop ies eit her t o the pro of tray or to each bin,
depending on the selected mode.
During copying, all rollers in th e sorter stapler transpo rt th e pa pe r at a spe ed
which depends on the cop ier. When the trailin g ed ge of th e cop y passe s the
fusing exit sensor, th e spe ed of th e rolle rs chan ge s to 600 mm/s. This makes
enough time for the jogger plat e to squa re th e sta ck of pape r and to sta ck the
paper smoothly into the bins.
[E]
[A]

A555D500.wmf
- Normal (proof) mode -
When the Start key is pressed, the tran sport motor [B] energizes to ro ta te the
transport roller. The tran spo rt rolle r sends copie s to the pro of tray dire ctly.
- Sort mode -
When sort mode is selected, the bin drive motor [C] energize s to rot ate the
helical wheels. The helical wheels [D] rotate twice to move the top bin to the
transport roller position , th en the first cop y is delivered to the top bin.
After the first copy of the first orig ina l has been fed to th e top bin , th e bin
drive motor moves the bins up one step (the helical wheels rotate once) so
that the second copy of the first orig ina l will be delive red to the ne xt bin .
The jogger plat e [E ] squares the copies aft er each copy has been fed to a
bin. After the copies of the first orig inal have been delivered to each bin, the
sorter stapler maintains its statu s (the bin drive moto r does not rota te ).

The first copy of the second origina l is delivere d to the fina l bin th at was used
for the first original, the n th e fin al bin desce nd s one step . The bins de scen d
each time a copy of the seco nd origin al is delive red .
The direction of motion of the bins alternates for each page of the original
until the copy run is finished.
- Stack mode -
[A]
A555D501.wmf
When stack mode is selected, the to p bin adva nce s to th e tra nsp ort roller
position in the same way as in sort mode.
After the first copy is delive red to the top bin, the jogger plate [A] moves
across to square the cop y. The jogg er pla te squa res th e copies after each
copy has been fed to a bin.
After one set of copies for the first orig ina l has been delive red to the to p bin,
the bin drive motor moves th e bin s up on e ste p. Then , on e set of cop ies of
the second original will be delivered to th e next bin .

A555D503.wmf
When the jogger plate has squ are d the fin al set of cop ies, the grip arms [A ]
move inside the front sid e fra me an d cat ch th e pa pe r. The grip asse mbly
brings the copies into the stapler [B], and the stapler staples the copies.
After stapling, the grip asse mbly [C] bring s the stap led copie s back to the bin
and releases the copies. Then the grip asse mbly goes ba ck to th e no rmal
position. The bin either advances or descends one step depending on
whether the number of originals is odd or even [D].
When the final set of copies has been stapled, the bins go back to the
standby position.
A555-8

10 May 1996 BASIC OPERATION
There are two staple modes.
Automatic Stapling
In ADF mode, when staple mode is select ed bef ore pressin g th e St art key,
copies will be delivered to each bin and stapled automa tically.
Manual Stapling
In platen cover mode , af te r t he copies have been sorted into the bins, the
staple mode LED starts to blink. If the sort key is presse d while this LED is
blinking, the copies will be stapled.

[A]
[A]
[B]
[C]
[D]
A555D504.wmf
The bin drive mechanism moves th e bin s up an d do wn to receive copies.
There are four pins on each bin. Two pins fit into the slot s [A] in bot h th e fro nt
and rear side frames; the pin s slide up and down in these slot s. The other
two pins fit into the slot in the helica l wheels; as th e helical wheels turn, these
pins move up and down, and the other pins move up and down in the slots at
the other end of the bin.
The bin drive motor [B] drives the helical whee ls thro ugh four timin g belts [C] .
When the motor rotates clockwise, the bins lift; whe n it rot ates
counterclockwise, the bins lower. There is a wheel sensor actuator [D] on the
front helical wheel; the actu at or ha s a slot which detect s wh en the helical
wheel has rotated once.
When the bins are advanced, the helical wheels rotate once for each step. As
the pitch of the spiral on the helical wheel is greater when the bins are at the
staple and paper exit are a th an when the bins are elsewh ere , th e amo un t of
bin shift is greater when the bins are at the sta ple and pap er exit area . This
leaves enough space to st aple an d sta ck t he copies. Also, this reduces th e
total machine heig ht .

When the main switch is turned on, the sorter staple r in itia lizes itse lf to check
whether the component part s work or not . At this time , th e bin drive mot or
raises the bins for a few moments, then it lowers the bins until the bott om bin

The jogger motor [A] drives the jog ger plate [B] through the timing belt s [C].
The jogger is at home posit ion when the actu at or on the jo gger plate goes
into the jogger home position sen sor [D] .
At standby, the jogg er pla te is at the home posit ion. When the Start key is
pressed, the copier sends the paper size inf orma tio n to the sorte r stapler.
In sort, staple, and stack modes, the jogger moves three times to square the
stack of paper. First, whe n th e pa pe r has be en fed completely into the bin (at
the proper time after th e copy has passed through th e en tra nce sensor [E],
depending on the pap er len gt h), the jogger motor moves the jogg er pla te out
of the jogger home posit ion . The n, the jogg er mot or drive s the jogg er pla te to
the width of the cop y. Fina lly, th e jog ge r plate moves inward to push all the
copies against the front side frame, which squares th e sheets of paper. Then
the jogger plate returns to the home position.

The grip assembly consists of the grip motor [A], th e timing belt [B ], the drive
gear [C], the grip home position sen sor [D] , an d the cam ge ar [E ].
The grip motor drives the cam gear through the timing belt and drive gear.
Cam gear rotation drives the mechanism that catch es th e cop ies an d moves
the grip arm unit [F]. When the cam gear rotates clockwise one full turn, the
grip arm moves to catch the cop ies an d ret urn s to th e ho me po sitio n to
prepare for stapling. Aft er sta plin g, the cam gear rota te s coun terclockwise
once so that the stapled copies go back to the bin, and the cam gear retu rns
to its home position.
When the cam pushes the roller [G] on the lever [H] and th e lever pushes the
grip arm, the grip arm can catch the copie s.
A pin [I] on the cam gear fits into the slot in the grip arm un it. So, when the
cam gear rotates, the slot moves the grip arm unit inward and out ward .
The actuator [J] on the cam gear activa te s the grip home po sitio n sen sor
