Introduction

The following rules apply throughout this Service Manual:


1. Each chapter contains sections explaining the purpose of specific functions and the relationship between electrical and mechanical systems with refer-
ence to the timing of operation.
In the diagrams, represents the path of mechanical drive; where a signal name accompanies the symbol , the arrow indicates the
direction of the electric signal.
The expression "turn on the power" means flipping on the power switch, closing the front door, and closing the delivery unit door, which results in
supplying the machine with power.
2. In the digital circuits, '1'is used to indicate that the voltage level of a given signal is "High", while '0' is used to indicate "Low".(The voltage value,
however, differs from circuit to circuit.) In addition, the asterisk (*) as in "DRMD*" indicates that the DRMD signal goes on when '0'.
In practically all cases, the internal mechanisms of a microprocessor cannot be checked in the field. Therefore, the operations of the microprocessors
used in the machines are not discussed: they are explained in terms of from sensors to the input of the DC controller PCB and from the output of the
DC controller PCB to the loads.

The descriptions in this Service Manual are subject to change without notice for product improvement or other purposes, and major changes will be com-
municated in the form of Service Information bulletins.
All service persons are expected to have a good understanding of the contents of this Service Manual and all relevant Service Information bulletins and be
able to identify and isolate faults in the machine."

- Media pass in widths up to 44 inches (1117.6 mm).


- Large ink tanks reduce the need for frequent ink replacement.
- Uninterrupted printing from subtanks.
- BK and MBK inks are loaded concurrently to eliminate the need for their replacement.
- A 12-color pigment ink system "LUCIA EX" is used to improve rubfastness, chromogenic effect, and bronzing resistance, ensuring higher-grade printing.
- A printing mode that improved control of the optimum ink droplet landing order (when in the mode for the highest image quality) and the ink droplet landing
accuracy ensure higher-grade printing.
- A printhead having nozzles (I-shaped nozzle) with a new shape reduces ink mist, ensuring superfine printing.
- The operation panel that equipped a 160 x 128-dot large LCD allows you to operate the printer intuitively.
- Media take-up unit (option) is supported.
- Media take-up unit (option) can be mounted concurrently with a basket.
- Durability will be added by maintenance kit.
- Barcodes printed on roll media makes measuring the remaining roll length more manageable.
- Borderless four-side printing support (roll media) reduces laborious cutting work, easing the job of creating posters to a significant degree.
- High-speed printing with a 1-inch head for each color (1280 nozzles), under bidirectional print control.
- The color calibration feature adds to the faithfulness of color reproduction.
- The network interface (10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T) compatible with 1000Base-T (Gigabit Ethernet) comes standard with the printer to cope with the
high-speed LAN environment.
- Compatibility with e-maintenance/imageWARE Remote allows centralized management of customer's printer information.
- The hard disk is installed for better print job management.

Functional enhancements new to this model include:


- The processing ability of the printed data will enhance by increase of hard disk drive and memory capacity and improvement of throughput.
- A newly multi sensor has been able to perform a high accurate color calibration.

1.2.2 Printhead
0013-2742

The printhead that mounts on the carriage is an integrated six-color disposable printhead.
It has 2,560 nozzles for each color, comprising two rows of 1,280 nozzles each arranged in a staggerd pattern.
If print quality does not improve despite carrying out the specified cleaning, the printhead must be replaced with a new one.

1.2.7 Media Take-up Unit


0014-8824

Media take-up unit


The Media Take-up unit spools the 2 or 3 inch core, the roll media (17" to 44"), after it is printed by the host computer.
Take-up begins once the falling paper is detected by the Media take-up paper detection sensor, attached to the weight roller.
The roll media may also be manually spooled, using the button on the media take up unit.
The media take-up unit has an overload protection feature to prevent accidents while spooling rolls. (This feature will disable the motor automatically when an
overload occurs while spooling a roll.)

Additional features of the media take-up unit include:


- An adapter may be installed to support a 3-inch paper tube.
- Roll media can be unwound by feeding them backwards to visually check the images.
- Weight rollers varying in length to suit specific roll widths ensure added takeup efficiency.
- The printer detects errors in the media take-up unit as an independent function.
- Linked with the printer's sleep mode.

1.2.8 Hard Disk Drive


0017-8472

Each print job received from the host computer is saved to the hard disk drive(serial ATA connection) attached to the printer, so the printer can print the job repeat-
edly as needed, without having to wait for its retransmission from the host computer.

Saving print jobs will offer the following benefits:


- Eased computer workload
A print job may be automatically preserved to the hard disk when printing or may be preserved to the hard disk without printing. A print job preserved can be
printed in as many copies as needed without having to use the host computer.
- Reprinting after error occurrence
If the printer encounters errors, such as paper out, while printing a print job, it can resume the print operation as soon as the errors are cleared, without needing its
retransmission from the host computer.

- Higher print work efficiency


Print jobs can be printed selectively or in a specified number of copies without using a host computer. Multiple print jobs can be printed batched. Unattended print
operations in the nighttime are also possible.

1.2.9 Consumables

1.7.1 Safety Precautions

1.7.1.1 Moving Parts


0012-6284

Be careful not to get your hair, clothes, or accessories caught in the moving parts of the printer.
These include the carriage unit activated by the carriage motor, the carriage belt, the ink tube and the flexible cable; the feed motor-driven the feed roller, the pinch
roller; and the purge motor-driven the purge unit.
To prevent accidents, the upper cover of the printer is locked during printing so that it does not open. If the upper cover is opened in the online/offline mode, the
carriage motor, feed motor, and other driving power supplies are turned off.

1. Ink passages
Be careful not to touch the ink passages of the printer or to allow ink to stain the workbench, hands, clothes or the printer under repair.
The ink flows through the ink tank unit, carriage unit, purge unit, maintenance-jet tray, borderless print ink groove, maintenance cartridge and the ink tubes that
relay ink to each unit.

Although the ink is not harmful to the human body, it contains organic solvents.
Avoid getting the ink in your mouth or eyes.
Flush well with water and see a doctor if contact occurs.
In case of accidental ingestion of a large quantity, call a doctor immediately.

Since this ink contains pigment, stains will not come out of clothing.

1-40
Chapter 1

2. Ink mist
Since the printhead prints by squirting ink onto the media, a minute amount of ink mist is generated in the printing unit during printing. The ink mist is collected
in the printer by the airflow. However, uncollected ink mist may stain the platen unit, carriage unit, main rail unit, external unit, or purge unit.
These stains may soil the print media or hands and clothes when servicing the printer, wipe them off carefully with a soft, well-wrung damp cloth.

