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 reference 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 cover, and
closing the delivery unit cover, 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 communicated 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.

Using analog video signals (RGB) from the cleaning/static elimination.
CCD, video signals are generated for each
process color (YMCK) to drive a semiconductor
laser.
A laser beam is directed to the appropriate
photosensitive drum to develop the image
representing the corresponding process color (of
toner; complementary to the corresponding filter)
for transfer to paper; the step is executed alike for
Y, M, C, and K.
The resulting image is fixed to the paper,
producing a color copy of the original.
The CLC1000 uses four photosensitive drums
for transfer of images to paper, and a transfer belt
is used to ensure that paper is moved horizontally
under each photosensitive drum for transfer.

Figure 2-203

The potential on the transfer belt differs between areas in contact with paper and areas not in contact.
To maintain an even potential and, thereby, to increase the efficiency of cleaning performed in the next step,
the belt is grounded by means of a grounding roller.

specific value so that the image of the original may be read in response to a press on the Start key. Writing
of the image on the surface of the photosensitive drum becomes ready when the image signals have been
stored in memory. (Image formation starts in relation to a registration signal.)
Control in relation to signals other than the registration signal is discussed using separate timing charts.

C. Scanner Motor

1. Outline
Figure 3-205 shows the circuit used to control the scanner motor, and the circuit has the following
functions:
1 Controls the direction of rotation of the scanner motor.
2 Controls the speed of rotation of the scanner motor.
The scanner motor changes its direction of rotation between when the scanner moves forward and
when it moves in reverse, and its speed of rotation varies according to the selected reproduction ratio.
Its speed of rotation when the scanner is moved in reverse is the same regardless of the selected
reproduction ratio. It rotates about 10 times as fast as when the scanner is moved forward in Direct.

2. Operation
The CPU (Q651) on the scanner motor driver PCB receives mode, distance, and reproduction data from
the image processor PCB. Then, in response to the start command, it sends drive pulses to the scanner
motor to suit these data units. The scanner motor is a 5-phase stepping motor; the direction and the speed of
scanning are varied by changing the order of the drive pulses (A through E) and the frequency.
To rotate the motor at a high speed when the scanner is moved in reverse, the drive voltage switching
circuit switches the power used to drive the motor from 8 V (forward) to 24 V (reverse).
The constant current control circuit controls the current flowing to the motor to a constant current to suit
the speed of rotation.
The circuit cuts the current to the motor by the HOLD-OFF signal while the motor remains at rest during
standby to prevent heating of the motor.

D. Changing the Reproduction Ratio


The reproduction ratio in the main scanning direction (drum axis) is changed by skipping the image
signals when writing them to line memory (reduction) or repeating them when reading from line memory
(enlargement).
The reproduction ratio in the sub scanning direction is changed by moving the mirror mount fast
(reduction) or slowly (enlargement).

E. Controlling the Intensity of the Scanning Lamp


1. Outline
Figure 3-207 shows the circuit used to control the intensity of the scanning lamp, and the circuit has the
following functions:
1.Turns ON/OFF the scanning lamp.
2.Checks ON/OFF state of the scanning lamp.
3.Controls the intensity of the scanning lamp.
• The circuit controls the scanning lamp so that the intensity is kept to a specific level against
fluctuations in voltage.

2. Operations
a. Turning ON/OFF the Scanning Lamp
The lamp regulator drive circuit turns OFF when LAON=0, causing the intensity control circuit and then
the scanning lamp (LA5) to turn OFF.
When LAON=1, the lamp regulator drive circuit turns ON to activate the intensity control circuit, thereby
turning ON the scanning lamp (LA5).

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

b. Checking ON/OFF of the Scanning Lamp


When the scanning lamp (LA5) is ON, the lamp ON detection circuit remains ON at all times sending the
ON detection signal to the timer circuit.
If the scanning lamp remains ON for about 50 sec or more because of an error, the timer circuit activates
the relay drive circuit to turn on the relay (RL1). This condition cuts the AC input and turns OFF the scanning
lamp; at the same time, the lamp error signal (LAERR) is sent to the reader controller PCB, indicating ‘E220’
on the control panel.
When the relay has activated, remove the cause and turn OFF/ON the power switch to reset.
The CLC1000 is equipped with the following two types of protection functions to prevent malfunction of
the scanning lamp:
• If the temperature inside the thermal switch exceeds 175°C, the thermal switch turns OFF to cut the
power to the scanning lamp.
• If an overcurrent flows because of a short-circuit around the scanning lamp, the fuse turns OFF,
thereby cutting off the power to the lamp regulator.

The thermal switch (TP6) is used on a DC line, and its contact is subject to damage upon ac-
tivation. Do not re-use it once it became activated; otherwise, its operation will be unpredict-
able.

c. Controlling the Intensity of the Scanning Lamp


The intensity of the scanning lamp is determined by the level of the intensity adjustment signal (LINT)
from the image processor PCB.
The intensity control circuit inside the lamp regulator sends pulse signals (PWM) suited to the LINT
signal to the switching circuit, which keeps turning ON and OFF at very short intervals.
The current to the scanning lamp is controlled by varying the ON/OFF intervals, ultimately controlling the
lamp intensity.
The level of the LINT signal is determined when ‘AUTO-ADJ’ under ‘CCD’ of ‘FUNC’ in service mode is
executed; thereafter, it remains the same at all times. Be sure to execute ‘AUTO-ADJ’ under ‘CCD’ of ‘FUNC’
in service mode whenever you have replaced the scanning lamp or the image processor PCB.

1. CCD
The CLC1000’s image input block is a 3-line CCD line sensor, each line consisting of 5000 photocells
(Figure 3-302). Each line is covered with a red, green, or blue color filter.
The light reflected by an original is projected to the CCD line sensor in reduced form, and the light color-
separated by the R, G, and B color filters is photo-converted. The signal charges occurring after conversion
are synchronized with the shift pulses generated by the analog processor PCB and stored temporarily in the
transfer block (single line); then, they are synchronized with the clock pulses generated by the analog
processor PCB and sent to the CCD in sequence.

The analog video signals from the CCD driver are subjected to gain correction and offset correction:
specifically, the output voltages in the absence of light are made even (offset correction) and the ratio of
amplification is made constant to even out the photo-conversion efficiencies of CCD pixels (gain adjustment)
The RGB video signals of the odd and even channels are integrated into a single channel in the offset
correction block and are converted into 8-bit digital signals (A/D conversion) according to the voltage level
and sent to the image processor PCB.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

The above PCBs are organized as shown in Figure 3-305.


The RGB signals (simultaneously coming as a result of a single scan) from the analog processor PCB
are converted into YMC and text signals on the image processor PCB and compressed and temporarily
stored on the memory PCB. The memory PCB generates Bk signals based on these YMC and text signals.
The YMCBk signals read from the IP memory PCB are sent to the video controller PCB by way of the
image processor PCB.
The ED board A1 processes the image signals from the image processor PCB (area processing, text
composition).
The communication with an external device (e.g., IPU, IPU-II) is by way of the interface Board B1/B2
(which also corrects color space).
The Preview Monitor Board converts the YMCBk signals to which all image processing has been made
into RGB signals for transmission to the CRT.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

a. Shading Correction
The output of the CCD is not always the same for the following reasons; this is true even if the original
has a uniform density:
• The sensitivities of the pixels of the CCD are not the same.
• The degree of transmission of the lens differs between the center and the periphery.
• The intensity of the scanning lamp differs between the middle and the edges.
• The scanning lamp deteriorates.

To compensate for the above discrepancies, the CLC1000 executes shading correction:
• Procedure of shading correction.

a) The CCD reads the bar code under the Standard white plate Bar code

correction target value. (See Reference.)

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

1. A bar code label is attached to the machine’s standard white plate. At the factory, light of
REF. a specific intensity is directed to each standard white plate, and the reflected light (values
of B, G, and R) is measured; the measurements are then converted to bar code nota
tions.
During copying, the machine reads the bar code to identify the degree of “white” of the
standard white plate before executing shading. The presence of the bar code has elimi
nated the calibration plate used in the past models.
2. The color balance of light areas may be adjusted using ‘OFST’ under ‘COL-ADJ’.
3. If the density or the color balance cannot be corrected with a base film for copying of
negative film, make adjustments using ‘NEGA’ under ‘PRJ-ADJ’.
4. The presence of scratches or dirt on the standard white plate will increase the effects of
shading correction over the affected areas, causing vertical white lines on the copies.
If such a problem cannot be corrected after cleaning the standard white plate, you may
change the position of shading correction using ‘ADJ-S’ under ‘ADJ-XY’ in service mode.

b. 3-Line CCD Position Matching


The machine’s CCD consists of three independent CCDs covered with either a R, G, or B filter. For this
reason, the line image generated by each CCD at a given point in time has a discrepancy of about 0.5 mm (8
lines) in sub scanning direction in relation to the copyboard glass.
To correct such discrepancies, the R and G image signals are temporarily stored in line memory first and
transmitted after they are synchronized with the B image signals.

