The following rules apply throughout this document:
As a rule, the descriptions in this documentation are based on the following:
1. As needed, the work of each function and its relationship with electrical and mechani-
cal parts are explained; where applicable, the timing at which associated parts are
driven are also outlined.
In a diagram, the symbol indicates a path of mechanical drive; the symbol
accompanied by a notation indicates the flow of an electrical signal.
The expression “power-on” means turning on the power switch, closing the front
door, and closing the delivery door so that the parts of the machine are supplied with
power.
2. In a digital circuit, the state of a signal is indicated by ‘1’ if its voltage level is high and
by ‘0’ if low. The level of voltage, however, differs from circuit to circuit.
The machine uses a CPU; however, since the internal functions of a CPU is outside
the scope of a service person, detailed explanations are omitted from descriptions. In
this document, a circuit diagram may cover from sensors to inputs of a controller
PCB or from outputs of a controller PCB to loads, or it may be a functional diagram.
The descriptions of the machine are subject to change for product improvement, and major
changes will be communicated in the form of Service Information bulletins.
All service persons are expected to be fully familiar with the contents of this Service
Manual and Service Information bulletins to develop a good understanding of the machine,
equipping themselves with the ability and skill to identify faults and to maintain the machine
in good order.

1.2 Outline of the Electrical Circuitry

The finisher’s sequence of operation is controlled by the finisher controller PCB. It is a
32-bit CPU, and is designed to communicate with its host.
The CPU on the finisher controller PCB contains a flash ROM used to store the operating
sequence program.
The finisher controller PCB uses the serial communication line to receive various com-
mands from its host to drive the motors. It also uses serial communications to send informa-
tion on the sensors and switches to its host.

3.2 Moving Paper to the Intermediate Processing Tray

The paper from the host machine is moved to the intermediate processing tray by the
work of the delivery roller. The movement of the paper is monitored by the inlet sensor (S2).
After moving past the delivery roller, the paper drops to the intermediate processing tray
assembly; at this time, the paper feed guide A/B serves to make sure that the trailing edge of
the paper will deposit itself in the intermediate processing tray assembly. The delivery roller
is driven by the delivery motor (M1).

3.3 Controlling the Delivery Motor

The delivery motor (M1) is a 4-phase stepping motor, and its direction of rotation is
switched to control the delivery roller and the return roller.
The CPU sends the delivery motor drive ON/OFF signal (TRNSOFF), the delivery motor
drive pulse signal (TRNSPIN), and the delivery motor current control signal (TRNSCUR) to
the motor driver.
The motor driver changes the sequence and frequency of the pulse signals (A, A*, B, B*)
to control the direction and speed of the delivery motor (M1).

4 Intermediate Processing Tray Assembly

4.1 Operation of the Intermediate Processing Tray
4.1.1 Outline
The intermediate processing tray is used to align, offset, and staple sheets of paper deliv-
ered by the host machine.
The intermediate processing tray assembly consists of a return roller and a stack delivery
belt, which are driven by the delivery motor (M1) and the stack processing motor (M2), re-
spectively.
The presence/absence of paper in the intermediate processing tray is checked by the inter-
mediate processing tray paper sensor (S5). There are 2 sensor levers used to detect paper in
the processing plate, ensuring also the detection of thin paper.

4.1.2 Controlling the Stack Processing Motor

The stack processing motor (M2) is a 4-phase stepping motor, and its direction of rota-
tion is changed to control the stack delivery belt and the stack retaining lever.
The CPU sends the stack processing motor drive ON/OFF signal (BUNDOFF), stack
processing motor drive pulse signal (BUNDPIN), and stack processing motor current control
signal (BUNDCUR) to the motor driver.
The motor driver changes the sequence and frequency of the pulse signals (A, A*, B, B*)
to control the direction and speed of rotation of the stack processing motor (M2).

4.1.3 Maximum Number of Sheets in the Intermediate Processing Tray

The intermediate processing tray can hold as many as 17 sheets of paper.
If the count or the number of originals exceeds the maximum number of sheets in a stack,
the maximum number of sheets are aligned/offset in the intermediate processing tray, and the
result is delivered to the stack tray; the remaining number of sheets will then be handled.
At this time, the direction of alignment will be the same if the sheets belong to the same
stack.
The maximum number of sheets in the intermediate processing tray is 5

sheets if of less than 182 mm in feed length so as to ensure correct alignment
REF. for the stack tray; paper picked up by the manual feed tray of the host ma-
chine is controlled so that no more than 2 are handled (in consideration of
the high likelihood of their being transparencies).
4.2 Return Roller

4.2.1 Outline
The return roller is used to force paper arriving from the host machine against the stopper
plate for alignment in feed direction.
The return roller is driven by the delivery motor (M1).

to increase the sheet-to-sheet interval.
*3: when the trailing edge of paper moves past the inlet sensor (S2), the speed of rotation is decreased
to deliver the paper to the intermediate processing tray, thus preventing the paper from moving
beyond the processing tray after its trailing edge moves past the delivery roller.

