Chapter 2 Principles of Operation

2.1.04 Automatic Fall-back Mode The Okifax 1000 will change the message transmitting speed according to the following fall-back plan. The Okifax 1000 will first transmit a page of the message at 9600 bps. The receiving station will continuously monitor the received data. If the receiving station detects six or more consecutive error lines during reception of a single page, or if the total number of errors detected during the reception of a single page exceeds 10% of the data on the transmitted page, it will return an RTN (Retrain Negative) signal to the transmitting station upon termination of the page reception. With an RTN signal received, the transmitting station will downgrade its speed by one level (to 7200 bps in this case) and continue transmission of the next page. Similarly, should the transmitting station again receive an RTN signal from the receiving station, it will downgrade speed another level. Copyright 1997, Okidata, Division of OKI America, Inc.

2.1.06 Error Correction Mode (ECM) The Okifax 1000 features Error Correction Mode (ECM). When communicating with a remote unit that also has ECM, this feature provides error-free transmission. What follows is an explanation of how ECM works. · The transmit machine groups image data into blocks and transmits one block of data at a time to the receive machine. At the end of each block, a PPS (Partial Page Signal) is transmitted. · The receive machine stores the data block in memory and checks each frame within that block for errors. - Modified Huffman assigns a binary code to consecutive recurring bits of white or black. The codes must add up to a total of 1728 bits, which is the Main Scan Rate established by CCITT. - Modified Read uses a comparison technique. The line being coded is compared to the previous line and differences are noted. Codes are then assigned to reflect the differences between the two lines. · If no errors are detected, the receiver sends MCF (Message Confirmation) which requests the transmit machine to transmit the next data block. · If an error is detected by the receive machine, it transmits the frame number of the defective frame back to the transmit machine in a signal called PPR (Partial Page Request). · The transmit machine will then re-transmit the frame to the receive machine as a Partial Page. · The receive machine rechecks the Partial Page, and (if all frames are correct) the receive machine transmits MCF (Message Confirmation). · The next data block is then transmitted.

2.2 TRANSMITTER THEORY OF OPERATION 2.2.01 Typical Transmission When a telephone number is dialed through the Okifax 1000 (either manually or through auto-dial), a connection will be established with the receiving station through the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). When the call is answered, the operator will hear the Called Equipment Device (CED) tone from the receiving station. With CED received, the transmit machine acknowledges that the connection is established and proceeds to the CCITT T.30 300 bps handshake procedure. NOTE: Refer to the Receive and Transmit overviews of 300 bps handshaking.

Handshake Procedure Block Diagrams for functional

Refer to the Transmit Block Diagram for an overview of G3 Transmit Operations. When the DIS (Digital Identification Signal) is received, G3 mode transmission is possible and the Okifax 1000 starts scanning the document, page by page. The image data is temporarily stored in FIFO (First In First Out) memory until it becomes valid for transmission. In about 3 seconds, the machine will receive CSI (Called Subscriber Identification) from the distant station. After reading the document pages and storing the image data in memory, the machine begins the handshake with the distant station. If the 9600 bps training is successfully completed, the machine will start transmitting the image data in digital, coded form. Training is a high speed data pattern transmitted to the receive modem. This training data pattern causes the receive modem to synchronize with the transmit modem. If the training fails due to the line condition, an automatic fallback to a lower rate will occur. The result will be indicated on the LCD display. As the machine transmits each page of image data, the page count on the LCD display will increment. Training is used : · To test the line condition for valid transmissions at a particular data rate. The TCF consists of 100 binary 0s transmitted in a burst. At least 98% accuracy must be achieved before transmission can take place at that data rate. · By the receiving station in setting preliminary equalization for the current line conditions.