The delay in B image signals is maximum at 400% enlargement; in other words, the R image
REF. signals are delayed for 64 lines, and the G image signals are delayed for 32 lines.
For instance, at 320% enlargement, the R image signals must be delayed by 51.2 lines; in
such a case, the following correction is made using data representing adjacent pixels:
51.2nd line pixel data = 0.8 × (51st line image data) + 0.2 × (52nd line pixel data)

The underside of the copyboard cover is mirror-finished (preventing refraction of light) instead of coated
white as in the case of conventional copiers so that only the area where there is an original reflects the light
of the scanning lamp to the CCD.

In general, most originals are white paper so that the area identified as being white during scanning can
be assumed to represent an original.
In other words, a rectangle (or square) whose diagonal line runs between coordinates Xmin/Ymin and
Xmax/Ymax is identified as an original.
If an original is placed at an angle as in the case of Figure 3-313, the rectangle whose diagonal line runs
between P1 and P2 will be identified as an original.

3. Ymin ..... Stores the coordinates nearest the start of the main scanning line where black
changes to white.
4. Ymax .... Stores the coordinates farthest from the start of the main scanning line where
white changes to black.

The position and the size of an original are automatically identified to enable automatic ratio selection,
automatic paper selection, and image shifts.

If the RF is installed and an original is placed on the copyboard, original position identification
cannot be executed.

In this block, shaded areas and continuous density areas of an image are distinguished, enabling
reproduction of naturally emphasized edges in dotted areas.
2. Line Width Identification
In this block, the width of the area (text) to which a specific pixel belongs is identified, thereby
enabling reproduction of naturally emphasized edges suited to the thickness of characters.
3. Edge Detection
In this block, the position of a specific pixel is identified as being or not being along the edge of a
character through comparison against adjacent pixels.
4. Color Identification
In this block, the hue of a specific pixel is identified. The result of identification may be black, or other
color.

The Bk signal (explained later) is generated based on the above characteristics.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

h. Color Space Correction


The range of possible color reproduction is wider with photo originals and computer-generated originals
than with color printers.
In the conventional method shown in Figure 3-323, colors (point a, point b) falling within the printer’s
color reproduction range are reproduced faithfully; however, a color (point c) outside the range is not
reproduced properly, resulting in a discrepancy in gradation between original and output images.
The CLC1000 has a good understanding of the color space (hue, brightness, vividness) that can be
reproduced by the printer. It checks the RGB data read by pre-scanning and processes it so that it can fit the
printer’s color reproduction range. With this arrangement, the CLC1000 reproduces the gradation of originals
much more faithfully than copiers using the conventional method.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

i. Removing the Background (adjusting the background level)


When the CCD reads the light reflected by an original, it also reads the color data of the surface of the
paper (background). In this block, the surface of paper (background) is identified for correction of image
signals, thereby preventing fogging of white backgrounds and improving reproduction quality.

Pixels are identified as representing the background of an original if they tend to appear most frequently
in the sample image data collected during pre-scanning and, in addition, if the level of the R, G, and B signals
is 200 or more (Figure 3-324).

Figure 3-324

“Background level adjustment” in user mode has two sub modes: mode A and mode B, each using a
different method of correction.
In mode A, only background pixels are processed; the color of the background is removed by correcting
the level of the RGB signal of the pixels to 255.
In mode B, the RGB signals of the background pixels are removed from the image data for the entire
image area. This way, the image on the back of the copy is removed if the copy is transparent enough to let
the back image show through.

j. Logarithmic Correction and BGR → YMC Conversion

a) Logarithmic Conversion
The CCD output has a linear characteristic in relation to the light reflected by an original. However, the
density as perceived by the eye is not linear in relation to the reflected light.
Figure 3-325 shows the relationship between the density of an original and the output of the CCD as
perceived by the eye.
To compensate for the discrepancy, level conversion is executed as shown in Figure 3-326.

m. IP Memory PCB
Since the CLC1000 uses four photosensitive drums, it temporarily stores image signals in image
memory.
The image signals (Y, M, C and text signals) from the scanner are sent to the IP memory PCB and
compressed to 1/6 the original size and stored in the image memory. The data is read according to the read
signal generated in relation to the ITOP signal and sent to the image processor after the UCR processing
block has generated the Bk signal.
The image signals from an external device are subjected to UCR processing without compression and
sent to the image processor PCB. (For this, the DRAM memory kit must be installed.)

Theoretically, mixing Y, M, and C toners in 255
equal parts should produce black. However, since
neither one of the toners has pure color absorption

representing three colors will not produce pure
black.
In this block, the Bk signal is generated based
Gray component Y M C

the reproduction of black can be improved by the
addition of the Bk signal to the Y, M, and C signals.

o. Output masking
A color image is reproduced by color toners with Y toner absorbing the B component, with M toner
absorbing the G component, and with C toner absorbing the R component.
However, in practice, the toners do not have pure color absorption characteristics as shown in Figure 3-
336. In general, Y toner tends to have good absorption characteristics, but M toner tends to have undesirable
absorption characteristics for the B component; and C toner likewise tends to have undesirable absorption
characteristics for the G and the B components (segments enclosed in Figure 3-336). In other words, M toner
if left as it is would tend to have color reproduction characteristics that include the Y component, and C toner
would have color reproduction characteristics that include the M and the Y components.

For this reason, reproduction of red by mixing Y toner and M toner would produce a yellowish red
because of the Y component of M toner. Real red could be reproduced by removing the Y component from M
toner (masking) in advance. This block makes such correction by masking the excess component in each
toner.

p. Filter Processing
In this block, computations are made so that a crisp or soft image may be obtained to suit the settings of
copying mode or sharpness mode selected on the control panel.
If image data shown in Figure 3-337 is input, the output level will be as shown in Figure 3-338 with
sharpness set to “weak.”
Setting sharpness to “weak” will smooth changes in the density of images, making the copy image soft.
And if image data shown in Figure 3-337 is input, the output level will be as shown Figure 3-339 with
sharpness set to “strong”.
Setting sharpness to “strong” will emphasize changes in the density of images, making the copy images
crisp.

IV. LASER EXPOSURE SYSTEM


A. Outline
The laser exposure system consists of a laser unit, which is the source of laser beams, a laser scanning
unit, which performs laser scanning (main scanning direction) using a polygon (8-facet) mirror, and a BD
detection PCB, which generates sync signals for scanning direction.

Figure 3-401

The video signals (for M in Figure 3-401), which is synchronized for main and sub scanning directions by
the video controller, are converted by the laser driver into laser drive signals that represent the level of the
signals. The laser beam is generated by the laser unit using this laser drive signal. The laser beam comes to
have scanning characteristics in a specific direction because of the polygon mirror, which rotates at a high
speed. The laser beam hits and scans the negatively charged photosensitive drum (Figure 3-401) to form a
static latent image on the photosensitive drum.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

The CLC1000 is equipped with a laser unit for each color (Y, M, C, Bk), each unit directing a laser beam
against its corresponding photosensitive drum. The polygon mirror consists of top and bottom blocks,
generating four channels of laser beams as shown in Figure 3-402.

B. Sequence of Operations (laser exposure system)


Figure 3-404 shows the sequence of operations for the laser exposure system.
The laser scanner motor starts to rotate as soon as the power switch is turned on and continues to rotate
at a specific speed until the power switch is turned off.
Each semiconductor laser is 00-activated as soon as the Start key is pressed and is PWM-activated in
relation to the image leading edge signal to form a latent image on the drum. The PWM activation period is
given a delay for each color to make up for the distance between drums.
When the PWM activation for a single scan ends, the laser turns fully for BD signal detection; the next
scanning operation starts when the BD signal is generated.

The laser scanner motor (M4) is a DC motor, and the motor starts to rotate at a specific speed when the
laser scanner motor drive signal (SMON*) goes ‘0’. If the rotation speed of the motor is at a specific value, the
laser scanner motor ready signal (SMRDY*) goes ‘0’, indicating to the DC controller that the condition is
normal; if the rotation speed of the motor deviates because of an error, SMRDY* goes ‘1’, displaying error
code ‘E110’ on the control panel.

D. Generating the BD Signal


The BD signal is used to synchronize video signals (for the main scanning direction of the laser beam).
The laser beam reflected by the BD mirror located in the optical path of the beam is detected by the BD
detection PCB, and the detection signal is used to generate the BD signal. As can be learned from Figure 3-
406, as many as four BD detection PCBs are used to deal with the four colors and the BD signal is generated
for each channel.

