 1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION-

---\/ I. FEATURES
1. Front-loading.
- The copier is designed to accept cassettes from the front for ease of use (two cassettes
holding 250 sheets each).
l The copier is given two cassette holders, thereby eliminating the need for cassette
replacement in making copies of different sizes.
* The copiers multifeeder allows Jeeding multiple postcards.

2. Full line of automatic features

- The copier has an auto paper selection mechanism as standard, which selects paper of
the correct size in response to placement of a document.
- With the auto reproduction ratio selection mechanism, the copier calculates the correct
reproduction ratio according to the specified copy size.
* The AE (auto exposure) mechanism ensures crisp reproduction of newspapers and blue-
print documents.
I\ - The copiers auto-start feature lets you press the COPY START key during the wait period
: so that the copier will start making copies as soon as it becomes ready.

3. HQ jumping toner.
- The copier uses Canons own HQ (high quality) jumping toner for reproduction of clear
characters and photos.
l The toner is a single-component type, which provides stable images.
l In addition, a 30mm-dia. high sensitivity OPC drum is used to enable enhanced image
reproduction and a compact copier design.

4. Man-machine interface.
l As many as 20 copies (A4, landscape) may be made per minute.
- The zoom mechanism allows reduction down to 50% and enlarqement up to 200% of the
original image.
- The page separation mode serves to speed up copying bound documents.
- The copier accepts documents as small as a postcard or as large as A3.
* With the CT Unit (option), the copies may be in red, green, blue, or brown
-

5. A variety of options to choose from for full automation.

The copier commun/cates with its options at a higher speed than ever, resulting in more
output per given time.

* With options, up to 20 copies/min; 1:1 (A4, landscape).

* ADF-Al for automatic document feed.

- Sorter-Al for automatic sorting and grouping (20 bins)
MS-Al for automatic sorting aid grouping (70 bins).
l

* Control Card V (configured as built-in) for copy volume control (up to 200 groups).
Stapler Sorter-BNIl

If an area of this indicator flashes while

copying is taking place, it is likely that the
paper has jammed at the position repre-
sented by the part that is flashing. Check
and take action as follows.

THE CUSTOMER
Carefully instruct the customer to be
sure to clean the following parts of the
copier once a week.
1. Primary Corona Assembly
Slide in and out the wire cleaner to
clean the corona wires.
2. Copyboard Glass
Clean the copyboard glass with a moist
cloth, then wipe it dry.
3. Copyboard Cover
Clean the copyboard cover with a mild
detergent solution, then wipe it dry.
4. Transfer Corona Assembly
Remove the transfer corona assembly
from the copier, then slide the knob

The copier has two sensors to sense
whether copy paper is being fed normally.
lPreregistration paper sensor (02)
- Delivery paper sensor (Q5)
Paper jams can be identified by the
microprocessor by reading signals from the
sensors at predetermined times to check if
paper is at or not at a sensor at that time,
and thus identify if the paper is moving
through the copier correctly.
If a jam occurs, the copier memorizes
the number of copies that have not yet been
made and also the copier settings. This
information is stored in the copier, even if
the power is cut off by opening the front
door in order to reset the copier.

microprocessor judges that there is a jam if I
one of the sensors detects paper when the
power is switched ON.
1. Pick-up Assembly Delay Jam
If the copy paper does not reach the
paper sensor of the pick-up assembly within
a specified period after paper pick-up-starts,
the microprocessor will judge that a pick-up
delay jam has occurred, and immediately
stop the operation of the copier. Also, the
JAM indicator on the control panel will flash

The 24 VDC for the DC power supply is

The 5 VDC, on the other hand, is
supplied by the DC/DC converter after
conversion from 24 VDC.
The DC/DC converter generates the

The location of the copier should be
chosen based on the following conside-
rations. If possible, make a visit to the user
for a study of a site before delivery of .the
copier.

a. The ambient temperature should be

between 15 and 35C and the
humidity, 10% to 30%. Avoid locations
near water faucets, humidifiers, water
boilersand refrigerators.
Figure 5-l
b. Avoid locations near open fire or
subject to dust or ammonia fumes and
direct rays of the sun. Provide curtains
over the windows if necessary.

