Test Points on the Printer Mechanism
Before you replace the main circuit board to see if the printer is repaired, you need to check the
printer mechanism. If the motor or the coils are shorted, replacing the main circuit board will
not fix the problem. The following explains how to test the motors and coils.

Test Points on the Main Circuit Board Unit
After a main circuit board unit failure, one basic method for diagnosing the cause of the problem
on the main circuit board unit is to check the power supply line. Use the following table to check
the power supply line. First, check step number 1, and proceed to the next step, if that is not the
problem.

unusual input circuit.
Always replace the fuse after

removing the cause of the pre-arcing.
If you do not remove the cause of the
pre-arcing, and replace this fuse, the
problem may expand to
misoperation. Also, always use the
specified type of fuse when replacing.

Assembly and Disassembly
Before Assembly and Disassembly

Always observe the following precautions when disassembling and assembling the printer.
CAUTION:
Always remove the power supply unit from the printer before working. Power is flowing
in the internal circuit board even if you turn the printer off with the power supply switch.
You can damage the printer if you work with the power supply still attached.
Remove all peripheral equipment connected to the printer before starting your work.
Do not perform any work that is not described in this chapter. Doing so can result in
injuries or damage to the printer.
Do not touch the FPC or the FFC pins with your hands.
About this Chapter
Procedures
This chapter provides the procedures for assembling. Reverse them to disassemble the printer.
Assembly is organized into “Assembling the Mechanism Assembly (M-U675),” “Assembling the
Thermal Mechanism Assembly (M-T6000II),” and “Assembling the TM-H6000II.” Each section
is further divided into “Pre-assembly” and “Assembly.”
Do “Pre-assembly” steps first, and then do “Assembly” after you have assembled the parts into
units to some degree.

< Printing operation when printing one character >
This section explains the printing operation for a 9 × 9 dot matrix.
Characters are printed by energizing the print solenoids at a timing corresponding to the head
carriage movement position, using the carriage motor phase change signal as a reference signal.
The print head unit moves approximately 0.339 mm with a one step rotation (7.5°) of the
carriage motor.
To print the number "2," print solenoid numbers 2 and 9 are energized in sync with the carriage
motor phase change signal. Next, print solenoid number 8 is energized in sync with TnH,
delayed by a half dot time interval. The number "2" is printed by repeating this process.

Platen open/close operation
The platen adjustment screw attaches the platen to the platen lever. The platen opens and closes
to prepare for feeding a check sheet. When the lever coil is energized while the lever drive motor
rotates, it releases the linkage of the lever ratchet wheel to the paper feed trigger attraction plate,
and the lever drive gear rotates the prescribed amount in the direction shown by the arrow. This
rotation is transmitted by the lever drive transmission gear, rotating the platen lever open/close
cam 180°. The platen lever moves in the direction indicated by arrow a around the platen lever
shaft, and the platen and slip feed roller open (see Figure D-8).
To close the platen, the lever drive coil is energized again while the lever drive motor rotates,
turning the lever drive gear the prescribed amount in the direction of the arrow. This rotates the
platen lever open/close cam 180°, and the platen lever is moved in the direction shown by arrow
b around the platen lever shaft by the slip retainer spring. The slip feed roller and slip hold
roller make contact at this time, closing the platen.

Home position detection mechanism
The home position detection mechanism is located at the left end of the head carriage assembly.
This mechanism keeps track of the head carriage assembly movement position. The initial
setting is made by sensing the detection plate at the rear of the head carriage assembly.
The home position detector consists of an LED and photo IC. When the head carriage assembly
is moved, the detection plate passes between the LED and photo IC. The photo IC output level
changes when the light rays are interrupted. This change in output level is used as a detection
signal for the head carriage movement position.

Carriage detection mechanism

The carriage detection mechanism uses a rotary encoder interlocked to the carriage motor gear
to detect abnormal carriage motor rotation.
This mechanism is comprised of the carriage drive transmission gear and carriage detector,
which are located on the carriage motor shaft.
The carriage detector consists of an LED and phototransistor.
The driving force generated by the carriage motor is transmitted to the carriage motor gear,
carriage drive pulley, carriage belt, carriage transmission pulley, and the carriage drive
transmission gear, which is located at an equal interval on the inside of the gear, where the
screening plate is located. When the carriage drive transmission gear is rotated by the driving
force of the carriage motor, the screening plate passes between the LED and phototransistor.
The output level of the phototransistor changes at this time, since the light rays are interrupted.