E. Video Controller
1. Outline

Figure 3-408 shows the video controller PCB, which controls the synchronization of video signals from
the image processor PCB and sends the video signals to the laser driver; the main functions of the circuits
are as follows:
1 Generates clock signals for synchronization control.
2 Controls synchronization in main/sub scanning direction.
3 Corrects density.
4 Counts video data units.
5 Generates image patterns.
Each of the Y, M, C, and Bk video signals compressed and stored on the IP memory PCB is read in sync
with the ITOP signal (image leading edge signal) and sent to the video controller PCB through the image
processor PCB. (See “Synchronization Control in Main/Sub Scanning Direction.”)
The video signals are then synchronized for the sub scanning direction based on the ITOP signal and
are subjected to gamma correction based on the conversion table in the density correction RAM. (See
“Density Correction.”)
Of the video signals after density correction, the Y and the M signals are sent to a special memory for
synchronization in the main scanning direction. Since the main scanning direction for the C and the Bk video
signals are opposite that of the Y and the M video signals, the writing direction is reversed before
transmission to the memory for synchronization in the main scanning direction. The synchronization for the
main scanning direction is by clock signals generated based on the BD signals. (See “Synchronization
Control for Main/Sub Scanning Direction.”)

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

2. Synchronization Control for the Main/Sub Scanning Direction

The video signals are synchronized for the main scanning direction based on the BD signal by the video
controller. The video signal after gamma correction is written to the memory for main scanning direction
synchronization in response to the main scanning sync signal (HSYNC*) based on the write BD signal
(WBD). At this time, writing is enabled by the write enable signal (WE*), and the same timing is used for Y, M,
C, and Bk.
Reading from the memory for the main scanning direction is executed based on the BD signal for Y, M,
C, and Bk. In the sample shown in Figure 3-410, the Y main scanning sync signal (YSYNC*) is generated in
sync with the Y BD signal (YBD); the read enable signal (YRE*) is generated after a specific period of time*
following the generation of YSYNC; and the Y video signals are read from the memory for the main scanning
direction.
*May be changed; used for image position correction explained later.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

The video signals are synchronized for the sub scanning direction by the video controller based on the
image leading edge signal (ITOP). The ITOP signal is triggered by the output of the transfer belt home
position sensor, and the timing of output varies according to paper size. When the ITOP signal is generated,
the read enable signal for each color (YMRE in the case of Figure 3-411) causes the video signals (YMCBk)
to be read from the page memory area for transmission to the video controller. (As can be learned from the
timing chart, the read enable signal for each color is given a delay for the distance between drums.)
The video signal is forced to remain ‘0’ until the print area signal (YFRM in Figure 3-411) is generated,
thereby creating a leading edge margin.

To prevent such displacement, the CLC1000 corrects image positions in relation to the above factors:
1 Transfers the image position correction pattern (output from the RAM area of the video controller)
directly to the transfer belt (for Y, M, C, and Bk).
2 Reads the pattern of each color by the CCD for reading patterns.
3 Using the M pattern for reference, analyzes each pattern to determine the degree of discrepancy
using the CPU on the DC controller.
4 Prepares correction data based on the results of analysis, and imposes feedback on each factor.

As shown in Figure 3-422, patterns are formed along the front and the rear ends in the order of Y, C, M,

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

This correction is executed at the following timing:


1 When the power switch is turned on.
2 When the Start key is pressed after a specific period of time* following a press on the power-switch.
*Every two hours after 20 min, 40 min, 60 min, 90 min, and 120 min.
3 After jamming.
4 When activated in service mode.

The pattern is formed as follows:


When the power switch is turned on, the Y pattern is formed as soon as the fixing temperature reaches
110°C; then, the M pattern is formed after a specific period of time has passed (photosensitive drum-to-drum
distance and pattern interval of 7 mm; for the C and Bk patterns, see Figure 3-427). Thereafter, the Y pattern

If the coordinates of the centers at the front

discrepancy. Correction is made so that ∆Y will be Y
closer to 0. (In the case of Figure 3-434, the start of
Y will be delayed to correspond to the start of M.)

The correction is made by changing the read timing (T1 in Figure 3-435) for the Y, C, and Bk video

If the coordinates of centers in the pattern are

2. Controlling the Drum Surface Potential


a. Outline
The CLC1000 measures the drum surface potential to control the level of the grid and the developing
biases as shown in Figure 3-506. When the power switch is tuned on, the appropriate grid and developing
biases are determined so as to obtain an ideal contrast potential (initial potential control); thereafter, the
appropriate grid bias is determined each time the Start key is pressed, thereby correcting changes over time
(potential correction).

The printing density changes over time because of the following factors:
• Deterioration of the developer
• Deterioration of the photosensitive drum
• Changes in the environment
To make up for the changes, the density of the density pattern formed on the photosensitive drum is
measured by the SALT sensor, and the toner supply period is corrected based on the resulting
measurements.

The toner density is measured by the SALT sensor as shown in Figure 3-516. When single copies are
made, measurements are taken after each copying run; during continuous copying, measurements are
taken when all copies have been made. However, if the copy count is set to ‘100’ or higher, measurements
are taken after each 100 copies have been made.

E. Developing Assembly
1. Outline
The CLC1000 is equipped with four photosensitive drums, and a developing assembly is fixed in
position for each drum for development of Y, M, C, and Bk. The developing cylinder for each color is driven
by the developing motor installed for the respective color.
Toner is supplied to developing assemblies differently among Y, M, and C developing assemblies and
Bk assembly. In the case of the Y, M, and C developing assemblies, infrared light is shone on the toner layer
on the developing assemblies and the reflected light is measured to determine the amount of toner to supply;
on the other hand, in the case of the Bk developing assembly, video signals representing the Bk component
and the output of the SALT sensor are used to compute the amount of toner to supply. (See chapter 4. E.
Developing Assembly, 4-b. “Measuring Color Toner Density” and “4-e. Measuring Toner Density by the
SALT Sensor,” respectively.)

2. Controlling the Developing Bias


The developing bias applied to the developing cylinder is a combination of an AC bias and a DC bias. A
DC bias is generated by the transformer on the HVT3A, and an AC bias is generated by the HVT3A based on
±1 kV generated by the transformer on the HVT3B. (The AC bias is generated so that it assumes the wave
forms shown in Figure 3-528.) Both DC and AC biases are controlled by control signals from the DC
controller for application.
The DC bias to the stray toner collecting electrode is generated by the HVT3B and sent in response to
control signals.

4. Supplying Toner
a. Outline
Toner is supplied from the hopper based on the measurements taken of the toner density. Different
methods are used to measure the density between Bk toner and Y, M, and C toners because of different
toner characteristics. For Y, M, and C toners, the color toner density sensor is used to measure the density
of the toner in the developer layer on the developing cylinder. As in the case of carriers, the Bk toner tends to
absorb infrared light, and for this reason the density on the developing cylinder cannot be measured. The
video signals carrying a Bk component are counted to find out the image density, thereby computing toner
consumption. When copying operation ends, the SALT sensor measures the toner image on the
photosensitive drum to find out the toner density.

The mechanism of measurement is as follows:


The CLC1000’s developer is a two-component developer consisting of carrier and toner. When exposed
to infrared light, the color toner will reflect infrared light while the carrier will absorb it. In other words, when the
amount of toner decreases because of consumption over time, the reflection of infrared light will decrease
because of the changing toner/carrier ratio of the developer.

Using an infrared diode, the toner/carrier ratio


is computed from the intensity of the infrared light Reflected intensity signal

To make up for the deterioration occurring in

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

The sequence of measurement is as follows:


When the developer has been replaced upon installation or when the sensor has been replaced, you
must set the initial values for the reflected light and the direct light in service mode. (See chapter 7.
Troubleshooting Image Problems.) During copying operation that follows, the LED is turned ON to read the
reflected light and the direct light occurring when the developing cylinder has rotated, thereby computing the
toner density with reference to the difference between the initial value and the measured value.

Sets the initial values for the reflected light


and the direct light.

The direct light signal and


the reflected light signal are read.

Computes the density with reference to the difference between


the initial value and the measured value of the reflected light.
The toner density
is measured.

Figure 3-537

In the case of the M developing assembly, the LED ON signal (LEDON*) turns on the LED inside the
sensor. The LED intensity is kept to a specific value by controlling the current to the LED so that the intensity
of direct light (REF-M level) remains the same. By comparing the reflected intensity (SGNL-M) and its initial
value, a voltage corresponding to the density of the toner is computed and used as the toner density signal.
The intensity of the LED changes over time or according to the ambient temperature. The degree of
deterioration is computed by comparing the initial value and the intensity of direct light at time of
measurement and is used as the correction value when measuring the density of toner.

c. Supplying Color Toner


If the results of measuring the toner density indicate that the density of toner inside the developing
assembly is below a specific level, the DC controller sends the toner supply signal to turn on the toner supply
clutch. As a result, the drive of the Pick-up motor moves through the toner supply screw to supply toner to the
developing assembly. This operation is executed while the developing cylinder is rotating after measuring
the density of toner.
The duration of toner supply, i.e., during which the toner supply clutch remains on, varies depending on
the toner density signal.

d. Detecting the Image Density


Like carriers, the Bk toner absorbs infrared light, allowing the measurement of the density of the toner
layer on the developing cylinder. Bk toner is supplied based on the amount of consumption computed with

signals from the image processor are counted to obtain a cumulative count by the video data counter.

