Wiring bundle band(bar lock ties)

Electrical system work

> After replacing electrical wires, fasten them with bands (bar lock ties) so that they do not sag.> When installing parts, be careful to avoid pinching and damaging the electrical wires.> If a fuse blows, always replace it with one of the specified capacity.> Using a larger fuse will not only damage the machine components, but may also cause fires.> Image scanner, thermal heads, and sensors are extremely vulnerable to shock, so do not handle them roughly or drop them.> Always turn OFF the machine power before working on the machine and when plugging or unplugging sensor connectors.

Self-tapping screws

Self-tapping screw Pan-head screw

Binding-head screw

< These are not self-tapping screws.>

< Caution is needed in mounting the self-tapping screws.>

Self-tapping screws are used in many places on the machine.

The self-tapping screws, if incorrectly handled, will damage the screw hole on the machine frame.

When mounting the self-tapping screws, first rotate the screw in the counter-clockwise direction to find the

thread on the screw hole. Then start rotating the screw in the clockwise direction to tighten. This is to

prevent the tapping screw from making new screw thread on the screw hole and damaging the original screw

thread on the screw hole

The paper feed to the second paper feed area is stopped by the Guide and Timing rollers to form a buckle. The paper then waits until the rotation of the Guide roller starts.

While the paper is being fed from the second paper feed area, the Pressure roller rises and printing starts.(The Pressure roller contacts the Drum and starts rotating.)

After the Pressure roller contacts the Drum to start printing, the Separator approaches the Drum and the Separation fan starts to blow.The Guide roller goes up to release the paper.(The paper is then transferred by the rotation of the Drum.)

The Timing roller contacts with the Guide roller to feed the next sheet of paper.

The printed paper is separated from the Drum by the Separator and with a help of the air blow from the Separation fan.It is then transported onto the Paper receiving tray by the Transfer belts using Suction fan.

The Drum is rotated and a sheet of paper is fed from the first paper feed area to the second paper feed area by Pickup rollers, and Stripper pad.

The Guide and Timing rollers in the second paper feed area are rotated and the paper is fed to the printing area.

3. Drum Positions

1) Sensors for the Drum positioning The position of the Drum is determined by the Position-A sensor and Encoder sensor on the Main motor.

2) Position-A * This is the position where the Clamp plate is at the top of the Drum.

* This position is also referred as the 0 .

* The Clamp plate opens and closes at this position.

* This is the position where the light path of the Position-A sensor is cut by the Position-A

plate on the Drum.

4. Print Drum Locking Mechanism

1) The Print drum is designed to unlock only when it is at Position-B.2) At any other Drum positions, the flange around the Drum main gear prevents the Intermediate gear from disengaging from the Drum main gear.3) Only when the Print drum is at Position-B, the flange on the Drum main gear does not interfere against the Intermediate gear, allowing the Print drum to be pulled out from the machine.4) When the Print drum is pulled out of the machine, the lock mechanism locks the Print drum at Position-B so that the Print drum does not rotate while it is pulled out of the machine.

2. First Paper Feed Drive Mechanism

Paper Feed Clutch > The drive from the Main motor is transferred to the Pickup roller shaft by the gears. > The Paper feed clutch activates at a given Print drum angle from drum position-A to rotate the Pickup roller shaft to feed the papers. This Drum angle is determined by the count signal from the motor encoder sensor.> The Paper feed clutch is deactivated as the Print drum rotates for a certain set degrees from the Drum position-A.> The Paper feed clutch activation and deactivation timings change according to the printing speed.

End of First Paper Feed > The First paper feed ends when the Paper feed clutch deactivates.> The leading edge of the paper rests against the Guide roller and Timing roller and makes a buckle.> The Pickup roller rotates freely in the direction of paper feed by the one-way bearing on the roller to avoid applying brake on the paper when the Second paper feed takes over the paper feed.

Paper Feed Pressure Adjust Lever

> The Paper feed pressure adjust lever is located on the front side of the machine, and it changes the pressure of the Paper feed tray applied against the Pickup roller, as a result the pressure against the papers on the Paper feed tray is changed.> When the Paper feed pressure adjust lever is positioned at upper position, the Pressure spring is loose and applies less pull on the paper feed tray. This is the setting for thin papers.> As the Paper feed pressure lever is shifted down, the Pressure spring stretches and pulls the Paper feed tray stronger against the Pickup roller. The lever, at all the way down position is for thick papers.> The Paper feed pressure adjust lever at in-between-positions are for normal thickness papers.