This output level is used as the detection signal for carriage motor rotation.

The mechanism is located near the right end of where paper is inserted to ensure that it can
determine whether or not a slip has been inserted and for proper positioning.
The B.O.F. detector is comprised of an LED and phototransistor. When a slip is inserted, the
light rays between the LED and photo resistor are interrupted, resulting in a change in the
phototransistor output level.

Slip Feed Mechanism

The slip feed mechanism is comprised of the following parts:
❏ Form stopper
❏ Sub slip feed lever
❏ Sub slip feed roller
❏ Sub slip hold roller
❏ Slip feed roller
❏ Slip hold roller
❏ Paper feed motor and wheel
Positioning slip paper

The slip paper path is normally interrupted by the form stopper, located perpendicular to the
path, which is held in place by the form stopper spring.
When a slip is inserted along the right edge of the slip guide lower frame in the direction
indicated by the arrow, the slip paper goes in as far as the form stopper and is positioned. (See
Figure D-21.)
When the T.O.F. detector and B.O.F. detector determine that a slip has been inserted, the lever
drive coil is energized while the lever drive motor is rotated. At this time, the linkage between
the paper feed trigger attraction plate and lever drive ratchet wheel is disconnected, the lever
drive shaft and lever drive cam rotate, and the sub slip feed lever moves in the direction
indicated by arrow a. (See Figure D-21.) This pushes up the sub slip feed roller, compressing the
sub slip hold roller. At the same time as this, the sub slip feed lever moves the form stopper in
the direction indicated by arrow b (See Figure D-21.), completing preparations for feeding the
slip away from the form stopper slip path .

Slip paper printing and paper feed operation

After the slip is positioned, printing can be performed. The paper feed motor drives the slip
feed roller upon the completion of printing of one line, feeding the paper the prescribed
distance. The slip paper can be fed forward or reverse by controlling the energizing signal of the
paper feed motor.
The slip feed mechanism gear assembly is comprised of the following parts:
❏ Paper feed motor gear for paper feed motor
❏ Paper feed transmission gear
❏ J/S change gear
❏ Paper feed reduction gear
❏ Slip transmission gear
❏ Slip drive gear
The driving force of the paper feed motor is transmitted to the slip feed roller and slip hold roller
simultaneously via the gears, creating the force to feed the slip paper on the front and on the
back.

Confidential
When the slip paper is fed forward, the respective gears rotate in the directions indicated by
arrow a, arrow b, arrow c, arrow d, arrow e, and arrow f. This rotates the slip feed roller and slip
hold roller in the directions indicated by arrows g and h, feeding the slip paper in the direction
indicated by the arrow. When the slip paper is fed in the reverse direction, the operation is
performed in the opposite direction. (See Figure D-23.)
Ribbon Feed Mechanism

Ribbon feed mechanism (main print head unit)
The ribbon feed mechanism is comprised of the following parts (See Figure D-24):
❏ Transmission gear
❏ Ribbon reduction gear
❏ Ribbon drive gear
❏ Ribbon intermediate gear
❏ Ribbon take-up gear
❏ Ribbon take-up shaft
The rotation of the carriage transmission pulley, driven via the carriage transmission belt, is
used to feed the ribbon.
This ribbon feed mechanism only feeds the ribbon when the head carriage assembly is moved
from the right side to the left side.

Ribbon feed operation

When the carriage motor moves the head carriage assembly from the right side to the left side,
the carriage transmission pulley rotates in the direction indicated by arrow A. (See Figure D-25.)
This driving force rotates the ribbon drive gear (planetary gear) in the direction indicated by
arrow B via the transmission gear and ribbon reduction gear. At this time, the ribbon drive plate
rotates in the direction indicated by arrow C around the ribbon reduction gear rotation shaft
until the ribbon drive gear meshes with the ribbon intermediate gear.
Meshing of these gears transmits the driving force of the ribbon drive gear to the ribbon take-up
gear via the ribbon intermediate gear, rotating the ribbon take-up shaft mounted at the top in the
direction shown by arrow D. (See Figure D-25.)
The ribbon is fed when the ribbon feed roller in the ribbon cassette meshes with this ribbon take-
up shaft.
On the other hand, when the head carriage assembly moves from left to right, the carriage
transmission pulley rotates in the direction of arrow E, and the ribbon drive plate rotates in the
direction of arrow F around the ribbon reduction gear rotation shaft. Consequently, the ribbon
drive gear and ribbon intermediate gear no longer mesh, the ribbon take-up gear remains in
place, and the ribbon is not fed.

