caused.

(2) Use authorized power cord. Do use the power cord supplied with PRINTER. Afire can happen when over cur-

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.

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.

3.2.4 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.