2.2.03 Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) The automatic document feeder transfers document sheets to the scan unit automatically, one at a time. The following diagram shows the mechanism used for detecting the leading and trailing edges of a document. When a document is placed on the feeder, it is sensed by PC1. This causes the feed rollers to activate, feeding the document. The document is fed to the PC2 lever, where the leading edge of the document is detected. When transmit (or copy) begins, the document is fed by the transmit stepper motor to the start scan position where reading start. The documents trailing edge is detected when the PC2 lever is released. If another document is on the feeder, the process is repeated. The separation rubber holds back the top originals and allows only one document to be fed into the scanner area. The separation rubber and ADF rollers should be cleaned or replaced according to the cleaning schedule (in Section 3 of this manual) to assure proper operation. The ADF capacity is 30 pages of 20 lb. bond. Documents are placed on the feeder image face side down. When feeding multiple pages, the bottom page is fed first, working toward the top.

2.2.04 Scanner Assembly The Okifax 1000 uses a 1728-element direct contact type image scanning sensor. LEDs are located at the bottom of the scan glass and image sensors are located at the top of the glass. When the document reaches the scanning unit, it passes directly in front of the image sensor. The LEDs illuminate the document and the light reflects back to the image sensors. This image data is sent to the printer control board (PCNT-150). The transmitted document length is limited to 14 inches; however, the machine can be modified for longer transmissions. (See Transmitting Long Documents in the Users Documentation). Transmission will stop and a line disconnect will occur if the end of the document is not detected within 14 inches after scanning begins (unless the unit is set for unlimited transmission.) The message RE-LOAD DOCUMENT CONFIRM AND "STOP" will be displayed if the document does not reach the scanning position within 5 seconds after the start of a document feed. NOTE: When a jam condition is displayed on the operator panel during message transmission, the machine will stop, but its receiving capability will remain active.

2.2.05 Encoder Scanned image data received by the PCNT is sent to the encoder/decoder (ENC/DEC) on the MCNT-150 board. The image data is compressed by the ENC/DEC according to the Modified Huffman (MH) and Modified Read (MR) encoding scheme, or MH only. The use of MH only or both MH and MR is determined by a function setting. Data is then stored in the FIFO area in one byte units. Fill bits are inserted if the length of one encoded line is less than the minimum scan time of the remote unit. Data is transferred to the NCU board, then sent to the line board for transmission over the phone line. Copyright 1997, Okidata, Division of OKI America, Inc. All rights reserved.

2.3 RECEIVER THEORY OF OPERATION NOTE: Refer to the G3 Receive Operation Block Diagram

.

2.3.01 Operator Panel Through the operator panel, the user initiates manual receive operations and sets auto-answer options. 2.3.02 Line Board The line board provides the RJ-11 connection used to receive data from the PSTN or PBX. 2.3.03 Network Control Board (NCU) The NCU receives the modulated data from the line board and sends it to the modem (located on the MCNT board). The operation of the NCU in the receive mode is very similar to the transmit mode. However, during receive operations, the NCU also functions as an amplifier for the received signal. 2.3.04 Modem The modem demodulates the data from the G3 (9.6, 7.2, 4.8, or 2.4K bps) scheme that was determined during handshaking. The data is then sent to the read-only memory for temporary storage. The storage time is dependent on whether the machine is printing real-time or from memory. 2.3.05 Decoder The decoder decodes the MH, MR, or MMR data from the RAM into lines of picture data that are 1,728 bits in length. After the data has been received, demodulated, and decoded, it is transferred to the PCNT board. 2.3.06 Document Size Since the available printing area of the printer is smaller than the paper size, document contents may be missed on both sides of the paper, or a document image having the same length as the printing paper may be split into separate pages during printing. To prevent this, the Okifax 1000 automatically sets the proper reduction ratio within the range of 90 to 100% if the RX REDUCTION function has been set ON. If a received document image is longer than the available printing length, the excess part of the image is eliminated. If the SPLIT PRINT function has been set ON, the excess image will be printed on the next page. Copyright 1997, Okidata, Division of OKI America, Inc. All rights reserved.

2.5.04 Charging Charging applies -1.3 Kvdc to the charge roller. The charge roller contacts the image drum surface. The charge roller has two layers: a conductive layer and a surface protective layer. The surface layer is flexible, which assures proper contact with the photosensitive drum. The drum surface charges to approximately -750 vdc.

