General Precautions for Installation/Servicing/Maintenance for the Finisher MJ-1027/1028
The installation and service should be done by a qualified service technician.
1. When installing the Finisher MJ-1027/1028 to the equipment, be sure to follow the
instructions described in the “Unpacking/Set-Up Procedure for the MJ-1027/1028”
booklet which comes with each unit of the MJ-1027/1028.
2. The MJ-1027/1028 should be installed by an authorized/qualified person.
3. Before starting installation, servicing or maintenance work, be sure to turn off and
unplug the equipment first.
4. When serivcing the machines with the power turned ON, be sure not touch live sections and rotating/operating sections.
5. When selecting the installation site, avoid placing the MJ-1027/1028 and copier on
different levels or inclined floors.
6. When servicing or maintaining the MJ-1027/1028, be careful about the rotating or
operation sections such as gears, pulleys, sprockets, cams, belts, etc.
7. When parts are disassembled, reassembly is basically the reverse of disassembly
unless otherwise noted in this manual or other related materials. Be careful not to
reassemble small parts such as screws, washers, pins, E-rings, toothed washers to
the wrong places.
8. Basically, the machine should not be operated with any parts removed or disassembled.
9. Delicate parts for preventing safety hazard problems (such as breakers, thermofuses,
fuses, door switches, sensors, etc. if any) should be handled/installed/adjusted correctly.
10. Use suitable measuring instruments and tools.
11. During servicing or maintenance work, be sure to check the serial No. plate and other
cautionary labels (if any) to see if they are clean and firmly fixed. If not, take appropriate actions.
12. The PC board must be stored in an anti-electrostatic bag and handled carefully using
a wristband, because the ICs on it may be damaged due to static electricity. Before
using the wrist band, pull out the power cord plug of the copier and make sure that
there is no uninsulated charged objects in the vicinity.
13. For the recovery and disposal of used MJ-1027/1028s, consumable parts, packing
materials, used batteries, and RAM-ICs including litium batteries, follow the relevant
local regulations/rules.
14. After completing installation, servicing and maintenance of the MJ-1027/1028, return
the MJ-1027/1028 to its original state, and check operation.
15. When you move the finisher, do not move it in the direction of the arrow as shown in
the figure below otherwise it might fall down.

This Service Manual contains basic data and figures for the Finisher (MJ-1027)/Saddle
Stitch Finisher (MJ-1028) needed to service the machine in the field.
This manual comprises the following chapters:
Chapter 1 “General Description” introduces the finisher’s features, specifications, and
names of parts, and shows how to operate the finisher.
Chapter 2 “Finisher Unit Basic Operation” discusses the principles of operation used for
the finisher mechanical and electrical systems. It also explains the timing at
which these systems are operated.
Chapter 3 “Saddle Stitch Finisher Unit Basic Operation” discusses the principles of op-
eration used for the saddle stitcher unit’s mechanical and electrical systems.
It also explains the timing at which these systems are operated.
Chapter 4 “Mechanical System” discusses how the finisher is constructed mechanically,
and shows how it may be disassembled/assembled and adjusted.
Chapter 5 “Maintenance and Inspection” provides tables of periodically replaced parts
and consumables and durables, together with a scheduled servicing chart.
Chapter 6 “Troubleshooting” shows how to troubleshoot possible faults and gives electri-
cal parts arrangement diagrams, LED/check pin diagrams by PCB, and self
diagnosis tables.
“Appendix” contains diagrams showing tables of signals, overall circuit diagrams and tables of solvents/oils.
Descriptions regarding installation are not mentioned in this Service Manual as the
Finisher (MJ-1027)/Saddle Stitich Finisher (MJ-1028)’s packing boxes contain Installation
Procedures.
The descriptions in this Service Manual are subject to change without notice for product improvement or other purposes, and major changes will be communicated in the form
of Service Information bulletins.
All service persons are expected to have a good understanding of the contents of this
Service Manual and all relevant Service Information bulletins, and be able to identify and
isolate faults in the machine.

CHAPTER 1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
I. FEATURES
1. Accommodates large quantities of sheets
●
Normally, the finisher holds a stack of sheets 250 mm in height in its two bins (small-size
paper: equivalent to 2000 sheets)/140 mm in height (large-size paper: equivalent to 1000
sheets)
2. Has high paper transportation performance
●
The finisher is capable of handling papers between 60 and 256 gm/m2.
3. Offers a job offset function
●
The finisher has a job offset function for sorting non-stapled stacks of copies.
4. Offers four types of auto stapling
●
The finisher offers a choice of four stapling modes (1-point stapling at rear, diagonal stapling at front, diagonal stapling at rear, 2-point stapling).
5. Uses a buffer roller
●
The use of a buffer roller enables the finisher to accept copies without interruption from the
host machine even during stapling or offset operation.
6. Has a saddle stitch function (Saddle Stitch Finisher MJ-1028)
●
The finisher can staple along the center of paper and fold it in two (up to 15 sheets).
7. Offers a punch function (option)
●
The use of the puncher unit enables the finisher to punch sheets for binders before they are
output. (The puncher unit is capable of handling papers between 60 g/m2 (16 lb. Bond) and
256 g/m2 (141.4 lb. Index). It cannot handle special paper, postcards and transparencies.)
8. Insert function (option)
●
Enable the use of special type of paper and printed paper in addition to the staple sorting or
the hole punching mode (Available when the optional staple sorting and the hole punching
mode units are installed.) This paper is not run through fuser (heat).

E. Supplying the Saddle
Stitcher Unit with Staples
(Saddle Stitch Finisher)
If the host machine indicates the saddle
stitcher unit staple supply message, perform the
following to supply it with staples.
1) Open the front lower cover.
Figure 1-330
2) Slide out the stitcher unit.
Figure 1-331
3) Pull the stitcher unit to the front once, and
then shift it up.
Figure 1-332
4) Hold the empty cartridge on its sides, and
remove it.
Figure 1-333
5) Set a new cartridge.
Figure 1-334
Reference
You must always replace both cartridges at
the same time.

1. This chapter discusses the purpose and role of each of the finisher’s functions, and the principles of operation used for the finisher mechanical and electrical systems. It also explains the
timing at which these systems are operated.The symbol in drawings indicates transmission
of mechanical drive, and signals marked by together with the signal name indicates the
flow of electrical signals.
2. In descriptions of digital circuits on the finisher, “1” indicates a high signal voltage level, while
“0” indicates a low signal voltage level. Voltage values differ according to circuit.
A microprocessor is used on the finisher. A description of microprocessor operation is omitted
in this chapter as it is practically impossible to check internal operation of the microprocessor.
Descriptions in this chapter also assume that PCBs will not be repaired at user sites. For this
reason, descriptions of circuits on PCBs is limited to block diagrams. Two types of block diagrams are provided for separate functions: diagrams indicating details from sensors up to input
sections of major PCBs, and diagrams indicating details from the output sections of major
PCBs up the loads.

CHAPTER 2 FINISHER UNIT BASIC OPERATION
I. BASIC OPERATION
A. Outline
The finisher is designed to deliver copies arriving from its host machine, and its modes of
delivery include simple stacking, job offset
(Note)
, and staple.
All operations involved in these modes are controlled by the finisher controller PCB, according
to the appropriate commands from the host machine.
In the case of the Saddle Stitch Finisher, copies from the host machine may be routed to the
saddle stitcher unit.

Note:
The term job offset refers to shifting each sorting job, separating a single
stack into several stacks.
