Keep the machine in horizontal state to maintain the performances.

˚C

4 – 1

5 Avoid installation to a poorly ventilated place.

6 Avoid installation to a place where there are flammable materials

or ammonia gas, etc. If the machine is installed near a diazo copier, the picture quality may be degraded and malfunctions may occur.

(5) Grounding wire connection

1 Connect the grounding wire to prevent against a danger. 2 When connecting the grounding wire, connect only to the ground-

ing object (the grounding terminal of the power outlet, etc.) and never connect to a gas pipe.

Grounding termin al

7 Install near a power outlet.

(2) Space aroun d th e ma chine

Install the machine with its rear side about 10cm apart from the wall in order to allow space to ventilation by the cooling fan. Also allow eno ug h space around the ma chine for prop er op eration.

(3) Installation base

Set the machine in horizontal position in the following procedure. Be sure to use a leve ling instrumen t (UKOGM0054CSZZ) to install the machine on a flat, horizontal place.

(Note) If the machine is not in horizontal position, the toner density

control function may not work normally, resulting in degraded picture quality.

(4) Power sour ce

1 Use the power source of the rated capacity. 2 Avoid complicated wiring. If not, the breaker or the fuse may be

overloaded.

In the c ase of SF- 1020:

The SF- 2020 is p rovided with th e three -way pa per fee d system . The tray is of the u niv er s al type an d has capacit y o f 2 50 sheets. Th e f ront loading system allows the tray to be loaded from the lower side of the front cabinet. (The SF-1 120 has the tw o-way paper feed syst em with one 250-sheet tray and ma nual feed.) The tray has the capacity of 500 sheets (250 sheets for the SF-1120). In addi tion to that, th e option al paper feed uni t allows loading o f 500 sheets more for the SF-CM15 (250 sheets for the SF-CM16).

2) Basic operati ons

(Tray paper feed operat ion)

When the CPFC (Cassette paper feed clutch) turn on, the paper feed roller shaft, t he paper fe ed roller, and the ta ke-up roller rotat e in the direction of A. At the same time, the limiter spring moves down the roller release arm. As a result, the take-up roller falls by its own weight onto the paper surf ace, start ing pape r feed.

2. Developing secti on

1) General descriptions

(1) Two-component developer

The developer is composed of toner and carrier. Carrier serves as a me dium for attachi ng ton er onto the ele ctrostat ic image on the photocondu ctor drum. By stirring toner and carrier, they are rubbed to be charged positive (+) and negative (–) respectively. Since deve loper will deter iorate to degra de copy quality, it shou ld be replaced regularly.

(2) Two-component magnetic brush development

The rotatable non-magnetic sleeve is provided over the magnet roller and is rotated. Carrier forms a ma gnetic brush on the sleeve surfa ce by magnetic force to attach toner onto the electrostatic image on the photoconductor drum.

(3) Developing bias

When the photoconductor is charged and exposed to light (exposure ), th e surfac e poten tia l (volt ag e) of the p ho tocon duct or w ill no t be lost completely. (The residual potential remains.) Toner is attracted to the photoconductor by this residual potential, dirty ing the phot oconductor. As a r esult, a dirt y copy of whi te background is generated. To prevent against this, a voltage of the same polarity and higher than the residual potential is applied to the MG roller, preventing toner from being attached to the photoconduct o r surf a ce .

1. General description

• The optical section of this model is composed of the fixed focus

lens and six mirrors. Since the fixed focus lens is used, No. 4/5 mirror base is shifted according to the shift of the lens to change the distance between the original and the drum (OID, Original Image Distance) in reduction or enlargement copy. The lens and No. 4/5 mirror unit are shifted by driving the stepping motor with the signals from the main control PWB, allowing zooming of 151 steps in 1% increment in the range of 0.50 to 2.00.

