The copier is a multi-function copier capable of serving as a copier, fax, and printer.
This Service Manual provides information needed to service the copier in the field. For
information on technologies used in common with the existing copiers, refer to the "Copier
Basic Series" as necessary.
This Service Manual consists of the following chapters:
Chapter 1 General Description introduces the copier's features and
specifications, shows how to operate the copier, and explains how
copies are made.
Chapter 2 Basic Operation provides outlines of the copier's various mechanical
workings.
Chapter 3 Exposure System discusses the principles of operation used for the
copier's lens drive unit and scanner drive unit. It also explains the
timing at which these drive units are operated, and shows how they
may be disassembled/assembled and adjusted.
Chapter 4 Image Formation System discusses the principles of operation used
for the copier's image processing units. It also explains the timing at
which the various units involved in image processing are operated,
and shows how they may be disassembled/assembled and adjusted.
Chapter 5 Laser Exposure System discusses the principles of operation used for
the copier's laser unit. It also explains the timing at which the unit is
operated, and shows how they may be disassembled/assembled and
adjusted.
Chapter 6 Image Formation System discusses the principles of how images are
formed. It also explains the timing at which the various units involved in
image formation are operated, and show how they may be
disassembled/assembled and adjusted.
Chapter 7 Pick-Up/Feeding System explains the principles of picking up and
feeding copy paper in view of the functions of electrical and
mechanical units used to move copy paper and in relation to their
timing of operation. It also shows how these units may be
disassembled/assembled and adjusted.
Chapter 8 Side Paper Deck explains the principles of operation used from when
paper is picked up to when copies are delivered. It also explains the
timing at which various drive units are operated, and shows how they
may be disassembled/assembled and adjusted.
Chapter 9 Fixing System explains the principles used to fuse toner images to
transfer media in view of the functions of electrical and mechanical
units and in relation to their timing of operation. It also shows how
these units may be disassembled/assembled and adjusted.
Chapter 10 Externals/Auxiliary Mechanisms shows the copier's external parts, and
explains the principles used for the copier's various control
mechanisms in view of the functions of electrical and mechanical units
and in relation to their timing of operation. It also shows how these
units may be disassembled/assembled and adjusted.

When Turning Off the Main Power Switch
Be sure always to turn off the main power switch and disconnect the power plug before starting
disassembly work. In addition,
1. When expanding the fax functions, the secondary battery used to retain fax memory images
will start to operate as soon as the main power switch is turned off. Be sure to complete any
work within one hour if the main power switch must be kept off. (Be sure also to keep the
machine powered at least for one week after installation.)
2. The communication memory lamp on the control panel indicates the presence/absence of fax
memory images. If it is on (indicating the presence of images), be sure to print out the images
before turning off the main power switch and disconnecting the power plug.
3. Turing off the control panel power switch will not remove power from some units. Be sure
always to turn off the main power switch before starting disassembly/assembly work.
4. The power will not be removed even when the front door is opened as long as the control panel
power switch and the main power switch are both on.

Connectors for the Pick-Up/Delivery Accessories
When connecting accessories, be sure to use the connectors indicates in the diagram. If, for
example, you connect the paper deck to the cassette pedestal connector and turn on the paper, the
fuse on the paper deck PCB will blow, at times requiring replacement with a new PCB.

CHAPTER 1 GENERAL DESCRIPITON
I. FEATURES
1. High-Speed, High-Image Quality
mCopy Speed:
405/400 40 ppm
335/330 33 ppm
mResolution
Read in copier mode 600 x 600 dpi
Write in copier mode 1200-equivalent x 600 dpi
In fax mode 600 x 600 dpi (hyper GENESIS smoothing)
mGradation 256
2. Large-Capacity Image Memory
mThe machine comes with a 32-MB image memory as standard, which may be expanded up
to 96 MB.
mThe use of an image memory has enabled making as many copies as needed with a single
scan of an original, significantly improving the efficiency of copying work.
3. New No-Stacking Duplexing Mechanism
mDouble-sided copies may be made without holding paper in the duplexing assembly,
helping to improve the efficiency of copying work. The mechanism can turn out a large
number of double-sided copies while limiting damage to the paper to a minimum.
4. Large-Capacity Paper Source
Adding accessories, the machine can be turned into a paper source holding as many as 5550
sheets.
m2 cassettes (front loading; standard) 500 x 2
mMultifeeder 50
mCassette Pedestal-S1 500 x 2
mPaper Deck-B1 3500 (A4, B5)
5. Saddle Finisher w/ Book Binding Mode/Saddle Finisher (accessory)
mThe saddle stitcher unit will prove its ability when producing booklets in book bind mode.
mThe finishers unit is capable of stapling/sorting a total of 100 sets (193.6 mm high; 1300
A4 sheets of 80 g/m2).
mThe finisher unit is capable of delivering as many as 50 sheets to the trays 1 through 3
(220.6 mm high; about 1500 sheets of 80 g/m2) and the interrupt tray.
mThe finisher unit is equipped with a job offset function to facilitate sorting work.
mThe buffer path function ensures that the host copier's productivity will not be affected by
the use of various finishing work.
