Theory / Construction of Contact Toner


System ( KIP HDP )

3.2.1

General information on the process

In the KIP2000 series printer a reverse development method is used, both development
and cleaning process can be done at the same time.
Fig. 1 shows the configuration of no drum cleaner blade printing process.
The drum cleaner and the wasted toner bottle are not required, because the residual toner on
drum surface after transfer process is returned to the Development unit during the development
process.
Fig. 2 shows Simultaneous development and cleaning by the contact-type monocomponent
non-magnetic development system.

Print Process

Step 1. Erasing process


Drum surface charge is exposed by Eraser Lamp
prior to 1st charging.
Any residual charged potential on the drum
surface is removed by this step.
Any residual toner grains, not transferred on the
previous drum rotation, are still on the surface of drum.
The charge polarity of these toner grains
can be both negative and positive toner
particles. They are discharged to near 0 Volts under
this process.
(the small round spheres represent unused toner
on the drum surface.)

Step 2. Charging process


Drum surface is evenly charged by the negative 1st
Charger (Primary). The residual toner is also
charged by the 1st charger at this time, and
all grains are the same negative polarity as the drum
surface.
Surface potential of Drum is determined by the
potential of grid screen which is connected to
ground through a zener diode in order to get a
constant voltage. This voltage cannot be adjusted
in the KIP 2000

(2) Charging process

Step 3. Exposure process


With respects to the images data,
infrared light from the LED head is exposed to
the drums surface.
The negative electrostatic charge on the drum
is neutralized by this light, and surface potential
decreases. As a result, electrostatic Latent Image
is formed onto the drums surface.
At this time, if there is any residual toner grains
which may exist on the drums surface from the
previous rotation, they will be no concerns with
shading effects (blockage of LED head light by
residual toner on the drum) by toner grains
under the actual LED head exposure process.
This is so due to the fact that the diameter of the
toner grains are too small in diameter and they
will not block the LED light.

Step 4. Simultaneous Development and Cleaning process


Toner is always attracted to a more positive
Voltage. The negative charged toner in the Contact
Development Unit (see Vb, the Development
Roller potential) are attracted to the higher potential,
of an exposed area of the drum. (see figure 4,
Development arrows) This will cause the toner to
remain on these areas on the drum.
Simultaneously, on unexposed areas ( no LED light )
the lower Potential, (see Vd) the residual toner is
attracted to the development roller and therefore
removed from the drum surface (removing
unwanted toner from the drum or cleaning the drum)

Step 5. Transfer process


A positive corona is applied onto the media (from the
back) and intern the media s charged positive.
As a result, the more negative toner on the drums
surface is transferred to the media.
To prevent inefficient transfer and unwanted
toner on the back of the media, the Media Guide
Plate is grounded through a varistor.

(NOTE)
If the Guide Plate is grounded directly (shorted),
Vd
the back side of paper is not charged and causes
defective transfer.
If the Guide Plate is floating (not shorted or not held at the varistor voltage), the Guide Plate
may attract toner, thus causing unwanted toner (dirt) on the rear of media.

Step 6. Separation process


The media is charged positive by the transfer corona
and is attracted to the drums surface by static
electricity.
An AC corona discharger removes the static
electricity between drum and the media (paper).
As a result the media is separated from drum.

Step 7. Fusing process


The media with the toner image is fed through the Pressure Free Fuser (Convection Heat Process)
and the toner is fused to the media.

Development Unit Theory


The Toner Supply Roller ( 1 ) applies toner onto Development Roller ( 3 )The toner is attracted to more positive voltage of the Dev
Roller. Development roller rotates and the quantity of toner on the roller is controlled by the Regulation Roller ( 2 )
via a) regulation roller pressure and b) the difference in bias ( 20 Volts ) The excess toner on the Regulation Roller is removed by the
Regulation Blade (4)
The layer thickness of toner on the Development Roller is approximately 20 micrometers. The Development Roller
will not be fully or correctly coated until bias and rotation is applied at the same time to all three rollers.