5 6 910

• Exposure is adjusted by changing the copy lamp voltage. The AE

sensor is provided in the zoom base to sense the density of the original. The copy lamp light is reflected by the original to the AE sensor, which senses the density of the original and adjust the copy lamp light quantity according to the density.

• The exposure system is the slit exposure system by moving light

This model basic process and structure

• The Scorotron method is used to evenly charge the photoconduc-

tor surface to the given potential in the charge process. The corona wire regularly used is now replaced with a new corona charge mechanism that employs the 0.1mm thick stainless steel saw teeth plate, in order to suppress ozone generated when the oxide molecule in air is ionized.

• Considering the service efficiency, the process separation

mechanism is adopted.

• To prevent high voltage leakage by the loose corona charge unit, a

one-touch stopper mechanism is adopted.

(3) Details of image forming process

Step 1 (Main Char gi ng)

By negative discharging of the main charger, uniform negative charges are applied to the OPC drum surface. The OPC drum surface potential is controlled by the screen grid voltage to maintain the grid voltage at a constant level.

• When the drum surface potential is lower than the grid voltage,

electric charges generated by discharging of the charger go through the screen grid to charge the drum surface potential until it becomes equal to the grid voltage.

• When the drum surface potential virtually reaches the grid potential

level, electric charges generated by discharging of the charger flows through the electrode of the screen grid to the high voltage unit grid voltage output circuit, thus always maintaining the drum surface potential at a level virtually equal to the grid voltage.

• The main corona unit employs the scorotron system to charge the

photoconductor surface to a certain level uniformly. In addition, the conventional corona wire is replaced with the corona charging mechanism by saw-teeth plate (stainless steel plate of 0.1 mm thick). In corona discharge, oxygen molecules in the air are ionized to generate ozone (O3). The mechanism restrict the generation of ozone.

Step 2 (Exposure)

Light from the copy lamp is radiated on the document, and the optical image of the document is reflected by the mirrors and projected through the lens to the OP C drum. The ligh ter p orti on of th e docu men t refl ec ts more light ( high int ensit y) to the OPC drum , an d the d ark er por tion o f the docu ment ref lect les s light (l ow intensity) t o the OPC drum. Po si t iv e or negative ch ar g es ar e generated in the CGL of the OPC drum where lights are radiated. Negative charges generated in the CGL move tow ards the positive charges in the aluminum layer generated in step 3. While the positive charges in the CGL move towards the negative charges on the CPU drum surface generated in step 3. Therefore, positive charges and negati ve ch arg es a re n eutr aliz ed in the alum inum laye r an d th e OPC drum surface at the light radiating position, decreasing the OPC drum surface potential. The CGL electric charge generating amount increase s in proport ion to the d ocument density, that is, refl ected ligh t intens ity (the OPC drum surfac e intensity). Ther efore, electric ch arges are gener ated les s in th e CGL layer cor respon ding to the lig hter density of document (higher intensity of the OPC drum surface), and a greater quantity of the negative charges on the OPC drum surface is neutraliz ed, decreasing th e O PC drum surface potential more .

On the contrary, electric charges are generated more in the CGL layer corresponding to the darker density of document (lower intensity of the OPC drum surface), and less quantity of the negative charges on the CPU drum surface is neutralized, decreasing the OPC drum surface less. Therefore, the OPC drum surface potential corresponding to the lighter portion of the document is lower, and that corresponding to the darker portion of the document is higher. Latent static-electricity images are form ed in the ab ove manner.

Step 3 (Develop me nt )

Toner is attached to the la tent stat ic-electric ity images on the drum surface to change them to visible images. The two-component magnetic brush development system charges toner positively by friction with car riers , and toner is attac hed t o nega tive cha rges on the d rum surface. The potential in the darker document projecting area (low intens ity) is high (m uch negative c harges) and a ttracts more toner. The potential in the lighter document projecting portion (high intensity) is low (less negative charges), and attracts less toner.

