Operating Principles 2.3.2.5 Printhead Driver Circuit This printer has 2 separate printhead driver circuits for the black and color printheads. Each circuit has the common voltage driver circuit attached to the circuit control board, and the nozzle selector circuit attached to the printhead. The each of the black and color common driver circuits is composed of the hybrid IC H8D2813E (IC22) and the terminal transistor. The black head nozzle selector circuit is composed of the 128-bit transfer gate array IC IR2C72C, and the color head nozzle selector circuit consists of the 128-bit transfer gate array IC IR2C72C (for cyan and yellow) and 64-bit transfer gate array IC IR2C73C (for magenta). Printing data is separated into the common voltage signal and the nozzle selection signal at the gate array E05B33 (IC6) and is then transferred to the corresponding circuit. Figure 2-20 shows the printhead driver circuit block diagram. Figure 2-20. Prinrhead Driver Circuit Block Diagram 2-22 Rev. A

2.3.2.5 Printhead Driver Circuit
This printer has 2 separate printhead driver circuits for the black and color printheads. Each circuit has the
common voltage driver circuit attached to the circuit control board, and the nozzle selector circuit attached
to the printhead. The each of the black and color common driver circuits is composed of the hybrid IC
H8D2813E (IC22) and the terminal transistor. The black head nozzle selector circuit is composed of the
128-bit transfer gate array IC IR2C72C, and the color head nozzle selector circuit consists of the 128-bit
transfer gate array IC IR2C72C (for cyan and yellow) and 64-bit transfer gate array IC IR2C73C (for
magenta). Printing data is separated into the common voltage signal and the nozzle selection signal at the
gate array E05B33 (IC6) and is then transferred to the corresponding circuit. Figure 2-20 shows the
printhead driver circuit block diagram.
