1.2 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The MF series of faxes is part of a range of multifunction SMS (Short Message Service) office equip-
ment.
The product consists of a color scanner with a resolution of 600 dpi and a black-and-white laser printer
with a resolution of 600 dpi. These two components are combined in a monobloc unit.
The documents to be processed are read by means of a sheet feeder scanner using CIS (Contact Image
Sensor) technology.
The control panel comprises:
• An alphanumeric keyboard and function keys used to control the monobloc unit,
• A display with 2 lines of 16 characters and a line of icons, to display control messages and alerts
to the user,
• A smart card reader used to initialize the consumables. It can also be used to store user functions
(directory and user parameter).
When replacing the printer assembly, it is advised to transfer the consumables (toner cartridge and
drum) to the new printer so as to keep their validity.
When replacing all or part of the consumables, perform the installation procedure for the new consum-
able item(s) (refer to the User Guide).

2.3 GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS OF CONSUMABLES
For each consumable (toner cartridge and drum) a counter contains the current number of pages that can
still be printed.
For a new consumable this counter is initialized to the capacity of the consumable, expressed in number
of pages, as specified by the manufacturer.
The displayed percentage is calculated by means of this counter, relative to the initial capacity of the
consumable (from 100 % to 1 %).
The values of the consumable counters are updated regularly in the flash memory. At each start-up of
the machine the counters are read from the flash memory.
Furthermore, it is essential to initialize the change of consumables, by means of the smart card supplied
with the product (refer to the User Guide).

3. FUNCTIONING
The equipment is a Group 3 multifunction fax functioning in accordance with the UIT-T
T30 recommendation.
It consists of a laser printer, a CIS (Contact Image Sensor) color sheet feeder scanner, a control panel
with a 64-key alphanumerical keyboard and an LCD screen with 2 lines of 16 characters.
Its main functions are:
• Fax transmission and reception on the switched telephone network using the V34 protocol
(max. 33.6 kbits/s) and the V17 protocol (max. 14.4 kbits/s),
• SMS (Short Message Service) transmission,
• Internet e-mail transmission and reception on the switched telephone network using the
V90 protocol,
• Photocopying,
• Local printer and scanner, via a USB interface,
• Network printer and scanner, via a local area network (LAN),
• E-mail transmission and reception on the local area network.
Note(s) : The machine does not have any facilities for managing an external telephone answering
machine connected on the same line (with a stackable plug). More generally, it is not
designed to function with any telephone equipment connected in parallel on the same
phone line. It is preferable to used a dedicated phone line for the fax: this allows to
leave the fax permanently in service and to receive communications without user inter-
vention. The fax is equipped with a standard telephone plug for connection to the
switched telephone network.
The electronics of the machine consist of a control panel board and a CPU board. For
the printer, refer to the printer section. Electrical power is supplied by the printer.
Note(s) : (for the attention of the technicians). The ECP and LAN interfaces conform to the
SELV (Safety Extra-Low Voltage, very low safety voltage) safety level.
The phone line input conforms to the TNV-3 safety level.
Before performing any intervention on the CPU board, disconnect the phone lead.
Before performing any intervention on the CPU electronic circuit board, it is also preferable to:
• Set the mains switch to the OFF position,
• Disconnect all external interconnect leads (LAN, ECP),
• Disconnect the mains lead.
3.1 CONTROL PANEL BOARD
The control panel board manages the keyboard and the LCD screen by means of a microcontroller,
which communicates with the CPU via a synchronous serial link.
The LCD screen is equipped with its own driver using COG (Chip On Glass) technology.
On this board are also installed: the scanner sensors, the external connector for the smart card and the
internal connector for the loudspeaker, these latter elements being managed by the CPU.

Diagram of the connector and sensor locations
Sensors:
• PSF (“présence feuille”): sheet present, detects the insertion of a sheet to be scanned
(location reference Z2202).
• DA (“début d'analyse”): start of scan, used to position the sheet relative to the CIS
(location reference Z2203).
• OUV (“ouverture capot”): cover open, detects the opening of the scanner cover: the motor is
then stopped automatically (location reference Z2204).

3.2 CPU BOARD
The CPU board is based on the Digicolor2 circuit which performs in particular the function of micro-
processor.
The executable code is stored in the flash memory Z460.
This flash memory is divided in two zones: a zone reserved for the storage of the code and a zone
reserved for the storage of the documents.
The code is loaded from this flash memory into SDRAM, and the microprocessor executes its instruc-
tions from the SDRAM.
Before printing, the documents to be printed are stored as bitmaps in SDRAM.
The SDRAM is also used as the working memory for the Digicolor2.