Confidential
The ribbon take-up gear has an internal one-way clutch, preventing it from rotating in the
direction indicated by arrow G and this in turn, prevents ribbon slack. (See Figure D-25.)

MICR Mechanism (Factory Option)

The MICR unit is comprised of the following parts. (See Figure D-26.)
❏ MICR head
❏ MICR frame
❏ MICR lever
❏ MICR fixing
❏ MICR solenoid
The MICR unit is located in the slip paper path.

MICR character reading, printing on rear, and printing on front

When a check is inserted along the right edge of the slip guide lower frame in the direction
indicated by the arrow in the figure below, it is fed up to the form stopper and positioned.
After the T.O.F. and B.O.F. detectors determine that a check has been inserted, the sub slip feed
roller and sub slip hold roller take hold of the check in an operation like that described for
positioning the slip paper. This prepares for movement of the form stopper in the direction
indicated by the arrow to feed the check. The MICR solenoid is then energized, moving the
MICR lever in the direction indicated by the arrow, and the MICR fixing mounted to the MICR
lever pushes the check against the MICR head.
Next, the paper feed motor rotates at the MICR reading speed in the same way as for slip paper
feed, transporting the check. MICR characters are magnetized when the MICR characters on the
check paper pass over the MICR magnet in the front of the MICR unit. The check sheet is
transported through the MICR unit to allow the MICR to read those characters.
In the event the MICR characters cannot be recognized during the MICR reading process, the
check is ejected out the rear (see Note 1).
In the event the MICR characters can be recognized, the check is fed to the position
corresponding to the endorsement printing format, it is positioned at the top for endorsement
printing, and endorsement printing is performed in the prescribed format by the endorsement
printer unit. The paper feed motor rotates the slip feed roller during endorsement printing,
feeding the check toward the rear.
Upon completion of endorsement printing, the check is fed to the position corresponding to the
format for printing on the front of the check, and the head carriage assembly prints in the
prescribed format on the front of the check. After printing, the check is fed forward and ejected,
completing the operation. The slip feed roller rotates during the front printing process, feeding
the check forward in the same way as for a slip (see Note 2).

the lever drive motor is rotated for the MICR reading process after a check has been inserted, the
link between the paper feed trigger suction plate and lever drive ratchet wheel is released, and
the lever drive gear rotates the prescribed amount in the direction indicated by the arrow. The
endorsement platen gear is rotated 180° via the lever drive transmission gear, placing cut surface
b of the endorsement platen in an opposing position to the endorsement printer unit print head.

Thermal Printer Mechanisms

❏ Printing mechanism
❏ Cutter mechanism
❏ Cover mechanism

Paper Feed Mechanism

Paper is fed by the drive transmission mechanism, which rotates the platen, and the head press
mechanism, which presses the thermal head against the platen.

Drive transmission mechanism

The cover frame has a platen supported on bearings to allow it to rotate freely. When the cover
frame is closed, the platen gear fixed to the platen shaft meshes with the reduction gear
provided at the left side of the frame. The rotating force of the receipt feed motor fixed to the
motor frame (direction indicated by arrow ➀) is sequentially transmitted to the motor gear
(pressure fit on motor shaft), reduction gear, and platen gear, driving the platen in the direction
indicated by arrow ➁. A PM-type stepping motor is used for the receipt feed motor. The gears
in this mechanism have such a structure that they separate, so that when the motor attempts to
rotate in the opposite direction, the force acts to separate the gears due to the relationship of the
pressure angle, preventing the motor from being rotated in the opposite direction.

