2.2 Basic Sequence
2.2.1 Basic Sequence
0011-3541
The machine's sequence of operation is controlled by the CPU on the image processor PCB and the CPU on the DC controller PCB.
The following figure shows the sequential flow, and table provides descriptions of the periods involved.
F-2-5
T-2-1
Period
Definition
Purpose
Remarks
WAIT
(wait)
From when the power is turned on
until the main motor is turned on and
stopped.
The machine's mechanical and electrical
states are checked.
A check is made on the presence/absence of a cartridge and
for paper remaining inside the machine. The machine also
shifts the WAIT state when the left cover is closed while
power is on, or after returning from ESS mode.
STBY
(standby)
After the end of
WAIT, unit the Start key is pressed.
The machine is ready for a print command.
INTR
(initial
rotation)
After a press on the Start key, until
the leading edge is detected by the
paper leading edge sensor.
The machine starts up process conditions and
picks up paper for printing.
The fixing heater is subjected to temperature contro (start-up
temperature control, paper passage temperature control);
scanner rotation speed adjustment and ATVC control are
executed.
PRINT
(print)
After the registration sensor detects
the leading edge of paper, until the
delivery sensor detects the trailing
edge of paper.
The DC controller PCB generates the BD0*
signal, and the image processor PCB sends
VD0* signal and VD0 signal, thereby
forming a latent image on the photosensitive
drum and turning it into a toner image.
LSTR
(last
rotation)
From when printing ends until the
main
motor stops.
The drum surface is made
free of potential and the transfer charging
roller is cleaned.
After last rotation, the machine shifts to standby to wait for a
print command, in response to which it immediately shifts to
initial rotation.
