CHAPTER 2 FUNCTIONS & OPERATION

2. Image Reading

II. READ SYSTEM


1. Outline
The read system of the CR-180 consists
of an image reading section that reads the
image data from image sensors, and an
MICR reading section that reads MICR characters from a magnetic head.
OCR reading of the characters on
documents that include MICR characters is
done using a suitable application, based on
the image data read with the image sensors.
This function is not included in the application (Scanning Utility for CR-180) supplied
with the CR-180.

LED
(RGB)

Light guide

Figure 2-201 shows the sectional view of


the image reading section. The image sensor unit is comprised of a CIS PCB, lens
array, light guide, LEDs (RGB), LED array
(W), and a case. The LEDs (RGB) (one of
each color) are mounted on the PCB. They
serve to illuminate the documents that pass
through the light guide. In addition to the
LEDs (RGB), the CR-180 also incorporates a
white LED array (W).
When performing normal scanning, both
the LEDs (RGB) and LED array (W) are lit,
making it possible to read images prone to
shadows in the case of creased documents.

CHAPTER 2 FUNCTIONS & OPERATION

However, if scanning of embossed characters is selected, the LED array (W) does
not light so as to produce shadows. In the
case of dropout color and red emphasis, the
most effective lighting is achieved with only
the LEDs (RGB) lit, so the LED array (W)
remains unlit.
The light reflected from the document
passes through the lens array and shines
into the sensors on the CIS PCB. The sensor
pixel density is 300 dpi, and the effective

digital data, identifies characters from


the characteristics, and outputs the corresponding character code.
The reading height of the magnetic head
is 9 mm, so that the MICR characters
printed in the clear band can be read in
their entirety.
Figure 2-205 shows a typical voltage
waveform of the magnetic head.

2) Data reading
Figure 2-204 shows the line magnetic
force of the MICR reading section.
The magnet magnetizes the MICR characters, causing the formation of an N
pole at the right of each character. When
the magnetized MICR characters pass
by the magnetic head, a voltage waveform is produced at the magnetic head.
This analog waveform is output to the
IC100 (SH2) on the control PCB. The
IC100 converts the analog data into

CHAPTER 2 FUNCTIONS & OPERATION

2. Jogger Mechanism

After the MICR characters have been


read, the document passes the large roller
and reaches the image reading section. The
large roller is slightly slanted in order to rectify documents that are traveling obliquely.
After the document image has been read in
the image reading section, the document is
delivered into pocket 1 or pocket 2.
An imprinter section is provided between
the MICR reading section and the larger
roller.
These feed drives use the main motor.
In addition to the main motor, a magnetic
clutch is provided for pick-up roller ON/OFF
switching, and a solenoid is provided for
each of the shutter drive and flapper drive,
respectively. A dedicated jog motor is used
for the jogger drive.
Read timing and faulty document feed
detection sensors are also provided along
the feed path.

Figure 2-302 shows the jogger mechanism.


When the Jog button is pressed while
the document sensor detects a document,
the jog motor starts rotating. As a result, the
document presser plate is released, and
simultaneously, the jog roller starts moving.
Since the profile of the jog roller is square,
vibrations are transmitted to the document
to align it. Following the lapse of the prescribed time, or when the Stop button is
pressed, the jog motor stops. However, the
jog roller is controlled by the jog sensor so
that the flat part of the jog roller stops at the
top side. Then the jog motor reverses and
the document presser plate returns to its
position.
When the power is switched ON, the
CR-180 runs cycles through once, even if
no documents are set.

CHAPTER 2 FUNCTIONS & OPERATION

3. Separation Section Adjustment


Mechanism
Figure 2-303 shows the separation section adjustment mechanism. The space between the separation roller and the feeding
roller can be adjusted by changing the position of the feeding roller.
The feeding roller is supported by the
feeding roller holder. Since a coil spring is
attached to the feeding roller holder, it is
pulled in direction F in the figure and rests
against part A of the non-separation lever.
When the adjustment dial is turned
clockwise, the adjustment dial is screwed in
and the non-separation lever gets pushed to

toward the back, so that part A moves backward and the space between the feeding
roller and the separation roller decreases.
When the adjustment dial is turned
counterclockwise, the adjustment dial returns
and the non-separation lever moves forward,
so that the space between the feeding roller
and the separation roller increases.
In the non-separation mode, by thrusting
up the non-separation lever, the contact point
of the non-separation lever and the feeding
roller holder moves from part A to part B, so
that the space increases.

1) Document jam detection
Delay and residual jams are detected by
the leading edge sensor and the registration sensor. Each sensor compares
the document detection or non-detection
timing with the prescribed timing and
determined whether a document jam
has occurred. Moreover, residual jams
are judged to have occurred even if the
sensor detect a document while the
power is ON.
2) Double feed detection
If double feed detection is set, double
feeding is detected by the double feed
sensor. Using the thickness and length
of the first document as reference values, if the second or subsequent documents exceed the 0.8 to 1.5 thickness
range or the 20 mm length range, double feeding is judged to have occurred.