4.3 Driving the Stack Delivery Belt

4.3.1 Outline
The stack delivery belt is equipped with the following: a stack delivery lever used to de-
liver paper from the intermediate processing tray to the stack tray; 2 pairs of intermediate
processing tray auxiliary plates (facing each other) used to assist stacking of paper in the in-
termediate processing tray.
A single delivery operation is completed as the belt makes a 1/2 rotation. The drive of the
stack delivery belt comes from the stack processing motor (M2).

4.4 Alignment and Offset

4.4.1 Outline
The alignment of paper in width direction is executed in the intermediate processing tray
and by the front/rear aligning plate.
The front aligning plate is driven by the front alignment motor (M3), while rear aligning
plate is driven by the rear alignment motor (M4).
The front aligning plate home position sensor (S6) and the rear aligning plate home posi-
tion sensor (S8) are used to detect their respective home positions.
The following tables show the positions and sizes of alignment:

4.4.3 Front Alignment (for staple sort)

The machine’s stapler is fixed in position to the front, and the sheets are aligned at the
front for stapling.
When the Start key is pressed and the host machine sends paper size information, the
front aligning plate moves to home position, whether rear aligning plate moves to a position
‘half of paper width + 10 mm’ from the middle of the stack tray and stops in wait. If the pa-
per is 297 mm in width (A3/A4), the rear aligning plate stops in wait in home position.
When paper reaches the intermediate processing tray, it is forced against the stopper plate
by the work of the return roller for alignment; thereafter, the rear aligning plate is driven to
align the paper to the front, moving the sheets to stapling position.

4.4.4 Offset Alignment (non binding)

a. Sort
In sort mode, the stack of sheets is shifted in the intermediate processing tray for align-
ment, referred to as offset. The stack is displaced over a distance of 20 mm.
When paper size information arrives from the host machine, the finisher controller PCB
drives both front and rear aligning plates at the same time for a move to a point ‘paper width
+ 10 mm on both sides’ for the middle of the stack tray (where paper will be located; F02-
404-05).
For alignment, either the front or rear aligning plate is driven. To align to the front, the rear
aligning plate is used; to align to the rear, the front aligning plate is moved as far as the edge
of the paper to offset for alignment.
If the paper is A4 or A3, the home position of the front aligning plate will be used as the
reference if the alignment is to the front; the home position of the rear aligning plate will be
used as the reference if alignment is to the rear. The aligning plate to use (the rear aligning
plate if the alignment is to the front; the front aligning plate if the alignment is to the rear)
will also be kept in wait in home position.
For alignment, the aligning plate is driven from the home position to the edge of the paper
to offset (F02-404-06).
If the count or the number of originals exceeds the maximum number of sheets (17 sheets)
imposed on the intermediate processing tray, the maximum number of sheets are delivered
once; then, the sheets that follow will be aligned in the same direction.
The following diagram shows alignment in the direction of the rear:

The direction of the 1st set will be different from the direction of offset
used in the previous copy job. For instance, if the previous copy job ended
REF. with alignment to the front, the direction of offset for the 1st set will be to
the rear.
The direction of alignment at the end of a copy job is stored in memory of
the host machine, and is switched over regardless of the presence/absence of
paper in the finisher or whether the power switch has been turned off and
then on.
b. Non-Sort
In non-sort, the sheets are aligned whether they have been offset to the front or ear. The
following diagrams show when the sheets are aligned to the front:

the rear.
The direction of alignment at the end of a copy job is stored in memory of
the host machine, and is switched over regardless of the presence/absence of
paper in the finisher or whether the power switch has been turned off and
then on.

a. Staple Sort
The following sequence of operation is used for staple sort:
1) Such information as on the selection of stapling and paper size arrives from the host ma-
chine.
2) The rear aligning plate moves to a point ‘half of paper width + 10 mm’ from the middle
of the stack tray.

