CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION C. Basic Sequence of Operations 1. Basic Sequence of Operations at Power-On (1/2) The following sequence applies when the surface temperature of the fixing roller is 75°C at power-on and, in addition, the ambient temperature is 17°C or more.
CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION 2. Basic Sequence of Operations at Power-On (2/2) The following sequence applies when the surface temperature of the fixing roller is 75°C at power-on and, in addition, the ambient temperature is 17°C or more.
CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION Function Period WMUP (warm up) From when the power switch is turned ON until the surface temperature of the fixing assembly upper roller reaches 195°C. • Waits until the fixing assembly warms. INTR (initial rotation) From the end of WMUP until CNTGR1 starts after the surface temperature of the fixing assembly upper roller has reached 195°C. • Evens out the surface temperature of the fixing assembly roller. • Discharges copy paper, if any.
CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION 3.
CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION Period Function Remarks INTR (initial rotation) From when the Copy Start key is pressed until CNTR1 starts. Stabilizes the sensitivity of the drum in preparation for copying. • Moves the lens. If the lens does not reach a specific position within a specific period of time, INTR is continued until the lens reaches the position. CNTR1 (control rotation 1) For about 5 sec after the end of INTR. Controls the drum surface potential VD.
CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION 4. Basic Sequence of Operations for Page Separation In page separation mode, the original on the left side of the copyboard is copied (CSFW1) and then the original on the right side of the copyboard is copied (SCFW2). If the copy count is set to ‘2’ or higher, the original on the left is copied for as many copies as specified; then, the original on the right is copied as specified.
CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION Period SCFW1 (scanner forward 1; copying original on left) SCRV1 (scanner reverse 1) SCSW2 (scanner forward 2; copying original on the right) SCRV (scanner reverse 2) Function Remarks While the scanner is moving forward. • The distance over which the scanner moves forward varies according to the copy paper size and the reproduction ratio.
CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION D. Main Motor (M1) Control Circuit 1. Outline Figure 2-107 is a block diagram showing the main motor control circuit, which has the following functions: q Turning on and off the main motor. w Controlling the main motor to a specific speed. The main motor is a DC motor equipped with a built-in clock pulse generator. When the motor rotates, the clock pulse generator generates clock pulses (MMCLK) according to the revolution of the motor.
CHAPTER 2 BASIC OPERATION b. Controlling the Main Motor to a Specific Speed The copier’s main motor is controlled so that it rotates at a specific speed. The reference signal generator circuit on the motor control PCB generates reference pulses, which are sent to the phase comparator circuit and the frequency comparator circuit.

CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM I. BASIC OPERATIONS A. Varying the Reproduction Ratio The reproduction ratio in the axial direction of the drum is varied by the lens drive system, and the reproduction ratio in the drum peripheral direction is varied by the scanner drive system and the main drive system. The lens drive system uses a zoom lens; as shown in Figure 3-101, the position of the lens and the focal distance are changed to vary the reproduction ratio in the axial direction of the drum.
CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM II. LENS DRIVE MECHANISM A. Moving the Lens 1. Outline The copier picks up and feeds copy paper using center reference; originals, on the other hand, are placed using rear reference when the copyboard cover is used. As such, the lens is moved in Y direction (vertical) to suit the width of copy paper even in Direct mode.
CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM 2. Moving the Lens a. Moving the Lens in Y Direction (vertical) The copier’s lens is installed to a mobile lens stage which moves in Y direction (vertical) by the rotation of the lens Y motor (M5). b. Moving the Lens in X Direction (horizontal) The lens is moved in X direction (horizontal) by the rotation of the lens X motor (M4) installed to the back of the lens stage. 3. Controlling the Lens Motors Both lens X motor (M4) and lens Y motor (M5) are 4-phase stepping motors.
CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM 4. Moving the Lens a. At Power-On When the power switch is turned ON, the lens X motor (M4) rotates, thereby moving the lens in the direction of the lens X home position sensor (PS6). Then, the lens Y motor (M5) rotates to move the lens in the direction of the lens Y home position sensor (PS7).