II. UNPACKING AND INSTALLING THE COPIER /_

When a piece of metal is moved from a cold place to a warm place, droplets of water form L
on its surface. This phenomenon is known as condensation and affects the performance of
machines, The simplest way to eliminate condensation in the copier, any machines for that
matter, is to leave it alone until it warms to room temperature (at least one hour)

A. Unpacking

Step Work Remarks

1 Open the coardboard packing case of

the copier and take out the box of
accessories.

2 Cut open the widest side of the packing ,-

case, avoiding the corner, containing the
metal staplara. ._I

3 Open up the side of the packing case

C. Checking the Operation
Step Work
1 Turn the door switch ON using the
door switch actuator.
2 Connect the power plug, and shift the
POWER switch to ON.
3 Set the cassette size to suit the needs
of the user.
4 Put copy paper in the cassette, and
set the cassette in the copier.
5 Set the copy tray on the copier.
6 Open the copyboard cover, and
remove the paper and the protection
seal from the document size plate.
7 Record the reading of the copy counter.
8 Make a copy after the COPY START
key has gone green.
Wait for ten seconds or more after the
drum has stopped, and make another
copy.
9 Check that the counter operates
properly.
Remarks
Check that the ADD PAPER and
CASSETTE OUT indicators go ON and
the WAIT indicator lights red.
See p. 5-9.
* Check that the ADD PAPER indicator
goes OFF.
- Press the keys, except the COPY
START key, on the control panel, and
check that each operation is correct.
Check the following:
* No abnormal sound is heard; and
* The ADD TONER indicator flashes
about five to ten seconds after the
second copy operation is over.
Check that the reading has increased by

Step Work Remarks

1 Remove the door switch actuator.

2 Disengage the developing assembly,

and slide it until it stops.

3 Shake the toner cartridge well.

4 Open the developing assembly lid, and

fit the boss on the rear end of the toner
cartridge into the hole of the plate on
the rear end of the developing
assembly; thereafter, pull the toner
cartridge to the front somewhat so that
it comes into contact with the boss
found on the left side of the front.

5 Hold the toner cartridge, and pull on

the seal to the front until it stops.

6 Tap lightlb on the top of the toner

cartridge until all toner hasfallen into
the developing assembly.

7 Remove the toner cartridge, and keep

it in an empty box.

8 Close the developing assembly lid, and

slide the assembly inside until it stops.

9 Turn the developing assembly lever

clockwise to engage it.

10 Close the front cover.

E. Checking the Image ./-

Step Work Remarks

1 Place the Test Sheet on the copyboard
glass, and check the image.
Check that copies are made without a
problem and the non-image width along
the leading edge is correct; otherwise,
make adjustments. Non-image width:
2.0 mm (approx.) for leading edge
2.5 mm (approx.) on left/right side

2 Feed paper from the multifeeder. fvlake two-sided and overlay copies, and
check that the operation is correct;
otherwise, make adjustments.

3 Put the OPERATORS MANUAL in the

document holder. ,

4 Clean up the area around the copier,

and fill out the Service Sheet.

When all above work is finished, install the options and the document holder.

n Points to Note for Photosensitive Drum
After Installation
The photosensitive drum is susceptible
to light and, if exposed to light, can cause
white spots or black lines on the copy
image; take note of the following:
Do not touch the drum; if its surface is
soiled, wipe off the dirt using a flannel cloth
coated with toner. Do not use paper, fint-
free or otherwise, or use a dry cloth or
solvent.

- Limit the replacement of the CT unit

within one minute;
l Limit the removal of jams within five
