rent flows in the power cord.
(3) Do not insert many cords in an outlet. Afire can be occurred due to flow over current in an outlet.
(4) Do not put water or extraneous matter in the PRINTER. Please do not put water, other liquid, pin, clip, etc. It
can cause a fire, electric shock, or malfunction. If this occurs, turn off the power and remove the power plug
from outlet immediately.
(5) Do not touch the power plug with wet hand. When servicing, remove the power plug from outlet. Do not insert
or take off it with wet hand. Electric shock can be occurr.
(6) Caution when inserting or taking off the power plug. The power plug has to be inserted completely. If not, a fire
can be caused due to poor contact. When taking off the power plug, grip the plug and take it off. If grip the line
and pull over, it could be damaged. A fire or electric shock could happen.
(7) Management of power cord. Do not bend, twist, or bind it and place other materials on it. Do not fix with sta-
ples. If the power cord gets damaged, a fire or electric shock can happen. Adamaged power cord must be
replaced immediately. Do not repair the damaged part and reuse it. A repaired part with plastic tape can be
cause a fire or electric shock. Do not spread chemicals on the power cord. Do not spread insecticide on the
power cord. Afire or electric shock can be happen due to thinner(weak) cover of the power cord.
(8) Check whether the power outlet and the power plug are damaged, pressed, chopped, or blazing fire or not.
When such inferiorities are found, repair it immediately. Do not make it pressed or chopped when moving the
machine.
(9) Caution when there is thundering or lightning, and being flash of lightening. It causes a fire or electric shock.
Take the power plug off there is thunder. Do not touch cable and device when thundering and flash of lighten-
ing.
(10) Avoid the place where is moisture or has dust. Do not install the printer where lots of dust or around humidifi-
er. A fire can occurred. A plug part need to clean well with dried fabric to remove dust. If water drops are
dripped on the place covered with dust, a fire can occurred.
(11) Avoid direct sunlight. Do not install the printer near window where direct contacts to the sunlight. If the
machine contacts sunlight long time, the machine cannot work properly because inner temperature of the
machine is getting hotter. A fire can occur.
(12) Turn off the power and take off the plug when smoke, strange smell, or sound from the machine. If you keep
using it, a fire can be occurred.
(13) Do not insert steel or metal piece inside/outside of the machine. Do not put steel or metal piece into a ventila-
tor. An electric shock could happened.

Please confirm whether it is balanced or not after installation. If it is unbalanced, an accident can be hap-
pened due to the machine falling over.
(2) Be careful not to insert a finger or hair in the rotating unit.
Be careful not to insert a finger of hair in the rotating unit (motor, fan, paper feeding part, etc) while the
machine is operating. Once it happens, you could be harmed.
(3) Do not place a pot containing water/chemical or small metals. If they got caught into the inner side of
machine, a fire or electric shock can be occurred.
(4) Do not install it where lots of moisture or dust exists or where raindrop reaches. A fire or electric shock
can be caused.

Precautions

1.3 ESD Precautions
Certain semiconductor devices can be easily damaged by static electricity. Such components are commonly called
“Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices”, or ESDs. Examples of typical ESDs are: integrated circuits, some field
effect transistors, and semiconductor “chip” components.
The techniques outlined below should be followed to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by
static electricity.
Caution >>Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.
1. Immediately before handling a semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any
electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, employ a commercially available wrist strap device, which should be removed for your personal safety reasons prior to applying power to the
unit under test.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ESDs, place the assembly on a conductive surface, such
as aluminum or copper foil, or conductive foam, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup in the vicinity of the
assembly .
3. Use only a grounded tip soldering iron to solder or desolder ESDs.
4. Use only an “anti-static” solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified as “anti-static” can
generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ESDs.
5. Do not use Freon-propelled chemicals. When sprayed, these can generate electrical charges sufficient to dam-
age ESDs.
6. Do not remove a replacement ESD from its protective packaging until immediately before installing it. Most
replacement ESDs are packaged with all leads shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil, or a comparable conductive material.
7. Immediately before removing the protective shorting material from the leads of a replacement ESD, touch the
protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.
8. Maintain continuous electrical contact between the ESD and the assembly into which it will be installed, until
completely plugged or soldered into the circuit.
9. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ESDs. Normal motions, such as the brushing
together of clothing fabric and lifting one’s foot from a carpeted floor, can generate static electricity sufficient to
damage an ESD.

3.1.5 LSU (Laser Scanner Unit)
The LSU unit is controlled by video controller. It scans the video data received from video controller with laser beam
by using the rotation principle of the polygon mirror to create the latent image on the OPC drum. It is the core part of
LBP.
The OPC drum rotates as the same speed as the paper feeding speed. It creates the /HSYNC signal and sends it
to the engine when the laser beam of the LSU reaches the end of the polygon mirror, and the engine detects the
/HSYNC signal to arrange the vertical line of the image on the paper. After detecting the /HSYNC signal, the image
data is sent to the LSU to arrange the its margin on the paper. The one side of the polygon mirror is one line for
scanning..

3.2.4 Sensor Controller
3.2.4.1 Paper Feeding/Width
When a paper passes an actuator of a feed sensor unit after feeding a paper into a set,it detects a signal of
the photo interrupter and informs the paper feeding status to CPU. After sensing the signal and certain time
later, it strews an image data.(Related in Paper Front Edge Adjustment)
If it could not detect the feed sensor within 1 second after feeding a paper, a paper jam0 (CPU#_) occurs.
ML-1610 differs from other general printers because it doesn’t have a paper empty sensor. It recognizes
the paper existing status by using a firmware. If a paper is not fed, it recognizes the state as no paper (Red
and Yellow lights turn on among other LEDs). With the same principle, it senses the OPC unit. After OPC
unit is mounted,the actuator operates. When it passes the actuator of sensor unit, it detects the signal of
the photo interrupter, informs the existing OPC unit to CPU, and then stays at the status.
3.2.4.2 Paper Empty Sensing
The paper empty is detected by the empty sensor mounted to an engine board and the actuator mounted
to a frame. Paper senses the on/off time of the empty sensor by using CPU and informs the normal
operation status and the jam occurrence status to CPU.
3.2.4.3 Jam Cover/Cover Open Sensing
ML-1610 uses two M/S:one senses the cover open and the other senses the jam cover open.
The cover open sensor is located on the left bottom of HVPS.When the front cover is open, +24V supplied
to each unit (DC fan,Solenoid,Main Motor,Polygon Motor Unit of LSU in Fusing Unit,and HVPS)is
interrupted.
The jam cover open sensor is located on the left bottom of SMPS. When the jam cover is open, +24V
supplied to each unit (DC fan, Solenoid, Main Motor, Polygon Motor Unit of LSU in Fusing Unit, and HVPS)
is interrupted.
D0 bit of CPU detects the jam cover open/cover open, and D7 bit of CPU detects the existence of OPC.
In this case, it informs the status to user by turning on the red LED among OP panel LEDs.
3.2.4.4 Solenoid Driving Circuit
The solenoid consists of two used for paper pick-up and MP signal. D4 bit of CPU turns it on/off, and its
driving time is 300ms. The diode protects the drive TR from the pulse (noise)generated by de-energizing
operation of solenoid.
