1. Paper feed secti on
The paper feed system is in two ways: the tray feed and the manual feed. The cassette is of the universal type and has the capacity of 250 sheets. It is attached and detached at the front cabinet, that is, the front loading system. The manual paper feed is single for the SF-2314 and multi for the SF-2414/2514. (The multi paper feed unit (SF-MF14) is an option for the SF-2314 only.) In addition to the standard cassette (250 sheets), the optional cas­sette module (SF-CM14, 250 sheets) can be added.
(Tray paper feed operation) The cassette paper feed clutch (CPFC) turns on, the paper feed roller shaft, the paper feed roller, and the takeup roller rotate. At the same time, the roller release arm is lowered by the limiter spring. As a result, the takeup roller falls by its own weight to reach the paper surface, performing the paper feed operation.
(Manual paper feed operation) Multi When the solenoid B (MPFS) turns on, the takeup roller falls and the gate rises. Almost simultaneously the solenoid A (MPFC) turns on and the takeup roller and the paper feed roller turns to perform the paper feed operation.
ON
When the PPD turns on, the MPFS turns off and the RRC turns on. Almost simultaneously the MPFC turns off to return the roller and the gate to the initial state.

2. Separation, transport section
4. Developer section
After passing the resist roller section, the paper is transported to the transfer section. After transfer, the paper is separated from the drum by the separation electrode and the drum separation pawl, then transported to the fuser section by the transport belt.
3. Fuser, paper exit section
The toner image transferred on the paper is fused by the heat and pressure of the upper and the lower heat rollers. After fusing, dis­charge static electricity on the paper with the discharge brush. Then the paper is discharged to the copy tray.
4-1. General descriptions
(1) Two-component developer
The developer is composed of toner and carrier. Carrier serves as a medium for attaching toner onto the electrostatic image on the photoconductor drum. By stirring toner and carrier, they are rubbed to be charged positive (+) and negative (–) respectively. Since developer will deteriorate to degrade copy quality, it should 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 magnetic brush on the sleeve surface 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), the surface potential (voltage) of the photoconductor will not be lost completely. (The residual potential remains.) Toner is attracted to the photoconductor by this residual potential, dirtying the photoconductor. As a result, a dirty copy of white 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 photoconductor surface.

5. Optical system
5-1. General descriptions
The optical system is composed of the fixed focus lens and six
mirrors. Since the fixed focus lens is employed, No.4/No. 5 mirror base is moved as well as the lens to change the distance between the document and the drum (OID, Original Image Distance) for reduc­tion and enlargement. To move the lens and No.4/No. 5 mirror unit, he stepping motor is driven by the signal from the main control PWB to allow zooming of 0.70 to 1.22 (inch series: 0.64 1.29) with 1% increment. (The SF-2314 has no zooming function, and its lens and No.4/No.5 mirror base are fixed.)

Exposure is adjusted by changing the voltage of the copy lamp.
The copy lamp unit is provided with the AE sensor for detection of the original density to adjust the light quantity of the copy lamp according to the original density.
For exposure, the slit exposure system is employed where the light
source is moved. (The original table is fixed.)

(7) Lens drive shaft
This shaft is to control the optical axis of the lens in zoom copying. The lens follows on the slide base shaft.
(8) Lens drive wire
The wire is used to drive the lens base and the 4/5 mirror base.
(9) No. 4/5 mirror base
The No. 4/5 mirror is installed to this base. It is moved in zoom copying in order to fit the distance between the original and the photoconductor.
(10) Mirror motor
The mirror motor is a stepping motor, and used to move the copy lamp unit and the No. 2/3 mirror base in order to obtain the rpm corresponding to each magnification ratio.
(11) Mirror home position sensor (MHPS)
Used to sense the home position of the copy lamp unit. This sensor is a photo transmission type sensor.
(12) No. 2/3 mirror base
The No. 2/3 mirrors are attached to this base. The mirror base is scanned by the mirror motor.
(13) Copy lamp unit
This is composed of No. 1 mirror, the thermal fuse, the copy lamp, the exposure adjustment plate, and the reflector, and is scanned by the mirror motor.
5-2. Basic operati on s
(Relationship among the original, the lens and the image in each magnification ratio)
Normal copy: The distance between the surface of original on the
table glass and the lens is made equal to the distance between the lens and the exposure surface of the photoconductor to make the original and the image equal to each other.
Enlargement copy: The lens is nearer to the original when compared
with the normal copy to shorten the distance be­tween the original surface and the lens. The No. 4/5 mirror base is positioned further away from the lens to increase the distance be­tween the lens and the exposure surface of the photoconductor. The distance between the original and the ex­posure surface of the photoconductor is greater than that in the normal copy.
(14) Thermal fuse
The thermal fuse is closely attached to the reflector in order to prevent against abnormal temperature rise in the optical system. In case of abnormal temperature rise, the power for the copy lamp is turned off.
100V system 200V system
(117˚C) (117˚C)
(15) Reflector
Light from the copy lamp is reflected onto the original.
(16) Exposure adjustment plates
Three exposure adjustment plates are attached to the copy lamp unit to adjust the exposure balance in the front and the rear frame direc­tion.
(17) Mirror base drive wire
This wire is used to transmit the drive power of the mirror motor to the copy lamp unit and the No. 2/3 mirror base to scan the mirror base.
(18) Lens drive motor
This is a stepping motor, which is used to move the lens and the No. 4/5 mirror base.
(19) AE sensor
The original density is detected with the intensity of the copy lamp light reflected from the original. The measurement area is the mirror base scan area of about 100mm at the center. The element is a photo diode.
Reduction copy: When compared with the normal copy, the lens
comes closer to the photoconductor to increase the distance between the original and the lens. The distance between the lens and the exposure sur­face of the photoconductor is decreased. The No. 4/5 mirror base is positioned further away from the lens. The distance between the original and the exposure surface of the photoconductor is longer than that in the normal copy.

(Optical system dirt correction)
The SF-2314/2414 perform dirt correction by changing the copy lamp intensity according to the dirt degree in the optical system (the copy lamp unit, No. 1 mirror, No.2 mirror, No.3 mirror) to prevent against remarkable degrading of copy quality. The reference value is the AE sensor output value which is obtained when the reference plate is exposed with the copy lamp voltage of
67.7V (135.4V) at power ON.
This value is checked with sim 44-02.