1.7.2.1 Printhead
0013-1937

1. How to Handle the Printhead


Do not open the printhead package until you are ready to install the head.
When installing the printhead in the printer, hold the knob and then remove the protective cap 1 and protective cap 2 in that order.
Do not reattach the protective cap to the printhead because the cap may damage the nozzles.
To prevent the nozzles from getting clogged with foreign matter or dried ink, install the printhead immediately after you remove the protective caps.
Also make sure to press down the locking lever of the printhead until you feel a click.
In addition, to prevent clogging of the nozzles with foreign matter and improper supply of ink, never touch the nozzles or ink port, or wipe it with tissue paper or
anything else.
Do not touch Electriacl contact.
Also, never attempt to disassemble/reassemble the printhead or wash it with water.

MEMO:
If the nozzles are clogged or an ink suction problem occurs, white lines can appear on the printout a constant frequency or color dulling can occur. If this problem
is not resolved by cleaning operations, replace the printhead with a new one.

2. Capping
The printer will perform the capping operation when printing has ended or during standby due to an error, in order to protect the printhead and avoid ink leakage.
If the power cord is accidentally unplugged, turn off the Power button, reconnect the power cord, and then turn on the Power button. Confirm that the printer starts
up properly and enters to the "Online" or "Offline" status, and then power off the printer using the Power button.

Improper "capping operation" may cause clogged nozzles due to dried ink or ink leakage from the printhead.

3. When the printer is not used for a long time


Keep the printhead installed in the printer even when it is not used for an extended period of time.

If the printhead is left uninstalled, a printing failure may arise from closed nozzles due to depositing of foreign matter or dried ink when it is reinstalled.
Even if the head remains installed, the nozzle may dry out and cause a printing failure if the ink is drained for transport.

4. Conductivity of Ink
The ink used in this printer is electrically conductive. If ink leaks to into the mechanical unit, wipe clean with a soft, well-wrung damp cloth. If ink leaks onto
electrical units, wipe them completely using tissue paper. If you cannot remove ink completely, replace the electrical units with new ones.

If electrical units are powered with ink leaked onto them, the units may damage.
Never connect the power cord when ink has leaded onto the electrical units.

1.7.2.2 Ink Tank


0012-6292

1. Unpacking the Ink Tank


Do not unpack the ink tank until you are ready to install it.
When installing the ink tank, be sure to shake it slowly 7 to 8 times before unpacking it. Otherwise, the ink ingredients may precipitate and degrade the print quality.
To prevent foreign matter from entering the ink port, install the unpacked ink tank in the printer immediately.

2. Handling the Ink Tank
To prevent foreign matter from entering the ink flow path and causing ink suction and printing problems, never touch the ink port and contacts of the ink tank.
When you press down the ink tank cover, the needle enters the ink port, allowing ink to flow between the printer and ink tank.
Do not raise or lower the ink tank cover except when replacing the ink tank.

1. Precautions against Static Electricity


Certain clothing may generate static electricity, causing an electrical charge to build up on your body. Such a charge can damage electrical devices or change their
electrical characteristics.
In particular, never touch the printhead contacts[1].

[1]

F-1-44
2. Fixing the Carriage
After completion of printing, the carriage is mechanically locked by the lock arm in the purge unit at the same moment the printhead is capped.
Before transporting the printer, secure the carriage at its home position using belt stopper[1] so that the carriage does not become separated from the lock arm and
damage or ink does not leak.

[1] Linear Scale


[2] Carriage Shaft

Don't apply the grease to the linear scale and carriage shaft. It may cause abnormal operations and defective prints.

4. Replacing the Maintenance Cartridge


When the maintenance cartridge detects that the tank is full, the "Repl. Maint. C" error appears. In this case the maintenance cartridge must be replaced.
The printer will not operate until the error is cancelled.
Be careful that the waste ink does not splash when you remove the used maintenance cartridge from the printer.

MEMO:
This printer has an EEPROM in the maintenance cartridge and the maintenance cartridge status is controlled by the main controller PCB which reads and writes
the contents of that EEPROM. Therefore, initializing the counter information will not be needed when the maintenance cartridge is replaced.

5. Refilling the ink


After draining the ink from the printer according to the automatic or manual ink draining procedure for disassemble, reassemble, or transport/ship the printer, refill
the ink as soon as possible upon completion of those tasks.
Dried remaining ink on the surface of some components, may cause damage or abnormal operations.

a) The printer driver on the host computer transmits print data, including command data, to the printer after compressing the image data, without resolution, color
and 12-color binarization conversion.
To achieve high-quality image output, the image processing table data used for image data color conversion and binarization conversion are generated as command
data to meet the Media Type and other specifications of the printer driver.
b) This printer receives print data from the individual interfaces on the main controller, transmitting the received print data to ASIC (IC1).
c) The main controller decompresses the print data transmitted to the ASIC and gets it through resolution, color and 12-color binarization conversion while loading
the data into SDRAM from time to time.
It also converts the print data to 12-color binary equivalents of image and command data.
d) The ASIC (IC1) generates image data synthesized with mask data within the ASIC in sync with the discharge time while loading the data into SDRAM from
time to time.
e) The ASIC (IC2) collects printhead information from EEPROM mounted on the printheads and the printer temperature from the latch IC on the carriage board
and transmit them to the ASIC (IC1).
The ASIC (IC1) also receives mask pattern data from the firmware installed in flash ROM.
f) The ASIC (IC1) converts the image data synthesized with the mask pattern to data associated with the printhead information and the printer temperature, trans-
mitting the data to the printheads as a print signal. It transmits heat pulses to the printheads at the same time to optimize head driving.
g) The printheads convert the received print signal from a serial signal to a parallel signal for each row of nozzles and then the signal is composed with the heat
pulses to perform the printing.
h) The ASIC (IC1) controls the general aspects of image processing and print drive control by detecting the status of the individual printer components with refer-
ence to the adjustment values stored in EEPROM. SDRAM is used as work memory.
i) The ASIC (IC2) controls the general aspects of drive control by controlling button actuations and message displays on the basis of the firmware installed in flash
ROM.

2.1.3 Print Driving


0024-9422

Print and control signals are transferred via the carriage board to the printheads to discharge inks from the nozzle assembly at printing.
Each printhead has 12 trains of nozzles arranged in a zigzag pattern.
This printer uses two printheads arranged side by side.
(In installed state, from left to right, PC, C, MBK, Y, M, PM, R, G, B, PGY, GY, PBK)
Print signals directed at each nozzle train are even-numbered nozzle data (Hx-x-DATA-x-EV) and odd-numbered nozzle data (Hx-x-DATA-x-OD). These are
transferred in timing with a data transfer clock (Hx-CLK) and data latch pulses (Hx-LT).
The Heat Enable (Hx-x-HE-x) drive control signal enables inks to be discharged from the nozzles.

