Reference
clause
Print head (It is composed of
the head board, sub tank, head,
FFC cable and ink tube.)
Carriage central
+42V
The piezoelectric
device (the head
nozzle)
Installation of Three heads of 2 lines of 180
dot nozzles
It drives after it adds the temperature
compensation with the thermistor on the
C362DRV board and print head.
2.2.1
+3.3V Thermistor Three pieces of head temperature detection
+3.3V
The ink level sensor
(the Hall IC)
Ink quantity detection inside each sub tank
The overflow, ink full, ink low (the output of
3 condition of the ink end)
2.2.6
Cutter solenoid Carriage left side +28V Linear solenoid
When power is ON, cutter edge is pushed
down to the ditch of paper guide L2
Removing the cutter edge with the output
signal of the C362DRV board, and form is
mutilated with the carriage actuation.
2.2.1
CR encoder Carriage surface +5V Linear encoder
Detection of the band (180dpi) of the T
fence
Generating the signal of 720dpi with the
C362DRV board it uses it for the detection of
the carriage location
2.2.1
CR-HP sensor
CR guide rail right
edge
+5V Photo interrupter
Detection with the sensor on the CR rail of
the shutter plate on the carriage
As the home position (the reference point of
the printing actuation) of the carriage it uses it
2.2.1
P-Edge sensor Carriage left side +5V
Reflection style
photo interrupter
Detection of the right edge of the form
Using for the control of the printing starting
position
2.2.1
SLIDE home sensor Right guide frame +5V
Reflection style
photo interrupter
Detection of the location that the gear of the
SLID device bites with the protrusion that
was established to the carriage
Using for the detection of the location that
adjusts the platen gap with the SLIDE motor
2.2.1
CR motor Right guide frame +42V DC motor
Carriage is moved right and left through the
steel belt
At the time of unactuation, holds it with
+5V
Revolution of the motor is controlled (with
superheating inhibition) the C362DRV board
on the basis of the carriage return encoder
signal
2.2.1
SLIDE motor Right guide frame +5V Stepping motor
Gapoftheprintheadisremovedto3stages
(1.4/2.3/2.8mm) through idler gear
Gap between the head and paper are adjusted
on the basis of the detection signal of the P-
THICK sensor