Step 4 (Transfer)

The transfer paper is charged higher than the OPC drum surface potential by s tr on g negative discharge of the transfer char ge r, mak ing the binding force between the transfer paper and toner stronger than that between the drum and toner, attracting toner to the transfer paper.

Step 5 (Separati on)

After transfer, the copy paper and the drum are negatively charged. Since, however, the negative potential of the copy paper is higher than tha t of the drum, a attract ion for ce is appl ied betw een the dr um and the copy paper. To avoid this, AC corona is applied to the copy paper by the separation charger to decrease the copy paper potential to the same level as the drum surface potential. The attraction between t he copy pape r and the drum is weakened by this, a llowing separation of the copy paper by its own extending force. If the copy paper is not separated by the separation charger, it is separated by the separation pawl mechanically.

(6) Process control function

[Summary]

The process control function detects the density of the standard toner image formed on the photoconductor, the density of the initial image and controls the charging grid voltage so that the same level as the initial imag e den si t y is pro vid ed . That is, the process conditions are established and the high voltage output and exposure level are controlled to stabilize the toner density. In this model, the density sensing level is automatically set.

Process control

1 Toner patch images are formed on the photoconductor surface

under the three process conditions (MC grid bias voltage). At the first process control, a toner parch image is formed with the reference grid voltage –410V as the center and ±30V. At the second or later process control, the MC grid bias voltage determined at the former process control is used as the center, and a toner patch is formed under the process condition of ±32V to the center value.

2 Measure the three toner patch images formed in the above and

The grid voltage value where the same density level as the reference level is obtained is displayed by Sim. 44-9 "a". This value is displayed with 50 as the center in the range of 0 ~ 99 in integer numbers. The correction for 50 is 0V (–410V), and the correction for 58 is +30V (–442V).

4 When the MC grid bias voltage is corrected by the process con-

trol, the corresponding light quantity is calculated to control the copy lamp. To correct the MC grid voltage, the delta value of the sensitivity level when the initially recorded reference grid voltage is –440V and the MC grid voltage where the same density is obtained in process control is fed back to the MC grid voltage of each mode.

Process control timing

In the SF-2035, the process control is performed in the following timing:

1 When the main switch is turned on and the first copy is made: 2 At every specified copy quantity (First copy after 1,000 copies)

Judged by the total counter. The correction is reset by Simulation 25-2.

3 After the specified time after turning on the main switch. (First

copy after 44, 60, 120, 180 min)

Drum marking

In this mo del, a toner patch im age is for med in the sa me posit ion on the photoconductor drum surface to improve the accuracy of the process control. A marking is provided on the drum and the marking is sensed before forming a toner patch image. If the marking level is not sensed, the devel oping lamp blinks and the t rouble code (F2-32) is displayed.

B. STD PA: Reference level when detecting the toner patch image

In the SF-2214/2118, the absolute value of the output of the density sensor is not directly used for control calculation, but the ratio of the sensor output value (BA) on the drum surface and the sensor output (PA) of the toner patch image is used for control calculation.

* The grid bias value is obtained so that the ratio of the drum

surface level and the sensor level when forming patch level and the sensor lev el when forming p atch images is 200:40.

Though , therefor e t h e light quan ti t y of the reflection type se ns or is varied by dirt or deterioration, the ratio (PA/PB) will not be affected by change in light quantity to provide stable control.

The waste toner is passed through waste toner transp ort scre w 1 and wast e toner pipe 2 to waste toner bottle 3. Waste toner bottle 3 is rotated by the main drive gear via gear 4 to transport toner evenly. When the waste toner bottle is full of waste toner, the rotatio n torque of gear 4 is increased to escape gear 5 in the arrow direction A, and switch 6 is turned on at the same time to light the waste toner replacement lamp.

(5) TRANSPORT/FUSING SECTION

1) General

The SF-2116/2118 allows transport of paper of max. A3 (11" x 17") and min. A5 (8 1/2" x 5 1/2"). After images are transferred on the paper, the paper is separated from the drum by the separation pawl and transported to the fuser section by rotat ions of the resist roller and the tran sport belt. The dru m separation pawl is provid ed under the p rocess unit. It is made by turning on (separating) the solenoid inside the main drive unit.

