Introduction
The cause of most accidents is failure to adhere to basic safety rules and observe
safety instructions. It is important to prevent potential causes of accidents from
occurring. In order to do so, read this manual carefully, and be sure to understand
all the safety instructions and correct inspection and servicing procedures that it
provides before beginning repair or servicing work.
Repairing or servicing the machine with insufficient knowledge about it could lead to
unforeseen accidents.
It is not possible to anticipate and describe in a manual such as this every possible
hazard that could arise in the course of repair and servicing. Therefore, besides
observing the safety instructions marked in this manual and on the machine’s
labels, service personnel should be safety-conscious and take other safety precautions
as necessary. When performing repair or service work not covered by this manual,
you should obtain safety guidance from an appropriately knowledgeable person.

Caution
Installation environment
● Avoid installing the machine in places exposed to direct sunlight.
• Sunlight will cause the temperature in the machine’s interior to rise, possibly leading to
malfunction of the control system.
• Sunlight could cause glitch of the sensors.
• The heat of direct sunlight could cause deformation of the machine’s plastic parts.
* Also avoid installation near to a ground glass window; light and heat penetrate such
windows although they are opaque.
● Avoid installing the machine in places subject to high or low temperature or humidity.
• High or low temperature or humidity could cause the machine to operate abnormally.
Suitable temperature and humidity ranges are:
Ambient temperature : 10°C–30°C
Ambient humidity : 40%–70%
Optimum temperature and humidity : 20°C, 65%
• If the machine is installed near to faucets, water heaters or humidifiers, or in cool (sunless)
parts of a building or in the vicinity of water sources, the paper could absorb moisture and
curl, leading to misfeeds.
● Avoid installing the machine in places with open flames, or where reflected heat or other hot
air currents (from stoves, etc), or cold air currents from coolers, etc will strike it directly.
● Avoid installing the machine in poorly ventilated places.
● Avoid installing the machine in dusty places.
● The machine should not be tilting when it is used.
• Install the machine so that it is level. (The machine should be level to within 5 mm in the front-
rear direction, and 5 mm in the lateral direction.)

Chapter 2 1 ADF Section
1 ADF Section
1. Description
The machine contains a ADF of the document moving type which scans images while the
document is fed. The document is illuminated with the contact image sensor(CIS) while being
transferred, and the reflection in proportion to the document image darkness is imaged on the
contact image sensor(CIS).Then the image is resoluted into picture elements and converted
photoelectrically into the level of electricity simultaneously.
2
The document is fed and carried by single stepping motor with one clutch to engage or disengage
the paper feed roller. The clutch is turned on only for feeding paper to engage the ADF stepping
motor with the driving system for the paper feed roller. After the document reaches the ejection
roller, the clutch is turned off to let the paper feed roller follow the movement of the document (fed
by the ejection roller).

motor (PM1) and the ADF clutch (CL1) to feed
2
the document.
2. Positioning
When the front end of the document reaches
the document sensor 2 (PS2), the sensor 2
(PS2) is photointerrupted and detects the front
end of the document, which turns off the ADF CIS
3. Paper feed 2
Pressing the MASTER MAKING key turns on
the ADF stepping motor (PM1) and the ADF
clutch (CL1) again to feed the document.
Almost simultaneously, the lamp of the CIS CIS

2. Ejection
When the rear end of the document has
passed by the document sensor 2 (PS2) , the
document sensor 2 (PS2) is photoexposed
and detects the rear end of the document.
When the document is fed 20 mm after the end
of the document is detected, image reading
for master making is finished and the ADF
stepping motor (PM1) changes to slower speed
to eject the document.
3. Stop
When the document is transferred 110 mm
after the stepping motor (PM1) changes to
slower speed, the canner stepping motor (PM1)
is turned off to stop ejection.

Chapter 2 1 ADF Section
Operation
1. Paper feed 1 for the second document
If the document sensor (PS1) is
photointerrupted when the document has been
2
ejected and master making process is finished
at the master feeding section, it is determined
that the next document exists and the ADF
stepping motor (PM1) and the ADF clutch
(CL1) are turned on to feed the document.
2. Positioning
When the front end of the document reaches
the document sensor 2 (PS2), the document
sensor 2 (PS2) is photointerrupted and detects
the front end of the document, which turns off
the ADF stepping motor (PM1) and the ADF
clutch (CL1) to hold. This method assures
stable positioning of the document.
3. Paper feed 2
When the previous document has been
printed, the ADF stepping motor (PM1) and
the ADF clutch (CL1) is turned on to feed the
document. Almost simultaneously, the lamp CIS
of the CIS is lit to perform shading before the
document reaches the CIS. Reading of the
document for master making is started when
the document is fed approx. 17 mm after the
ADF stepping motor (PM1) and the ADF clutch
(CL1) is turned on.