To check the density of toner within the developer, a toner image is formed on the photosensitive drum
after copying operation. This measurement of density is done by the SALT sensor (Figure 3-542) mounted to

is shone against the density pattern to measure the density with reference to the reflected light.

g. Supplying Bk Toner
As shown in Figure 3-547, the sequence of supply operations is based on the detection of the density of
the image and the measurement of the density taken by the SALT sensor.
When the original has been exposed, the video signals are counted, and the toner supply period is
determined based on the cumulative count.
When copying operation ends, the SALT sensor measures the density of toner on the photosensitive
drum is measured. If the resulting measurement is higher than the ideal density (too much toner), a
subtraction will be made from the count of video signals so that the supply period (amount) will be less; if the
measurement is lower than the ideal density (too little toner), on the other hand, opposite correction is made
to supply a larger amount of toner.

the 100th copy has been made. (See Figure 3-548.)

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

As shown in Figure 3-549, the hopper consists of a main hopper and a sub hopper. Bk toner requires
higher precision than color toner for supply operation because its amount of supply is based on a value
computed from video signals. To ensure precision, the main hopper, in which toner tends to cake less, is
used to supply toner to the developing assembly.

The toner density signal is used to determine how long toner should be supplied, i.e., how long the toner

If the main hopper toner sensor (TS5) detects the absence of toner eight times in a row despite toner
supply operation, ‘E020’ will be indicated on the control panel after copying operation.

F. Cleaning the Photosensitive Drum


The photosensitive drum cleaner is driven by the developing motor (M18Y, 18M, 18C, 18Bk). The waste
toner scraped by the cleaning blade is forwarded to the waste toner container by a feeding screw driven by
the developing motor and the waste toner motor.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

If the waste toner pipe becomes clogged for some reason and the waste toner feeding screw will not
rotate, leakage of waste toner can occur.
To prevent such a problem, a feeding screw detection mechanism is provided. The gear A (Figure 3-
553) used to drive the waste toner feeding screw shifts over the shaft because of the axial force that occurs
when the feeding screw locks.
The shift of the gear A is checked by the lock detection switch (SW4). When the gear A pushes the
switch, the waste toner feeding motor (M20) stops and ‘E013’ will be indicated on the control panel.

1. Outline
Figure 3-554 shows the construction of the transfer unit. The transfer current to the transfer blade, static
eliminating current to the internal static removing roller, and the charging current to the separation charging
corona wire and the pre-fixing charging corona wire are all controlled by the control signals from the DC
controller. An AC bias and a DC bias are applied to the separation corona wire; only a DC bias is used for all
others.

Q1 turns on, and a drive voltage suited to the voltage level of HVTR-Y is sent to the transformer.

The transformer is driven, and transfer current is generated.

The output of transfer current is monitored by its current value, and the data is fed back to the transistor
Q1. The feedback signal is used to control the transformer drive voltage, thereby maintaining the transfer
current at a specific level.
If an abnormally high voltage occurs, because of passage of the edge of paper for example, and
overcurrent is detected, the OC signal forces Q1 OFF to stop the supply of the transformer drive voltage for
20 msec; the supply will return automatically thereafter.
Further, with the help of the environment sensor, the current value is corrected each time the Start key
is pressed.

Figure 3-557 shows the circuit that controls the separation corona current, and the circuit has the
following functions:
• Turns on and off the separation corona current.
• Executes AC bias constant voltage control.
• Executes DC bias constant current control.
The separation corona current is turned on and off by the separation corona current drive signal
(HVSPDC, HVSPAC) as follows:

Input is made in the range of HVSPD=0V to 12V.

Pulses with a width suited to the voltage of HVSPDC are generated.

The transformer for DC is driven.

A DC bias suited to the voltage level of HVSPEDC is generated.

HVSPAC=1

The pulse circuit turns on, and pulse output is sent to the transformer for AC.

The transformer for AC is driven.

A bias for separation is generated.

The DC controller PCB generates a DC component control signal (HVSPDC) appropriate to the type of
paper (plain, thick, transparency/thin paper) and the data from the environment sensor.
The output of the separation corona current DC component is monitored with reference to its current
value, and the data is sent to the transistor Q1 in the form of feedback. This feedback signal is used to control
the transformer drive voltage, thereby maintaining the separation corona current to a constant level.
If an abnormally high voltage occurs and, as a result, an overcurrent is detected, the OC signal turns Q2
OFF to stop the supply of transformer drive voltage for 20 msec; the supply will return automatically
thereafter.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

VI. PICK-UP/FEEDING ASSEMBLY


A. Outline
The CLC1000 uses center reference for feeding paper, i.e., paper moves along the center of the pick-up/
feeding path.
The pick-up system includes cassette 1, cassette 2, multifeeder, and holding tray (duplexing unit). (For
the paper deck, see “C. Paper Deck.”)
Paper from a cassette or the multifeeder is controlled by the registration roller so that its leading edge
and the leading edge of the image on the photosensitive drum match and is then sent to the transfer belt.
Upon reaching the transfer belt, the paper is retained against the transfer belt by the work of the charges
from the transfer blade; then, transfer of the first color (Y) occurs.
When transfer of the fourth color ends, the paper is moved through the separation, feeding, and fixing
assemblies to reach the copy tray (Figure 3-601).
The microprocessor on the DC controller PCB generates the image leading edge signal (ITOP) as soon
as the registration roller turns on, and the signal is used for reading image data from the memory PCB.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

B. Pick-Up Assembly
1. Detecting Paper Size
a. Outline
The size of paper in the cassette is checked by the paper width detecting VR and the paper length
sensor unit mounted to the rear of the cassette holder.
When the cassette is inserted into the cassette holder, the paper length sensor unit and the paper width
detecting VR are actuated by the bosses on the cassette, and the actuation is used to find out the width and
the length of the paper and ultimately to identify its size as one of the default sizes.
The CLC1000 identifies the size of paper with reference to width and length and, at the same time,
determines where to reverse the scanner and the range of laser exposure.
The bosses used to push the paper length sensor unit and the paper width detecting VR operate in
association with the width guide plate and the length guide plate inside the cassette, and adjusting these
guides to suit the paper will establish the positions of the bosses (Figure 3-603).

b. Detecting the Size of Paper


The paper length sensor unit consists of two
photointerrupters, and the combination of outputs A4/A3
Variable resistor output

of these two sensors is used to determine the


length of paper.
On the other hand, the paper width detecting
A4R
VR is a variable resistor, and the resistance
generated by the VR is used to determine the
width of paper.
Figure 3-602 shows the relationship between STMT-R
the paper width and the output of the VR. The
proportional relationship is stored in the RAM on
the DC controller PCB. You must enter the basic
settings if you have replaced the cassette, VR, or
STMT-R A4R A4
DC controller PCB or if you have initialized the (139.7mm) (210mm) (297mm)
RAM on the DC controller. (See chapter 7. II.

2. Cassette Pick-Up Assembly


a. Outline
The CLC1000’s pick-up assembly is constructed as shown in Figure 3-604.
The cassette can accommodate as many as 500 sheets of paper (80 g/m2).
The paper inside the cassette are raised by the lifter and is kept in contact with the pick-up roller.
When the pick-up roller clutch turns on, the pick-up roller rotates to pick up paper. Then, the pick-up
roller releasing solenoid turns on so that the pick-up roller leaves the surface of the paper.
After pick-up, a single sheet of paper is forwarded to the feeding path by the feeding roller and the
separation roller. Then, the paper is moved as far as the transfer belt through the registration roller by the
work of the pick-up vertical path roller.
The notations used for the pick-up clutches and the pick-up roller solenoids of the multifeeder, cassette,
and the duplexing unit are as shown in Table 3-605.

b. Cassette Lifter Operation


Figures 3-605 and -606 show outlines of cassette lifter operation.
When the cassette is set in the copier, the pick-up roller lowers and the lifter detecting lever leaves the
lifter sensor.
The condition turns on the cassette lifer motor, thereby raising the lifter. The cassette lifter motor stops
where the cassette lifter sensor can detect the top surface of the stack of paper on the lifter.
When paper runs out and the paper detecting lever leaves the paper sensor, the message ‘ADD

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

3. Multifeeder Pick-Up Assembly


a. Operation
The multifeeder pick-up assembly is constructed as shown in Figure 3-608.
The multifeeder is a mechanism that picks up paper from a stack on its tray for continuous feeding.
As many as 250 sheets of paper (80 g/m2) may be stacked on the tray.
The paper on the tray is detected by the multifeeder paper sensors (PS4, PS5).
When the Start key is pressed, the stack of paper is raised to the pick-up position by the multifeeder lifter
motor (M1).
The pick-up roller is rotated by the drive of the pick-up motor (M10) for pick-up of paper.
Then, the multifeeder pick-up roller releasing solenoid (SL5) turns on, moving the pick-up roller away
from the surface of the paper.
A single sheet of paper is moved by the feeding roller and the separation roller to the registration roller by
way of the paper thickness detecting roller.
The CLC1000 checks the thickness of paper when picking it up from the multifeeder, thereby identifying
it as being plain or thick. (For transparencies, see “4. Picking Up Transparencies.”)

