    d) Pump This is a tube pump system consisting of two ink tubes (one for black and one for color) pressurized by a rotating roller. A negative pressure is thereby created to suck the ink. Inside, there is a valve dedicated to black ink and one dedicated to color ink. When the valves close or open separately or simultaneously, only the black ink (col[...]

    3.3 P aper Feed Section 3.3.1 P aper feed components The paper feed components include an ASF incorporating a friction separation system which uses a separation pad. Compared to previous ASF systems, it has a very strong paper feed force. It consists of the following parts: Paper feed roller and separation pad, pressure roller and return corner, pr[...]

    3.3.2 Friction separation system The friction separation system's paper separation method is explained below. 1. When the paper feed roller turns, the top sheet of the paper stack is taken to the nip where the pressure roller contacts the paper feed roller. 2. When the top edge of the paper reaches the nip, the paper pushes down the pad by the[...]

    4. LOGIC BO ARD COMPONENTS a) Printer controller (IC101) The printer controller has the following eight functions. It operates with a 48 MHz external clock (not synchronized with the CPU). 1. I/F control The data is transferred with a serial (USB 1.1 standard) or parallel (IEEE 1274 standard) transmission. Parallel transmissions operate in the comp[...]

    7. Print head control Serial print data is sent to the print head. The transfer clock is 6 MHz. Since data latch occurs at the clock's start-up and shutdown, the data transfer speed is faster. Also, the print head heater's heating is executed with a single pulse or double pulse. In the case of a double pulse, the first pulse is a press pu[...]

    d) DC motor driver (IC504/505) The motor driver IC is for driving the DC motor (paper feed motor and carriage motor). This driver is a PWM (pulse-width modulation) IC that changes the current's pulse width to control the output. It thereby controls the motor. The pulse-width control is defined by the serial data (10 bit) from the printer contr[...]

    6. INK SUCTION AMOUNT IN THE CLEANING MODE The printer has five cleaning modes (A to G). Cleaning is executed for maximum effectiveness and efficiency. The cleaning operation is selected depending on the respective condition. The ink suction operation differs depending on the condition at three occasions: Operation by the user, cover open/closing, [...]

    8. PRINT HEAD The two nozzle arrays for each CMY color are divided symmetrically left and right along the M line. This makes it completely compatible with bi-directional printing. Also, the relative position of the two nozzles is shifted by 600 dpi for black and by 1200 dpi for color. Thus, the two nozzles together on a single pass produce 600 dpi [...]
