1. Telephone System
1.1 Converting and Sending Voice in the Form of Electrical Signals
The human voice is a sound wave; in other words, air vibrations. Conversation between two people
results when such vibrations travel through the air and reach each other's ears. A string telephone
transmits the air vibrations generated between two people along a string stretched tight, thus allowing
conversation over a distance. In this system, a paper cup at one end of the string receives the air
vibrations, which are then transmitted along the string. A paper cup at the other end of the string
transmits them back to the air, so that they again become again audible sound waves.
A telephone is a device that replaces the vibrations transmitted by string with electrical signals. The two
paper cups correspond to microphone and speaker and the string to the telephone line. Because
electrical signals travel over the telephone line at a high speed with minimal attenuation, the telephone
enables conversation over great distances.
Voice is changed into electrical signals using electromagnetic induction, a process by which electrical
signals are generated by vibrating a coil in a magnetic field. Both the microphone and speaker exploit
this process. The microphone transduces sound into electrical signals using electromagnetic induction
that occurs at a moving coil coupled to a diaphragm picking up air vibrations.
On the other hand, the speaker functions in the reverse manner, transducing electrical signals back to
air vibrations. Therefore, its construction is basically the same as that of a microphone. Electrical
signals passing through a coil in the magnetic field vibrate the coil, which in turn vibrate the air to
reproduce the voice.

1.2 Analog and Digital Signals


An electrical signal generated by the telephone's microphone is an analog signal. The waveform of this
analog signal fluctuates responsive to the voice volume. When the voice is loud, the amplitude
(voltage) increases; when soft, the amplitude decreases. When the voice is high-pitched, the frequency
(number of vibrations) increases; when low-pitched, the frequency decreases.
A signal whose values change in a continuous manner with time like this is called an analog signal. In
contrast, a digital signal is a set of values that change with time in a discrete instead of continuous
manner. In other words, an analog signal is like a hill. A digital signal is like stairs.
A digital signal is a series of values obtained by sampling a continuous analog signal at a certain
required rate. For example, when sampling is by time, the rate is once a second, millisecond, etc.
Because the sampling reduces the amount of data along the time axis, the converted signal is
compressed and smaller in data size. Thus, once digitized, the signal information is thinned out
compared to the original analog signal.
Moreover, digital signal transmission is performed by dividing a continuously changing electrical signal
according to a certain rate of time, then converting each division to a value of 1 or 0, depending on
whether it is greater or less than a specified threshold value. Compared to an analog signal, a digital
signal offers precise data exchange because the only change that must be handled is that between 1
(high voltage) and 0 (low voltage) with respect to a standard value (the threshold value).

Chapter 6 Principle of Operation (Fax)


The difference between analog and digital signals can be easily understood by
comparing analog measuring instruments, such as clocks and scales with their
needles and gradations to digital gauges that display results as a value. An analog
instrument with a continuously moving needle, can, at least in theory, be read
beyond the decimal point to infinitely small divisions (12.47253... g, 35.1864... g,
etc.). A digital instrument, however, can only display results to the minimum
necessary decimal place (12.5 g, 35.0 g, etc.).

Conversion of an analog signal to digital signal is called AD conversion. The


reverse is called DA conversion. Image data read by a FAX is a digital signal in
which 0s and 1s are assigned according to whether or not there is black in the
squares of a paper surface divided into a grid. FAX communications that use an
analog telephone network perform DA conversion before transmitting the scanned
image from the phone, and AD conversion before printing the received data.

2. Telephone Call Connection Mechanism


2.1 Analog Telephone Network
To make a telephone call, the calling party and called party each must have a telephone set
(telephone). These telephones must be connected by a transmission route. The transmission route
includes switches located in central offices. The route itself comprises various components such as
metallic cable and optical cable. The entire transmission path between the two telephones is called an
analog telephone network.
An analog telephone network comprises the following four parts:

2.2 Telephone Call Connection Mechanism


1)

When the handset is lifted, the hook switch is activated and a transmission signal (400Hz/48VDC),
called a dial tone (DT), is sent from the local switch. The dial tone is audible at the handset
speaker, indicating that the calling party can start dialing.