1. Summary
Image Charger (negative charge) is controlling a constant-current system, so that
the corona charging is not affected by environmental variations.
Corona output is controlled ON or OFF by the signal HV_1ST from DC Controller.
Then signal 1ST_LD is fed back from HVP.

If corona current flows more than adjusted value because of environmental variation, for example,
feedback current level of current control circuit becomes higher.
In this case, current control circuit works to Image charger drive circuit in order to decrease
secondary current of high voltage transformer.
Since primary voltage of high voltage power source is kept constantly at this time, primary
feedback voltage is referred by voltage control circuit.
Image charger drive circuit is controlled constantly in this manner.

Charge Wire Cleaning Controller

1. Summary
This machine auto-cleans the Charge wire. A cleaning pad moves one
round trip along the charge wire via the Charger Wire Cleaning Motor(M4).
2. Operation
Charger Wire Cleaning Motor works under the following condition ( when power is applied ).
1) When the Fuser temperature is 50degrees centigrade or less.
When TH1 detected 50degrees centigrade or less, Charger Wire Cleaning Operation is done one
round trip. Signals change as WCMTR=L, WCMTR_DIR=L, motor starts and Cleaning pad is
send forward. When the Cleaning pad reaches to end of pass, WCMTR_OC (overload signal) is
output. After WCMTR_OC is output for approx. 0.5 sec., WCMTR turns H and motor stops.
For the next, signals change as WCMTR=L, WCMTR_DIR=H, motor starts reversibly.
When the Cleaning pad reaches to end, WCMTR_OC is output for 0.5 sec., WCMTR turns H
and motor stops.
2) In case the Fuser temperature exceeds 50degrees centigrade.
When TH1 detected it exceeds 50degrees centigrade, Charge Wire Cleaning Operation is not
done. However, in order to avoid Cleaning pad stays other end of pass, signals change
as WCMTR=L, WCMTR_DIR=H, and motor starts reversibly. In case the Fuser temperature
exceeds 50degrees centigrade, WCMTR_OC is output soon commonly and motor stops.

When each door is opened in case of jam treatment or etc., 24VDC for motors and High
Voltage Power Sources are shut down by relay (RY1), and ceases the output for driving
parts and High Voltage Power Sources.
[U-xx] is also indicated on display.
U-05: Upper unit / Toner supply door open
U-06: Paper exit door open
3. Paper Deck
When Paper Deck is opened, 24VDC for paper feed motor and paper feed clutches
(MC1, MC2A, MC2B, MC2C) are shut down, and paper feeding is ceased.
[U-01], [U-02], [U-03] or [U-04] is indicated on display.
4. Cartridge Motor (M6)
Cartridge Motor is prepared in order to get better contact between Developer Roller and Drum.
When Main Switch is turned ON, Developer Unit is pressed toward Drum by the rotation of Cartridge
Motor.
When Main Switch is turned OFF, or if the machine is left more than 55 min. without any job; charged
electric power in the Capacitors of Driver Board(PW6654) allows Cartridge Motor ON in order to
release the pressure from the Drum.

TH2 (Center) is controlling the temperature, while TH1 (Side) and TH3 (Bottom) are just
confirming the temperature during normal opertaions.
While TH2 is controlling the temperature at around 200 degrees, the temperature
around TH3 is around 180 degrees.
While continuous printing, temperature around TH3 decreases gradually.( lower plate )
When TH3 decreases less than 130 degrees, TH2 starts to control the temperature at 210
Degrees rather than 200.
Down Sequence 1
If temperature around TH3 goes down and reaches 110 degrees, printing
Is paused until it reaches up to 150 degrees.
(It is approx. 90 secs, dependent on the wall voltage)
Printing is paused during that period in order to help recover the temperature; it is called
Down Sequence.
Down Sequence 2
If TH2 detects 5 degrees less (adjustable with 4-2C) compare with 200 degrees during TH3
detects less than 130 degrees, this machine also enters to Down Sequence.
Once Down Sequence is taken, Ready indication of Operation Panel starts blinking
green, and it keeps blinking until the temperature of fuser is recovered.

Down Sequence caused by Toner Consumption

Toner circulates as shown arrows.

