GENERAL
The major differences between the AR-800 and the AR-650 are

lie in the copy (print) speed and the maintenance cycle.
(Max. copy (print) speed)
AR-650: 65CPM (PPM)
AR-800: 80CPM (PPM)
The process speed is the same, but the paper feed interval
differs.
(Maintenance cycle and consumable parts replacement cycle)
AR-650: Every 400K
AR-800: Every 440K
2. Hardware
Differences between the AR-800 and the AR-650
1) The PWA-F-LGC PWB differs.
AR-650: PWA-F-LGC-300
AR-800: PWA-F-LGC-304
(Different parts): Connector, EEPROM, FLASH ROM
The above two PWBs are not compatible each other.
2) Front cabinet

Chapter 14. FUSER UNIT
Since the temperature control of the fusing section on page
14-5 differs between the AR-800 and the AR-650, the
temperature control of the AR-800 is added.
Only the contents of page 14-5 are described.
B. Actual wiring diagram
Since the PWA-F-LGC-304 (for AR-800) is newly employed,
the connector wiring is changed and the actual wiring
diagram is changed. The actual wiring diagram for the AR800 is newly prepared.
C. Service Handbook
Though the maintenance cycle and the consumable parts
replacement cycle differ between the AR-800 and the AR650, the contents of the Service Handbook are not changed.
Be sure to note the maintenance cycle of both models for
servicing.
AR-650: Every 400K
AR-800: Every 440K
D. Parts Guide
Only the different sections between the AR-650 and the AR800 are prepared.
Sections 1, 2, 5, 6, 13, 31, 39, 47, 62, 86, 101, 203, 204