5 Drive system division

The fuser unit is rotated by the main drive unit. In case of manual rotation of the fuser unit to remove paper jam, however, excessive loads may be applied to the gears. To prevent against this, the pressure of the upper/lower heat rollers is reduced when the machine clamshells are opened. In addition, the fusing gear is so constructed that the drive is not transferred to the drive system.

(7) High voltage section

1) General

There are three kinds of coronas; the main corona, the transfer corona, and the separation corona. The main corona employs the scorotron system, where the drum surface is evenly charged with negative charges controlled by the screen grid between the corona and the drum. The transfer corona is used to transfer toner images on the drum to th e cop y pape r. A high, negat ive voltag e is app lie d to the rear side of the paper. The separation corona applies AC corona to the copy paper to eliminate potential difference with the drum to allow separation of th e paper. The o utput vol tage of t he main ch arger and the transfe r charger is supplied by transformer 1. The feedback current from the transfer charger is controlled to be constant and outputted to the main charger.

E. Horizontal copy magnification ratio adjustment

a. This adjustment is performed to meet the displayed magnifica-

tion ratio with the actual one.

b. This adjustment must be performed in the following cases:

• When the main PWB is replaced.

• When the EEPROM in the main PWB is replaced.

• When the mirror motor is replaced.

• When self diag. U2 occurs.

The scanning speed of the mirror base is changed to adjust the horizontal (paper transport direction) copy magnification ratio.

(1) Put a scale on the original table as shown in the figure below,

and execute simulation 48-02. The machine starts warming up and the ready lamp lights up. At the same time, the previously set valu e ( 1 ∼ 99) is displayed. Under this state, make a nor- mal copy and calculate the copy magnification ratio.

(2) Replace the displayed value with the copy magnification ratio

correction rate obtained in (1). (Input value) = (Previously set value) / (Copy magnification ratio correction rate [%]) ×10

(Example) When the previously set value is 25, the input

values of examples 1 and 2 are as follows:

• Example 1: 35 = 25 + (1 × 10)

• Example 2: 15 = 25 + (–1 × 10)

Enter the input value and press the print switch. The value is stored and the ready lamp lights up.

Full-size(100%) copy

[Adjustment procedure]

(1) Put a scale on the original table. (2) C → P → 0/◊ → P → 5 →

0/◊ → PSW → 2 → PSW With the above key operation, simulation50-02 is performed

and the machine starts warming up.

(3) The lower two digits of L1 value is displayed on the copy

quantity display. The top digit is for data identification.

• L1 : Lead edge shift at 200% (|||mm, 3 digits)

• L2 : Lead edge shift at 100% (✕✕✕mm, 3 digits)

Example of display

• For 42.5mm, the display is 2 5 .

(4) Use the % key and the 10 digit key pad to set A and b values

to zero. Make copies at 100% and 200%.

• 0/◊ → 0/◊ → 0/◊ → % key → 0/◊

→ 0/◊ → 0/◊ → PSW (A copy at 100% is made.)

• Enlargement key → (Lens shift, ready) → PSW (A copy

at 200% is made.)

(5) Measure the distance between the copy paper lead edge and

the copy image lead edge in each copy. Enter L1 and L2 values with the zoom key and the 10 digit key pad. With this operation, RRC-A and RRC-B values in simulation 50-01 are automatically calculated and stored. Input procedure

(Example) When L1 = 24.5 mm and L2 = 15.0mm: Check that the lowest digit of the magnification ratio display is "A," and perform the following key operation.

2 → 4 → 5 ("45" is displayed on the copy quantity display.) → % key → 1 → 5 → 0 ("50" is displayed.) → PSW

(6) After this, check shift and image loss, and void amount in each

copy similarly to simulation 50-01.