CANON NP6045 REV. 1 MAR.
CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM III. SCANNER DRIVE MECHANISM A. Driving the Scanner 1. Outline The scanner is moved forward and in reverse by changing the direction in which the scanner motor (M3) rotates. The speed at which the scanner motor rotates when the scanner moves forward varies according to the selected reproduction ratio. The speed at which the scanner motor rotates when the scanner moves in reverse remains the same regardless of the selected reproduction ratio; it is 2.
CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM 2. Relationship between Scanner Sensor and Signals Scanner Scanner sensor Signal Description Forward Scanner home position sensor (PS1) Reverse SCHP • The scanner is at home position. • The scanner has reached home position. Original detection leading edge 1 sensor (PS3) • The registration clutch turns ON. • The scanner is checked against reference travel distance. SCDP1 • The brakes are applied to the scanner to slow down. Table 3-301 COPYRIGHT © 1997 CANON INC.
CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM 3. ,, Basic Sequence of Operations for Scanner Movement The distance over which the scanner moves forward is determined by the microprocessor in relation to the copy paper size and the reproduction ratio as well as copying mode. The microprocessor computes the dimensions of an original that can be copied to the selected copy paper size and reproduction ratio to determine the distance over which the scanner travels forward.
, , CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM 4.
CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM Reference: If two or more modes are selected, the scanner is controlled using the lowest value that has been obtained by reading the size of the original. The microprocessor exerts control with reference to the size of the original when the following modes are selected: Reference original size Mode • RDF in use Original size detected by the feeder • Original frame erasing mode Original size set by the user Table 3-302 3-10 COPYRIGHT © 1997 CANON INC. CANON NP6045 REV.
CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM 5. Scanner Motor (M3) Control Circuit a. Outline Figure 3-304 shows the circuit that controls the scanner motor, and the circuit has the following functions: q Turning on and off the scanner motor. w Controlling the rotation direction of the scanner motor. e Controlling the rotation of the scanner motor to a specific speed. b. Stopping the Motor When the scanner motor drive control signal (M3ON) goes ‘0’, the drive circuit turns OFF and the motor remains stationary. c.
CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM The rotation speed control circuit compares the scanner speed signal and the clock pulse (SCMCLK) generated by the scanner motor and sends control signals to the motor drive circuit according to the difference. The motor drive circuit does not change the voltage applied to the motor but rather turns ON and OFF the power to the motor at short intervals to control the speed of rotation. (The voltage is maintained constant, but the ON/OFF periods are varied.
CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM IV. OTHERS A. Detecting the Size of Originals 1. Outline The copier is provided with an auto paper selection function and an auto reproduction ratio selection function, which require identification of the size of originals.

Operation The DC controller measures the outputs of the original detection circuits for 15 sec after the closing copyboard cover turns on the copyboard cover open/closed sensor (PS5) or at intervals of 0.
CHAPTER 3 EXPOSURE SYSTEM If an original is over a sensor, the light reflected by the original is received by the original detection circuit so that the output of the detection circuit is specific regardless of the angle of the copyboard cover. If no original is over the sensor, on the other hand, the output immediately after PS5 turns on is small.

CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM I. PROCESSES A. Controlling the Surface Potential of the Drum 1. Outline Changes in the latent static images affect the quality of copy images to a very high degree, and such changes can be caused by any of the following: q changes in the sensitivity of the drum. w changes in the degree of charging by the primary corona assembly. e changes in the degree of exposure. These changes, in turn, are caused by changes in the site of installation (e.g.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM 2. Control Method The copier uses its internal potential sensor to measure the dark area potential (VD) and the light area potential (VL1) of the drum surface, and uses the data to enable the target value through correction. In addition, the copier measures the light area potential (VL2) for developing bias in relation to the conditions it used for such correction when determining the DC component of the developing bias.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM a. Primary Current Control To measure the dark area potential (VD) for the first time after power-on, a reference current (setting stored in ROM) is sent to the primary charging assembly, and the potential sensor is used to measure the drum surface potential.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM Note: If the measurement is in excess of the control range of the target value after measuring the potential eight times, the notation ‘1’ will be indicated for ‘LLMT’ (upper limit flag of the lamp ON voltage) in service mode (display mode; *1*). c.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM 3. Potential Measurement Circuit Figure 4-103 is a cross-sectional diagram of the potential sensor, and Figure 4-104 is a block diagram of the potential measuring circuit.

CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM The LINT signal varies the pulse duty between 10% and 57.6% according to the setting of the Copy Density key or the density of the original, sensitivity of the drum and the setting of the intensity control VR so that the supply voltage to the scanner varies between 45 and 65 V (effective value) by way of exerting phase control. 10% pulse duty 100% pulse duty Figure 4-106 c.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM Scanning lamp intensity Figure 4-108 shows the changes in the intensity of the scanning lamp in relation to differing densities of originals. If the density of an original is lower (darker) than that of the Test Sheet and higher (lighter) than that of a newspaper, the intensity of the scanning lamp varies between F5 and F9 with reference to the copy density indications.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM 4. Check Points a. Checking the Voltage of J111B-8 (LAON) Check to make sure that the voltage between J111B-8 and J111B-5 (GND) on the DC controller PCB is about 5 V while the scanner is moving forward and is 0 V during initial rotation, while the scanner is moving in reverse, and during last rotation. b.

CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM The transfer corona current output is turned ON and OFF by the high-voltage DC remote signal (DCON). Further, the output level of the transfer current is controlled by the transfer charging level control signal (HVTTC). When the HVTTC signal is about 3 V or more and less than 11 V, the output of the transfer corona current turns ON; it turns OFF when the signal is about 12 V or more. a. Transfer Corona Current OFF HVTTC is about 12 V. DCON is ‘0’.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM D. Controlling the Separation/ Pre-Transfer Corona Current 1.

CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM 2. Turning ON and OFF the Separation/ Pre-Transfer Corona Current The separation corona current and the pre-transfer corona current are turned ON and OFF by the HVTAC drive signal (HVP.POST.AC), roller electrode drive signal (ROED), and high-voltage DC drive signal (DCON). 3.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM 5. Controlling the DC Component Overcurrent of the Separation/Pre-Transfer Corona Current If an overcurrent flows into the separation/pre-transfer charging assembly, the highvoltage transformer stop signal (HVTOFF) is generated to cut off the corona current (DC/AC component) temporarily to the pre-transfer/separation charging assembly.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM E. Controlling the Blank Exposure Lamp (LEDs) 1. Outline The blank exposure lamp is a LED array consisting of 134 LEDs. All 134 LEDs turn ON when the blank exposure lamp ON signal (BLKON) goes ‘0’ while the drum is rotating to prevent adhesion of unwanted toner on the photosensitive drum. (This does not apply while an original is exposed or during potential control and AE measurement.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM 5. Controlling the Activation in Original Frame Erasing Mode In original frame erasing, LEDs are turned ON so that a margin (about 2 mm) along the sides in relation to the original are kept free of toner.

CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM 7. Controlling the Activation in Hole Image Erasing Mode Hole image erasing mode is provided to prevent black dots from appearing on copies made of an original with holes. LEDs are turned ON so that a width covering such holes will be free of toner. The width may be varied between 1 and 20 mm. Feeding direction 1~20mm Figure 4-118 8. Controlling the Activation of AE Mode In AE mode, the surface potential of the drum is measured, requiring that LEDs be turned OFF.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM F. Drum Heater Circuit 1. Outline The inside of the photosensitive drum is equipped with a drum heater (60 W), and the heater serves to keep the surface temperature of the drum at a specific level at all times. The AC power is supplied to the drum heater through the power switch (SW1), door switch (SW2), drum heater switch (SW3), and AC driver.

CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM 2. Idle Rotation of the Photosensitive Drum and the Developing Cylinder In a high-humidity environment, the photosensitive drum and the developing cylinder could absorb moisture, possibly lowering the density of copies made in the morning while at times distorting images.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM G. Cleaning the Primary Charging Wire 1. Outline The copier is equipped with an automatic cleaning mechanism for cleaning the charging wire of the primary charging assembly, and cleaning is executed when the following conditions are met: • The temperature of the fixing roller is 100°C or less at power-on. • Charging wire cleaning is executed in user mode. (p. 1-16) • Last rotation (LSTR) has ended after making about 2000 copies.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM H. Cleaning the Pre-Transfer, Transfer, and Separation Charging Wires Automatically The copier is equipped with an automatic cleaning mechanism for the charging wires used in the pre-transfer, transfer, and separation charging assemblies.

CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM II. DEVELOPING ASSEMBLY AND CLEANING ASSEMBLY A. Outline The developing assembly is driven by engaging and disengaging the drive from the main motor by the developing clutch (CL8). The cleaning assembly is supplied with drive by the main motor through drum gears.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM B. Detecting the Toner Level and Controlling the Supply Operation The toner inside the developing assembly is monitored by the toner sensor (TS2); when the toner inside the developing assembly drops below a specific level while the developing clutch (CL8) is ON during copying, the developing assembly toner level signal ( DTEP ) goes ‘0’ and the signal is sent to the DC controller PCB.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM The number of copies valid at this time is stored in RAM on the DC controller PCB. If the hopper toner level detection signal ( TEP =1) is detected for 1 sec or more, the DC controller PCB will assume the presence of toner and clear the counter reading while removing the message Add Toner from the control panel. Reference: A piezoelectric oscillator is used inside the developing assembly and the hopper.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM C. Controlling the Developing Bias/Roller Electrode 1. Outline The developing cylinder during copying is given an AC bias and DC bias. The DC bias is a sum of VL2 measured by the potential sensor before starting copying operation and 100 V. To prevent adhesion of unwanted toner to the photosensitive drum, the DC bias is varied according to the surface potential of the drum.

Controlling the DC bias to a specific level. q Turning OFF the AC Bias The developing bias remote signal ACBTP is ‘0’. The AC bias switch circuit turns OFF. The drive circuit turns OFF. The AC transformer (T401) output stops. The above condition stops the AC bias to the developing cylinder.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM e Controlling the DC Bias Voltage to a Specific Level The voltage level of the DC bias is determined by the level of the signal (DCBC) from the DC controller PCB. • The high-voltage DC remote signal (DCBTP) is ‘1’. • The roller bias remote signal (ROED) is ‘1’. • The developing DC control signal DCBC is 3 V or more or less than 12 V, and the AC bias switch circuit turns ON.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM w Turning OFF the Roller Electrode • When the high-voltage DC remote signal (DCBTP) is ‘0’ and the roller bias signal (ROED) is ‘0’, the switching circuit turns OFF and the high-voltage transformer drive circuit turns OFF. The DC transformer T402 turns OFF to deprive the roller electrode of the bias.
CHAPTER 4 IMAGE FORMATION SYSTEM D. Detecting the Locking of the Waste Toner Feeding Screw If, for some reason, the waste toner pipe becomes clogged with waste toner and the waste toner feeding screw is prevented from rotation, the waste toner can fall out of the pipe. To prevent such a problem, a feeding screw locking detection mechanism is provided.

CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM I. PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM A. Outline The copier uses center reference, in which copy paper is moved along the center of the pick-up/feeding path, thereby ensuring stable pick-up feeding operations. The pick-up system consists of the paper deck, cassettes, and multifeeder assembly; in addition, the system includes the holding tray assembly and the holding tray feeding assembly for making two-sided/overlay copies.

CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM II. PICK-UP FROM THE CASSETTE A. Pick-Up Operation See Figure 5-201 for an idea of how cassette pick-up operations are controlled.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM 1. Outline The copy paper inside the cassette is lifted by the lifter so that it remains in contact with the pick-up roller. When the pick-up clutch (CL10, CL12) turns ON, the pick-up roller rotates to pick-up copy paper. Then, the pick-up roller releasing solenoid (SL11, SL12) turns ON so that the pick-up roller leaves the paper.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM B. Cassette Lifter Operations The lifter inside the cassette is designed so that the pick-up roller lowers when the cassette is pushed inside the copier, causing the lifter position sensor (P25, PS28) to leave the light-blocking plate. This condition turns ON the lifter motor (M14, M15) to move up the lifter. The lifter motor stops where the lifter position sensor (PS25, PS28) can detect the top surface of the stack of copy paper on the lifter.

CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM C. Detecting the Size of Copy Paper in the Cassette 1. Outline The size of the copy paper inside the cassette is detected by the paper size sensor installed to the rear of the cassette holder. When the cassette is slid into the cassette holder, the paper size sensor is pushed by the boss on the cassette, enabling the identification of the width and the length of the copy paper.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM Width guide (rear) Paper width detecting VR Width guide (front) Paper length sensor unit Cassette Length guide Figure 5-207 3. Markings on the Width Guide Rail The width guide rail inside the cassette has paper size positioning holes marked A through M as shown in Table 5-201. Make use of these holes if the user reports such problems as skew pick-up to make sure if the specified width is the actual width of the copy paper being used.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM 4. Paper Sizes The microprocessor on the DC controller PCB identifies the size of paper according to the following table. The paper sizes in Table 5-203 are specified in service mode selected in relation to each group. (The asterisk indicates the paper size specified at time of shipment.

CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM III. PICK-UP FROM THE PAPER DECK A. Outline The paper deck picks up and feeds paper by operating various loads in response to the instructions from the DC controller PCB. The loads used to pick up and feed paper and move up the lifter are driven by the pick-up motor. The service person is expected to register the new size in service mode whenever the deck size has been changed.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM 1. Pick-Up Operations The copy paper inside the deck is lifted by the lifter so that the copy paper remains in contact with the pick-up roller. When the deck pick-up clutch (CL14) turns ON, the pick-up roller rotates to pick up copy paper. Then, the deck pick-up roller releasing solenoid (SL4) turns ON so that the pick-up roller leaves the surface of the paper.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM B. Lifter Operations 1. Operations When the deck is pushed inside the pedestal, the deck open/closed sensor (PS38) turns ON and, at the same time, the pick-up roller lowers, causing the deck lifter position sensor (PS31) to leave the light-blocking plate. This condition turns ON the lifter drive motor (M18), and the drive of the pick-up motor (M2) is transmitted to the cable take-up shaft to move up the lifter.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM Lifter detecting lever Pick-up roller Feeding roller Lifter position sensor (PS31) Separation roller Copy paper Lifter Deck : Pick-up roller up; i.e., the light-blocking plate of the lifter detecting lever lowers, blocking the lifter position sensor (PS31). : Pick-up roller down; i.e., the light-blocking plate of the lifter detecting lever moves up, leaving the lifter position sensor (PS31). Figure 5-304 2.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM C. Detecting Paper for the Deck 1. Detecting the Presence/Absence of Paper The presence/absence of paper inside the deck is detected by the deck paper sensor (PS32). When the deck runs out of copy paper, the paper detecting lever leaves the deck paper sensor (PS32), indicating the absence of paper. Paper sensor Paper detecting lever Figure 5-306 (paper present) Paper sensor Paper detecting lever Figure 5-307 (paper absent) 2.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM IV. PICK-UP FROM THE MULTIFEEDER A. Pick-Up Operation The presence of paper in the multifeeder is checked by the multifeeder paper sensor (PS22).
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM B. Detecting the Size of Paper in the Multifeeder When the slide guide of the multifeeder is set to suit the paper width, the variable resistor operating in conjunction with the movement of the slide guide generates a specific output, allowing the DC controller to identify the width of the copy paper. The width identified this way is used to control the lens and blank exposure.

, , CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM V. CONTROLLING THE REGISTRATION CLUTCH The registration clutch serves to make sure that copy paper and the image on the drum match at a specific point. In modes other than binding mode, the registration clutch exerts control so that the leading edge of copy paper and that of the image on the drum match. In binding mode, control is as shown in Figure 5-501 so that a binding margin will be created on the copy.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM VI. MAKING TWO-SIDED/OVERLAY COPIES (1st SIDE) A. Two-Sided/Overlay Copy Operation The feeding path for copying on the first side of a two-sided/overlay copy is formed when the delivery paper deflecting plate is lifted by the delivery paper deflecting solenoid (SL2). The paper deflecting plate is lifted as soon as the registration clutch (CL9) turns ON.
, CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM 1.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM B. Making Two-Sided Copies (2nd side) When copying on the second side of a two-sided copy, the copy paper is picked up from the stack on the holding tray. When the Copy Start key is pressed, the holding tray separation clutch (CL6) and the holding tray re-pick up roller solenoid (SL6) turn ON to feed one sheet of copy paper to the holding tray registration roller.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM 1.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM C. Making Overlay Copies (2nd side) 1. Outline The feeding path for copying on the second side of an overlay copy is formed when the holding tray paper deflecting plate is lifted by the holding tray paper deflecting solenoid (SL8). The second side is copied on copy paper picked up from the holding tray. The copy paper is first fed in the direction of the holding tray inlet and then switched back in the direction of the holding tray registration roller.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM 2. Outline of Operations q After pick-up, the copy paper is fed upward by the holding tray paper deflecting plate. Holding tray paper deflecting plate PS14 Figure 5-606 w As soon as the trailing edge of the copy paper leaves the holding tray paper deflecting plate, the holding tray forward clutch (CL5) turns OFF, temporarily stopping the copy paper.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM r The copy paper reaches the holding tray registration roller and moves ahead to the registration roller through the holding tray feeding assembly. ly emb ass g n i feed ray ng t i d l o To h PS14 Figure 5-609 5-26 COPYRIGHT © 1997 CANON INC.

CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM 3.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM D. Reversal Delivery The reversal delivery feeding path is formed by the delivery paper deflecting plate lifted by the delivery deflecting plate solenoid (SL2). The delivery deflecting plate operates as soon as the registration clutch (CL9) turns ON, thereby forwarding the paper in the direction of the holding tray.
, , CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM 1.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM E. Switching Paper Sizes for Two-Sided/Overlay/Reversal Delivery Copies 1. Movement of the Paper Size Guide When the Copy Start key is pressed in two-sided/overlay/reversal delivery copy mode, the holding tray (X, Y) motor (M8, M9) starts to rotate clockwise, and the paper size guide moves in the direction of the arrow (Figure 5-614).
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM 2. Movement of the Paper Jogging Plate and the Rear Guide Plate When copy paper reaches the holding tray assembly, the paper jogging plate (X direction) and the rear guide plate (Y direction) operate to arrange sheets of paper. The holding tray paper jogging solenoid (SL9) on the holding tray paper guide plate is turned ON/OFF to operate the paper jogging plate to put the sheets of copy paper into order, thereby preventing skew movement for re-pick up.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM 3. Detecting Copy Paper Copy paper (last sheet) is detected for re-pick up from the holding tray. When copy paper has been stacked on the holding tray, the holding tray re-circulating motor (M7) is driven to place the re-circulating lever on the top sheet of the stack.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM F. Re-Pick Up from the Holding Tray When the Copy Start key is pressed for copying on the second side, pick-up/separation operation is initiated.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM G. Skipping 1. Outline What is termed skipping is a copy sequence used when making two-sided copies of one-sided originals by skipping every other original, thereby making efficient use of the space in the feeding assembly (holding tray assembly and holding tray feeding assembly) not taken up by copy paper.

CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM 5. Reverse Delivery Reverse delivery is executed when an odd number of originals are copied in skipping mode or when reverse delivery is selected. In reverse delivery, the copies are turned over for delivery so that they are collated on the copy tray. a. If the copies of an odd number of originals are stacked not using reverse delivery, 1 2 3 Figure 5-622a b.
CHAPTER 5 PICK-UP/FEEDING SYSTEM VII. DETECTING JAMS A. Outline As many as 17 sensors are arranged as shown in Figure 5-701 to check if copy paper is moving properly. The microprocessor reads signals from sensors at such times as programmed to detect jams. When the microprocessor detects a jam, it discharges all sheets moving ahead of the jam and stops the ongoing operation; thereafter, it indicates instructions on jam removal on the control panel.

CHAPTER 6 FIXING SYSTEM I. BASIC OPERATIONS A. Outline The upper and lower rollers of the fixing assembly and the delivery roller are driven by the main motor (M1) through clutches. (See Figure 6-101.) The upper roller is equipped with two built-in heaters; the sub heater is turned on during WMUP after power-on, and the main heater is turned on/off during WMUP and thereafter for temperature control. (See Figure 6-102.
CHAPTER 6 FIXING SYSTEM B. Fixing Drive Assembly If a jam occurs in the fixing delivery assembly, the DC controller PCB generates the fixing drive stop signal to turn ON the fixing drive stop solenoid (SL3), thereby immediately stopping the fixing roller. The belt used to clean the upper fixing roller is taken up gradually when the cleaning belt take-up arm is moved up and down by the cleaning belt drive solenoid (SL14).
CHAPTER 6 FIXING SYSTEM C. Controlling the Fixing Temperature The surface temperature of the upper fixing roller is monitored by the main thermistor (TH1), and the output of the thermistor is sent to the microprocessor. Using the output, the microprocessor varies the main heater drive signal (MHRD) and the sub heater drive signal (SHRD) to control the fixing temperature. The rear of the copier’s upper fixing roller is equipped with a sub thermistor (TH2) to monitor overheating.
CHAPTER 6 FIXING SYSTEM The copier uses the six types of control shown in Tables 6-101 and -102 in relation to the time that has elapsed from power-on and according to the ambient temperature.
CHAPTER 6 FIXING SYSTEM w Copy Speed Down Sequence The copier makes as many as 45 copies per minute normally. To ensure proper fixing, however, the sheet-to-sheet gap is increased if the main thermistor (TH1) on the upper fixing roller detects the following surface temperature.