1. Pint drive control


Each train of nozzles in a printhead has 2,560 nozzles.
Ink discharge nozzles are selected split in 40-, 20- or 10-nozzle blocks according to the Block Enable information in the even-numbered nozzle data and odd-num-
bered nozzle data.
Each selected block of nozzles is impressed with a Heat Enable signal generated with variable pulse widths according to the head rank, head temperature and printer
temperature for optimized ink discharges. The nozzles are driven by heater boards in the nozzles to discharge inks. Optimal nozzle blocks are selected according
to the print path.
The diagram below illustrates the relationship between a 40-block nozzle and nozzles driven.

2. Print drive timing


Each printhead houses 12 trains of nozzles, which share the same data transfer clock (Hx-CLK) and data latch pulses (Hx-LT).
Even-numbered nozzle data (Hx-x-DATA-x-EV), odd-numbered nozzle data (Hx-x-DATA-x-OD) and the Heat Enable (Hx-x-HE-x) signal are generated for each
nozzle train and controlled individually.
Printing is carried out in two ways through reciprocating motion of the carriage.
An encoder sensor mounted on the carriage generates a 150-dpi-pitched linear scale detection signal (ENCODER_A) and a signal (ENCODER_B) shifted 120 de-
grees in phase. The direction of carriage motion is detected from the status of the ENCODER_B signal relative to the leading edge of the ENCODER_A signal.
The printhead is driven using a 2400-dpi timing signal (internal signal), which is generated by dividing the ENCODER_A signal detected at the 150 dpi timing into
16 equal sections.
Printing in the forward direction is triggered at the leading edge of the detection signal (ENCODER_A).
Printing in the backward direction is carried out the same way as printing in the forward direction but at the trailing edge of the detection signal (ENCODER_A),
when the order of heated nozzles is reversed depending on the sequence of transfer of even-numbered nozzle data and odd-numbered nozzle data.

Turning off the power switch cuts off the drive voltage supply, launching a firmware power-off sequence as shown below.

If the power cord is disconnected from the wall outlet or the upper cover or any other cover is opend, the printer cancels the ongoing operation and shuts down
immediately. Since printhead capping may or may not have been carried out properly, reconnect the power cord to the wall out and turn on the power switch. Making
sure that the printer has entered online mode, turn off the power switch.

2.2.3 Print Position Adjustment Function


0012-6313

This printer supports a print position adjustment for the vertical and horizontal print positions, the bidirectional print position of the printhead mounted on the car-
riage, and the feedrate.
There are two adjustment modes for the print: automatic adjustment, in which print position adjustment patterns printed are detected by the multi sensor attached
to the lower left part of the carriage, and manual adjustment, in which print position adjustment patterns that are slightly modified from one another are printed, so
that visually verified adjustment values can be set from the operation panel.
To make print position adjustments, A3-or-larger-sized roll media or cut media are needed.

2.2.4 Head Management


0012-6314

This printer supports a nozzle check function to spot non-discharging nozzles in the printhead.
When the printer detects a non-discharging nozzle, it starts cleaning the printhead automatically to correct its discharge failure. If cleaning does not work, the printer
backs up the non-discharging nozzle with an alternative nozzle automatically to ensure unfailing print performance.

Detection timings (automatic):


Power-on, carriage cover open detection, print start (check timing variable by selecting Nozzle Check from the system menu).

2.2.5 Printhead Overheating Protection Control


0012-6315

When an abnormal temperature rise in the printhead is detected, overheating protection control launches.
Overheating could occur in the printhead after a period of print operations without the nozzles being filled with inks.
Overheating protection control is implemented on the basis of the temperature detected by the head temperature sensor for each nozzle. When an abnormal temper-
ature is detected in any nozzle train, overheating protection control is exerted at one of two levels according to that temperature.

Protection level 1:
If the head temperature sensor (DI sensor) detects a temperature higher than the protection temperature, it halts the carriage temporarily at the scan end position in
the direction of travel according to the carriage scan status.
Printing resumes when the printhead radiates naturally to cool down below a predetermined temperature or when 30 seconds or longer have elapsed since the de-
tection of the higher temperature.

Protection level 2:
If the head temperature sensor (DI sensor) detects a temperature higher than the abnormal temperature, the printer shuts down the print operation immediately,
moving the carriage to the home position for capping, with an error indication on the display.

2.2.6 Pause between Pages


0012-6320

An inter-page function is available to prevent ink rubbing, which keeps paper just printed hanging above the platen and waiting for a predetermined period of time
before delivery.
The wait time is user-programmable from the print driver. This feature is particularly useful on paper that takes time to dry after printing, such as film.

2.2.7 White Raster Skip


0012-6322

This printer supports a white raster skip function to bypass carriage scanning in a consecutive sequence of voids in print data, for added throughput.

2.2.8 Sleep Mode

2.2.9 Hard Disk Drive


0013-9239

This printer features a hard disk drive, which provides the following functions.
- Early release of the host computer
- Error recovery
- Job preservation
- Preserved job print
- Job queue handling

1) Early release of the host computer


Each print job received from the host computer is preserved to the hard disk drive attached to the printer, so the printer can proceed with independent printing,
releasing the host computer before the print job completes.

2) Error recovery
If a print job aborts as a result of any print problem, such as a paper jam or insufficient paper, the printer reloads the print job stored on the hard disk so it can resume
the print job without having to retransmit the job from the host computer to it.

3) Job preservation
Print jobs are in the common box, a place of temporary data storage, and in the personal box, a place of permanent data storage.
Normal print jobs are stored in the common box as they are received. Due to the limited hard disk space available, jobs stored in the common box are deleted from
the oldest one in sequence.
Print jobs can be simply stored in the personal box without printing. Print jobs stored in the common box can be moved to the personal box.

4) Preserved job handling


Print jobs stored in the personal box or common box can be printed from the operation panel.

5) Job queue handling


Multiple jobs queued for print can be handled. including the raising priority order of selected jobs in the queue or canceling selected print jobs.

2.3 Printer Mechanical System

2.3.1 Outline

2.3.1.1 Outline
0012-6326

The printer mechanism is broken down into two broad sections: ink passage and paper passage.
The ink passage consists primarily of the carriage unit[2] that houses ink tanks[1] and a printhead, purge unit[3] and maintenance cartridge[4], and supplies, which
circulates, sucks and otherwise handles inks.
The paper passage consists of mechanical components, such as the paper feed unit[5], which is designed to feed, convey and deliver paper in two ways.
A summary description of each mechanical component of the printer is given below.