b. Identifying the Size of Paper in the Multifeeder


The slide guide assembly of the multifeeder tray is equipped with a variable resistor, and the width of
paper is detected when the slide guide is moved against the edge of paper.
The length of paper, on the other hand, is checked in reference to how long the registration paper sensor
(PS1) remains ON.
The slide guide (front) and the slide guide (rear) each are equipped with a multifeeder paper sensor
(PS4, PS5) to check the presence/absence of paper. The message ‘ADD PAPER’ is indicated on the control
panel when either of them is off.

c. Lifter Operation
Figure 3-610 shows an outline of multifeeder lifter operation.
When the Start key is pressed, the multifeeder lifter motor (M1) rotates clockwise to raise the multifeeder
lifter by the lifter plate until the multifeeder lifter sensor (upper: PS2) turns ON.
This ascending movement of the lifter puts the paper on the multifeeder tray in contact with the
multifeeder pick-up roller, making it ready for pick-up.
The multifeeder motor rotates in reverse at the following timing so that the multifeeder lifter lowers until
the multifeeder lifter sensor (lower: PS3) turns ON.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

d. Detecting the Thickness of Paper


When picking up paper from the multifeeder, the CLC1000 uses the paper thickness detecting roller and
the reflecting type paper thickness sensor in the multifeeder pick-up assembly to check the thickness of
paper; in particular, it controls the fixing speed to ensure proper fixing of images on thick paper.
The paper thickness detecting roller rotates by the drive of the pick-up motor (M10) coming by way of the
paper thickness detecting roller clutch (CL7).
Under the control of the CPU on the DC controller PCB, the light of the LED of the paper thickness
sensor is shone against the paper thickness detecting roller (upper) when paper is not moving through the
paper thickness detecting roller. The difference in the angle of the light of the LED reflected by the paper
thickness detection roller (upper) lets the paper thickness sensor to identify the shift of the paper detecting
roller (upper) caused by the thickness of paper.
The shift is subjected to computation to find out the thickness of paper: ‘roller position when paper is
present’ - ‘roller position when paper is absent’ = paper thickness.

4. Picking Up Transparencies
As in the case of plain paper, transparencies may be stacked on the multifeeder or in cassette 1 or
cassette 2.
Transparencies stacked on the multifeeder or in cassette 1 or cassette 2 or paper deck are identified as
being transparencies or not by the registration paper sensor (PS1) and the transparency sensor in front of
the registration roller.
When they are identified as transparencies, the fixing speed is switched to low speed to ensure proper
fixing (See chapter 3. G. Fixing/Delivery Assembly).

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

5. Releasing the Registration Roller


The registration roller is released so as to make up for the minute discrepancy between the speed at
which paper is moved by the registration roller and the speed at which it is moved by the transfer belt so as
to prevent displacement of the image, which could occur otherwise.
In the case of pick-up from the multifeeder, the registration roller starts to rotate; and, when the paper
has moved on the transfer belt, the registration roller releasing solenoid (SL16) turns on.
As a result, the drive of the pick-up motor is transmitted to the registration releasing arm by way of the
spring clutch and the registration releasing cam, causing the registration roller (upper) to move up and
releasing its pressure. (The registration releasing cam makes a 1/2 rotation when the registration releasing
solenoid turns on by the work of the spring clutch.)
The solenoid SL16 is on in the presence of a jam.

C. Paper Deck
1. Outline
The paper deck can hold as many as 4,000 sheets of paper (A4/LTR/B5; 80 g/m2) at once and picks up
and feeds paper to the copier body in response to control signals from the DC controller PCB.
The lifter of the paper deck is driven by the paper deck motor (M8001), and paper is picked up using the
drive of the copier’s pick-up motor (M10).

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

2. Pick-Up Operation
The paper set in the paper deck is raised by the lifter and stopped at a specific position.
When the paper deck pick-up clutch (CL8002) turns on, the pick-up motor rotates to pick up paper.
Then, the paper deck pick-up roller releasing solenoid (SL8001) turns on, and the pick-up roller leaves the
surface of the paper.
A single sheet of paper is fed forward by the pick-up/feeding roller and the separation roller.
The feeding roller starts to rotate when the paper deck feeding roller clutch (CL8001) turns on to forward
the paper to the registration roller.
The registration roller controls the paper so that its leading edge and the image on the photosensitive
drum match.

4. Paper Deck Lifter Operation


a. Outline
The lifter of the paper deck receives drive from the paper deck motor (M8001) transmitted through gears
and chains and moves up and down as the motor switches its direction of rotation.
The paper deck motor is turned on/off and its direction of rotation is switched based on combinations of
signals from various sensors (Figure 3-618) and switches (PS8002, SW8001, SW8002, SW8003) and
control signals from the CPU on the DC controller PCB.
The lifter moves and stops when the lifter position sensor (PS8002) detects the top surface of the paper
stacked on the lifter.
When paper runs out and the sensor arm blocks the paper absent sensor (PS8001), the message ‘ADD
PAPER’ will be indicated on the control panel.
At this time, the lifter will move up until it pushes the lifter upper switch (SW8001) and then stop.
On the other hand, the lifter will move down until its cam pushes the lifter lower limit switch (SW8002)
and then stop.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

b. Paper Deck Motor Control Circuit


The paper deck motor control circuit is found on the DC controller PCB. See Figure 3-619 for a block
diagram.
The combination circuit in the figure consists of various logic circuits, and they combine the output
signals from various sensors and the control signals from the microprocessor to generate the lifter up/down
signals (STMUP/STMDN).
The two signals are used to activate the motor drive IC to rotate the paper deck motor clockwise or
counterclockwise.
An overcurrent detection circuit is provided to force off the paper deck motor if a short-circuit or the like
allows an overcurrent to flow into the motor. When the circuit has activated, the copier may be reset by
removing the cause and turning off and on the power switch.

Moving the Lifter Up


• The paper deck cover must be closed, i.e., the cover open signal (STDO) is ‘0’.
• The light-blocking plate must not be over the lifter position sensor and, in addition, the lifter upper limit
switch must be off and the lifter position signal (LTP) must be ‘0’.
• The lifter up/down control signal from the CPU is ‘0’.
• The motor ON control signal from the CPU is ‘1’.
As a result of the above conditions, the output signals from the combination circuit will be as follows:
• The lifter up signal (STMUP) will be ‘1’.
• The lifter down signal (STMDN) will be ‘0’.
whereupon the lifter starts to move up.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

Moving the Lifter Down


• The paper deck cover must be open, i.e., the cover open signal (STDO) is ‘1’.
• The lifter lower limit switch (SW11) must be off, i.e., the lifter lower limit signal (LFLM) is ‘1’.
As a result of the above conditions, the output signals from the combination circuit will be as follows:
• The lifter up signal (STMUP) will be ‘0’.
• The lifter down signal (STMDN) will be ‘1’.
whereupon the lifter starts to move down.
In Response to a Jam
When a jam occurs, the lifter up/down control signal by the CPU changes from ‘0’ to ‘1’.
The condition causes the lifter up signal (STMUP) to go ‘0’ and the lifter down signal to go ‘1’, thereby
lowering the lifter. At this time, the lifter will not move down to its lowest position but will stop when the top
surface of paper lowers a maximum of about 12 mm.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

D. Duplexing Unit
1. Outline
Paper picked up from the cassette or the multifeeder is forwarded to the delivery vertical path assembly
by the delivery paper deflecting plate after fixing. Thereafter, it is moved through the pre-duplexing feeding
assembly and to the duplexing feeding assembly inside the duplexing unit.
Inside the duplexing feeding assembly, the three paper deflecting plates are shifted to change the paper
path to suit the length of paper for stacking in the duplexing unit stacking assembly (See chapter 3. X.
POWER SUPPLY).
The duplexing stacking assembly heater is mounted to prevent curling of both edges of paper.
Figures 3-620 and -621 show diagrams of the duplexing unit and the operation of the duplexing unit.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

2. Stacking for Two-Sided Copies


When fixing is finished on the first side of paper, the delivery paper deflecting plate (SL14) turns on to
shift the delivery paper deflecting plate so that it moves the paper through the delivery vertical path assembly
to the duplexing reversing assembly.
When the trailing edge of paper moves past the delivery vertical path sensor (PS32) and a specific
period of time passes, the duplexing reversing assembly inlet roller starts to rotate in reverse. The paper then
moves to the pre-holding tray feeding assembly through the feeding path that occurs when the deflecting
sheet, which has been pressed down by the paper, returns to its original position.
The above operation reverses the paper.
The pick-up roller inside the holding tray (duplexing unit) moves up by the drive from the duplexing unit
pick-up solenoid (SL8); the stopper plate, on the other hand, shifts up by the drive of the duplexing unit
stopper plate solenoid (SL18).
The above condition is maintained until paper arrives.
When paper is brought to the duplexing unit stacking assembly by the drive of the duplexing feeding
motor (M19), the feeding roller lowers to butt the paper against the stopper plate.
When the last paper has been stacked, the stopper plate is shifted down, and then the pick-up roller
starts pick-up operation for the second side. See Figures 3-622 and -623 for an outline of stacking operation
for two-sided copies.
If an error occurs in the rotation of the duplexing feeding motor, ‘E017’ will be indicated on the control
panel.