2)

Entering the telephone number by rotating the dial or pushing the buttons transmits the number to
the local switch.
There are two types of telephone line corresponding to the two ways of
transmitting the phone number. They are known as dial types. Most recent
telephones can automatically distinguish the dial type.
One type is "Pulse Dialing (PD)", also called "Dial Pulse (DP)". After the rotary dial
on a dial phone is rotated, the dial returns to its original position. While returning,
the electric current is interrupted (dividing the signal into pulses) the number of
times corresponding to the number dialed. The switch derives the number from the
number of pulses. When the pulse repetition rate is ten pulses per second, it is
referred to as 10PPS (Pulses Per Second), when twenty, 20PPS.
The other type is a method known as "Tone Dialing (TD)", formally called "DualTone Multi-Frequency (DTMF)". Each button on a push-button phone is assigned a
unique pair of frequencies (the "tone"), from which the switch derives the number.

4)

When a connection between local switches is established, the local switch of the called party
sends a ringing signal to the telephone of the called party. The telephone that receives the ringing
signal emits its ringtone. At the same time, the called party's local switch sends a ring back tone
(RBT) to the calling party's telephone to indicate that a connection to the called party has been
established.

4. FAX System (Overview)


A FAX (abbreviation of facsimile) is a device that sends and receives image data using either an analog
or a digital telephone line. The following describes the analog line system (For G3, see 6. FAX
Standards).
The three basic units of a FAX are the scanner (for reading the image), the control circuit, and the
printer.
The scanner splits the image into a fine grid, then reads the brightness (white/black) of each cell. This
operation is called scanning. The white/black information is converted to a digital signal: bright cells
become 1, dark cells 0.
The digital signal from a scanned image is subjected to DA conversion (modulation) by the control
circuit to enable transmission over an analog telephone line. After conversion, the data is sent as an
analog signal. The sound audible during transmission is image data that has become an analog signal,
that is, an audio signal.
The analog signal arriving over the telephone line is then subjected to AD conversion (demodulation)
by the control circuit of the receiving FAX machine, and restored to a digital signal.
The black/white information obtained from the AD conversion is sent to the printer, where black cells
are reproduced on the paper at the positions where they were on the original.

5. Unit Mechanisms
Scanner
The SCANNER consists of the Image Input Terminal (IIT) and the Auto Document Feeder (ADF).
Document scanning is performed by the Carriage Assy in the Image Input Terminal.
A CCD Image Sensor is a light-receiving element that produces an electrical signal in response to
light.
The white areas of the original document reflect the light from the lamp. The black areas reflect no
light. The CCD Image Sensor read the light reflected from the original, outputting sequentially to the
control circuit which areas are white and which black as binary data (1/0 digital data: 1 bit).
To scan the original, the Carriage Assy (CCD Image Sensor Unit) must be shifted a
distance of one line after each line is scanned. When the original is scanned on the
platen glass (as for a flatbed scanner), the Carriage Assy is moved with respect to
the original. In the case of a FAX equipped with the ADF (Automatic Document
Feeder), scanning via the ADF is performed by moving the original with the
Carriage Assy fixed at one position. This is known as constant velocity transport
(CVT).
During scanning, the finer the grid into which the original is divided, the greater the
scanning precision of the original image. For a G3 FAX (normal mode: G3 Normal),
scanning is performed at the resolution of 8 divisions per millimeter (200 dpi) in the
horizontal direction and 3.85 divisions per millimeter in the vertical direction. This
means that the 200 dpi in-line Carriage Assy is shifted approximately four times per
millimeter in the vertical direction. For an A4 original, the data amounts to
approximately two million pixels. In the high-quality mode (G3 Fine), scanning
resolution is 8 divisions per millimeter in the horizontal direction and 7.7 divisions
per millimeter in the vertical direction, where the data amounts to approximately
four million pixels. As resolution increases, the amount of data also increases,
lengthening the transmission time.
Control Circuit
The control circuit executes scanning of image data by controlling the image scanner. A line of CCD
Image Sensor scans the original image one line at a time. When scanning of one horizontal line is
completed, the next line below is scanned. As this continues, the original is scanned from end to end
one line at a time and converted to digital data as black-and-white information.
Because this image data is a set of digital signals, it cannot be transmitted using an analog
telephone line. It must be subjected to DA conversion (modulation). On the other hand, the receiving
FAX machine must perform AD conversion to restore the incoming digital data to analog data.
DA conversion, analog signal transmission, analog signal reception, and AD conversion are all
performed by a modem (modulator/demodulator) in the control circuit. A modem consists of a
network control unit (NCU) for connecting to the telephone line and an A/D conversion unit for
performing DA and AD conversions.