0012-6328

The ink passage comprises ink tanks, a printheads, caps, a maintenance jet tray, a maintenance cartridge, ink tubes interconnecting the mechanical components of
the printer, and a suction pump that is driven to suck inks. It supplies, circulates, sucks and otherwise handles inks.
The ink passage (per color) is schematically shown below, along with the ink flow.

a) Supplying inks from the ink tanks to the ink supply valve assembly
The ink tanks each contain ink to feed the printhead.
Head differences allow the inks to flow from the ink tanks to the subtanks first, then to the ink supply valves.
Air is discharged through the air passage of the subtanks to keep the internal pressure of the ink tanks constant.

b) Supplying inks from the ink supply valves to the printhead


The ink stored in an ink tank flows to the printhead when the suction pipe is driven with the ink supply valve opened and the head capped.

c) Supplying inks while printing


The ink supply valves are kept open while printing, so that ink is constantly flowing to the printhead under the negative pressure of the nozzle assembly which is
caused by the discharging inks.
Furthermore, waste inks sucked in the cleaning operation and inks from the maintenance jet tray flow into the maintenance cartridge.

Opening all the ink passages (by opening both the ink supply valve and the printhead fixer lever with an ink tank yet to be installed) while an ink tube is being filled
with ink could cause the ink in the ink tube to flow backwards due to a head pressure difference, causing leakage through the hollow needle in the ink tank.
As a precaution, never open all the ink passages at the same time while the ink tubes are being filled with inks.

d) Ink agitating
Ink will be agitated to prevent the element of the pigment ink from subsiding in the ink tank and the sub-tank.
The valve motor drive is transmitted to the agitation cam, the agitation fin in the sub-tank rotates and ink in the sub-tank will be agitated. In addition, ink flows
backward by moving the piston under the needle(ink supply) up and down in the ink tank, and ink in the ink tank will be agitated.

2-10
Chapter 2

2.3.2.2 Ink Tank Unit


2.3.2.2.1 Structure of Ink Tank Unit
0012-6329

a) Ink tanks
The ink level in each ink tank is memorized in EEPROM attached to the tank and is detected as a dot count on the basis of the EEPROM information.
When an electrode attached to a hollow needle detects no continuity, it displays a message reporting that the ink tank is nearly empty.
If the dot count reaches a predesigned value in this state, an ink out condition is assumed.

b) Ink port
Depressing the ink tank fixer lever on the printer would cause would cause a hollow needle to pierce the ink tank port sealed by a rubber plug, linking the ink passage
of the ink to the printer.

c) Air passage
Depressing the ink tank fixer lever on the printer would cause an open hollow needle to pierce the air passage sealed by a rubber plug releasing the internal pressure
of the ink tank to keep it constant.

d) Notches for preventing incorrect installation


Ink tanks are furnished with a notch for preventing incorrect installation.
If the installation of an ink tank in incorrect position is attempted, the notch would interfere with it, preventing its installation.
The ink tank fixer lever won't lower without the ink tank fully inserted to reach the mounting position, so the ink cannot be supplied.

e) Subtank
The subtank installed under each ink tank complements the work of the ink tank, agitating the ink in the tank.
If the ink tank runs out of the ink while printing, the ink stored in the subtank is available, allowing the ink tank to be replaced without having to stop printing.

f) Ink supply valves


Ink tank supply valves are located halfway between the ink tanks and the ink tubes. These valves prevent the leakage of inks that might otherwise be caused by the
opening of the ink tubes on the side of the ink tanks during their replacement.
The ink supply valves are caused to open and close by the valve open/close mechanism that is activated by driving the valve motors.
The ink tank unit consists of tank bases each are organized into one group of six colors, and six-color ink tubes.
The color-specific ink supply valves will open and close at the same time for all colors.

2.3.2.3 Carriage Unit


2.3.2.3.1 Functions of Carriage Unit
0024-9588

a) Printhead mounting function


The carriage, which fixes the printhead in position mechanically, is connected to the contacts of the head relay PCB.

b) Control function
The carriage carries a carriage relay PCB, which relays drive signals from the main controller PCB, a head relay PCB, which relays printhead drive signals to the
printhead, a linear encoder, which generates print timing signals, and a multi sensor, which detects the width of paper and skews in it, adjusts is registration and the
head height.
The carriage relay PCB is connected to the main controller PCB by a flexible cable.

c) Carriage drive function


The carriage is moved over the platen by means of the carriage belt that is driven by the power imparted from the carriage motor.

d) Printhead maintenance function


This printer performs cleaning operations, such as wiping the printhead and sucking inks, with the carriage halted at its home position.

e) Nozzle check function


This printer carries out an ink discharge operation with the carriage halted at the head management sensor, locating a non-discharging nozzle in the printhead.

f) Carriage height adjustment function


If the separation between the face of the printhead and the paper (carriage height) is varied as a result of differing paper thicknesses, crooked or curled paper or
other problems, the printer is liable to generate excess mist as the carriage height increases or to result in head rubbing as the carriage height decreases.
To maintain an acceptable carriage height, the lift motor is driven according to the selected paper type, feeding method, print conditions (borderless printing/prior-
itized picture quality) , environmental condition(temperature/humidity) and multi sensor measurements to automatically adjust the separation between the face of
the printhead and the paper

The table below shows the relation between the media type and the height of the head.

T-2-1

1.4 Photopaper, Synthetic paper, Film, Plain paper(Line drawing) Capping position
1.8 Coated paper(Line drawing)
2.0 Plain paper, Coated paper, Fabric banner
2.2 Premium matte paper, Fine art(watercolor,block print)
2.6 Canvas

g) Paper leading edge detection function/paper width detection function/skew detection function
The multi sensor attached to the lower left part of the carriage detects the leading edge and width of paper feeding on the platen and any skews in it.

h) Automatic printhead position adjustment function


The multi sensor attached to the lower left part of the carriage reads an adjustment pattern printed on a form and adjusts the print timing of each printhead automat-
ically.

i) Remaining roll media detection function


The printer prints a bar code on roll media upon installation of the roll media. The multi sensor attached to the lower left part of the carriage detects the remaining
roll length.

j) Internal unit temperature sensor


A thermistor installed on the head relay PCB detects the internal unit temperature near the printhead.