Paper feed operation
When the frame cover is opened, a paper roll is loaded in the proper position, and the frame
cover is closed. This fits the paper roll between the thermal head and platen. The frictional force
between the platen and paper cause the paper roll to feed in the direction indicated by arrow ➃
when the motor rotates the platen. The paper feed speed with this mechanism is determined by
the type of printing pattern, ambient temperature, power voltage, and DIP switch settings. 2-2
phase excitation is used for speeds exceeding 70 mm/s {2.76”/s}, and 1-2 phase excitation is
used to drive speeds of 70 mm/s or less to ensure adequate torque and to control motor heat rise
and noise.

Near end (N.E.) detection mechanism

The N.E. detector lever is supported by the N.E. detector holder in such a way that it can rotate.
The spring force of a micro switch fixed to the N.E. detector holder by a screw pushes the N.E.
detector lever in the direction indicated by arrow ➀ in Figure D-42. The micro switch is
connected to the intermediate circuit board by the N.E. detector lead wire. The N.E. detector
holder is mounted to the paper guides by the detector adjustment screw.
If a new paper roll is loaded, the micro switch is pressed by the N.E. detector lever on the side of
the roll, causing it to go On.

When the amount of paper remaining on the roll is less than a certain amount, the tip of the N.E.
detector lever no longer makes contact with the side of the roll, and it rotates in the direction
indicated by arrow ➀, falling inside the paper roll core, causing the micro switch to go Off,
detecting that the paper roll is near the end.
The mounting screw for the N.E. detector holder fits into an oblong hole. The amount of paper
remaining when the near end is detected can be changed to one of two settings. With one
setting, the N.E. detector holder knob is pulled up and fixed in place, and with the other setting,
the N.E. detector holder knob is pressed down and fixed in place.

Paper end detection mechanism

A reflective-type photo sensor, comprised of an LED and photo transistor, is mounted on the
paper detection circuit board in the paper path of the paper guides. When the paper end passes
the sensor, the amount of light from the LED that reaches the photo transistor changes, since the
reflection from paper differs from that for the platen surface (rubber). The change in the output
level is detected to sense the end of the paper.

The impact plate around the sensor is integral with the frame plate. When the frame cover is
opened, the sensor is exposed, but the impact plate acts as a lightning rod, preventing discharge
of static electricity to the sensor, which would damage it. The paper detection circuit board is
connected to the intermediate circuit board by the paper end detector lead wire.

Printing Mechanism
The thermal head is in a position where the heating element can make contact with the platen.
The paper rolled around the platen is pressed against the thermal head heating element with the
prescribed amount of pressure. Printing is performed when the heating element generates heat.
A thin-film thermal head is used for this printer unit. The head consists of the head chip with a
heating element, the driver IC that drives and controls the heating element, a thermistor that
detects the thermal head temperature, a heat dissipation plate that prevents an abnormal rise in
heat by the head chip, a flexible plastic cable (FPC) for signal wiring, and the head support shaft
(pin).
The thermal head is connected by the FFC to the main circuit board via a connector. A cross
section of the thermal head heating element and cross section of the paper roll (heat sensitive
paper) are shown in the Figure D-45.
Printing is performed in the following steps:
➀ The electrodes for the respective corresponding dots are energized at the prescribed electrical
pulse by the printing signal.
➁ The resistor located in each electrode generates heat.
➂ The thermal energy generated by the resistors is transferred to the heat sensitive layer on the
surface of the paper, and it changes color.

There are two strobe terminals among which drive is divided: Strobe 1 and Strobe 2.

The electrical pulse width, paper feed rate, thermistor detection temperature, head supply
voltage, and condition for printing the previous dot are set to the ideal values, depending on the

Cutter Mechanism
This unit has an autocutter mechanism that cuts paper automatically, and a manual cutter that
allows the paper to be cut manually.
Autocutter mechanism
The basic principle of the autocutter mechanism is a scissors-like movement where the paper is
cut when two blades pass each other. The autocutter mechanism on this unit is of the type
where the cutter blades are separate, eliminating the necessity of feeding the paper through a slit
in the autocutter mechanism. The fixed blade and movable blade are completely separated
when the frame cover is opened. The fixed blade is located on the frame cover, and the movable
blade mechanism is located on the frame.

The fixed blade is located on the frame cover. The fixed blade retainer spring pushes the fixed
blade against the frame cover.