3. Adjustment

1. Paper Feed Clutch ON/OFF Timing

Use the Paper feed clutch ON and/or OFF timing adjustment test mode to control the paper buckle amount.The paper buckle is made on the tip of the paper when the first paper feed action ends.The tip of the paper rests against the Timing roller and Guide roller and makes the buckle.If not enough buckle is made, the second paper feed will not take the paper, and cause paper jam.If too much buckle is made, the tip of the paper will fold and cause paper jam.

Paper feed clutch ON timing:For the 60 r.p.m. printing, use test mode No.741.For the 90 r.p.m. printing, use test mode No.744.The larger parameter numbers for these two test modes make the clutch ON timing earlier, and increase the paper buckle amount.

Paper feed clutch OFF timing:For the 60 r.p.m. printing, use test mode No.742.For the 90 r.p.m. printing, use test mode No.745.The smaller parameter numbers for thee two test modes make the clutch OFF timing delayed, and increases the paper buckle amount.

NOTE:The paper buckle amount is also affected by the Timing clutch ON timing adjustment (next Chapter).The Timing clutch ON timing adjustment will affect the image position on the paper, so do not use that adjustment for the paper buckle amount adjustment.But keep in mind that if the Timing clutch ON timing adjustment is made to control the image position, the Paper feed clutch ON/OFF timing adjustment may have to be adjusted for proper paper buckle amount.

2. Vertical Printing Position

1. Timing Clutch > The print position is depending on when the Timing clutch goes on.> Normally the Timing clutch goes ON when the drum angle becomes 160.3 degrees and goes OFF when the drum angle becomes 61.3 degrees in case the drum speed is 60 r.p.m.> When the drum rotation speed is 90 r.p.m., the Timing clutch goes ON at the drum angle 157.7 degrees and goes OFF at the drum angle 58.7 degrees.

2.Print Position> Print position can be changed by pressing the print position adjustment key or on the control panel.> When the key is pressed, the Timing clutch ON timing becomes earlier and the print position moves down.> When the key is pressed, the Timing clutch ON timing becomes late and the print position moves up.

3. Adjustment 1. Print Position (Timing Clutch ON timing)

Vertical print position can be adjusted by changing the Timing clutch activate timing.The Timing clutch activate timing can be changed by using TEST MODE No.789 or No.791.Test No.789 is for when the machine runs at 60 r.p.m. and Test No.791 is for when the machine runs at 90 r.p.m..Adjustment Procedure1. Turn OFF the machine power.2. Go into Test Mode by turning the machine power ON by pressing and key on the control panel.3. With B4 size paper on teh paper feed tray, enter Test Mode No.80 to make a master with checker- flag image.4. Press [Reset] key to escape from the Test Mode. Make about 5 prints at speed No.1 (60 r.p.m) and another 5 prints at speed No.2 (90 r.p.m.).5. For the both set of prints, measure the distance from the top of the paper to where the print image starts.6. The image should print 10mm from the top edge of the papers. If not, adjustments using Test Modes No.789 and/or No.791 is necessary.7. In the case the white margin is less than 10mm, smaller parameter number should be input for those test modes. Smaller parameter numbers make the Timing clutch ON timing faster and increase the white margin.8. In the case the white margin is more than 10mm, larger parameter number should be input for those test modes. Larger parameter numbers make the Timing clutch ON timing to delay and decrease the white margin.

Result of Incorrect Adjustment > Incorrect adjustment may cause blurry top image, stained pressure roller caused by image shifting down on the paper, or paper not separated from the Print drum (paper jam) caused by too small white margin on the top of the paper.

1. Theory of Operation1. Press Mechanism

1. Pressure Lever and Pressure Roller> The Pressure lever is mounted on the Pressure shaft. The Pressure roller is mounted on the Pressure assembly, which is fixed on the Pressure shaft.> While the Main motor is making the Print drum rotation without paper (not in printing process), the Pressure hook engages with the Pressure lever so that the Pressure roller stays down.> When paper comes in and pushes the Paper gate up, the Pressure hook rises. Then the Pressure lever is released and the Cam follower of the Pressure lever assembly touches against the Pressure cam. The Pressure roller is pushed up and hits against the Print drum to make the print.> The Pressure spring pulls the Pressure roller up against the Print drum.> Once the Pressure lever is released from the Pressure hook, movement of the Pressure lever is controlled by the Pressure cam. > The Pressure roller is lowered down by the Pressure cam where the Clamp plate on the Drum comes near the Pressure roller to prevent damaging the Clamp plate.> The Pressure hook comes down when the printing job is completed and paper is no longer fed from the Paper feed tray. The Pressure hook engages with the Pressure lever to keep the Pressure roller away from the Print drum.