2. Image Processing inside CR-180


Figure 2-402 shows the block diagram of
image processing inside the CR-180.
The read resolution of the CR-180 is 200
200 dpi. An analog signal corresponding to
the density of each pixel is output from the
CIS unit to the analog processor of the control PCB. Here, following offset adjustment
and gain adjustment, the image data is converted to a 10-bit digital signal.
Next, the image data is sent to the image
controller, and following shading correction
(black correction, white correction), gamma
correction, brightness adjustment, and edge
emphasis are performed according to the set
conditions.
Image data for which image processing
has been completed is output as 8-bit grayscale data to the computer via the I/F controller.
In the case of gamma correction, brightness adjustment, and edge emphasis, the
table used for image data processing is selected according to the user settings. In the
case of gamma correction, a binary table and
a grayscale tables corresponding to the contrast set by the user are available.

the image data transmission difference
by this amount.
2) Resolution conversion
The resolution of the image data sent
from the CR-180 is 200 dpi. Resolution
conversion converts the image data to
image data of a resolution that matches
the set resolution value.
3) Binary conversion
Binary conversion performs black-andwhite (simple binary), error diffusion, or
advance text enhancement processing.
Advance text enhancement is the same
background removal processing as conventional text enhancement, but it is
performed with modularized software.

CHAPTER 2 FUNCTIONS & OPERATION

V. POWER SUPPLY
1. Outline
Figure 2-501 shows the block diagram of
the power PCB.
The power PCB of the CR-180 supports
AC power supply input ranging from 100 V to
240 V. The AC power is supplied to the power
PCB by setting the power switch ON.

The supplied AC power (100 V to 240 V)


is converted to unsmoothed UN100 V to 240
V with a rectifying bridge and then sent to a
transformer. The transformer changes UN100
V to 240 V, and after converting the current to
+24 V with a DC/DC converter, outputs it to
the control PCB. The power PCB is equipped
with a fuse for overcurrent protection.
Only +24 VDC is output from the power
PCB, and +5 VDC and +3.3 VDC are generated by the DC/DC converter on the control
PCB.

CHAPTER 2 FUNCTIONS & OPERATION

2. Power Circuit Protection Function

3. Energy-Saving Mode

The power PCB is the switching regulator


type.
If, due to an anomaly, the load shortcircuits and overcurrent results, the protection
function is activated and stops output.
Moreover, if the DC/DC converter generating
+5 VDC and +3.3 VDC on the control PCB
breaks down and a +24 VDC voltage is applied, the protection function kicks in and
stops output. While the output is stopped,
switch the power switch to OFF.
A fuse is provided on the control PCB. If
an overcurrent flows into the DC/DC converter, the fuse blows and the power supply
to the board stops.
A fuse is also used to protect the main
motor. If an overcurrent flows in the part supplying +24 VDC to the main motor, the fuse
blows and power supply to the main motor
stops.
The door switch connected to the control
PCB changes to OFF when the top cover and
the maintenance cover are open. At this time,
+24 VDC is not supplied to the main motor.

The CR-180 is designed so that when


document feed and data transmission are not
performed, the mode changes to the energysaving mode, to lower the power consumption.
In the energy-saving mode, the power
consumption is 12 W or less, and the control
PCB, image processing controller, and motor
functions are all stopped.
Recovery from the energy-saving mode
occurs automatically when a signal is sent
from the computer, or when an operation
button on the CR-180 is pressed.

been replaced.
This mode consists of "optical adjustment" and "regist adjustment" of the image
sensor units.
For "optical adjustment", determine the
correction value to be used for the shading
correction performed for the image's digital
signal. This correction value is determined to
all the pixels for each one of the LED lighting
conditions. The outline of the setting procedure is given below.
LED intensity adjustment
Offset adjustment
Gain adjustment
Write adjustment value
Determine black correction value for
above adjustment value
Determine white correction value for
above adjustment value
For "Regist Adjustment", determine the
detection timing of the registration sensor
and the document read start and stop timing.
The determined value is saved in the
flash memory (IC120) of the control PCB of
the CR-180.
Note:Only the gain adjustment and white
correction values are determined in
"Shading Adjust" in the service screen,
so this mode must not be used in the
field. Also, "Regist Adjust" in the service screen is the same thing as "Regist
Adjust" in this mode. "Regist adjustment" can be performed using the

Documents
This section describes the types of documents that can be used and how to place
them.
Treat the documents carefully. The paper edges may cut your fingers.
CAUTION

Types of Documents
The CR-180 can feed a wide variety of
document sizes. The ranges of width and
length for a document are:
Hight

Length
: 120 to 230 mm
Thickness : 0.08 to 0.20 mm
Weight
: 60 to 120 g/m2

Length

Hight

Follow these guidelines when you prepare a document for scanning:


Before scanning documents that contain pasted artwork, make sure that the ink
or paste is thoroughly dry. If the documents are scanned with wet ink or paste,
the inside of the scanner may become dirty and it may cause a malfunction.
If you scan a document written in pencil, the letters may not be scanned
properly or the pencil may rub off onto the rollers and stain subsequent
documents. Before you scan this kind of document, make a copy and then scan
the copy. After scanning a document written in pencil or some other soft writing
material, be sure to clean the scanning rollers. (See Cleaning the Scanning
Glass and Rollers, on p.55.)
If you scan thin paper in the Duplex mode, the ink printed on the back side may
be scanned. If this happens, adjust the scanning density.
Scanning documents with a rough surface may not feed easily, and may cause
friction between the documents, resulting in a feeding error. If this happens, feed
the documents one by one.
To avoid paper jams, damage to documents, and a scanner malfunction, do not
feed the following types of paper into the scanner. If you want to scan these
types of paper, first make a copy and then scan the copy.