After the telephone number is entered, the NCU automatically performs steps 1 and
2 of the line connection procedure described in 2.2 Telephone Call Connection
Mechanism.
If on the receiving end, step 6 is automatically performed to answer.
The following is the line connection procedure between two FAXes based on the steps 1 to 5 of 2.2
Telephone Call Connection Mechanism. At the receiving FAX, step 6 is also automatically performed.
1)

When an AT command (a modem control command) is sent from the control circuit to the modem,
the hook switch is activated, and a state is obtained that is identical to that when the handset of a
telephone is lifted. A dial tone (400Hz/48VDC) is sent from the local switch. The modem's speaker
emits the dial tone as an audible sound.

2)

After image scanning, the telephone number (a previously stored number, number entered by
pressing phone buttons, etc.) is automatically dialed and transmitted to the local switch.

3)

Steps 3, 4, and 5 for establishing a connection via the switches are identical to those for telephone.

6)

The receiving party's FAX automatically answers when it receives the call signal, and the hook
switch is activated. The local switch on the receiving party side receives a response signal and
stops sending tones to the sending and receiving parties, thereby establishing a communications
path between the both parties.
In the case of a telephone call, only voice conversion between the two parties follows. For FAX,
preparation for delivery of image data is required that includes the following types of exchanges:
The sending FAX indicates that the transmission is a FAX transmission.
The receiving FAX indicates that it is ready to receive and also its communications capacity.
The sending FAX then sends data in accordance with the receiving FAX's communications capacity.
Once mutual preparation is completed, image data sending and receiving is started. Image data is
modulated into an analog signal by the A/D converter at the sending FAX, then sent from its NCU.
Image data received by the NCU of the receiving FAX is demodulated into a digital signal by its A/
D converter and then sent to the control circuit. When image data reception is completed, the FAX
automatically disconnects the line (hook is OFF).
In summary, the NCU automatically executes a series of such operations from hook switch ON to
hook switch OFF.
The control circuit also retains other important functions such as data
compression and memory. With data compression, any part of the scanned image
data that consists of continuous white or black pixels is encoded into a single
element, thus compressing the volume of data.
Memory temporarily stores data during transmission and reception.

Printer
The printer prints image data from the control circuit onto the surface of paper. The principle is the
same as that of an ordinary printer in that black is applied to specified locations on the paper.

6. FAX Standards (ITU-T Recommendations)


International FAX standards (ITU-T recommendations) include G1 to G4. G1 to G3 use analog
telephone networks. G4 uses a digital telephone network (ISDN). G3 is the standard currently in
greatest use. FAXes conforming to Super G3, a recently added standard, are equipped with a fast
33.6kps modem and reduce transmission times to about half those of G3 FAXes.

7. Fault Isolation Procedure for FAX


Because a FAX is composed of multiple blocks, pinpointing a fault is problematic.
This section describes a simple fault isolation procedure that is based on the contents of 4. FAX
System (Overview).

7.1 Fault Occurs


First, try using the copy function. If the copy function's printing results are correct, the probability of a
fault in the FAX itself is low. The fault is likely in the telephone line or receiving FAX. If the fault is in the
telephone line, first retry sending. If there is no improvement, contact the telephone company. If the
copy function's printing results are incorrect, it can be determined if the fault is in the scanner or printer
by operating each unit separately via a computer.

7.2 Send Fault


1)

Problem with printing quality at receiving FAX, such as corrupt image, lines in image, top/bottom
cut off.
a) If copy function is normal
Cause: Degraded telephone line connection caused by noise, etc.; or a fault in receiving FAX's
printer.
Corrective Action:
Determine whether fault is in telephone line or at receiving FAX by trying copy function at
receiving FAX.
If the telephone line condition is degraded, white horizontal lines, missing rows,
and/or cut-off top/bottom may occur.
Branch connections or incoming call (call waiting) may also cause image
corruption.
b) If copy function is faulty
Cause: Dirt or fault in scanner.
Corrective Action:
Clean platen glass or repair scanner. If the original is being sent from the ADF, try executing
a copy with the original placed on the platen glass. If this solves the problem, the fault is in
the ADF.