Movable blade mechanism

The paper cutter motor is mounted to the paper cutter cover, and the cutter motor gear is
pressure-fit onto the motor shaft. A DC brush motor is used as the paper cutter motor. The gear
drive shaft (fit on the paper cutter cover) is supported in such a way to allow the drive gear to
rotate. The drive gear is held to the paper cutter cover by a push nut. The rotation speed of the
paper cutter motor is reduced when it is transmitted from the paper cutter motor gear to the
drive gear. This force rotates the drive pin which is pressure-fit on the drive gear.
A micro switch to detect the position of the fixed blade is mounted to the paper cutter cover.
The drive gear is integral with a cam, which turns the micro switch on and off. The paper cutter
motor and micro switch are connected to the intermediate circuit board by the paper cutter lead
wire.
A movable blade holder, spacer, movable blade, movable blade retainer spring, and a movable
blade spring washer are located on the movable blade shaft, which is fit onto the paper cutter
frame, and are held to the paper cutter frame by a push nut.

Confidential
The movable blade has a drive pin, which is fit into an oblong hole. When the drive pin on the
frame cover enters this oblong hole and rotates, the movable blade rotates to the left around the
movable blade shaft. The micro switch is Off (open) when the movable blade is in the standby
status.

Autocut operation
The frame cover can be closed when the movable blade is at the standby position. When the
frame cover is closed, the shaft located on the frame pushes up the blade shutter, exposing the
fixed blade. A portion of the fixed blade makes contact with a portion of the paper cutter frame,
determining the relative positions of the fixed blade and movable blade. The autocutter can
perform the autocut operation from this position.
The autocut operation is performed as follows:
➀ The motor rotates clockwise when voltage is applied between the paper cutter motor
terminals.
➁ The drive pin moves the movable blade toward the fixed blade.
➂ The movable blade and fixed blade intersect, cutting the paper from the right edge.
➃ The movable blade is retracted with a certain amount of paper to be cut remaining at the left
edge.
➄ The micro switch detects when the movable blade returns to the standby position, at which
time it stops rotation, and the movable blade stops.
Cutter blade knob

The movable blade is in the standby position when the cutter operation is not performed. This is
a safety consideration to ensure that the frame cover cannot be opened or closed with the blade
in the extended position (separated cutter blade type).

Normally, when the unit is used and the movable blade is not at the standby position, the paper
cutter motor is rotated in the opposite direction to return the movable blade to the standby
position. The cutter motor gear has a knob that allows the movable blade to be manually moved
when it is not returned to the standby position by the driving force of the motor. Open the unit
cover to turn the knob. See Figure 1-15 on page 1-24 for the procedure to turn the cutter blade
knob.
The paper cutter cover has a window for checking that the movable blade has been returned to
the standby position. The movable blade is in the standby position when the pin can be seen in
the window.

Cover Mechanism
The thermal mechanism cover is mounted to the frame cover to provide adequate cover
strength.
The printer, including the autocutter, does not operate normally if the frame cover is not
properly closed. Therefore, the unit has a cover open detection mechanism to determine when
the frame cover is not properly closed.

Cover open detection mechanism
A transparent photo sensor consisting of an LED and photo transistor is mounted on the cover
open circuit board, which is fixed to the right frame. The frame cover has a shutter linked to this
transparent photo sensor that enters a slit in the photo sensor when the frame cover is closed
properly, interrupting the light rays.
On the other hand, when the frame cover is not all the way closed, light from the photo sensor
passes through the slit. The output level of the photo transistor detects whether the cover is
open or not.

To open the cover, pull strongly on the thermal mechanism (plastic cover part) for the cover
knob in the direction indicated by the arrow.

Printer Holding Mechanism

The paper holder and thermal case are fixed to the thermal holder, and the thermal frame is
supported by the support shafts on the right and left sides.
A left thermal spring and right thermal spring are attached between the thermal holder and
thermal frame, pulling the thermal holder in the direction indicated by arrow ➀. Hook plate C
on the thermal case is linked to the thermal frame and acts against this force to stop the thermal
holder from rotating.

Confidential
When the unit cover is opened to replace the endorsement printer ribbon or for another purpose,
the thermal buttons on both sides of the thermal case are pulled in the direction of arrow ➁ to
release the link with hook plate C, and the thermal case is rotated in the direction of arrow ➀.
The transparent photo sensor on the thermal frame detects whether the unit cover is open or
closed.

