  • Page 19: Basic Operation

    Chapter 2 2.1 Basic Operation 2.1.1 Basic Operation 0009-2508 The finisher is designed to deliver copies arriving from its host machine, and its modes of delivery include simple stacking, job offset, and staple. All operations involved in these modes are controlled by the finisher controller PCB, according to the appropriate commands from the host machine.
  • Page 20: Overview Of The Electrical Circuitry

    Chapter 2   2.1.2 Overview of the Electrical Circuitry 0009-2509 The finisher's sequence of operation is controlled by the finisher controller PCB. The finisher controller PCB is a 16-bit microprocessor (CPU), and is used for communication with the host machine (serial) in addition to controlling the finisher's sequence of operations. The finisher controller PCB responds to the various commands coming from the host machine through a serial communications line to drive solenoids, motors, and other loads.
  • Page 21: Feed Drive System

    Chapter 2 2.2 Feed Drive System 2.2.1 Overview 0009-2510 This product consists of the Finisher unit and the Saddle Stitcher unit. The Finisher unit simply stacks sheets delivered from a host machine, offsets a stack job, or staples and delivers the sheets to the trays according to commands delivered from a host machine.
  • Page 22: Constraction Of The Control System

    Chapter 2   2.2.2 Constraction of the Control System 0009-2511 The copy sent from the host machine is delivered to the ejection tray, escape tray, or processing tray according to the ejection type. Job offset or stapling is performed, according to the instruction from the host machine, for copy delivered to the staple tray. When ejecting from the processing tray, rear end assist guide is used in addition to the stack ejection roller to eject the stack.

  • Page 25: Paper Delivery Path

    Chapter 2 2.2.3 Paper Delivery Path 0009-2512 <Overview> There are three ejection paths to tray 1 and 2 depending on the ejection processing. There is only one paper ejection path to the escape tray. <Straight Ejection (Destination: Tray 1/ Tray 2)> When the equipment is set to non-sort, all copies are ejected through the following path.

  • Page 27 Chapter 2 <Buffer/Processing Tray Path (Destination: Tray 1/ Tray 2)> This is the copy ejection path when the equipment is set to sort for A4, B5, or LTR paper size. Feed two sheets of paper to buffer (two or three sheets if 2-point stapling). Then they are aligned and stapled in the processing tray and ejected.
  • Page 28 Chapter 2   3) The first delivery roller descends and works together with the stack delivery roller to deliver the 1st and 2nd paper toward the processing tray. At the same time, the stack in the processing tray is delivered toward the delivery tray by the return roller and rear end assist guide.
  • Page 29 Chapter 2 5) The 1st and 2nd paper delivered to the processing tray are aligned and then delivered to the delivery tray. Stack ejection roller Return roller Rear end assist guide F-2-13 <Escape Ejection (Destination: Escape Tray)> When the escape tray is specified as the destination of paper ejection in the non-sort mode, the paper delivered from the host machine to the finisher is rerouted to the path shown below by the escape inlet flapper and ejected to the escape tray.
  • Page 30: Intermediate Process Tray Assembly

    Chapter 2   2.3 Intermediate Process Tray Assembly 2.3.1 Stack Job Offset 0009-2513 Job offset operation offsets paper stack to the front or rear when ejecting to sort the paper stack. The forward/backward movement of the copy delivered to the processing tray is controlled by the front aligning plate and rear aligning plate.

  • Page 32: Processing Tray Paper Stacking Operation

    Chapter 2   2.3.2 Processing Tray Paper Stacking Operation 0009-2514 When the rear end of the paper exits the 1st delivery roller, the paper is delivered to the processing tray by the stack delivery roller and return roller and then pushed against the processing tray stopper.
  • Page 33: Offset Operation

    Chapter 2 2.3.3 Offset Operation 0009-2515 Each sheet is pulled forward or backward using the front aligning plate and the rear aligning plate.

  • Page 34: Rear End Assist Operation

    Chapter 2   2.3.4 Rear End Assist Operation 0009-2516 In order to improve stacking performance when ejecting copies delivered to the processing tray, a rear end assist guide is used in addition to the stack ejection roller to support the rear end of the stack during stack ejection.
  • Page 35: Stack Delivery Operation

    Chapter 2 2.3.5 Stack Delivery Operation 0009-2517 The stack is ejected each time three large size sheets*1 or five small size sheets*2 are offset on the processing tray. The swing motor turns and the swing guide descends. This causes the upper/lower stack delivery rollers to hold the stack.
  • Page 36: Staple Operation

    Chapter 2   2.4 Staple Operation 2.4.1 Stapler Unit 0009-2519 The staple motor (M111) is used to perform stapling operation. This motor rotates the cam one turn for stapling. The home position of this cam is detected by the staple home position sensor (PI50).

  • Page 38: Shifting The Stapler Unit

    Chapter 2   2.4.2 Shifting the Stapler Unit 0009-2520 The stapler unit is shifted by the stapler shift motor (M105). The home position is detected by the stapler shift home position sensor (PI110). When there is a staple command from the host machine, the stapler shifts to the staple ready position, which depends on the stapling position and paper size.

  • Page 45 Chapter 2 <Second and Subsequent Sheets> The finisher controller PCB starts the swing motor (M106) and lowers the swing guide when the rear end of the 2nd paper passes the 1st delivery roller. The stack delivery motor is reversed. The stack delivery motor rotates the stack delivery roller (upper) and return roller and sends the paper to the processing tray.
  • Page 46 Chapter 2   <Last Sheet> When alignment of the last sheet completes, the finisher controller PCB moves the aligning plate to alignment position with the aligning motor (M103/M104) (with the paper held with the aligning plate). Then the finisher controller PCB staples at the specified staple position. After stapling, the finisher controller PCB starts the swing motor (M106) and lowers the swing guide.

  • Page 51: Shutter Operation

    Chapter 2 2.5.2 Shutter Operation 0009-2523 When tray 1 passes the delivery section with paper already stacked, the stacked paper may get caught by the delivery section. A shutter is provided at the delivery section to prevent this. The shutter closes when tray 1 passes the delivery section. This is performed even when no paper is stacked.
  • Page 52: Detecting Jams

    Chapter 2   2.6 Detecting Jams 2.6.1 Detecting Jams (Finisher Unit) 0009-2524 The following sensors are used to detect the presence of paper and to determine that paper is delivered properly. - Inlet sensor (PI103) - Delivery sensor (PI104) - Escape tray path sensor (PI118) A jam is identified by checking whether paper is present at each sensor at the timing programmed in the memory of the microcomputer (CPU) on the finisher controller PCB.