38

Wrinkled or creased paper

Carbon backed paper

Curled paper

Coated paper or fax recording paper

Torn paper

Extremely thin paper

Paper with clips or staples

Paper with binding holes

4.1 Documents

ENGLISH

Note

Note that mixing documents of different thickness and size may cause a malfunction
during feeding.
Curled, wrinkled, or folded documents may cause an error. If this happens, straighten
out the curls, or reduce the number of documents loaded.
Documents containing text or pictures within 5 mm of its edges, or documents with a
color background, may cause errors in automatic size detection.

Placing Documents
Note the following points when placing documents on the scanner.
Place the front of the document toward you.
Do not exceed the load limit mark when placing documents in the
document tray. This may cause feeding errors or paper jams.

Load Limit Mark

A maximum of 200 documents can be loaded at one time.


Each eject pocket can hold the same number of documents as the
document tray. Remove the documents in the eject pockets before
scanning a different document.

Chapter 5

Troubleshooting

Feeding Trouble
If the document is not fed properly or the detection functions do not work properly,
remedy the problem by checking the following conditions.
Condition

A paper jam has occurred.

Cause and Remedy

Check to make sure that the size and thickness of the


document are within the supported range of the scanner,
and if the quality of the paper is appropriate.
For cautions on handling documents, see Documents,
on p.38.
Documents with rough surfaces may cause a paper feed
error to occur.
Scan one sheet at a time in the Bypass (manual) mode.
(See Manual Feeding (Bypass Mode), on p.43.)
Dirty or worn rollers inside the scanner may cause a
paper jam.
Clean the rollers if they are dirty. (See Cleaning the
Scanning Glass and Rollers, on p.55.) Worn rollers
must be replaced. Contact your dealer or Canon service
representative.
The separation roller gap is too wide. Adjust the
separation roller gap. (See Adjusting the Separation
Roller Gap, on p.66.)

Condition
Cause and Remedy

50

A double feed error occurred even though documents


are not being double fed.
A double feed error may occur when documents with
different thicknesses are mixed. Turn off the double feed
detection mode, if this happens.

5.3 Feeding Trouble

Condition
Cause and Remedy

MICR characters are not recognized correctly.


The scanner cannot correctly read MICR characters if
the magnetic heads are dirty. Clean the MICR magnetic
heads. (See Cleaning the Magnetic Heads, on p.58.)

ENGLISH

If MICR characters cannot be recognized correctly after


cleaning the heads, the MICR heads may be worn.
Contact your dealer or Canon service representative.
The MICR text is on the back of the document. Load the
side with the MICR characters face up in the document
tray.
Other Causes

Some of the MICR characters are scratched or missing.


Splattered MICR ink or toner may also be the problem.

Condition

The imprinter is not printing correctly (missing imprint


dots).
Ink is clogged in the ink jet nozzle. Clean the ink jet nozzle.
Cleaning the ink jet nozzle is recommended before using
the CR-180. (See Cleaning the Ink Heads and Ink
Absorber, on p.60.)

Cause and Remedy

Condition
Cause and Remedy

Documents get dirty when using the imprinter.


Ink from the imprinter has been placed on the feed path.
Clean the ink off the feed path. (See Cleaning the Ink
Heads and Ink Absorber, on p.57.)

Chapter 5

Troubleshooting

When the Scanned Image


Is Not Normal
If there is a problem with the scanned image (the image is not sharp or stripes
appear), one of the following conditions may be a probable cause. Check the
following conditions, and take the appropriate action.
The scanning glass or rollers are dirty.
If the scanning glass or rollers are dirty, the dirt will appear on the scanned
image.
Clean the scanning glass and rollers. For details, see Daily Cleaning,
on p.54.
The scan conditions are inappropriate.
If the scan conditions are inappropriate, the scanned image will not be sharp or
will appear as dark.
Check the brightness and other scanner settings.
If the scanned image is blurry or the document has not been scanned at all,
the brightness may be set too high.
If the scanned image appears dark, the brightness may be set too low.
Also, check the settings on the driver and the software application.
The driver or application does not run correctly.
If the document cannot be scanned correctly even if the scan conditions are
adjusted, the driver or the application may not be functioning correctly.
Reinstall the driver or application.
For details on how to install the driver, see Chapter 3, Software.
For details on how to install the application, see the applications instruction
manual.
Other Causes
Even if the computer may be recognizing the scanner correctly, and the driver
and the application is installed correctly, scanning may not be performed
correctly. If this happens, the interface card is not compatible. Use the
recommended interface card.
If the above remedies do not rectify the problem, contact your dealer or a Canon
service representative.