2.5.05 Exposing The image drum has four layers. · Carrier Transfer Layer (CTL) · Carrier Generation Layer (CGL) · Underlayer (UL) · Aluminum Base The CTL and CGL make up the organic photo conductor layer (OPC), which is about 20 micrometers (m m) thick. When light from the LED head irradiates the image drum surface, the light energy generates positive and negative carriers in the CGL. The positive carriers are moved to the CTL by an electrical field acting on the image drum. The negative carriers flow into the aluminum layer (ground).

The positive carriers moved to the CTL combine with the negative charges on the image surface

(accumulated by the contact charge of the charge roller), lowering the potential on the image drum surface. The resultant drop in the potential of the irradiated part of the image drum surface forms an electrostatic latent image on it. The surface potential on this irradiated part of the image drum is approximately -100 vdc.

2.5.06 Developing The electrostatic latent image formed on the image drum surface is developed into a visible image. Developing takes place when contact is made between the image drum and the developing roller. As the toner supply roller rotates, toner is absorbed into the sponge type roller material.

A charged particle will be attracted to a particle having a MORE POSITIVE charge than its own. The developing roller surface is charged to -300 vdc and the toner supply roller is charged to -450 vdc. Since the development roller is charged more positive than the toner supply roller, the toner on the toner supply roller is attracted to the developing roller. The toner on the developing roller contacts the doctor blade, forming a thin coat of toner on the developing roller surface.

The exposed portion of the image drum contains a more positive charge than the development roller (-100 vdc vs -300 vdc). Therefore, toner is attracted to the exposed areas of the image drum, making the electrostatic latent image visible.

NOTE: The toner supply roller and the developing roller are supplied with the bias voltages required during the developing process. The toner supply roller is charged to -450 vdc. The developing roller is charged to -300 vdc. Copyright 1997, Okidata, Division of OKI America, Inc. All rights reserved.

2.5.07 Transfer The transfer roller is made of a conductive sponge material. The roller keeps the paper in constant contact with the image drum. Paper is placed over the image drum surface. A positive charge (opposite in polarity to the toner) is applied to the paper from the reverse side. A charged particle will be attracted to a particle having a MORE POSITIVE charge than its own. A high positive charge is applied to the transfer roller by the power supply board. This induced charge (on the surface of the transfer roller) is transferred to the paper when contact is made between the transfer roller and the paper. The lower side of the paper is positively charged. The negatively charged toner (on the photosensitive drum) is transferred to the upper side of the paper because of the positive charge on the lower side of the paper.

2.5.08 Fusing After transfer, the toner image is fused to the paper by heat and pressure. The paper passes between the fusing roller and the pressure roller. The fusing roller has a teflon coating and contains a 400 watt halogen lamp. A thermistor (which contacts the fusing roller) maintains the fusing roller temperature at approximately 150 degrees Celsius. A thermostat cuts off the voltage supply to the lamp if there is an abnormal temperature rise. The pressure roller provides 2.5 Kg of pressure. This is generated by the pressure springs at each side of the roller.

2.5.10 Printing Refer to the Printing Process Diagram Printing is accomplished as follows. · Approximately - 1.3 Kvdc is supplied to the charge roller. This causes the drum to charge to approximately - 750 vdc. · The LED head is turned ON in accordance with signals from the printer control board. This causes a latent electrostatic image to be formed on the surface of the drum. · Through the development process, a toner image replaces the electrostatic image. · A + 1 Kvdc charge is applied to the transfer roller. This causes the toner image to be transferred to the receive paper. · Heat and pressure cause the toner image to become fused to the receive paper. The 150 degree Centigrade fusing temperature is attained by turning a 400 watt halogen lamp ON. The fusing temperature is controlled by a thermistor. In the event of a thermistor failure, a temperature fuse will OPEN, turning off the quartz lamp, and preventing equipment damage. · The residual toner is removed from the drum. .