3. Changing the Paper Path in the Duplexing Feeding Assembly


The paper path in the duplexing feeding assembly is changed to suit the size of paper (default sizes) in
two-sided copying.
A path may be any of four created by three paper deflecting plates.
Each paper deflecting plate is driven by its own solenoid (Table 3-607).

The CLC1000's two-sided copying mode does not accommodate A5 size, and the paper de-
flecting plate found on the farthest right of Figure 3-624 is not used.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

4. Paper Guide Plate

a. Outline
The paper guide plates are used to control the size of paper to be stacked in the duplexing unit stacking
assembly and to prevent skew movement or jamming during pick-up operation.
The paper guide plates are moved against the edges of paper each time paper arrives.
b. Arranging Sheets by the Paper Guide Plates
When the Start key is pressed while two-sided copying mode is selected, the duplexing stacking guide
motor (M23) starts to rotate counterclockwise, and the paper guide plates move in the direction of the arrows
in Figure 3-625.
The motor stops when the light-blocking plate of the paper guide plate blocks the duplexing stacking
guide home position sensor (PS29).
The DC controller PCB then sends pulses in numbers appropriate to the size of paper to the motor.
In response, the motor starts to rotate clockwise to move the paper guide plate to suit the copy size.
Then, the motor rotates counterclockwise to stop the paper size at a point about 8 mm (each side) away from
the edge of the coming paper.
When the paper arrives at the duplexing unit stacking assembly, the motor rotates clockwise (moving
the guide plate by 8 mm) and counterclockwise (moving the guide plate by 8 mm) to put the paper in position.
When the last paper arrives, the motor rotates clockwise and counterclockwise in preparation for
copying on the second side.
While copying on the second side, the motor remains at rest and remains such until the next run in which
copying on the first side takes place.

5. Pick-Up from the Duplexing Unit


a. Outline
When copying on the second side, paper is picked up from the stack inside the duplexing unit stacking
assembly.
The stopper plate shifts down when the Start key is pressed, and the duplexing unit pick-up roller clutch
(CL10) turns on. This condition causes the drive of the pick-up motor (M10) to be transmitted to the pick-up
roller, starting pick-up operation. After pick-up, the duplexing pick-up roller releasing solenoid (SL8) operates
to move the pick-up roller away from the surface of the paper.
A single sheet of paper is fed into the pick-up vertical path assembly by the feeding roller and the
separation roller.
Figure 3-628 shows an outline of pick-up operation from the duplexing unit.

E. Transfer Unit
1. Outline
The CLC1000's transfer unit is constructed as shown in Figure 3-630. The transfer unit is used to retain
paper coming from the registration roller to the transfer belt by the transfer blade (Y) and, at the same time,
to transfer the toner images on the Y, M, C, and Bk photosensitive drums to the paper. Thereafter, the
transfer unit operates to feed the paper separated by the transfer belt by the separation charging unit to the
pre-fixing feeding assembly.
The transfer unit has the following functions:
• Moves the transfer blade in/out of position.
• Detects the home position of the transfer belt.
• Corrects displacement of the transfer belt.
• Operates the lifter of the transfer belt.
• Cleans the transfer belt.

The DC controller PCB causes the transfer belt motor drive signal (M14D*) to go ‘0’ in response to the
activation of the transfer belt motor and, at the same time, generates the transfer belt motor reference pulse
signal (M14PLS).
When M14D* and M14PLS are input to the motor drive pulse generator circuit on the transfer belt motor
driver PCB, motor drive pulses are sent to the motor drive circuit, causing the transfer belt to rotate at a
specific speed.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

3. Putting the Transfer Blade In/Out of Position


As shown in Figure 3-632, four transfer blades are mounted, one each for Y, M, C, and Bk. With the
exception of transfer charging operation, the blade is moved away from the transfer belt to limit its load on the
belt — as when the last paper has moved past the transfer belt.
When the registration roller clutch (CL8) turns on, the transfer blade is put in transfer position for
retention of paper and transfer.
The transfer blade is put in and out of position by the drive of the transfer blade solenoid (SL7Y, SL7M,
SL7C, SL7Bk).
The transfer blade solenoid is a latching type, which can hold its steel core out or in by switching the
drive signal without the need for retention current.

4. Detecting the Home Position of the Transfer Belt


The transfer belt is moved by the drive of the transfer belt motor (M14). As many as five (A4/LTR) sheets
of paper may be retained on the transfer belt by the charges from the transfer blade.
If paper was put on the transfer belt using the same timing at all times, different sizes and copy modes
would put some sheets over the seam of the transfer belt. Transfer on paper kept over a seam would
adversely affect the images because of uneven charging efficiency.
To prevent such a problem, a seam detection sticker is put on the transfer belt. When the Start key is
pressed, the transfer belt home position sensor (PS16) detects the seal so as to control the timing at which
the registration roller turns on, thereby making sure that paper will not be put over the seam. (See Figure 3-
633.)
If, for some reason, the transfer belt home position sensor fails to detect the home position of the transfer
belt, ‘E070’ will be indicated on the control panel.
The seam detection sticker on the transfer belt is put on the back of the transfer belt (at the rear).

5. Point of Retention
In continuous copying, the point of retention on the transfer belt varies depending on the selected
copying mode and type of paper. See Table 3-609 for a list of retention modes and Figure 3-634 for points of
retention that correspond to the modes. (The table also discusses the degree of shine.)

The CLC1000 varies the fixing speed to a specific speed to provide appropriate shine on the
copies.
A higher fixing speed decreases the shine, producing a matte effect. A lower fixing speed, on
the other hand, increases the shine, producing a glossy effect.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

6. Correcting Displacement of the Transfer Belt


When rotated continuously, the transfer belt tends to shift to the front or the rear. The transfer belt end
sensor 1 (front; PS17) and the transfer belt end sensor 2 (rear; PS18) are used to monitor such movement of
the transfer belt; when displacement occurs, the transfer belt swing motor (M13) tilts the swing roller so that
the transfer belt is moved askew in the opposite direction, thereby correcting the displacement.
To prevent full displacement and, thereby damage, of the transfer belt, the transfer belt end sensor 3
(front; PS19) and the transfer belt end sensor 4 (rear; PS20) are used.
See Figures 3-635, -636, and -637 for diagrams of the mechanism used to correct displacement of the
transfer belt, from detecting displacement to moving the swing roller.
If the CPU on the DC controller PCB detects the activation of each of the sensors under the following
conditions, ‘E075’ will be indicated on the control panel:
• The transfer belt edge sensor 1/2 (PS17/PS18) detects the end of the transfer belt (sensor lever not
over the sensor) longer than a specific period of time.
• The transfer belt end sensor 3/4 (PS19/PS20) detects the end of the transfer belt (sensor lever over
the sensor).

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

7. Operation of the Transfer Belt Lifter


A mechanism is needed to prevent adhesion of toner on the photosensitive drum to the transfer belt
when the density of Bk toner is measured (See chapter 3. E. Developing Assembly, 4-e. Measuring the
Toner by the SALT Sensor). To prevent adhesion, the drive of the pick-up motor (M10) is transmitted to the
cam through the transfer belt lifter clutch (CL17), thereby lowering (moving away) the transfer belt by the
transfer lifter arm.
When the density of Bk toner has been measured, the transfer belt is moved up back to the point of
transfer.
The lifter movement is monitored with reference to the light-blocking plate (mounted to the cam shaft)
detected by the transfer belt lifter sensor 1 (PS12) and the transfer belt lifter sensor 2 (PS13). (See Table 3-
610.)
If the transfer belt lifter does not reach a specific point over a specific period of time after the transfer belt
lifter clutch has turned on, ‘E074’ will be indicated on the control panel.