• Shading
CIS
The CIS is lit to complete shading by the time the document reaches the CIS from the holding
position. In shading, the quantity of light on the shading plate (white section) is detected to correct
any local differences in the quantity of light of the CIS and/or any changes in the quantity of light
due to time. On shading, if the received quantity of light is not greater than the specified value,
"ADF OPEN" is detected.
CIS
Image reading is performed when the document is fed on the glass from the holding position.
Image reading is started when the document is fed approx. 15 mm after the scanned stepping
motor (PM1) and the ADF clutch (CL1) are turned on. Image reading is terminated either of the
following conditions is met.

1. Description
Make the master clamp of the drum unit clamp the master top end, performing master making on the
master with the thermal head. (In this machine, the master on the drum is ejected at the same time
when master making is performed.)
The master is conveyed to the drum unit via the platen roller and sponge roller by driving of the
stepping motor, while it is being processed in the head section. Sponge roller is driven through the
master feeding clutch (electromagnetic clutch), and controls the amount of master conveyed to the
master clamp section of the drum unit with the master feeding clutch ON / OFF.
The end mark sensor starts to detect when the end mark (black) section printed on the end of the roll
master is conveyed. "ROLL MASTER END" is displayed on the error display panel. The end mark
sensor also detects whether the master is conveyed properly through the sensor.

Operation
In master making, the end mark sensor uses amount of reflected light to detect presence or absence
of a master on the transfer path. Then the following displays and operations are performed:
● When a master setting error is detected, "MASTER SET MISS" is displayed and printing is not
processed.
● "MASTER SET MISS" is only cleared by opening and closing the top cover.
(It is not cleared by turning the power off.)
● Printing is not performed but master making is only performed when the display is cleared after
"MASTER SET MISS" is displayed. (Because the master is not attached to the drum.)
Timing
1. While master making is being processed, the reflection light amount does not turn to be in a
white level.
2. When master making process is finished (before printing process), the reflection light amount is
in a white level.
Operation
The end mark is printed on the area about 1 m from the end of the master.
● When the end mark is detected, "ROLL-MASTER END" is displayed.
● When "ROLL-MASTER END" is displayed, master making is not performed next.
Timing
When it is considered that the end mark is read under the following conditions, "ROLL-MASTER
END" is displayed.
1. While the master is rolling up to the drum during master making, the following is checked.
2. When the master passes under the end mark sensor, the amount of reflected light is read.
3. If the following conditions are met, it is considered as master end.
White level to "0-10" and black level to "50-63".

After the press roller is pressed to the drum, the printing paper is gripped firmly with the drum and
press roller, the guide roller is released from the timing roller. This is called "escaped". Escape
timing is within a period when the printing paper is conveyed about 10 mm after it is gripped with
the drum and press roller.
IMPORTANT ● When the timing is too late, the printing paper is gripped at two places too long.
Thus master elongation and slippage occur.
● On the contrary, when the timing is too early, the printing paper is not gripped at
all, and it is not well settled. Thus creasing of paper and dispersion of the print
position occurs.

Chapter 2 3 Paper Feed Section
The “paper feed length” is the length by which the paper feed roller feeds out the print paper. When
the paper feed roller feeds out the print paper, the guide roller is pressed against the timing roller
and does not rotate; as a result, the paper arches up between the paper separator and the timing
roller, since the distance between these two items is only 80 mm, while the length by which the
paper is fed out from the paper feed roller is 95 mm. This arching has the effect of correcting any
skewing of the paper (as the leading edge is held firm between the guide and timing rollers). It
also has the effect of lessening the load on the timing roller when it feeds the paper through, thus
minimizing slippage.

For feed amount, the leading edge of the paper is detected by the paper feed length sensor and
paper feed is controlled by program.
Guide roller
Paper
Cam follower

IMPORTANT
● If paper feed length is too large: the arching dimension will be too large, and if the paper
is of a very stiff type, it will buckle up between the paper feed roller and the paper feed
inlet (upper), causing a PAPER JAM error ("PAPER LEFT JAM").
● If paper feed length is too small: the arching dimension will be too small, so that arching
will be unable to correct skewing of the paper, and skewing and wrinkling will be liable
to occur. Furthermore, the slippage that occurs when the timing roller feeds the paper
through will be very large, resulting in print position errors.

The signal lever is positioned at the back of the Guide roller / Timing roller. Whether
the paper is fed by the Timing roller is detected mechanically.
Operation
The pinch lever is attached to the other end of the shaft to which the signal lever is attached. As the
signal lever is jumped by the paper, the pinch lever also jumps. Accordingly the Press roller is out
of control and rises. The above operation keeps the drum from dirts as the Press roller is in contact
with the drum when the paper is not fed. As the Press roller sensor detects rising of the Press roller,
Whether the paper is fed from the paper feed section to the printing section normally is detected
indirectly.

Operation
When the drum is attached to the main body, the cam unit covers the pin and is locked firmly.
The difference of the cam unit prevents the cam unit from being loosened due to the machine
vibration.
When the pin is at the bottom of the cam unit difference, the drum SW is open as shown in the
figure. When the pin is over the cam unit difference, the drum SW is closed.