2.3.2.3.2 Structure of Carriage Unit


0028-6252

a) Printhead mount
The printhead is secured to the carriage by the printhead fixer cover and the printhead fixer lever.
When the printhead is secured to the carriage, the signal contact of the head relay PCB is pressed against that of the printhead to convey print signals.
Furthermore, the ink passage from the ink tanks is connected to the printhead via the ink tubes.

b) Ink port
Ink is supplied to the printhead via an ink tube, which is connected to ink joints, and runs between the tube guides to reach the carriage and follow its movement.

c) Controller
The Carriage relay PCB is connected to the head relay PCB by means of a short flexible cable.
The flexible cable between the main controller and the carriage relay PCB follows up the motion of the carriage together with the tube guide.
A photocoupler encoder mounted in the lower part of the back of the carriage detects a linear scale reading as the carriage moves.

d) Carriage drive
Mechanical misregistrations in the vertical/horizontal and bidirectional print positions of the printhead mounted can be corrected by selecting Adjust Printer from
the main menu to shift the print timing.
A DC-operated carriage motor drives the carriage reciprocally on the platen by way of the carriage belt.
The carriage home position, or the capping position, is detected by the sensor flag on the right side of the carriage and the photointerrupter-based carriage HP sensor
on the right side of the printer. When the linear scale position is set as a reference home position for use in subsequent position control operations, the carriage motor
is driven by a control signal generated from the main controller PCB.

e) Printhead maintenance unit


This printer cleans the printhead with the carriage halted at its home position.
Wiping takes place through the rotation of the motor.
Wiper blades mounted on the carriage wipe the printhead while the carriage is halted at its home position.
Wet wiping is carried out for added wiping removal performance, whereby the wiper blades are moistened with glycerin as they are pressed against an absorber
impregnated with glycerin.
Maintenance jet ejection is carried out on the cap, at the maintenance jet tray, borderless printing ink tray and on the paper surface.
A suction operation is carried out by a suction cap in the purge unit.

f) Carriage height adjustment unit


The head height is adjusted with the carriage halted at its home position.
The lift motor is driven to rotate the lift shaft within the carriage, in sync with which the lift cams on both sides of the carriage move the head holder up and down,
thereby varying the separation between the face of the printhead and the paper.

2-14
Chapter 2

The printhead height is detected from the lift cam sensor within the carriage and the distance of rotation of the lift motor.

g) Multi sensor
The multi sensor attached to the lower left part of the carriage consists of four LEDs and four light-receiving sensors to detect the leading edges and width of paper
and skews in it, and to adjust its registration and head height.
The multi sensor reference has the white plate attached to it, so that a reference value can be calculated during carriage height measurement by measuring the in-
tensity of light reflected upon the white plate.
(Service mode: SERVICE MODE>ADJUST>GAP CALIB)

h) Rail cleaner
The shaft cleaner located in the right rear of the carriage helps keep the main rail clean.

2.3.2.5 Purge Unit


2.3.2.5.1 Functions of Purge Unit
0012-6344

To maintain high print quality, the purge unit performs maintenance of the nozzles of the printhead.
The purge unit supports a capping function, cleaning function, and ink supply function.

a) Capping function
The capping function presses the cap of the purge unit against the face plate on the nozzle section of the printhead to prevent nozzle drying and dust adhesion.
Capping is performed when printing is complete, at the start of the suction operation, and when switching to the standby state due to an error.
The capping function also establishes the ink passage between the printhead and purge unit.

b) Cleaning function
The cleaning function restores the printhead to the state where ink can be easily discharged from nozzles. This function includes the following three types of oper-
ations.

- Wiping operation
This operation is performed to remove paper fibers and dried ink from the face plate.

- Pumping operation
This operation is performed to remove ink from the nozzles and fill the nozzles with fresh ink.

- Maintenance jet operation


This operation is performed to spray ink from the nozzles to the cap, the borderless ink jet tray, and on paper to remove bubbles in the nozzles and dust and other
foreign particles.
c) Ink supply function
The suction pump of the purge unit operates together with the ink supply valve to supply ink to the printhead during the initial filling and ink level adjustment.

a) Caps
The caps cap the nozzle assembly in the left printhead during capping and cleaning. The part of the caps that comes into contact with the face plate of the nozzle
assembly is made of rubber. Two caps are in position to meet each of the printheads mounted on the carriage (six trains of nozzles).
The caps are activated to protect the nozzle assembly on capping. When the carriage moves to the home position , the caps are elevated by the cap cam that is driven
by the capping motor, capping the nozzle assembly to protect it.
These caps cap the nozzle assembly to suck inks from the printhead by means of the suction pump.

b) Wipers
The wipers are driven by the purge motor to wipe the six trains of nozzles in the nozzle assembly in the printhead simultaneously.
A pair of wiper blades are in position to ensure wiping performance. The wiping operation operates on a slide wiping basis, sliding the wiper blades via wiper cams
through the normal rotation of the purge motor.
Wiping is executed by the wiper blades moving at a constant speed to the front of the printer after the end of a print or suction operation.
A wiper blade set perpendicularly to the head wipes the entire face of the printhead, followed by a narrower blade wiping the nozzle assembly.
The wiper blades are cleaned before they are replaced at the wiping position after wiping to preserve wiping performance.
Wiper blade cleaning is carried out by scraping off the inks that have been wiped off from the head with an ink scraper linked to the maintenance cartridge, then
wiping the blades with a blade cleaner.
Wet wiping is carried out for added wiping removal performance, whereby the wiper blades are moistened with glycerin as they are pressed against an absorber
impregnated with glycerin. The quantity of glycerin used is managed by counting the number of times the wiper blades have been pressed against the absorber.
When this count falls to equal any of the following values, either a replacement warning (continued print available) or replacement required indication (service call
error) is issued.

2.3.2.6 Maintenance Cartridge


2.3.2.6.1 Maintenance Cartridge
0012-6346

a) Maintenance cartridge
The maintenance cartridge holds as much about 1200 mL of used inks (about 1280 g: including the evaporation of moisture from the used inks).

b) Used maintenance cartridge ink detection


Used maintenance cartridge ink detection is monitored with regard to a dot count.
When the quantity of the used ink reaches about 960 mL (about 1024 g, 80% of the cartridge capacity), the warning message "Check maint cartridge capacity" is
displayed to tell that the maintenance cartridge is nearly full.
Printing may continue even when the warning message is displayed.
When the quantity of the used ink reaches about 1200 mL (about 1280 g, 100% of the cartridge capacity), a replacement prompt error message is displayed, telling
that the maintenance cartridge is full.
When the printer determines that the maintenance cartridge is full, it shuts down even while it is printing.
The printer will remain inoperable until the maintenance cartridge is replaced.

MEMO:
The maintenance cartridge houses EEPROM, so that main controller PCB can control the status of the maintenance cartridge by writing to and reading from the
EEPROM content.
There is no need to initialize the counter information, therefore, when the maintenance cartridge is replaced.