Reset circuit
Stable operation of the CPU and GA requires a certain reset period immediately after power up.
All operations return to their initial status after the reset operation. The reset IC (U1) on this
printer monitors the logic power source (VCC, standard output: +5V), and sets the reset signal to
LOW when the VCC is 4.2V or lower. The reset signal is restored from LOW to HIGH 50 ms
after the VCC exceeds 4.2V. The CPU and GA operate normally after reset.
The main specifications of the reset IC are shown below:
Table D-9 Reset IC specifications

Item Min. Typ. Max.
Detection voltage (V) 4.0 4.2 4.5
Hysteresis voltage (mV) 30 50 100
Delay time (ms) 30 50 75
M/R terminal "H" voltage (V) 2.0 - -
Reset also can be performed by sending the reset signal from the host interface.

Confidential
The host interface reset signal (DSR signal and pin 25 input signal) is connected through DSW
2-7 and 2-8. When the reset signal (LOW) is applied here, the printer is reset. In the reset status,
the CPU and GA are initialized, but the power remains on, and this status differs from when the
power is turned on again. It is necessary to keep this in mind. The reset circuit is shown below.

The SHEAD 1-9 signal lines (LOW active) are on the left side. These signals are directly driven
by the GA (directly connected to GA [U30]). Signals SHEAD 1-9 are input to the head drive
(QM3, 6, Q12: All N-ch MOSFET) via the print driver (QM2, 4, 5, 7, Q13: All PNP transistors).
Since the MOSFET has a LOW ON resistence, it provides adequate current flow for one
solenoid. To utilize the regenerative current of the head solenoid effectively, the regenerative
current when the GND ➝ COMMON is turned off by D6, D7 is channeled to the solenoid. With
this printer, the head drive signal is controlled by the GA, and at the same time, the COMMON
(24V power source voltage side) is chopped, enabling efficient head drive. The chopping circuit
is shown below:

The HEADCOM1 common driver signal driven by GA (U30) drives the Q7 MOSFET. Since it is
necessary to drive Q7 at high speed (100 KHz or less), a speed-up circuit is added (Q47
periphery, pulls out electric gate load of Q7). The operating principle of the speed-up circuit is
not described here. The relationship of the HEADCOM1 signal and SHEAD signals is shown
below. The chopping cycle of the HEADCOM signal differs, depending on the voltage and
temperature, but is virtually the same as the waveform in the diagram.

Carriage motor driver circuit

The carriage motor for this printer is a two-phase stepping motor. Constant-current drive is
provided using 2-2 phase excitation as the drive method. Therefore, a dedicated constant-
current drive chopping driver (U14, A2917SEB made by Alegrow) is used.

Since the driver is of the constant-current type, the motor can be directly driven by setting the
peak current. The peak current is set as described below, using the logical level of terminals I0
and I1.
Table D-10 Logical level of terminals I0, I1 and output current

I0 I1 Output Current
L L VREF / (10 × Rs)
H L VREF / (15 × Rs)
L H VREF / (30 × Rs)
H H 0
At this time, VREF uses the DA output of the CPU (U3), and is set to an arbitrary value (0 - VCC)
by firmware. RS is the resistance value (0.68 Ω) of R78 and R101. Accordingly, the current to the
motor is calculated by the logic level of I0, I1 (judged by VREF1, 2 terminal voltage).

Confidential
The drive signal to drive the phases is sent at the logical level of the PHASE1, 2 terminals. The
motor driver cannot operate unless signal 24VSW1 in the circuit diagram is set to HIGH
(controlled by the GA). When this signal is at a status other than HIGH, IC consumption is 0,
and no electricity goes to the motor.
Slip paper feed motor driver circuit

The slip paper feed motor is a two-phase stepping motor. The driving method is 1-2 phase
excitation during acceleration and deceleration, and constant-current drive is performed with
2-2 phase excitation. Therefore, a dedicated constant-current drive chopping driver (U17,
A2917SEB made by Alegrow) is used.

The circuit configuration is the same as the carriage motor driver, but the current setting is fixed,
and is changed between two levels by the output (PF_HOLD) of the GA (U30) port. The current
calculation procedure is described below.
Current = VREF/(10 × Rs)
RS: 1Ω
VREF: VCC or voltage obtained by voltage division ratio of R105 and R106.
As for the carriage motor driver circuit, the driver IC is operated by setting the 24VSW1 signal
HIGH.