2.6 SENSORS AND SWITCHES 2.6.01 Paper Jam Detection Paper jam detection monitors the location of paper when the printer is powered ON and during printing. If any of the following jams are present, the printing process is interrupted and the message PAPER JAM will be displayed on the LCD. To return to the printing process, the paper jam condition MUST be cleared. This is accomplished by opening the upper cover, clearing the jam, and closing the cover. Paper Outlet Jam This jam occurs if, · The paper does NOT pass over the outlet sensor within a pre-determined period of time, however, the paper has already passed over the paper sensor. Paper Size Error The time interval between when the paper contacts the paper sensor and the outlet sensor determines which size (length) paper is being used. This error occurs if, · The paper size of the loaded paper differs by + 45 mm or more from the paper size set by the menu. Cover Open Switch When the stacker cover is opened, the cover open microswitch on the sub-power supply board (PSUB-150) is deactivated. This disables the + 38 vdc and the high voltage power supply circuit. As a result, all high voltage outputs are interrupted. At the same time, the CVOPN signal is sent to the main control board (MCNT-150) to notify it of the OFF state of the microswitch. The MCNT-150 executes the cover open routine. The operation panel displays the message COVER OPEN.

2.6.02 Toner Low Sensor The toner well of the image drum cartridge contains a toner agitator. Whenever the image drum rotates, the toner agitator attempts to turn. A spring clip in the bottom of the toner well (along with the proper amount of toner) holds the agitator at the bottom of the well. However, when toner is distributed unevenly or an insufficient amount of toner is in the well, the toner agitator will rotate. Therefore, as long as the toner well contains an adequate supply of evenly distributed toner, the toner agitator will not rotate. The toner sensor lever has a magnet embedded in it. Whenever the toner agitator is positioned at the bottom of the toner well, the toner sensor lever is magnetically attracted to the toner agitator. This causes the toner sensor lever to be lifted from the path of the toner sensor. During a low toner condition (less than 20 grams of toner remaining), the toner agitator will rotate continuously. This causes the toner sensor to turn ON / OFF as the image drum rotates. The operator panel will then display the TONER LOW message. During an unevenly distributed toner condition, the toner agitator will rotate until the toner is distributed sufficiently. This causes the toner sensor to turn ON / OFF for only a few image drum rotations. The operator panel will not display an error message since this is normal printer operation. If the toner sensor remains in an ON condition, the operator panel will display the TONER SNS message.

Chapter 3 Maintenance & Disassembly

3.1 MAINTENANCE 3.1.01 General Information This section lists the parts replacement, adjustment, cleaning, and lubrication procedures. Disassembly should not be performed unless absolutely necessary. NEVER perform disassembly on a malfunctioning unit until you have followed the failure analysis procedures in Section Four of this Service Handbook. Follow the procedures listed in Adjustments and Service Settings. Counters may have to be reset and adjustments may be required when either consumables or parts are replaced. Failure to perform these procedures could result in unnecessary service calls. The Okifax 1000 is a xerographic device. Cleaning procedures must be performed correctly if high print quality is to be achieved. 3.1.02 Maintenance Tools The following tools are required to service the unit. · #2 Phillips screwdriver (with magnetic tip) · Straight-slot screwdriver · Needle nose pliers (4 inch) · 5.5 mm wrench · Digital multimeter · Shop vacuum with toner filter · Soft, lint-free cloth · All-purpose cleaner · Dow Corning Molycoat BR-2 or Molycoat EM-30L or equivalent 3.1.03 Maintenance Precautions · Do not disassemble the unit if it is operating normally. · Before starting disassembly and assembly, always power OFF the unit and detach the AC power cord. · Detach the interface cable, if installed. · Do not remove parts unnecessarily: try to keep disassembly to a minimum.

· Use the recommended maintenance tools. · When disassembling, follow the listed sequence. Failure to follow the correct sequence may result in damaged parts. · Since screws, collars and other small parts are easily lost, they should be temporarily attached to the original positions. · When handling circuit boards use extreme care.