6 Operation of the Stack Tray

6.1 Moving Up/Down the Stack Tray
6.1.1 Outline
The machine is equipped with a single stack tray to which sheets that have been aligned/
offset/stapled in the intermediate processing tray are delivered.
When the 1st stack of sheets is deposited in the stack tray, the stack tray paper sensor
(S11) goes ON.
The stack tray is moved up/down by the drive of the stack tray up/down motor (M5). If
the stack tray is not in home position at the start of copying/printing, the stack tray up/
down motor is driven to move the tray to home position, which is a point about 12.5 mm
farther up than where the stack tray paper height sensor detects the top surface of the stack
tray.
The position of the stack tray is monitored in relation to the number of clock pulses gen-
erated since it has moved away from the stack tray paper height sensor (S10).
The upper limit of the stack tray is detected by the stack tray upper limit sensor (S1),
while its lower limit is detected by the lower limit sensor (S12).
The limits of the stack tray are detected as follows:

6.1.2 Moving Up/Down the Stack Tray

When the stack of sheets has been delivered, the stack tray keeps moving down and stops
when the stack tray paper height sensor (S10) goes OFF. Thereafter, it moves up to a point
about 12.5 mm from where the top surface of the paper in the stack tray is detected.

6.2 Detecting the Height of the Paper in the Stack Tray

In all modes, the volume of paper in the stack tray is monitored in relation to the height of
the paper deposited in the stack tray detected by the stack tray paper height sensor (S10).
The stack tray keeps moving down until the stack tray paper height sensor (S10) goes
OFF; after it has stopped, it then starts to move up to a point about 12.5 mm from where
the paper height sensor (S10) detects the top surface of the paper in the stack tray.
With the stack tray paper height sensor detecting the top surface of paper, the finisher
controller PCB will communicate an overstacking condition to the host machine if the stack
tray lower limit sensor detects the stack tray. Thereafter, when the paper is removed from
the stack tray, the stack tray is moved up to home position, becoming ready for the delivery
of the next sheet.

6.3 Counting the Number of Stacks in the Stack Tray

In stapling mode, in addition to the detection of the height of paper, the number of stacks
deposited in the stack tray is monitored, counting a single stack as ‘1’. When the total
reaches ‘30’, an overstacking condition is identified, communicating the fact to the host ma-
chine.
If an overstacking condition occurs, the host machine will not deliver paper until the stack
tray has been freed.
6.4 Holding Down the Paper in the Stack Tray

To prevent wrong detection of the height of paper, the stack retaining lever is used, and it
is driven by the stack processing motor (M2).
A stack of sheets delivered to the stack tray is deposited on the stack retaining lever; in
response, the stack retaining lever makes a single rotation to hold down the stack. The stack
tray, on the other hand, moves down until the stack tray paper height sensor goes OFF; it
then moves up to a point about 12.5 mm from where the stack tray paper height sensor de-
tects the top surface of paper.
This series of operations is repeated to keep the stacks of sheets in place.

6.5 Controlling the Stack Tray Up / Down Motor

The following is an outline of the drive circuit used to control the stack tray up/down mo-

The direction of motor rotation is switched by signals (T02-605-01) generated by the
CPU on the finisher controller PCB.
When the stack tray lower/upper limit sensor (S12/S1) detects the stack tray, the signals
used to drive the motor will be suspended to stop the motor rotation.

The following sensors are used to find out the presence/absence of paper and to monitor
the movement of paper:
- inlet sensor (S2)
- return roller home position sensor (S3)
- stack retaining lever home position sensor (S4)
- stack delivery lever home position sensor (S8)
- stapler punching home position sensor (S13)
The presence/absence of a jam is checked at such times as programmed in the CPU on the
finisher controller PCB. If a jam is found, the machine operation will be stopped, and the
host machine will indicate the presence of a jam in its control panel.

7 Module Separation
7.1 Outline
The machine is provided with a module separation function, in which the operation of
the machine will be temporarily limited to delivery, thus enabling limited system opera-
tion until the error is corrected.
As long as the module separation function remains ON, the machine will not perform
stapling, alignment, or error detection; it, however, keeps the inlet sensor (S2) enabled
for jam detection.
7.2 Making Settings

1) If an error has occurred in the machine, turn off and then on the main power switch
of the host machine.
2) When the host machine has started up, perform the following:
2-1)In user mode, select ‘OFF’ for ADJUST/CLEAN>USE STAPLE/ SHIFT.
3) Turn off and then on the main power switch of the host machine.
7.3 Communication with the Host Machine

1) When the power switch of the host machine is turned on, the image processor PCB
communicates the selection of module separation to the DC controller PCB while, at
the same item, indicating the presence of an error in the finisher on the control panel
display.
2) The DC controller PCB backs up the data on module separation.
3) The DC controller PCB communicates module separation to the finisher controller
PCB for each pickup.
4) The finisher controller PCB will be left only with the control of delivery operation.