Cannot dial
Cause: Incorrect connection. Incorrect setup of dial type and/or line type.
Corrective Action:
Correct the connection. Reset the dial type and/or line type to correct settings.
If the telephone line condition is degraded, white horizontal lines, missing rows,
and/or cut-off top/bottom may occur.
Branch connections or incoming call (call waiting) may also cause image
corruption.

7.3 Receive Fault


1)

Problem with printing quality, such as corrupt image, lines in image, top/bottom cut off.
a) If copy function is normal
Cause: Degraded telephone line connection caused by noise, etc.; or a fault in sending FAX's
scanner.
Corrective Action:
Determine whether fault is in telephone line or at sending FAX by trying copy function at
receiving FAX.
If the telephone line condition is degraded, white horizontal lines, missing rows,
and/or cut-off top/bottom may occur.
Branch connections or an incoming call (call waiting) may also cause image
corruption.
b) If copy function is faulty
Cause: Dirt or fault in printer.
Corrective Action:
Clean all parts of printer or repair printer.

2)

Does not emit response signal


Cause: Incorrect connection. Incorrect setup of dial type, line type, and/or reception mode.
Corrective Action:
Correct the connection. Reset the dial type, line type, and/or receive mode to correct
settings.
If a call is made to the FAX from a telephone, and the FAX does not emit its ringing
sound, a telephone line fault is highly probable.

8. Other Problems
Branch Connection (Parallel Connection)
During FAX reception, if the handset of another telephone on a branch connection is lifted, the
received image may be corrupted or a transmission error may occur. Branch connection may also
interfere with caller identification, call waiting, the receiving operation of connected telephones.
Call Waiting
If a call comes in during FAX sending/reception, as with branch connections the image may be
corrupted.
DSL (Digital Subscriber Line)
DSL, a high-speed digital transmission method using existing telephone lines, has several types.
These include ADSL (Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line) with differing upstream and downstream
transmission speeds, SDSL (Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line) with symmetrical upstream and
downstream transmission speeds, and VDSL (Very high bit rate Digital Subscriber Line) which
features higher speed. However, because the line is used for both voice and data transmission,
various problems may occur, such as noise during spoken conversation, low sound volume, and
mis-dialing. Replacing the splitter may improve the situation.
Noise
If electronic equipment (television, computer, microwave, etc.) or devices equipped with motors are
located near a FAX, noise from them may degrade the line condition.
Also, a telephone line, acting as an antenna, may absorb electric waves generated from wireless or
broadcasting equipment.
Because FAX data is audio data, the line quality affects the quality/stability of image data as well as
that of conversation.

- Pinch Roll Assy
The Pinch Roll Assy is normally pressed against the direction of the Takeaway Roll by the spring
pressure.
Documents are fed through between the Pinch Rolls and the Takeaway Roll to the CVT Window by the
rotation of the Takeaway Roll.
If a jam occurs between the Pinch Roll Assy and the Takeaway Roll, it is hard to retrieve documents
due to the high spring pressure of Pinch Roll Assy.
In order to retrieve jammed documents, open the Cover Assy TOP ADF to release the spring pressure,
and make enough clearance between the Pinch Rolls and the Takeaway Roll.

12. Control (IIT)


Refer to "17. Control (IOT)" for Control of IOT.