b. Transfer Cleaning Blade


The transfer cleaning blade is used to remove toner from the transfer during image position correction.
(See Chapter 3. IV. G. Image Position Correction.)
The cleaning blade is set to its cleaning position by the drive of the transfer cleaning blade solenoid
(SL6) only at the time of image position correction.
Once set to position, the cleaning blade remains as is but moves away from the transfer belt (released)
over the seam.
The transfer cleaning blade solenoid is a latching type, which can keep its steel core out or in to suit
either of two drive signals without the need for retention current.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

c. Transfer Belt Cleaning Web


The transfer belt cleaning web keeps removing dirt (toner) from the transfer belt at all times.
Depending on the timing, the web is fed about 4 mm at the end of a job when the cumulative reading of
sheet-to- sheet times reaches 524 sec.
In the case of continuous copying, on the other hand, the web is fed about 4 mm when SALT is executed
(every 100 sheets).
The rotation of the web motor is detected by the transfer belt cleaning web rotation sensor (PS10), which
monitors the clock plate on the external static eliminating roller shaft.
The length of the web is monitored by the transfer belt cleaning web length sensor (PS11) mounted to
the web feeding roller assembly. After indicating a message, the web rotation sensor (PS10) will detect faulty
rotation of the web motor if the web runs out because of continued copying, indicating ‘E076’ on the message
panel of the control panel.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

d. Polishing Roller
The polishing roller polishes the surface of the transfer belt to prevent adhesion of fixing oil to the
photosensitive drum, particularly in two-sided copying mode, thereby preventing foggy images.
The transfer belt is polished in response to a press on the power switch after having made 5,000 copies
(cumulative), and the operation is continued until the transfer belt has made 30 rotations.
The polishing roller is butted against the transfer belt when the polishing/oil removing motor (M15)
rotates clockwise and the polishing roller solenoid (SL18) turns on, rotating the cam through the control ring
and operating the push-on spring.
The polishing roller is moved away from the transfer belt when the solenoid turns off to move the cam
before it meets the seam.
The polishing roller rotates slightly to change its position of contact against the transfer belt when the
operation of the transfer belt lifter pushes the one-way clutch lever.
If the polishing/oil removing motor rotation speed deviates because of an error, ‘E018’ will be indicated
on the control panel.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

e. Oil Removing Roller


In two-sided copying mode, the side of paper which has been fixed with an image comes into contact
with the transfer belt, leaving fixing oil on the belt. If the transfer belt was allowed to rotate as is, the fixing oil
would move on to the photosensitive drum, adversely affecting the next copy image (e.g., fogging).
To prevent such a problem, the oil removing roller is used to remove fixing oil from the transfer belt in
two-sided copying mode or when paper is picked up from the multifeeder.
The oil removing roller is rotated and butted against the transfer belt when the polishing/oil removing
motor (M15) rotates counterclockwise.
The oil removing roller is released as the transfer belt is moved down by the movement of the transfer
belt lifter.

F. Pre-Fixing Feeding
The pre-fixing feeding assembly moves paper which has been separated by the separation charging
assembly to the fixing assembly.
The drive roller in the pre-fixing feeding assembly uses the drive of the pre-fixing feeding motor (M11) to
rotate two feeding belts to move paper. To improve paper movement, the pre-fixing feeding fan (FM7) is used
to keep copy stable on the belt from behind the feeding belt.
The feeding speed is switched over six steps to suit the fixing speed, thereby ensuring proper fixing
when making two-sided copies or when copying on transparencies. (For feeding speed, see chapter 3. G.
Fixing/Delivery Assembly, 7-a. “Controlling the Feeding Speed.”)

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

2. Controlling the Fixing Roller Temperature


The upper fixing roller and the lower fixing roller are each heated by a fixing heater (H1: 700W, H2:
500W). The surface temperature of the upper fixing roller is monitored by the thermistor THM1, and the
surface temperature of the lower roller is monitored by the thermistor THM2.
If the surface temperature of the fixing roller is too high,
→ The resistance of the thermistor decreases.
→ The voltage of the fixing roller surface temperature detection signal (THM1, THM2) lowers.
Based on the voltage value, the CPU on the DC controller PCB uses the upper fixing heater drive signal
(UHON) and the lower fixing heater drive signal (LHON) to control the fixing heaters so that the surface
temperatures of the upper roller and the lower roller will be specific values.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

3. Protection Mechanisms
The CLC1000 is equipped with four types of protection mechanisms used to prevent malfunction of the
fixing heater.
• The CPU monitors the voltage of the thermistors THM1 and THM2 and indicates ‘E000’ upon
detection of an error.

• The triac short-circuit detection circuit on the AC driver PCB monitors the drive of the fixing heater; if
the fixing heater is on when it should be off, it causes the power OFF signal (PWOFF*) to go ‘0’ so as
to cut power to the fixing heater.

• The thermistor error detection circuit on the DC controller PCB checks the thermistor for a short circuit
(230°C equivalent); if it detects a short-circuit, or if the thermistor doe not register about 50°C or more
two to three minutes after the fixing heater has turned on, it sends the power switch OFF signal
(PWOFF*) to turn off the power switch (SW2).

• If the internal temperature of the thermal switch of the upper fixing roller exceeds 230°C or the internal
temperature of the thermal switch of the lower fixing roller exceeds 230°C, the respective switch turns
off to cut off power to the fixing heater.

Once the contact of the thermal switch (TP1, TP2) opens, the thermal switch cannot be used
again unless cooled to 0°C or less. (The contact will not return to normal even after returning
to normal temperature.)

To reset ‘E000’,
1) Remove the cause.
2) Start service mode, and select ‘FUSER > FUNCTION’.
3) Press ‘E000-RLS’. (The notation <P> will change from ‘ERROR’ to ‘BUSY’ and to
‘ERROR’.)
4) Turn off and then on the power switch.

3. Driving the Fixing Cleaning Web

a. Upper Fixing Web


The upper fixing web used to clean the upper fixing roller is taken up by 0.45 mm when the upper fixing
web take-up solenoid (SL3) turns on and off.
The upper fixing web take-up solenoid turns on once for each eight sheets of paper.
The edge of the web is given a cut for identification of its remaining length.
When the web is taken up to the cut, the arm, which has been supported by the web, falls through the cut
to be detected by the web length sensor (S36).
An alert message will be indicated on the control panel when the sensor detects the sensor arm.
The upper web moves away from the upper fixing roller when the upper fixing web releasing solenoid
(SL4) tuns on.

b. Lower Fixing Web


The lower fixing web is used to clean the lower fixing roller by the drive of the lower fixing web motor
(M30).
The lower fixing web motor takes up the lower fixing web by 0.05 mm for each sheet of paper.
The dirt that remained after cleaning by the web is scraped by the lower fixing blade of a spring pressure
type.
The lower fixing web is not equipped with a mechanism that can detect its remaining length.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

4. Applying Fixing Oil


The CLC1000 uses a circulating type mechanism to apply oil.
The oil applying roller remains in contact with the upper fixing roller at all times, preventing offset by
supplying fixing oil to the roller.
The silicone oil inside the oil tank is drawn to the upper oil pan by the work of the oil pump solenoid
(SL2).
Such impurities as paper lint in the oil circulating in the fixing assembly is remove by the felt of the oil
applying roller and the filter inside the oil pump solenoid.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

5. Detecting the Level of Fixing Oil


The level of silicone oil inside the upper oil pan is monitored by the oil level sensor (PS6). The float
floating on the silicone oil moves up and down according to the level of the oil, enabling the oil level sensor to
detect the level in reference to the moving arm.
If the oil level sensor does not detect the arm at power-on, the oil pump solenoid repeats turning on and
off until the arm is detected. If the arm is still not detected after operating the oil pump solenoid for 10 min, the
‘Add Oil’ message will be indicated on the control panel.

6. Reciprocating Mechanism of the Thermistor


To prevent damage to the upper fixing roller by the thermistor (THM1), the thermistor is moved back and
forth along the axis of the upper fixing roller over a distance of 12 mm.
The thermistor is moved back and forth by transmitting the drive from the upper fixing web take-up
solenoid (SL3) through a one-way arm to the reciprocating cam.

7. Controlling the Fixing Speed

a. Fixing Speed
The CLC1000 controls the fixing speed to any of the six settings as shown in Table 3-611 to ensure
proper fixing independent of different copying modes.
In addition, the CLC1000 is capable of varying the fixing speed to produce a degree of shine on copies
to suit the preferences of the user.
A higher fixing speed decreases the shine on copies, providing a matt effect; on the other hand, a lower
fixing speed increases the shine on copies, providing a glossy effect.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

b. Controlling the Fixing Motor


The fixing motor is controlled to six different speeds by PLL control.
Figure 3-651 is a block diagram of the fixing motor controller circuit, which has the following functions:
• Turns on and off the fixing motor.
• Switches the speed of the fixing motor.
• Executes constant speed control on the fixing motor.
The fixing motor is turned on and off by the fixing motor fixing signal (M9D*).
The speed of the fixing motor is switched by the standard pulse signal (M9PLS), and the speed is kept at
a specific value by comparing the feedback clock signal (M9CLK) from the fixing motor against the reference
pulse signal.
To switch the speed of the fixing motor (fixing speed), the frequency of the reference pulse signal is
varied.
The DC controller PCB indicates ‘E014’ on the control panel if an error is found in the fixing motor as
identified by the following signals:

• The speed of rotation of the fixing motor deviates from the specified value, and the PLL lock signal
(M9PLL*) goes ‘1’.
• The current of the fixing motor is checked as the fixing motor current detection signal (M9CD); it
exceeds the specified value (overcurrent; M9CD is an analog signal).