TLS1

TLS2

When TLS1 detects L status ( no toner ) for 15 seconds ( continuously ) toner is normally
supplied for 2 minutes from Toner Hopper
If TLS2 detects L ( no toner ) for 21 seconds continuously, the printing is paused for a few
minutes after current printing is finished, in order to help supplying toner much more.
However, if TLS2 detects H for 3 seconds, Down Sequence is cancelled at that moment.
If Toner Down Sequence occurs, the Toner indication of Operation Panel starts blinking
green, and it keeps blinking until the Down Sequence is complete.

(4) LED Head Strobe Time (Overall) (Sub Mode No.03)


It is possible to change the LED Head strobe time ( on / off time ).
This setting is the strobe time for all of 3 LED segments ( blocks ).
The units are in microseconds, and the setting range is from 00 to 48.
If you increase the value, the LED Head will produce more light and as the result image density becomes
darker.
Changes to this mode will be seen when producing test prints. Please note that the Scanner and
Powerprint Controller send this density information to the printer, this adjustment alone will not usually
correct density issues when copying or printing. Please produce test prints with the internal test patterns
to set the printer density. Then confirm that the Scanner density values and Powerprint controller density
values are set correctly before making any further adjustments to this sub mode.

(5) LED Head strobe time compensation (Left block) (Sub Mode No.04)
It is possible to adjust the strobe time ( lighting time ) of LED Head left segment (block). This may be
required to produce prints with even image density. ( see diagrams )
This setting is the compensation from the overall LED strobe time (Sub Mode No.03).
When you select the value 35 on the Sub Mode No.03 and select the value -05 in
Sub Mode No.04, the strobe time of the left segment is 30 microseconds.
35 ( value of No.03) - 5 ( value of No.04) = 30 (strobe time of left segment )
The units are in microsecond, and the range is from -10 to 10.
If you increase the value, the left block of LED Head will increase in light volume.
The result is the image density of left segment becomes darker.

(12) Fusing temperature cycle (Sub Mode No.0b)


It is possible to adjust the low range of fusing temperature ( cycle or ripple).
The setting unit is degree centigrade, and the setting range is from 0 to 30.
Fusing temperature rises and falls within the specified range.
The upper limit of range corresponds to the fusing temperature decided in each No.08, 09 and 0A.
The lowest limit is decided by the following formula.
Fusing temperature ( value of No.08, 09 and 0A) - value of No.0b = Lowest limit
(Example)
When the fusing temperature for plain paper is set to 175 in No.08
and the value of No.0b is 5, the lowest limit of fuser temperature is 170 degrees.
Temperature is controlled as follows.
1) When the fusing temperature rises up to the upper limit (175 degrees), the machine stops
heating up the Fuser Element.
- See (1) in the following figure.
2) Fusing temperature will drop during printing or during idle periods.
- see (2) in the figure.
3) When the temperature falls down to the lowest limit (170 degrees), the machine starts heating
the Fuser Element again.
-see (3) in the figure.
4) the Fuser Element is heated up until its temperature reaches the upper limit.
-see (4) in the figure.
5) The fusing temperature is kept within the 5 degrees range by repeating (1) to (4)
Fusing temperature : Upper limit

When you turn on the printer, the Fuser can be heated past the point which is set in Sub Mode No.08, 09

Temperature during the warm up period. The units are in degree centigrade, and the setting range is
from 0 to 40.
Supposing the fusing temperature decided in No.08 is 175 degrees centigrade and you select 10 as
the overshoot, the Fuser is heated up to 185 degrees centigrade during the warm up time.

(16) Transfer Corona ON timing (Sub Mode No.0F)


It is possible to adjust the on timing of the Transfer Corona.
The unit is mm, and the range is from 001 to 100.
If you increase the value, the on time of the Transfer Corona is delayed during the print process.
This will cause a greater amount of the leading edge image ( toner ) not to be transferred onto the paper.
It will remain on the Drum. As the result of it, the print will have a wider margin region on its leading
edge.
Turned on too late =
the leading edge image may be seen faintly on the print, this can poor image on the
leading edge and cause repeat of the lead edge further down the print
Turned on too early =
unwanted toner pulled from the drum / dev unit which may cause the printer to become
dirty very quickly, usually seen as toner on back of page and dirty corona wires
(Increasing the value by 1, the void gets 1mm longer.)