CHAPTER 6 FIXING SYSTEM G. Locking the Fixing/Feeding Unit If a jam straddles the fixing/feeding unit and the holding tray unit when the copier stops because of a jam, i.e., paper exists over the internal delivery sensor (PS12), the main motor (M1) and the fixing/feeding unit locking solenoid (SL13) are turned ON for about 3 sec. This way, the locking lever is lowered from the fixing/feeding unit to the rear of the holding tray unit.
CHAPTER 6 FIXING SYSTEM H. Error Detection Circuit LA1 Lamp regulator 1. Outline Figure 6-109 is a control block diagram of the error detection circuit, which has the following functions: a. monitoring the activation of the scanning lamp (LA1). b. monitoring the activation of the fixing heaters (main, H1; sub, H2). c. monitoring the rotation of each motor in normal reading and stream reading. Each of these functions is executed by the gate arrays of the DC controller PCB.
CHAPTER 6 FIXING SYSTEM 2. Scanning Lamp Error Activation Detection Circuit The gate array is designed to receive the scanning lamp ON signal (CVRON) and the scanning lamp ON detection signal (CVRACTIVE). It detects an error if the scanning lamp is ON in the absence of the scanning lamp ON signal. In such cases, the gate array informs the master CPU of the error detection of the scanning lamp and, at the same time, generates the power switch OFF signal.
CHAPTER 6 FIXING SYSTEM 3. Fixing Heater Error Activation Detection Circuit The gate array generates the fixing heater ON signal (SSRON) and receives the fixing heater ON detection signal (SSR ACTIVE). An error is detected if the fixing heater is ON in the absence of the fixing heater ON signal. In such cases, the gate array informs the master CPU of the error activation of the fixing heater and, at the same time, generates the power switch OFF signal.

CHAPTER 7 EXTERNALS/AUXILIARY MECHANISMS I. CONTROL PANEL A. Outline The copier’s control panel consists of the control panel controller PCB, 320 × 240dot liquid crystal display panel unit, transparent touch switch panel, and key switch panel, and it provides the following functions: q Data communication w LCD processing e LCD contrast automatic adjustment and manual adjustment r Touch switch input t Key switch input B. Operation 1.
CHAPTER 7 EXTERNALS/AUXILIARY MECHANISMS 2. LCD Processing The microprocessor on the DC controller PCB sends commands to the LCD controller as necessary; in response, the LCD controller interprets these commands and executes them. The LCD controller serves to turn ON/OFF the indicators according to the appropriate instructions.
CHAPTER 7 EXTERNALS/AUXILIARY MECHANISMS 3. LCD Contrast Automatic Adjustment The control panel controller PCB is equipped with a function that adjusts the changes in the contrast caused by changes in temperature. The control panel controller PCB is equipped with a thermistor (TH911) to monitor the temperature inside the control panel. The voltage supplied to the LCD is varied according to the changes in resistance of the temperature to ensure optimum contrast on the LCD.
CHAPTER 7 EXTERNALS/AUXILIARY MECHANISMS 4. Touch Switch Input The keys of the touch switch panel and the control panel controller PCB are connected as shown in Figure 7-102. The touch switch panel consists of bonded glass and film sheets between which pacers are provided; it has keys in a pattern of 15 columns and 20 rows. When the film surface is pressed by a finger, the contact between the film and the glass causes electrical continuity.
CHAPTER 7 EXTERNALS/AUXILIARY MECHANISMS II. FANS The copier is equipped with six fans, serving to exhaust ozone, collect stray toner, and cool the parts. Table 7-201 shows the function of each fan together with its filter and fan orientation. FM8 FM5 FM7 FM6 FM3 FM2 Figure 7-201 COPYRIGHT © 1997 CANON INC. CANON NP6045 REV. 1 MAR.

CHAPTER 7 EXTERNALS/AUXILIARY MECHANISMS As a means of protection for the power supply PCB, the AC power supply input side is equipped with a fuse and each DC circuit is equipped with a built-in overcurrent protection circuit. If an overcurrent flows because of a short circuit in the power supply line, the protection circuit will turn on to turn OFF the output of the power supply unit. If such happens, disconnect the power plug, and remove the cause of activation; then, turn ON the power supply.
CHAPTER 7 EXTERNALS/AUXILIARY MECHANISMS IV. DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY This section explains mechanical characteristics and describes how to disassemble/assemble the machine.