Lever motor driver circuit

This printer has a DC type lever motor for the purpose described below.
❏ Adjustment of paper path changeover timing
❏ Adjustment of shaft rotation position
Rotation of the lever motor starts changeover of the paper path and the platen open/close
operation. An NPN Darlington transistor is used for lever motor drive. Due to the structure of
the lever motor, a brake circuit is not required. The lever motor is driven using the ELV_M1
output signal from the GA.
The lever motor rotates when LEV_M1 = LOW. The motor cannot be driven when the VCC-
PWR is not being supplied. Furthermore, the Q41 NPN Darlington transistor incorporates a CE
Zener to perform kickback protection.

To control the MICR solenoid, it is necessary to apply two voltage levels (24V, 13V) in the
opposite directions. Therefore, the MICR solenoid has a complicated circuit configuration. The
MICR solenoid is driven by MICR_SOL1 and MICR_SOL2 (output signals from the CPU).
MICR_SOL1 determines the direction in which electricity is sent, and MICR_SOL2 drives the
MICR solenoid. The logic is described in the following table.
Table D-11 MICR_SOL1, 2, and MICR

MICR_SOL1 MICR_SOL2 MICR Solenoid Status
H L Drives MICR solenoid. Pulled to magnet side in this status.
L L Drives MICR solenoid. Status where it attempts to reset.
H H Not driven, regardless of MICR_SOL1 logic.

The MICR solenoid is not driven when MICR_SOL2 is HIGH. MICR_SOL1 is the solenoid drive
signal. This is to prevent a short when the transistors go on at the same time.
MICR reader operating principles (factory option)

MICR stands for “magnetic ink character recognition.” Unlike conventional printing ink,
magnetic ink includes iron powder or some other magnetic element, which gives the ink itself
magnetic properties.
Application of a magnetic field on one side of characters printed in magnetic ink on a check
causes the characters to be magnetized, as shown in the illustration below.

Over-voltage 7.5 CY1 goes On after detection, and R3 burns

protection (V) out. Does not reset.
The output voltage is determined by the potential division of R82 and R85.
The input voltage of 24V for the power supply circuit is supplied to U11 through the R2 fuse
resistor (KOA RF73B2HTE0.51). R3 may burn out in the event of a malfunction in the U11 area.
R3 also will burn out in the event of excessive VCC voltage (Approx. 7.5 V or more). This fuse
resistor cannot be replaced. Therefore, the circuit cannot be repaired by replacing the R3 in the
event it has burned out due to a circuit malfunction.

EP power source circuit (factory option)

The printer has this circuit when it is equipped with the EP shuttle option. The EP power source
circuit provides the power source voltage for the EP shuttle head and timing motor drive. The
circuit is comprised of a simple step-down DC/DC converter, which uses a switching regulator
IC (U27, Hitachi, HA16114).

To drive the EP power source circuit, the firmware sends instructions to the GA to activate
24VSW2, causing 24V input to be supplied. The EP power source is started when the CPU
output port (EP_ON) goes to the LOW status.

Rush current control circuit
The rush current control circuit controls rush current when the power source is turned on. This
printer has large-capacity condensers to facilitate stable operation of mechanism drivers and
circuits. Therefore, an excess of rush current is generated when the power is turned on. This
circuit controls the rush current.
The CN18 external power source is connected to the CN29 switch. Q61 is Off when the switch is
turned On. C605 is not charged, so voltage between gate and source of Q61 is “0.” Therefore
current does not flow. After that, voltage between gate and source rises gradually at a time
constant determined by C605 and R245 to increase the output voltage slowly. This helps to
suppress the rush of current to the capacitor.

Types of switches
The printer has two switches. As shown by the circuit for the display functions in the previous
section, input is enabled by two signals (SW_SLIP, SW_RPT). LOW status is input when the
panel switch is pressed. HIGH is input when the switch is not pressed.

