tion, reproduces documents of difficult reproduction.
2) The power consumption for FAX standby with the power OFF
is 1W or less, reducing energy expenses of nighttime and load
to the environment.
3) Extension of the lifetime of the OPC drums together with the
frequency of maintenance realizes resource saving.
4) The unique security system inhibits unauthorized use of the
machine, preventing against leak of information.
The electronic data are encrypted and saved in the hard
disk. When copying or printing or when sending FAX or
scanning, data are automatically erased to protect against
leak of important information (When option installed.).
The user authentication system by a login name, a pass-
word, and an e-mail address is employed to prevent against
unauthorized use of a third party and to limit the use quantity
and usable functions for each user group. In addition, the
user authentication by the optional IC card read/writer may
be used.

5) The open systems architecture (Sharp OSA) is supported


which provides application development environment accord-
ing to user's needs.
6) Compact area for installation even to a space for a mono-
chrome machine
The machine can be installed to a space for a monochrome
machine, the smallest space in the class of 645mm (W) x
670mm (D), helping backup of color documentations in an
office. The installation of the optional finisher (MX-FNX1)
which is stored in the center paper exit section of the machine
allows stapling and finishing such as punch holes automati-
cally, improving the work efficiency.

1) Auto color balance adjustment by the serviceman) (SIM 67-24
I used.)
2) Auto color balance adjustment by the user (The user program
is used.) (The color balance target becomes the service tar-
get.)
The auto color balance adjustment by the user is provided to
reduce the number of service calls.
If the print color balance is lost for some reasons, the user can
use this color balance adjustment to recover the balance.
When, however, the machine has a fatal problem or when the
machine environment is greatly changed, this function does
not work effectively.
On the other hand, the auto color balance adjustment by the
serviceman functions to recover the normal color balance
though the machine environment is greatly changed. If the
machine has a fatal problem, repair and adjust it for obtaining
the normal color balance.
To perform the adjustment, the above difference must be fully
understood.

2. Operational descriptions
A. Outline B
This section functions and operates as follows: G
1) The copy lamp radiates light onto the document, and the R
reflected light is scanned by the three line (RGB) CCD element
and then converted into image signals (analog).
2) The image signals (analog) are converted into 10bit digital sig-
nals by the A/D converter.
3) The image signals (digital) are sent to the image process sec-
tion (scanner control PWB).

Each color pixel has 10bit information (256 gradations).
Each color component of RGB is separately extracted from the
document image by the three lines (RGB) of the CCD elements. 2) Each 10bit digital image signal of RGB is sent to the image
process section.
The red CCD extracts the red components from the document
image, the green CCD the green components, and the blue CCD
the blue components. This operation is called Color Separation. CCD PWB

MX3500N TRAY PAPER FEED SECTION E 2


2. Operational descriptions
A. Preliminary operation before paper feed
When the paper is set and the paper feed tray is inserted, the
pickup roller moves down and the paper feed tray sensor turns
ON.
The lift-up motor operates to lift the rotating plate.
The paper upper limit sensor turns on to stop the rotating plate at
the specified position.

B. Paper feed operation


When copy/print operation is started, the motor and the clutch
are turned ON and the pickup roller is rotated in the paper pickup
timing to feed paper.
At the same time, the paper feed roller rotates to feed paper to
the transport section. At that time, the separation roller rotates to
prevent against double feed of paper.

C. Remaining paper detection


Remaining paper detection is performed according to four
stages, i.e. three stages with paper and one stage with no paper,
and the result is displayed.

D. Remaining paper detection method


The number of remaining sheets is determined according to the
number of times the remaining paper sensor changes from the
time the paper feed tray starts lifting up to the time when the
upper detection sensor comes ON.

changes in status according to the number of remaining sheets)

A. Paper transport section
Paper is fed from each paper feed section and transported to the
resist roller by the transport rollers. ON/OFF control of each trans-
port roller is made by the paper transport clutch. The resist roller
controls the relative positions of transported paper and the transfer
image. The resist roller is driven by the transport motor. The rela-
tive positions of paper and the transfer image are determined by
the ON timing of the transport motor.

When LED lights are radiated to the OPC drum CGL, negative

Therefore, positive charges and negative charges are bal-

PCSS Process control shutter solenoid Opens/closes the shutter of the process control and the registration sensor.
REGS_F/R Registration sensor Detects the registration shift.

2. Operational descriptions
A. Process control sensor control
The shutter is provided on the monochrome (PCS_K) and color
(PCS_CL) process control sensor. When the shutter is opened (the
image density is corrected), the toner patch formed on the transfer
belt is scanned by the process control sensor and the information is
passed to the PCU.
When the shutter is closed, the gray resin section on the back of
the shutter is scanned to perform calibration of the sensor itself.
The shutter operation is controlled by the process control shutter
solenoid (PCSS).

B. Registration sensor control


The registration sensor is attached to the F side (REGS_F) and the
R side (REGS_R). When the shutter is opened, the registration
image formed on the transfer belt is scanned by the sensor and the
information is passed to the PCU.

B. Heater lamp drive


The surface temperature of the heat roller detected by the ther-
mistor is sent to the PCU. When the temperature is lower than the
specified level, the heater lamp lighting signal is sent from the PCU
to the heater lamp drive circuit in the sub power PWB.
The power triac in the heater lamp drive circuit is turned on, and the
AC power is supplied to the heater lamp, lighting the lamp and
heating the heat roller.
To prepare for an abnormally high temperature of the heat roller,
the thermostat is provided for safety.
When the thermostat is opened, power supply (AC line) to the The heater lamp is provided in the upper and lower heat rollers and
heater lamp is cut off. the sub roller. It heats paper up and down.
This is because it is necessary to heat four layers of toner from
above and below and right and left to fuse it on paper.
The upper and lower heat rollers are of silicon rubber.
This is because of the following reasons:
1) To provide a greater nip quantity and a higher heating capacity
for paper.
2) The soft, flexible rollers press multi-layer toner without defor-
mation to fuse on paper.
3) An even pressure is applied to an uneven surface of multi-
layer toner.
The sub roller has the following functions.
1) Helps fusing and keeps the fusing temperature under special
conditions.
2) Remove and clean paper dust and toner from the upper heat
roller.

(1) NOTE FOR THE USE OF LEAD-FREE SOLDER THREAD


When repairing a lead-free solder PWB, use lead-free solder thread.
Never use conventional lead solder thread, which may cause a breakdown or an accident.
Since the melting point of lead-free solder thread is about 40C higher than that of conventional lead solder thread, the use of the
exclusive-use soldering iron is recommendable.

(2) NOTE FOR SOLDERING WORK


Since the melting point of lead-freeCOPYRIGHT XXXX
solder is about 220C, which BYSHARP
is about 40C higherCORPORATION
than that of conventional lead solder, and its soldering
capacity is inferior to conventional one, it is apt to keep the soldering iron in contact with the PWB for longer time. This may cause land
separation or may exceed the heat-resistive temperature ALLofRIGHTS
components. Use enough care to separate the soldering iron from the PWB when
RESERVED.
completion of soldering is confirmed.
Since lead-free solder includes a greater quantity of tin, the iron tip may corrode easily. Turn ON/OFF the soldering iron power frequently.
If different-kind solder remains on the soldering iron tip, it is melted together with lead-free solder. To avoid this, clean the soldering iron
tip after completion of soldering work. No part of this publication may be reproduced,
