The set value is received from the digital copier, and data are m ade
according to the set value.
*Left margin
Since the paper size sensor is not set, the digital copier cannot recognize the size and direction of paper which is actually inserted.
Therefore, the left margin is set according to the paper size specified
in the print data sent from the computer, and print process is performed.
If the computer does not specify the paper size, or in the case of the
custom size, the left margin is set according to the default paper size.
(7) Print reference
This machine employs the center reference system.
Since the digital copier is not provided with the tray size detection feature, formatting and center distribution are performed not by the actual
paper size but by the paper size specified by the computer.

[4] ELECTRICAL SECTION
The OA982 board mounted on the IMC2 board inputs and outputs image data to and from the MCU board, controls SDRAM memory, and communicates with USB2.0 devices.
SDRAM memory is used to store programs and image data as well as for a working area.
USB 2.0 devices communicate with a PC through a USB2.0 cable at a rate of 480 Mbps.
SDRAM memory can be expanded by using 1BANK SDRAM DIMM (AR-SM5).
Communications between the OA982 and the AR-SM5 is held using an ASIC-controlled BUFFER IC (74VCX16244/16245).