If you decrease the value, the Transfer Corona turns off earlier.
As a result a greater amount of trailing image (toner) is not transferred to the paper. It remains on
the Drum. This will cause the print to have a has a longer image void on the trailing edge.
(Decreasing the value by 1, and the void becomes 1mm longer.)

(20) Cut length (Copies Buffered from Scanner, Standard Cut or Prints from
Controller)
(Sub Mode No.13)
It is possible to adjust the cut length in this Sub Mode noting the following :
Copies from the K-75 Scanner:
A: When the speed of the Scanner and Printer matches ( K-66 with a 2050 Scanner, 50mm / sec )
- when using all Standard Cut lengths in the scanner
- when using Synchro Cut every copy, but the first copy.
e.g. when you have one orginal and have selected five copies to print, the first copy
does not use this cut length sub-mode ( see 4 - 14 ); copy numbers 2 to 5 uses this cut
length information! ( any image that is buffered before printing uses this cut signal )
B: When the speed of the Scanner and Printer does not match, ( K-66 with 2080, 2120 etc )
- when using all Standard Cut lengths in the scanner
- when using Synchro Cut every copy
e.g. when you have one orginal and have selected five copies to print, all prints use this
sub-mode! ( any image that is buffered before printing uses this cut signal, when the
speed does not match all images are buffered then spooled to the printer )
Prints from the Controller
All prints from Powerprint use this cut length mode
You can specify the cut length for each roll media sizes. The unit are in mm, and the range is from 01
to 20.
If you increase the value, the cut length is extended.
As the result, the white region at the trailing edge becomes longer, page size increases.

(22) Image Void Trail Edge (Copies Buffered from Scanner, Standard Cut or Prints
from Controller)
(Sub Mode No.15)
It is possible to adjust the end of the print image ( closing the image data bus or end of the image ) in
this Sub Mode noting:
Copies from the K-75 Scanner:
A: When the speed of the Scanner and Printer matches ( K-66 with a 2050 Scanner, 50mm / sec )
- when using Standard Cut
- when using Synchro Cut every copy, but the first copy.
e.g. when you have one orginal and have selected five copies to print, the first copy
does not use this image bus sub-mode ( see 4 - 16 ); copy numbers 2 to 5 uses this
data bus closure information! ( any image that is buffered in the scanner before
printing uses this signal )
B: When the speed of the Scanner and Printer does not match, ( K-66 with 2080, 2120 etc )
- when using Standard Cut
- when using Synchro Cut every copy printed
e.g. when you have one orginal and have selected five copies to print, all prints use this
sub-mode! ( any image that is buffered before printing uses this data bus closure
signal, when the speed does not match all images are buffered then spooled to the
printer )
Prints from the Controller
All prints from Powerprint use this data bus closure signal
You can adjust the closure of the bus for each roll media size. The units are in mm, and the range is
from 00 to 20.
If you increase the value, the image bus will be closed earlier, therefore removing image from the
trailing edge of the print. As the result, the white region at the trailing edge becomes larger ( page size
remains the same.)

Notes
(1) When Fuser Temperature Rising Error (E-01) or Fuser Over Temperature Error (E-02)
occurs during the usage of machine, it is impossible to clear the error even if you turn off
the machine after taking a proper treatment because it is memorized in the memory.
When these errors occur, do as follows.
1. Find the cause of error and take a proper treatment.
2. Turn on the machine.
The same Error Code will be indicated again as E-01.
Enter the Service Mode, and then select the Error Check Masking Mode.
3. Mask the error in the way mentioned on and after the next page.
The error will be cleared.
4. Do not forget to cancel error masking after clearing the error because it is
very dangerous if the machine ignores those errors.
(Error masking will be cancelled automatically if you turn off the machine or cancel
the Service Mode.)
(2) It is impossible to mask the Door Open Error.