Paper gate is pushed up by paper, and Pressure hook is raised. Then the Pressure lever is raised by the Pressure cam to press the Pressure roller against the Print drum to make the prints.

When the printing job ends and the paper is no longer fed, the Pressure hook comes down to hook against the Pressure lever.The Pressure ro l le r no longer goes up against the Print drum.

Lifting the Pressure Roller

The Paper gate is pushed up by paper throughout the printing. So the Pressure lever becomes free.The Pressure spring pulls back the Pressure lever and rotates the Pressure shaft which is acting as a pivot.The rotation of the Pressure shaft lifts the Pressure roller up against the Drum.

Lowering the Pressure Roller

The Pressure roller is lowered by force, away from the Drum[C], by the high part of the Pressure cam.During the Drum rotation, when the Clamp plate of the Drum comes close to the Pressure roller, the high part of the Pressure cam pushes the Pressure lever down, rotating the Pressure shaft counter-clockwise to bring the Pressure roller down, away from the Drum.Then Pressure lever is lowered by Pressure cam.

Pressure hook rotates up when the paper comes in.

Pressure hook rotates down when the paper no longer comes.

Place 2.0 mm or 2.5 mm Allen key (or 2.0 mm to 2.5 mm thick plate) between the Pressure cam and Cam follower and push up the Pressure lever assembly against the Pressure cam.11. While pushing the Pressure lever assembly tightly against the Pressure came with the Allen key or plate in between (refer to the above), tighten the two set screws on the Pressure lever assembly.12. Remove the 2.0 mm or 2.5 mm Allen key (or 2.0 mm to 2.5 mm thick plate), which was inserted between the Pressure cam and Cam follower.13. Confirm that the gap between the Pressure cam and Cam follower on the Pressure lever is between 2 mm to 2.5 mm. If not, repeat the above procedures until correct gap is obtained.

Results of Incorrect Adjustment

> If the gap is smaller than 2 mm, the Pressure roller leaves from the Drum too early. As a result, the tailing edge of the paper may not be printed clearly.> If the gap is too big, the Pressure roller may hit the Clamp plate of the Drum during printing and damage the Clamp plate.

2.0 mm to 2.5 mm gap

Adjust the gap between the Pressure cam and Cam follower to 2.0 mm to 2.5 mm by inserting 2.0 mm or 2.5 mm Allen wrench or plate between the Cam and Cam follower.

MECHANISM

1. Master on Drum (in printing) Check Mechanism

Master Sensor checks the presence of master on the Drum before the start of printing.The result (whether the master is found or not) is memorized until the Drum is pulled out of the machine or the power is turned off. While the machine knows that there is a master on the Drum, the master on the Drum check procedure is omitted.If no master is detected on the Drum, an error message is indicated on the panel display and stops the printing operation.

2. Ink Bottle Set Check Mechanism

The ink bottle is set in position when it is inserted into the Drum and rotated in clockwise direction.When the ink bottle is set in position, one part of the ink bottle pushes the Bottle set switch, and the ink bottle is recognized by the machine.

3. Drum Rotation Mechanism

The Drum is rotated by the Main motor with the gears transferring the drive. As the Drum rotates, the Squeegee roller, inside the Drum, starts it rotation.As the Squeegee roller rotates, the drive is transferred by a gear to the Driven shaft, which is located above the Squeegee roller.The Squeegee drive gear R contains a one-way bearing, which prevents the Squeegee roller from rotating when the Drum is rotated manually by hand in the opposite direction.

4. Ink Supply Mechanism

While the Drum is being rotated by the Main motor, if the amount of ink within the Drum reduces and the Ink sensor no longer touches the bead of ink, the Inking motor activates to pump the ink into the Drum. The ink pumped by the Inking pump travels through the hose and goes into the Center shaft of the Drum. The ink then drops onto the Squeegee roller from the distributor holes on the Center shaft.The Inking motor stops when the Ink sensor detects the bead of ink.The ink dropped onto the Squeegee roller is made into an ink bead between the Squeegee roller and Doctor roller. The ink is wrapped around the Driving shaft to be made into an even thickness ink bead. A small gap between the Squeegee roller and Doctor roller allows the ink to cover the inner surface of the Drum.An Overflow sensor is located within the Drum to detect excess amount of ink to prevent ink-overflow. If an overflow is detected, the machine is stopped with an error code display.