12.1 Document Scanning Steps


A CCD Image Sensor is used to read image data from the document. To ensure stabilized image
reading, the CCD Image Sensor output is adjusted. Adjustment includes Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
and Automatic Offset Control (AOC).
Reference data for adjustment is collected and used to perform compensation on the read image data.
Compensation includes shading compensation, white variation compensation, and black variation
compensation. These adjustment and compensation steps are described below.
Reference data is obtained by reading image data from a white reference plate via the CCD image
sensor.
12.1.1 AOC (Auto Offset Control)
AOC is performed by turning off the Exposure Lamp after AGC. This state is read by the CCD Image
Sensor as the black reference value, which is used to adjust CCD Image Sensor output. (The order of
AGC and AOC adjustment depends on the model.)
12.1.2 AGC (Auto Gain Control): White Level Variation Adjustment
During AGC, the Scanner ASSY is moved to the position of the white reference plate, and the Exposure
Lamp is illuminated. The light reflected from the white reference plate is read by the CCD Image Sensor
as the white reference value, which is used to adjust CCD Image Sensor output.
12.1.3 Shading Compensation
Shading compensation compensates for pixel-by-pixel sensitivity variations and the nonuniformity of
lamp light in the fast scanning direction. The AGC and AOC adjustment values are used to compensate
for the image data read by the CCD Image Sensor.

Chapter 6 Principle of Operation


14.3.1 Multiple Sheet Feed Prevention
The sheets set in a cassette or cassette is occasionally stuck together along the edges. The stuck
sheets cause a multiple sheet feed or a jam. The sheets are fed by the ROLL ASSY FEED(PL2.2.4) to
a position between the ROLL ASSY FEED and the SEPARATOR ROLLER(HOLDER ASSY
SEPARATOR:PL2.2.10). Normally, when only one sheet is fed, both the ROLL ASSY FEED and
SEPARATOR ROLLER rotate to allow the sheet to pass. However, when two sheets are fed
concurrently, only the ROLL ASSY FEED rotates and the SEPARATOR ROLLER is locked thereby
allowing the upper sheet to pass by being separated from the lower sheet that is stopped by the friction
with the SEPARATOR ROLLER at rest.
The SEPARATOR ROLLER is being pushed toward the ROLL ASSY FEED by spring pressure, and
controlled by the torque limiter (Clutch Assy Friction) with which it is coupled.

14.4.1 Lead-edge Registration
When a sheet fed out of the cassette directly reaches the toner transfer section, the toner image may
not be transferred at the correct position on the sheet due to misalignment of lead edges in the
cassette.
To avoid this problem, the lead edge position of the sheet needs to be corrected at the registration
section before the sheet is forwarded to the toner transfer section.
By thrusting the edge of the sheet fed out of the cassette against the Regi Roll (ROLL REGI: PL2.3.1/
ROLL ASSY PINCH REGI: PL2.3.2) that is locked, the lead edge position of the sheet is corrected.

Chapter 6 Principle of Operation

17. Control (IOT)


17.1 Process Control
The parameters related to image formation must be corrected to stabilize printing. The control of the
entire printing process including the parameter correction control is called "process control".
The process control is performed by the following two methods after every 30 cumulative prints upon
termination of a print run or during a continuous run:
Potential Control
Toner Density Control
To supplement these two controls, the following controls are provided:
High Area Coverage Mode
Admix Mode
17.1.1 Potential Control
To stabilize the print image density, the drum charging voltage, the developing DC voltage, and the
LED light amount of the LPH are adjusted according to the ever-changing developing capability of each
color developer. The adjusted drum charging voltage, the developing DC voltage, and the LED light
amount of the LPH are fed back to keep the print image density constant.
The outline of control is as follows:
1) The HUMIDITY SENSOR (temperature and humidity sensor) detects the temperature and
humidity.
2) The patches of respective colors (yellow, magenta, cyan, and black) for the potential control are
generated and transferred onto the Belt.
3) The ADC Sensor (density sensor) detects the density of the patches on the Belt.
4) The drum charging voltage, the developing DC voltage, and the LED light amount of the LPH are
adjusted for each color according to the detected patch density.

Chapter 6 Principle of Operation


17.1.2 Toner Density Control
The toner density must be kept constant to stabilize the print image quality. The control system for this
purpose is called toner density control.
1)

ICDC (Image Count Dispense Control)


The quantity of the toner to be consumed in the developing process is calculated in terms of tonerdispensing time based on the quantity of the video signals that have been input to the LPH. The
amount of the toner to be fed to the developer section is controlled by turning on the Toner Motor for
the toner-dispensing time thus calculated.