2.3.3.2 Paper Path


2.3.3.2.1 Structure of Feed Roller Unit
0024-9813

a) Paper feed assembly


The paper feed assembly consists of paper feeding mechanisms, such as a feed roller that is driven by the feed motor and a pinch roller unit that follows up the
motion of the feed roller.
Paper feeds horizontally under the printheads on the carriage as it is kept level on the platen to prevent cockle.

b) Sensors
The paper feed assembly includes sensors for detecting the status of paper feeding and that of the mechanical components that make up the paper passage.
For more details, see TECHNICAL REFERENCE > Detection Functions with Sensors.

c) Roll media pick-up drive unit


When the roll media feeds, the roll media pick-up pressure clutch 1 turns on to actuate the torque limiter in the pick-up drive unit. Thus the back tension works to

F-2-35
Head management sensor
The photo-transmission-type sensor detects that the printhead is discharging ink.
The carriage moves to and stops at the detection positions for individual nozzle arrays. When the carriage is at a stop, nozzles discharge ink on after another.
The sensor detects each nozzle due to the voltage change caused when ink discharged from the nozzle blocks the sensor light.

Non-discharging nozzle detection is carried out at the following timings:


- After the execution of Cleaning 1, Cleaning 2, Cleaning 3, Cleaning 6 or Cleaning 10
- After the number of copies that has been set by the user menu choice Nozzle Check Frequency have been printed

If more than a specified number of non-discharging nozzles have been located in one session of non-discharging nozzle detection, the normal cleaning sequence is
launched before a second session of non-discharging nozzle detection is conducted. If more than a specified number of non-discharging nozzles are located in the
second session of non-discharging nozzle detection, the normal (High) cleaning session is launched before a third session of non-discharging nozzle detection is
conducted.
If there are at least 320 non-discharging nozzles out of 2560 nozzles as the result of non-discharging nozzle detection, printing is canceled after displaying a message
to replace the head.
However, if service mode: [SERVICE MODE] > [SETTING] > [HEAD DOT INF] is [ON], the following message appears.
If there are at least 30 nozzles unable to correct the non-discharging state and the number of non-discharging nozzles is less than 100 out of 2,560 nozzles as the
result of non-discharging nozzle detection, printing can continue after displaying a message to check the printing. Also, if the number of non-discharging nozzles
is at least 100 but less than 320 nozzles, printing can continue after displaying a message to check the head. And if there are at least 320 non-discharging nozzles,
printing is canceled after displaying a message to replace the head.

This sensor is a photointerrupter-based sensor. After the sensor light is shielded by the flag, the lift motor is driven by a predetermined number of pulses to regulate
the separation between the printheads and platen automatically.

Ambient temperature sensor


The thermostat-based ambient temperature sensor mounted on the head relay PCB detects the ambient temperature to which the carriage is exposed.
The resistance of the thermistor that varies as a function of temperature changes in the printer is transmitted to the main controller via the carriage relay PCB.
The ambient temperature is used to help calibrate the head temperature sensor and detect abnormal ambient temperatures.
Head temperature sensor
The head temperature sensor detects the temperature of the printhead.
The printhead temperature is transmitted to the main controller via the carriage relay PCB.
The printhead temperature is used to help control the head drive and detect abnormal printhead temperatures.

Chapter 2

Multi sensor
The photo-reflection-type multi sensor is composed of four LEDs and four light-sensitive sensors. It detects the leading edge, skewing, and width of media and is
used for adjustment of the registration, head height, and color calibration.
During head adjustment, the light reflected by the GAP LED is detected by two light-sensitive sensors (GAP-Far, GAP-Near) )to calculate the head height from the
difference between the measurements.
When color calibration is executed, the light reflected from the printed color chart by the the three-colors LED (red, blue, green) is detected by the light-sensitive
sensor (COLOR-SNS), so the color correction is implemented on the basis of the readings.
During media detection, the light reflected by the diffuse reflection LED and regular reflection LED and the three-colors LED (red, blue, green) are detected by the
light-sensitive sensors (EDGE-SNS, COLOR-SNS).
Ink mist adhering to the sensor could deliver incorrect measurement readings when color calibration is executed. If the ink dot count exceeds a tolerance, the service
error (E194-4034) would occur. If it does, execute service mode: SERVICE MODE > ADJUST > GAP CALIB. after the multisensor has been replaced to clear
the dot count.

3.1.1.1 Transporting the Printer


0028-9785

When transporting the printer, the printhead must be capped and stay in the carriage.
In spite of this precaution, shocks incurred during transportation can damage the printhead.
Print the nozzle check pattern before making preparations for transporting the printer, pint the nozzle check pattern again after installing the printer at the new lo-
cation, and then compare the two printouts.
If any problem such as nozzle clogging cannot be resolved by printhead cleaning, replace the printhead with a new one.

This section describes how to transport the printer.


The procedure depends on the mode of transportation. Select the appropriate transportation level from the following transportation modes.
1. Transportation mode
- Moving the printer on the same floor with no difference in grade (without tilting the printer): LEVEL 0
- Moving the printer on floor where there is difference in grade or by truck (by tilting the printer): LEVEL 1
- Moving the printer by plane or ship (tilting direction of printer is unpredictable): LEVEL 2
- Moving the printer in low temperature environment such as sub zero: LEVEL 2
- Moving the printer on its end: LEVEL 3

4.3.13 PCBs
0023-3347

Do not replace the main controller PCB and the maintenance cartridge relay PCB (ROM board) at the same time.
Both PCBs hold vital information, such as settings and a carriage drive time. Before either PCB is replaced, such information is temporarily saved through internal
communication with the other PCB and is automatically written to the new PCB when it is installed. For this reason, the two PCBs cannot be replaced at the same
time. To replace both PCBs, work in order of (a) > (b).
When the main controller PCB and maintenance cartridge relay PCB have been replaced with service parts, check that the latest version of firmware is installed in
them.

4.5 Adjustment and Setup Items

4.5.1 Adjustment Item List


0023-5489

The following adjustment procedures need to be performed when parts have been replaced or removed and then reinstalled:

Adjustment item Adjustment timing


Multi sensor recalibration Multi sensor replacement/removal
Carriage unit replacement/removal
Adjusting feed roller eccentricity Feed roller
Feed roller encoder
Head management sensor recalibration Head management sensor replacement/removal
Carriage unit replacement/removal
Carriage motor recalibration Carriage unit replacement/removal
Carriage motor replacement/removal

4.5.2 Procedure after Replacing the Carriage Unit or Multi Sensor


0025-0406

a) Note on replacing the carriage unit and the multi sensor


- The multi sensor reference plate(QL2-8099: MOUNT, SENSOR ADJUSTING) must be replaced at the same time whenever the carriage or the multi sensor is
being replaced.

b) Multi Sensor Recalibration


Because the distance between the multi sensor (in the carriage unit) and the nozzles (in each printhead) is varied from one unit to another, the printer has its optical
axis corrected and paper gap adjustment sensor gain and calibration adjusted prior to shipment. When the carriage unit or multi sensor has been replaced, they
should require adjustment.

