  • Page 23: Electrophotographic Processing Mechanism

    2.4.1 Electrophotographic Processing Mechanism Electrophotographic process The overview of the electrophotographic process is described below. Electrification DC power is applied to the CH roller to evenly negatively electrify the surface of the OPC drum. Exposure The LED head irradiates light on the surface of the OPC drum that is charged with a negative electrical load.
  • Page 24 Electrification A negative DC power is applied to the electrification roller to evenly negatively electrify the surface of the OPC drum. Power supply Electrification roller unit OPC drum Exposure The LED head irradiates light on the surface of the OPC drum that is charged with a negative electrical load.
  • Page 25 Development The negatively charged toner comes in contact with the OPC drum to fuse the electrostatic latent image by electrostatic force, to create a significant image on the surface of the OPC drum. The sponge roller precipitates toner on the development roller. The toner is then negatively electrified.
  • Page 26 Fuser The toner image transferred on the paper is fused on the paper by heat and pressure when the paper passes through the heat roller and backup roller. The Teflon coated heat roller is heated by a 800W or 350W internal halogen lamp, and backup roller is heated by a 50W internal halogen lamp.

  • Page 28 Paper Supplied from the 1st Tray Paper proceeds when the paper supply motor turns (CCW) and the paper supply clutch is connected, until the IN1 sensor turns ON. When the IN1 sensor is turned ON, a certain volume of paper is further transported until it is against the 1st resist roller.
  • Page 29 When the IN sensor is turned ON, a certain volume of paper is further transported against the regist roller. (this corrects paper skew) The paper is conveyed to the AR-C360P when the electromagnetic clutch which delivers power that the register strike motor is turning (CW) and the thrust reliance of a paper is completed to the 1st register strike roller is connected.
  • Page 30 Paper Supplied from MPT In the usual case, sheet receiving is depressed by the arm for rise and fall at a home position. When a regist motor rotates in the direction of (b), the arm for rise and fall drives and sheet receiving is rotated.

  • Page 32 Conveyor Belt The conveyor belt motor drives the conveyor belt when turning in the direction of the arrow (a). The belt unit consists of one conveyor roller that is directly under the drum for each color, with the conveyor belt in between the drum. When a specified voltage is applied, the conveyor belt and conveyor roller transfers the toner image on the drum for each color, then feeds the paper on the conveyor belt to the fuser unit.
  • Page 33 ID Unit Up/Down Operations The C-ID motor drives the ID unit up and down. Figure 2-10-a indicates ID unit operations during color printing. When the C-ID motor rotates (CCW), the lift uplink slides to the left, and as indicated in Figure 2-10-a, each ID unit moves DOWN.
  • Page 34 Fuser Unit and Paper Output The fuser unit and discharge roller is driven by a single DC motor. The heater roller turns when the fuser motor turns in the direction of the arrow (a). This roller fuses the toner image on the paper with heat and pressure. At the same time, the four discharge rollers are activated to discharge paper.
  • Page 35 Double-Side Printer Unit When the double-side Printer Unit receives double-side print instructions, the sepa- rator is opened by the solenoid after one side of the paper fed from the tray is completely printed, then the path is switched to the double-side printer unit. At this time, roller (1) turns in the direction of arrow (a), therefore, the paper is retracted to the undersurface of a double-side printer unit.

    Color Drift Correction The AR-C360P comes with several ID units and LED heads, therefore, causes color drift. This mechanical color drift can automatically be corrected with the following procedures. Automatically Corrected Color Drift X Axis Color Drift (position off-alignment due to LED head)

  • Page 39: Paper Jam Detector

    Paper Jam Detector The AR-C360P detects paper jam during printing after turning on the power source. If there is any paper jam detected, the printing process is immediately canceled. In this case, open the cover, remove the paper that is jammed, and close the cover to resume printing.

    2.10 Toner Low Detection • Structure This device consists of a constant speed rotating agitation gear and agitation bar. Agitation gear Projection Agitation bar • Detection The minimum height length of stay (OFF time) of a target board which attached the toner low level state in the end of a churning bar is measured and detected by the sensor.
  • Page 42 Toner High level State • The agitation bar interlocks and turns with the agitation gear. • Since there is a toner even if a agitation bar reaches the maximum height, the other side of the bar is still inside the toner. Therefore, Agitation bar the agitation bar turns by the force of the agitation gear.
  • Page 43 Toner High Level State (at 37ppm TNRSNS t1<0.85 T=2.3 Toner Low Level State (at 37ppm TNRSNS t1>0.85 T=2.3 • After a toner supply start, when a toner low sate is detected 20 consecutive times, it is recognized as the toner being low. (After recognizing toner low, then toner low is displayed after printing an equivalent of 5% of 200 A4 sheets.) The toner in a toner cartridge is lost.

  • Page 44: Paper Size Detection

    2.11 Paper Size Detection A cam is interlocked with the paper guide of the paper cassette, then four tab-pieces via this cam drives the system according to the paper guide setting position. When the paper cassette is attached to the printer, the micro-switch detects the state of the tab-piece and then recognizes the size of the paper.