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

8. De-Curling Roller
In general, toners of four different colors are fused to the fibers of paper to produce a color copy, and
wrapping the paper around the drum tends to curl the paper, possibly leading to jamming if left as is during
feeding or when picking up for the second side in two-sided copying mode.
The de-curling roller found between the fixing roller and the delivery roller is used to remove curling,
thereby limiting pick-up/feeding faults in two-sided copying.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

The presence/absence of paper or a jam is checked in reference to the presence/absence of paper at a


specific sensor at such times as programmed in the CPU in advance.
The CLC1000 remembers the ‘number of copies remaining at time of jamming’ and ‘copying mode’ so
that the user need not reset these settings after opening the front cover for jam removal.
The CLC1000 will assume the presence of a jam if any one of the sensors is on when the power is turned
on.
If paper is left behind where there is no paper sensor (on the transfer belt for example), a jam is identified
when the paper turns on a sensor while being moved by the drive of warm-up operation.
If a jam occurs during continuous copying, copies on the delivery side with reference to the jam will be
processed normally provided that the feeding system for such copies is independent of the feeding system
used by the jammed paper.

VII.CONTROL PANEL
A. Outline
The CLC1000 consists of a control panel relay PCB, a liquid crystal display panel capable of displaying
200 x 640 dots of information, tenkey PCB, and a sub key PCB (including a pilot lamp); the control panel has
the following functions:
1 Data communication
2 LCD processing
3 LCD contrast adjustment
4 Touch switch input

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

2. LCD Display Processing


The CPU on the reader controller PCB sends commands to the LCD controller at such times as
programmed in advance. The LCD controller, on the other hand, interprets and executes these commands.
The LCD controller performs ON/OFF control over the display as programmed.
The LCD controller writes display character codes in the RAM for display memory in sequence; the RAM
data is then displayed on the display panel in response to the timing signal generated by the LCD controller.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

4. Touch Switch
The keys on the touch switch panel and the control panel controller PCB are connected as shown in
Figure 3-703. The touch switch panel consists of two sheets of glass coated with transparent conducting
membranes and joined with spacers in between; it has a matrix of 12 rows and 20 columns of keys.
When the surface of the top plate is pressed by a finger, the two plates of glass come into contact to
allow electrical continuity.
A pair of electrodes are connected and, as in the case of a conventional matrix, X/Y coordinates may be
identified. In other words, the correspondence between a key scan signal from the control panel controller
circuit and an input signal to the control panel controller PCB allows the control panel controller PCB to
recognize which key has been pressed.

VIII. EDITOR
A. Outline
The CLC1000's editor is a static type editor consisting of two tablets, one each for reading points in the
horizontal (X) direction and points in the vertical (Y) direction, and a pen switch.
The controller PCB recognizes the area indicated by the pen switch on the editor.
The CLC1000's tablet has electrode wires arranged at intervals of 6 mm; the static bond between the
electrode wire and the pen switch represent each specific point pressed by the pen.

B. Operation
When the pen switch presses the top tablet, the CPU on the control PCB applies pulses to the electrode
wires through both decoder of tablets as in 1, 2, ... n-1, n, n+1, and so forth.
The contact between a pulse and the pen switch results in a static bond, and the level of voltage is read
into the controller PCB through the pen switch. (Figure 3-801)
The voltage is then converted by the A/D converter circuit on the controller PCB into digital signals and
then further into a signal representing a spatial area in mm through computation by the CPU for
communication to the copier.

Since the editor identifies the point of input with reference to static bonding, a thick original (4
REF.
mm or less) may be placed on it.
On the other hand, it cannot accommodate originals made of conducting material, pressure
sensitive material, or carbon-backed paper.

3. OPERATION AND TIMING

X. POWER SUPPLY
A. Power Supply
The CLC1000's DC power is sent to each load through each controller PCB from three power supply
PCBs (DCP1U, DCP1L, DCP2).
The DC power supply PCB 1 supplies DC voltage in conjunction with the power switch, and the DC
power supply PCB 2 supplies DC voltage operating independently of the power switch.
Figure 3-1001 shows the supply route of AC power to each power supply PCB; the voltage and the
destination of the output of each power supply PCB are as shown in Figure 3-1002/3.
The CLC1000 is equipped with a power-saving switch (SW8) so that power to the cassette heater may
be supplied “at all times” or “only when the main switch is on.” Table 3-1001 shows heaters whose power
conditions differ depending on the setting of the power-saving switch (SW8).
You may change the conditions for the activation of the cassette heater using service mode. As long as
the power saving switch is on, the cassette heater turns on according to the settings even when the power
switch is off.
Since the DC power to the DC controller PCB and the reader controller PCB is cut off when the power
switch is turned off, these PCBs are equipped with a lithium battery for their RAMs.

B. Protection Mechanisms for the Power Supply Circuits


The power circuits (DCP1U, DCP1L, DCP2) are equipped with an overcurrent detection circuit, and a
protection mechanism is activated upon detection of a short-circuit to cut off the output.
If such a condition occurs, turn off the switch, disconnect the power plug, remove the cause that
activated the protection mechanism, and turn on the power once again. The protection circuit may be reset
by keeping the AC power of DCP1 off for about 30 sec and then turning it on once again.

CHAPTER 4
MECHANICAL SYSTEM

In this chapter, the CLC1000’ s mechanical characteristics are explained while showing how its mechanisms
operate and how to disassemble/assemble its parts.
1. Be sure to disconnect the power plug before disassembly/assembly work.
2. Unless otherwise specified, assemble the parts by reversing the steps used to disassemble them.
3. Be sure to identify the screws by type (length, diameter) and location.
4. One of the mounting screws on each cover is equipped with a washer to protect against static electricity;
be sure to use the washer when installing such covers.
5. Be sure to fit a washer on the mounting screw used for grounding wires and varistors to ensure electrical
continuity.
6. As a rule, do not operate the machine with any of its parts removed.
7. When moving the hopper assembly up/down, place a newspaper or the like on the floor in front of the
machine to prevent soiling with falling toner.
8. Keep the following in mind when handling the CCD unit for image position correction:
• Do not touch the LED assembly or the dust-proofing glass.
• Do not subject the unit as a hole to a shock, as it is adjusted to high optical precision.
• Do not apply excessive force when holding the unit to avoid deforming the shutter assembly.
9. Keep the following in mind when replacing the DC power supply unit:
If you find a melting fuse in the DC power unit, replace the DC power supply unit as a whole. (Mere
replacement of the fuse could lead to damage on the machine, as such would not remove the cause of the
melting fuse.)
10. Try not to touch the image position correction mirror unit unless you are replacing it. (Avoid any
cleaning, if possible.)
11. Do not clean the No. 3 mirror (inside the laser scanner) mounted for each color.

• Clean the photosensitive drum with a flannel
cloth coated with toner. You need not re-
place the photosensitive drum if it is free of
toner cake and its surface is free of
scratches.
• Clean the cleaning blade with lint-free pa-
per. You need not replace it if its edge is free
of scratches. Thereafter, put lubricant on
lint-free paper, and coat the edge of the
cleaning blade evenly with lubricant.

Points to Note
If the lubricant is not even, the copies may
carry white, vertical lines.
• Limit the application to the edge of the
blade, i.e., where it will come into contact
with the drum.
• Do not rub the edge with force. Tap lightly
over the edge to avoid damage.
• For the edge, apply it in three strokes in
the direction of the arrow. (same direc-

n Notes on Using the Cleaner Lubricant


You must shake the container well before removing its cap. When applying to the cleaning blade, be sure
the application is uniform; uneven application will allow the lubricating ingredients to slide over the cleaning
blade and adhere to the photosensitive drum, causing vertical white lines on the copies.
If such a problem is noted,
1) Using the color for which vertical white streaks are noted, make 10 solid copies in continuous mode.
• This step may correct the problem.
2) Remove the photosensitive drum, and using a cloth coated with the color in question, wipe the surface of
the drum; then, install the photosensitive drum.
• Remove the lubricant adhering to the photosensitive drum as indicated.

H. Variable Resistors (VR), Light-Emitting Diodes (LED), and


Check Pins by PCB

Of the variable resistors (VR), light-emitting di-


odes (LED), and check pins used in the CLC1000,
those that are needed when servicing the machine
in the field are discussed.

1. Do not touch the VRs and check


pins that are not mentioned herein;
they are for factory use only and
require special instruments and
high precision for adjustment.
2. Some LEDs emit light because of
leakage current; this is a normal
condition and must be kept in mind.
3. VRs that may be used in the field