Execute service mode under the following conditions to launch automatic adjustment:

1) Optical axis correction


- Service mode : SERVICE MODE > ADJUST > PRINT PATTERN > OPTICAL AXIS
Media type : Photo glossy paper
Media size : Media having a width equal toor larger then that of A2-size paper

2) Paper gap adjustment


- Service mode: SERVICE MODE > ADJUST > GAP CALIB.

c) Carriage Motor Adjustment


- After the carriage and carriage motor and carriage belt and linear encoder sensor has been removed or replaced, execute the following service mode.
Service mode: SERVICE MODE > ADJUST > CR MOTOR COG

4.5.3 Procedure after Replacing the Feed Roller or Feed Roller Encoder
0012-6594

Feed roller eccentricity is factory-adjusted (correction of variation in the paper feed amount per rotation). It is necessary to adjust feed roller eccentricity after re-
placing the feed roller encoder or feed roller.
In the service mode, perform automatic adjustment of feed roller eccentricity.

Service mode : SERVICE MODE > ADJUST > PRINT PATTERN > LF TUNING
Media type : Photo glossy paper

If adjustment cannot be done properly by selecting "SERVICE MODE > ADJUST > PRINT PATTERN > LF TUNING" (auto adjustment), carry out manual ad-
justment.

Service mode SERVICE MODE > ADJUST > PRINT PATTERN > LF TUNING2
Media type: Gloss photo paper
Check the printed pattern and enter values for adjustment.

4.5.4 Procedure after Replacing the Head Management Sensor


0013-7146

Since the distance between the head management sensor and the carriage unit varies among printers, the optical axis is factory-adjusted to adjust the non-discharging
detection position. When you have replaced the head management sensor or performed assembly/reassembly of surrounding parts that can change the distance be-
tween the head management sensor and the carriage unit, readjustment is required
Perform the readjustment in the service mode.

Service mode : SERVICE MODE > ADJUST > NOZZLE CHK POS.

Troubles subject to troubleshooting are classified into those shown on the display (warning, error, and service call) and those not shown on the display.
The code of warning and error is shown by combining alphanumeric characters of eight digits and four digits.
The code of service call error is shown by the initial character of "E" and combining alphanumeric characters of three digits and four digits.
No code number is displayed when a warning occurs. Selecting [SERVICE MODE] > [DISPLAY] > [WARNING] in service mode allows you to check the warning
log.

2. Precautions for Troubleshooting


1) Check the environmental conditions and the media used for printing.
2) Before performing troubleshooting, make sure that all connectors and cables are connected properly.
3) When servicing the printer with the external cover removed and the AC power supplied, be extremely careful to avoid electric shock and shorting electrical
devices.
4) In the following sections, the troubleshooting steps are described such that the component related to the most probable cause of the problem will be repaired or
replaced first, being followed by components with less problem probability. If multiple components have the same problem probability, the steps are described
beginning with the easiest one.
After performing each step, check to see if the problem has been resolved by making test prints. If the problem persists, proceed to the next step.
5) After completion of the troubleshooting, check that all connectors and cables have been reconnected and screws have been tightened firmly.
6) Whenever you have performed replacement or repair services, make test prints to check whether the problem has been resolved.

1. Checking "OUTPUT 0" and "OUTPUT 1" when media (excluding clear film) is fed
[Check 1]
Check whether the multi sensor performance has degraded or whether the media is compatible with the multi sensor.

When "Media edge (diffuse reflection) gain" and "Media edge (diffuse reflection) current value" are maximum values and "Media edge (diffuse reflection) media
output" is 186 or less, an error occurs.
Maximum value of "Media edge (diffuse reflection)" gain: 255
Maximum value of "Media edge (diffuse reflection)" current value: 320

When the multi sensor and media are normal, the following values are displayed:

Media edge (diffuse reflection) Media edge (diffuse reflection) Media edge (diffuse reflection)
gain current value media output
Plain paper About 10-35 About 200 About 500-600
Glossy paper About 8-25
Tracing paper About 30-100

[Check 2]
Check whether the multi sensor performance has degraded or whether the media is compatible with the multi sensor.

When the difference between "Media edge (diffuse reflection) gain" and "Media edge (diffuse reflection) platen output" is 100 or less, an error occurs.
When the multi sensor and media are normal, the difference is about 300-600.

[Check 3]
Check the effect of external diffuse light.

When the difference between "Media edge (diffuse reflection) external light output" and "Media edge (diffuse reflection) platen output" is 500 or more, the effect
of diffuse light is judged as being great.
When the effect is normal, the difference is about 50-300.

[Check 4]
Check whether the media is compatible.

When the result of "Media edge (regular reflection) gain"x"Media edge (regular reflection) current value" is five times as large as the result of "Media edge (diffuse
reflection) gain"x"Media edge (diffuse reflection) current value", the media is judged as being incompatible with the multi sensor.
If the media is compatible, the result is about 0.5 to 1.5 times for plain/glossy paper; about 1-3 times for tracing paper.

[Check 5]
Check whether the media is compatible.

When the result of "Media edge (diffuse reflection) gain"x"Media edge (diffuse reflection) current value" is in one of the following, the media may be incompatible
with the multi sensor.
- Nine or more times as large as that of plain paper (normally, 2000-7000)
- Ten or more times as large as that of glossy paper (normally, 1600-5000)
- Three or more times as large as that of tracing paper (normally, 6000-20000)

2. Checking "OUTPUT 0" when clear film is fed


[Check 1]
Check whether the multi sensor performance has degraded or whether the media is compatible.
When the "Media edge (regular reflection) gain" and "Media edge (regular reflection) current value" are maximum values and "Media edge (regular reflection)
media output" is 186 or less, an error occurs.
Maximum value of "media edge (regular reflection)" gain: 255
Maximum value of "media edge (regular reflection)" current value: 320

When the multi sensor and media are normal, the following values are displayed:

Media edge (regular Media edge (regular Media edge (regular


reflection) gain reflection) current value reflection) media output
Clear film About 10-60 About 200 About 500-600

[Check 2]
Check whether the multi sensor performance has degraded or whether the media is compatible.

When the difference between "Media edge (regular reflection) gain" and "Media edge (regular reflection) platen output" is 100 or less, an error occurs.
When the multi sensor and media are normal, the difference is about 250-500.

[Check 3]
Check the effect of external diffuse light.

When the difference between "Media edge (regular reflection) external light output" and "Media edge (regular reflection) platen output" is 500 or more, the effect
of diffuse light is judged as being great.
When the effect is normal, the difference is about 50-300.