2)

ADC (Auto Density Control)


The patches of respective colors (yellow, magenta, cyan, and black) for the toner density control are
generated under the specified potential condition, and then transferred onto the Belt. The ADC
Sensor measures the densities of these patches and compares them with the reference value. If the
toner density is lower than the reference value, the toner dispense quantity is increased at the next
printing. If the toner density is higher than the reference value, the toner dispense quantity is
reduced at the next printing. The toner dispense quantity is calculated in terms of the tonerdispensing time on a color-by-color basis.

17.1.3 High Area Coverage Mode


A continuous printing of a high area coverage data that exceeds the extra toner dispense capability
causes the toner density in the developer to be lowered.
The High Area Coverage Mode postpones the next page feed and dispenses the toner during this time
if the toner dispense time has reached the specified value during a continuous printing.
17.1.4 Admix Mode
This mode executes extra toner dispensation to prevent the toner density from being lowered whenever
the value of the toner density control patch measured by the ADC Sensor falls far below the reference
value. If the toner density level cannot be recovered even after this operation, it is determined that the
toner has run out.
17.1.5 ADC Sensor Adjustment
The ADC Sensor is a reflection type sensor that irradiates the light from its LED onto the target and
detects the reflected light at its photoreceptor and outputs electric signals responsive to the amount of
the detected light. To ensure an accurate patch density measurement, the surfaces of the ADC Sensor
is cleaned to remove soil due to toner, etc., and the light quantity adjustment is made so that the
reflected light quantity satisfies the predetermined value when the patch for potential control and toner
density control are created.

Chapter 6 Principle of Operation

17.2 Color Registration Control


The printer uses a tandem system where the drums and developers are arranged respectively for each
of yellow, magenta, cyan, and black colors. Since the four color-separated images are overlaid one
another onto the print medium, a color shift may occur. The color registration control calculates how
much the registration is shifted, and adjusts the LPH write timing.
The lateral registration control adjusts all of the four colors in lateral directions.
The color registration control is executed during a process control based on the change in the internal
temperature and the print count.
The control is outlined below:
1) With no toner on the Belt, the output value of the ADC Sensor is measured to determine the
threshold value.
2) The patch for color registration control is generated on the Belt. This patch is composed of four
cycles of a color pattern, each containing 10mm-wide color bars starting with a black trigger line
followed by K, C, K, M, K, and Y (in this order).

3) The density of the patch is measured by the ADC Sensor.


4) The shift correction amount is calculated from the threshold value determined in 1) and the patch
density measured in 3).
5) The LPH write timing is changed according to the shift correction amount.

Chapter 6 Principle of Operation

17.3 Fusing Control


17.3.1 Fusing temperature control
To control the Fusing temperature, the target temperature is set, and then the Heater Lamp is turned
on/off so that the surface temperature of the Heat Roll satisfies the target value.
The surface temperature of the Heat Roll is detected by the Temp. Sensor (NCS = Non-Contact
Sensor) in the middle of the Heat Roll and the Temp. Sensors (STS = Soft Touch Sensor) at the end
sections. When the temperature detected is higher than the target value, the Heater Lamp will be
turned OFF. When the temperature is below the target value, the Heater Lamp will be turned ON.
However, the STS may detect a temperature lower than the actual value when an error occurs during
the temperature detection. To prevent, in such a case, the Heater Lamp from activating for too long a
duration until it melts or burns the Fusing Assy, the Heater Lamp is turned off unless Warm-up is
completed within the specified time.
The target temperature varies depending on the printer status such as Warm-up, Printing, or Process
Control, and is calibrated according to the interior temperature detected by the Sensor Hum Temp, the
temperature difference between the middle and the ends of the Heat Roll, the printing mode, and the
input power supply voltage.

17.3.2 Cooling down


As the printing continues, the temperature of the Heat Roll becomes nonuniform between the area that
contacts the sheet and the area that does not. In such a case, the paper feeding is suspended for a
certain duration to compensate for the temperature nonuniformity of the Heat Roll. This is called
"Cooling Down".
When the temperature of the Heat Roll end is high, cooling down is performed to lower the temperature
to the target value.

17.3.3 Sensor Warm-up


The Temp. Sensor (NCS) in the middle section of the Heat Roll loses its measuring accuracy when the
temperature of the sensor itself is -5C or below. Therefore, the sensor will be warmed up to 0C when
its temperature is -5C or below. This is called "Sensor Warm-up".
