[1] PRODUCT OUTLINE

This inserter is an optional unit for the MX-M623/M753 series of digital complex machines. With the inserter installed, blank sheets or printed sheets can be inserted as covers (made of cardboard) or tabbed sheets without being subject to the printing process (and without passing through a fixing unit). When the inserter is combined with a finisher (optional) and a punch unit (optional), printed sheets can proceed to the hole punching or stapling process without being subject to the copying process (or without passing through the main unit).

3. Operational description

A. Through-mode operation of inserter (Online)

Step 01: The inserter receives an operation command sent by the

main unit.

Step 02: The transport motor rotates at a speed specified by the main

unit.

Horizontal transport rollers 1 (inlet rollers) and horizontal transport rollers 2 (paper exit rollers) rotate.

Step 03: A sheet exits from the main unit.

2. Function outline

A. Operation mode

(1) Normal (online mode)

• Through (horizontal transport)

• Straight mode (normal paper feeding from inserter)

• Reverse mode (reverse paper feeding from inserter)

(2) Offline mode

• Punching mode (inserter operation = normal paper feeding)

• Stapling mode (inserter operation = normal paper feeding)

B. Delivery speed

(1) Delivery speed

• Straight mode: 800 mm/sec

• Saddle mode (reverse): 420 mm/sec

Step 04: The inserter paper exit sensor detects the leading edge of

the sheet.

Step 05: The inserter paper exit sensor detects the trailing edge the

sheet.

Step 06: The transport motor stops.

Horizontal transport rollers 1 and horizontal transport rollers 2 stop.

MX-CF10 OPERATIONAL DESCRIPTION 4 - 1

B. Normal paper feed operation of inserter (online/

offline)

[Paper loading]

Step 01: A sheet is placed in the paper feed tray of the inserter.

Step 02: The START LED lights up in blue on the operator panel of the

inserter.

Step 03: An operation command is sent by the main unit, or a user

presses the START switch on the operator panel of the inserter.

Step 04: The inserter registration clutch is turned ON to lock the regis-

tration rollers.

[Separation]

Step 09: The inserter paper feed motor starts to rotate in the forward

direction. The registration rollers and vertical transport rollers rotate.

Step 10: The inserter timing sensor detects the leading edge of the

sheet.

Step 11: The leading edge of the sheet passes between the vertical

transport rollers.

Step 12: When sheet transport needs to be suspended for adjusting

the space between sheets, the inserter paper feed motor stops to stop the sheet.

[Transport]

Step 13: When a predetermined waiting time period has passed, The

inserter paper feed motor restarts.

(If the transport motor has stopped, it is started.)

Step 14: The inserter paper exit sensor is turned ON, and detects the

leading edge of the sheet.

Step 15: The inserter timing sensor is turned OFF, and the trailing

edge of the sheet is detected.

Step 16: When the trailing edge of the sheet leaves the vertical trans-

port rollers, the inserter paper feed motor stops.

(When there is a next sheet to be inserted, the inserter paper feed motor reverses to take it in.

[Paper exit]

Step 05: The inserter paper feed motor reverses to lower the pickup

roller, thereby taking in the sheet from the paper feed tray.

Step 06: The inserter registration sensor detects the leading edge of

the sheet.

Step 07: The sheet makes contact with the registration rollers to form

a loop, thereby stopping the inserter paper feed motor.

Step 08: The inserter registration clutch is turned OFF.

[Leading-edge registration]

Step 17: The inserter paper exit sensor is turned OFF, and the trailing

edge of the sheet is detected.

Step 18: When there aren’ t any more sheets to be inserted, the trans-

port motor stops.

Note: When the transport motor (horizontal transport rollers 1 and

horizontal transport rollers 2) rotates at a speed specified by the main unit in the online mode, it rotates at either of the speeds shown below in the offline mode.

∗ Transport speed in offline mode

Small-sized sheet (of which length detected in the tray is 216 mm or less): 1000 mm/sec Large-sized sheet (of which length detected in the tray is more than 216 mm): 800 mm/sec

MX-CF10 OPERATIONAL DESCRIPTION 4 - 2

C. Reverse paper feeding operation of inserter

[Paper loading]

Step 01: A sheet is placed in the paper feed tray of the inserter.

Step 02: The START LED lights up in blue on the operator panel of the

inserter.

Step 03: The inserter reserves an operation command sent by the

main unit.

Step 04: The inserter registration clutch is turned ON to lock the regis-

tration rollers.

[Separation]

Step 09: The inserter paper feed motor starts to rotate in the forward

direction. The registration rollers and vertical transport rollers rotate. If the sheet is the first sheet, the flapper solenoid in the reverse section is turned ON at this time.

Step 10: The inserter timing sensor detects the leading edge of the

sheet.

Step 11: The leading edge of the sheet passes between the vertical

transport rollers.

Step 12: When sheet transport needs to be suspended for adjusting

the space between sheets, the inserter paper feed motor stops to stop the sheet.

[Entering reverse section]

Step 05: The inserter paper feed motor reverses to lower the pickup

roller, thereby taking in the sheet from the paper feed tray.

Step 06: The inserter registration sensor detects the leading edge of

the sheet.

Step 07: The sheet makes contact with the registration rollers to form

a loop, thereby stopping the inserter paper feed motor.

Step 08: The inserter registration clutch is turned OFF.

[Leading-edge registration]

Step 13: When a predetermined waiting time period has passed, the

inserter flapper solenoid is turned ON, the inserter paper feed motor restarts, and the inserter reverse motor starts to rotate in the forward direction.

Step 14: The inserter reverse sensor is turned ON, and detects the

leading edge of the sheet.

Step 15: When the trailing edge of the sheet leaves the inserter timing

sensor, the inserter paper feed motor starts to slow down to stop. (After the inserter paper feed motor has completely stopped, if there is a next sheet to be inserted, the inserter paper feed motor starts to reverse to take it in.)

Step 16: The inserter reverse sensor is turned OFF. The trailing edge

of the sheet is detected, and the flapper solenoid in the reverse section is turned OFF. When the sheet travels a predetermined distance, the inserter reverse motor stops.

A. How to set punching mode

The figure below shows the operator panel.

Setting procedure:

Step 01: Place a sheet in the tray.

Step 02: Press the PUNCH switch on the operator panel.

Step 03: The PUNCH LED lights up to indicate that setting has been

completed.

Step 04: Press the START switch to start operation.

Canceling procedure:

Step 01: Press the PUNCH switch on the operator panel.

Step 02: The PUNCH LED goes out to indicate that setting has been

canceled.

Note: If you cannot make or cancel setting by following the respective

procedures above, refer to section “5.” shown later. When no LEDs are lit, check the setting made by the main unit and the inserter status.

Setting procedure:

Step 01: Place a sheet in the tray.

Step 02: Press the STAPLE MODE switch on the operator panel.

Step 03: Each time you press the switch, the STAPLE MODE LEDs

light up by turns in the following order: 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → All LEDs OFF → 1 → ... (When the saddle mode cannot be used, the order is: 1 → 2 → 3 → All LEDs OFF → 1 → ...)

Step 04: When the desired LED lights up, press the START switch to

start operation.

(Refer to the correspondence between the stapling modes and LEDs shown later.)

Canceling procedure:

Step 01: Press the STAPLE MODE switch on the operator panel.

Step 02: All the STAPLE MODE LEDs go out to indicate that setting

has been canceled.

Note 1: If you cannot make or cancel setting by following the respec-

tive procedures above, refer to section “5.” shown later. When no LEDs are lit, check the setting made by the main unit and the inserter status.
