2. OPERATION DESCRIPTION
OKIPAGE 14i consists of a main control board, a power supply/sensor board, an operator panel, an
electrophotographic process mechanism, and revision for illumination of LED head.
The main control board receives data via the host I/F, it then decodes, edits and stores the data in
memory. After completing the editing of a single page of data, it references the font memory and
generates bit image data, which is transferred to the LED head in one dot line units.
Through the electrophotographic process mechanism, the data is printed on the paper.
The operator panel is used for operations and status display.
OKIPAGE 14i block diagram is shown in Figure 2-1.

(4) EEPROM
16K-bit Electrically Erasable PROM (EEPROM), is loaded with the following kinds of data:
•Menu data
•Various counter data (page counter, drum counter)
•Adjusting parameters (LED head drive time, print start position, paper feed length)
(5) Parallel Interface
Parallel data is received from a host system via parallel interface which conforms to the IEEE1284
specification.
(6) USB Interface
Serial data is received from a host system via USB which conforms to the USB 1.1 specification.
