Precautions

1.3 ESD precautions

Certain semiconductor devices can be easily damaged by static electricity. Such components are commonly called “Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices” or ESDs. Examples of typical ESDs are: integrated circuits,some field effect transistors, and semiconductor “chip” components.

The techniques outlined below should be followed to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.

Caution >>Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.

1.Immediately before handling a semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, employ a commercially available wrist strap device, which should be removed for your personal safety reasons prior to applying power to the unit under test.

2.After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ESDs, place the assembly on a conductive surface, such as aluminum or copper foil, or conductive foam, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup in the vicinity of the assembly.

3.Use only a grounded tip soldering iron to solder or desolder ESDs.

4.Use only an “anti-static” solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified as “anti-static” can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ESDs.

5.Do not use Freon-propelled chemicals. When sprayed, these can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ESDs.

6.Do not remove a replacement ESD from its protective packaging until immediately before installing it.

Most replacement ESDs are packaged with all leads shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil, or a comparable conductive material.

7.Immediately before removing the protective shorting material from the leads of a replacement ESD, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.

8.Maintain continuous electrical contact between the ESD and the assembly into which it will be installed, until completely plugged or soldered into the circuit.

9.Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ESDs. Normal motions, such as the brushing together of clothing fabric and lifting one’s foot from a carpeted floor, can generate static electricity sufficient to damage an ESD.

2.2.5 Engine F/W Contol Algorithm

2.2.5.1 Feeding

If feeding from a cassette, drive of the pickup roller is controlled by a solenoid. The on/off of the solenoid is controlled by controlling the general output port or the external output port. Provided below are the units jam conditions:

—After picking up, paper is not fed.

—After picking up, paper entered but it cannot reach to the feed sensor in a predetermined

time due to slippage, etc.

JAM 0 — After picking up, if the feed sensor is not on, re-pick up. After re-picking up, if the feed sensor is still not on after a predetermined time, JAM 0 is displayed.

*It is a status that the leading edge of the paper doesn’t pass the feed sensor.

—Even though the paper reaches to the feed sensor, the feed sensor doesn’t be ON.

*It is a status that the leading edge of the paper already passes the feed sensor.

2.2.5.2 Transfer

The charging, developing and the transfer voltages. are controlled by PWM (Pulse Width Modulation). Each output voltage is changeable due to the PWM duty. The transfer voltage admitted when the paper passes the transfer roller is decided by environment conditions. The resistance value of the transfer roller is changed due to the surrounding environment ; the voltage values change to compensate for the environmental conditions. It is managed through an AD converter. The voltage value for the transfer roller is decided by the changed value.

Product spec and feature

2.2.5.3 Fusing

The temperature change of the heat roller’s surface is changed to the resistance value through the thermistor. The Heat Roller temperate (warmup) is measured by converting the resistance of the thermistor to a measurable DC voltage value. The AD converter changes it to a digital value so it knows when it has reach its proper fusing temperature. The AC power to the fuser lamp is controller by comparing the target temperature to the value from the thermistor. If the value from the thermistor is out of controlling range an error will occur and power disabled. Each Heading below lists the types of Fuser Errors that can occur:

• Open Heat Error

During warmup, if the Fuser Unit does not reach its proper operating temperature within a predetermined time an “Open Heat Error will occur. An error message will be displayed on the Control Panel alerting the customer. The engine stops all functions and keeps it at the error state until the issue is resoled by a qualified technician.

• Low Heat Error

After initial warmup had been achieved, if the Fuser Unit at any time does not reach its proper operating temperature within a predetermined time an “Low Heat Error will occur. An error message will be displayed on the Control Panel alerting the customer. The engine stops all functions and keeps it at the error state until the issue is resoled by a qualified technician.

• Over Heat Error

If the Fuser Unit at any time exceeds the specified range [too hot] for proper operating temperature an “Over Heat Error will occur. An error message will be displayed on the Control Panel alerting the customer. The engine stops all functions and keeps it at the error state until the issue is resoled by a qualified technician.

2.2.5.4 LSU

LSU receives the image data from PVC or HPVC and makes the latent image on OPC surface. It uses the single beam, LD.

The errors related to LSU are as follows:

•By LReady : When the printing is started, the engine drives the polygon motor of LSU. After the specified time is elapsed, if the motor is not in a ready status, the engine detects the error that the polygon motor is not in a ready status. If this error happens, the engine stops all functions and keeps it at the error state. Also, the engine informs the error status of the main system and the error message is displayed at LCD window to inform the error status to the customer.

•By Hsync : When the polygon motor is ready, the LSU sends out the signal called Hsync and it is used to synchronize with each image line. So, if the engine does not detect consecutively the signal for a fixed time, it defines the Hsync Error. If this error happens, the engine stops all functions and keeps it at the error state. Also, the engine informs the error status of the main system and then the error message is displayed at LCD window to inform the error status to the customer.

LSU Error Recovery: If the LReady or Hsync error happens, the paper is exited with no image on it. The engine mode is changed to recovery mode and the engine informs the main system of the engine mode. And the engine checks the LSU error. If the error doesn’t happen, the printing job will be proceeding.