Malfunction Protective Circuit

This printer has the following three malfunction protection functions:
❏ GA operation monitor
The CPU (U3) monitors GA clock oscillation. The CPU firmware reads a specific GA register at
an arbitrary time, and compares that value with the value previously read. If the results of the
comparison are different, the system is judged to be operating normally. The GA changes the
register value using clock oscillation. Therefore, if it is operating normally, the register value
continuously changes.
❏ CPU operation monitor
CPU runaway causes a WDT (watchdog timer) overflow, resulting in output of LOW status
from the CPU WDT output terminal. This is connected to the GA TIMI input terminal, and
when the GA detects the LOW status for a certain time, it goes to the reset status and is not
restored.
❏ Mechanism malfunction monitor
When the thermal head becomes abnormally hot, the GA TIMI input terminal goes LOW, and
the GA is reset and is not restored. The firmware judges this as a GA malfunction, and processes
it as an unrecoverable error.
GA TIMI input terminal also goes LOW when the impact head becomes abnormally hot, causing
the GA to go to the reset status, which will not be restored. The firmware judges this as a GA
malfunction, and processes it as an unrecoverable error.
Interfaces
This printer has a variety of interfaces. There is a dedicated connector (CNB) for the EPSON
customer display. A general-purpose drawer can be connected to CN9 and used. The optional
interface board allows communication with more interfaces.
Interface Boards
This printer can accommodate an exchangeable interface board. The following types of interface
boards can be installed. As new interfaces are developed, they may become available for this
printer.
❏ UB-S01 (RS-232C interface)
❏ UB-S02 (RS-485 interface)
❏ UB-P02 II (IEEE-1284 interface)
DM
The EPSON DM series customer display can be connected to CN8. However, the DM can only
operate with CN8 when the UB-S01 serial interface is used.

Printer Handling
Using the Power Switch Cover
WARNING:
If an accident occurs when the power switch cover is attached, unplug the power cord
from the outlet immediately to avoid fire or shock.
You can use the enclosed power switch cover to make sure the power switch is not accidentally
pressed. The illustration below shows the power switch cover installed.
Figure I-1 Power switch cover
If you need to turn the power on or off when the cover is installed, you can insert a thin tool into
one of the holes in the cover to operate the switch.

Installing or Replacing the Paper Roll

You need to install a paper roll even if you are using only the slip section of the printer.
Note:
Do not use paper rolls that have the paper glued or taped to the core because they might cause a paper jam.
1. To prevent data loss make sure that the printer is not receiving data.
2. Open the paper roll cover by lifting up the two tabs on the paper roll cover and then pushing
the cover back.
3. Remove the used paper roll core if there is one.

Adjusting the Roll Paper Near End Detector

The paper near end detector detects when paper is almost gone by measuring the diameter of
the paper roll. The detector has two settings.

Confidential
Note:
Because of variations in paper roll cores, it is not possible for the detector to measure exactly the length of
paper left on the roll when the detector is triggered.
If you want more paper left when the detector is triggered, change the setting, as described
below.
1. Open the printer cover, and remove the paper roll.
2. Loosen the adjusting screw with a coin, and carefully move the detecting lever up.

3. Tighten the adjusting screw, and check to be sure that the detecting lever moves freely.
4. Replace the paper roll.
Using the Control Panel

Most of the functions of this printer are governed by software, but you can monitor the printer’s
status by looking at the lights on the control panel, and for some procedures you will use the
buttons.
Figure I-17 Control panel

Confidential
LEDs
POWER
This light is on when the power is turned on.
ERROR
When this light is on but not blinking, it means that the printer is offline. Check to see if a cover
is open. When this light is blinking, there is an error. If you see this light blinking, turn off the
printer for a few seconds and then turn it back on. If the light is still blinking, see
“Troubleshooting Using the ERROR LED” in Chapter 1 .
PAPER OUT
This light comes on when the printer is out or nearly out of roll paper. The printer has a paper
end detector, and it also has a near-end detector (which can be adjusted) to warn you that the
printer is nearly out of paper. See previous section if you want to adjust this detector.
This light blinks during the self-test printing standby state or macro execution standby state
(when the macro execution command is used).
SLIP
This light blinks when the printer is ready to receive slip paper. It stays on during printing on
slip paper and blinks again when slip paper should be removed.
Control Panel Buttons

The control panel has two paper buttons that you may have to use, although most paper
handling functions will be handled by your software.
FEED
Use this button to feed roll paper or to start a roll paper self test.
RELEASE
Use this button to release slip paper or to start a slip paper self test.