3. Checking "OUTPUT 2/OUTPUT 3" and "OUTPUT 4/OUTPUT 5/OUTPUT 6"


[Check 1]
Check whether the multi sensor performance has degraded or whether the media is compatible.
When "GAP gain" and "GAP current value" are maximum values and "GAP media output" is 93 or less, an error occurs.
Maximum value of "GAP gain": 255

7-19
Chapter 7

Maximum value of "GAP current value": 320

When the multi sensor and media are normal, "GAP gain" is about 30-250; "GAP current value" is about 200.

[Check 2]
Check whether the multi sensor performance has degraded or whether the media is compatible.
When "Density gain" and "Density current value" are maximum values and "Density media output" is 168 or less, an error occurs.
Maximum value of "Density gain": 255
Maximum value of "Density current value": 245

When the multi sensor performance and media are normal, "Density gain" is about 5-100; "Density current value" is about 200.

7.1.4 e-Maintenance/imageWARE Remote


0023-1100

1. Overview
The e-Maintenance/imageWARE Remote system allows a customer's device information and status to be monitored via the Internet on a server called the UGW
(Universal Gateway) Server.

The following device information/ statuses can be monitored.


- Service mode counters
- Parts counters
- Mode counters
- Firmware information
- Service call errors log
- Jam log
- Alarm log
- Alert change statuses (Toner/ ink low/ out, etc.)

Device monitor information above is sent by the e-RDS (embedded Remote Diagnostic System), which is embedded in the devices.

Further, as the above is all customer information, https SOAP protocol is used for communication between the UGW and the device, providing enhanced security
(SSL client communication)

2. Feature and benefits
Device (e-RDS) embedded with network module can realize a front-end processing of the e-Maintenance/imageWARE Remote system without attaching an extra
hardware equipment.
The e-Maintenance/imageWARE Remote system can be implemented without imposing a burden on the users.

3. Settings procedures
3.1 Advance preparations
To monitor the device with e-Maintenance/imageWARE Remote, the following settings are required.
1) Advance confirmation
Check with the UGW administrator whether the printer to be connected to the e-Maintenance/imageWARE remotely has been registered in the UGW.
2) Advance preparations
Interview the user's system administrator in advance to find out the following information about the network.

Information item -1
IP address setting methods
Check whether automatic setting or manual setting is to be used, and confirm the information below.
- Automatic setting: (DHCP, RARP, BOOTP) (ON/OFF selection)
or
- Manual setting: IP address, subnet mask and gateway address to be set

Information item -2
Is there a DNS server in use?
If there is a DNS server in use, find out the following.
- Primary DNS server address
- Secondary DNS server address (optional)

Information item -3
Is there a proxy server?
If there is a proxy server in use, find out the following.
- Proxy server address
- Port number connected to proxy server

Information item -4
Is proxy server authentication required?
If proxy server authentication is required, find out the following.
- User name and password required for proxy authentication

3) Network settings
Make the network settings based on the information obtained in "2) Advance preparations."
Network settings are made in user mode. Therefore, it is assumed that the user has already set it. However, there are a few cautions as described below, and if
necessary, there may be cases in which the service technicians do it after obtaining an approval from user.
Caution point -1
Proxy server settings
Proxy server settings cannot be made in "Remote UI". Enter from the operation panel menu. In addition, the operation panel menu items for proxy server only appear
when e-RDS functions are enabled. Therefore, when you make proxy server settings, turn the "E-RDS SWITCH" setting to "ON" as described in later sections
beforehand.

7.2 Special Mode

7.2.1 Special Modes for Servicing


0023-3043

This printer supports the following special modes in addition to the service mode:

- PCB replacement mode


- Download mode
- Counter display mode

1. PCB replacement mode


This mode is used when replacing the main PCB or MC relay PCB.
By executing this mode,
- Backup data of the settings and counter values stored in the MC relay PCB are moved to the new main PCB.
- The data such as the settings and counter values are copied to the MC relay PCB.

a) Entering the PCB replacement mode


Follow the same procedure as that for entering the service mode.
(With the [Load] button and [Navigate] button pressed down, turn on the [Power] button.)
When the printer starts up, compare the serial number memorized in the main PCB's EEPROM with that memorized in the MC relay PCB's EEPROM. If they do
not match, or no serial number is memorized in either EEPROM, enter the PCB replacement mode.

b) Procedure
Select "CPU BOARD" or "MC BOARD" using the [ ] and [ ] buttons, and then press the [OK] button to determine it.

- CPU BOARD
Select this after replacing the main PCB.
The data in the MC relay PCB is copied to the main PCB.

- MC BOARD
Select this before replacing the MC relay PCB.
The data in the main controller PCB is copied to the MC relay PCB.

c) Exiting the PCB replacement mode


Turning off the [Power] button of the printer allows you to exit the PCB replacement mode.

For details on how to replace the PCB, see DISASSEMBLY/REASSEMBLY > Points to Note on Disassembly and Reassembly > PCBs.

2. Download mode
Use this mode only when updating the firmware without performing initialization.
This mode can update the firmware even if the printhead and ink tanks have not been installed to the printer.

Reference:
For instruction on how to update the main controller, refer to "TROUBLESHOOTING" > "Version Up".

a) Entering the download mode


1) Turning off the [Power] button of the printer.
2) With the [Stop] and [Navigate] buttons pressed down, turn on the [Power] button of the printer.
* Keep pressing the above buttons until "Initializing" appears on the display.
b) Procedure
When "Download Mode/Send Firmware" is shown on the display, transfer the firmware.
When downloading of the firmware is completed, the printer is turned off automatically.

3. Counter display mode


Use this mode to view only printer counter information.

a) Invoking counter display mode


1) Press the [MENU] button to keep [Printer Info] > [System Info] selected.
2) Press the [ ] button whole holding down the [MENU] button + [OK] button to invoke counter display mode.

b) How to view counter display mode


- S/N: Unit serial number
- CNT: Number of copies printed in A4 terms (unit: copies)

8.1 Outline

8.1.1 Outline
0023-3204

The printer indicates errors using the display and LEDs.


If an error occurs during printing, the printer status is also displayed on the status monitor of the printer driver.
The following three types of errors are displayed on the display:

- Warning
Status where the print operation can be continued without remedying the cause of the problem. This can, however, adversely affect the printing results.

- Error
Status where the print operation is stopped, and the regular operation cannot be recovered until the cause of the problem is remedied.

- Service call error


When a service call error occurs, the error is not cleared and the error indication remains on the operation panel even if the printer is powered off and on again.
(Occurrence of the service call error is indicated again at power-on.)
This measure is taken to prevent user's recovery of the service call error and damages to the printer.
Service call errors can be cleared, however, by starting up the printer in the service mode.

Note that some of the warnings, errors, and service call error described in the following tables may not appear in this printer.
In addition, the message that appears on the screen may not be the same as what is described in the table.

The first 4 digits of Warning and Error code show the following description.
