Reference

Even if the KIP9000 is printing, it is possible to open the drawer and replace/install the roll
media without interrupting the print operation. However, it is not necessarily allowed to open
any drawer at any time. A certain drawer can not be opened in the following situations.

1. When the roll media is fed from a certain drawer, this drawer can not be opened.
2. When the media (including cut sheet media) fed from other drawer is passing through the
media path in a certain drawer, this drawer can not be opened.

See the following section diagram. Media feeding paths from each Roll Deck is integrated into
one path in the middle drawer. When the KIP 9000 is printing with the roll media fed from the
Roll Deck 1 for example, only the bottom drawer can be opened. (“in use” Indicators for top
and middle drawers will light orange in this case.)

3. 1 Characteristic of Toner
The toner used on KIP9000 has a characteristic to be charged “negative” (like a negative object),
which tends to be attracted to a relatively “positive” object.

Suppose that there are objects A and B, and the situation is as follows.

1. Electric potential of the object B is higher than that of object A.


2. Toner exists on the object A.

Comparing the potential of both objects, it can be said that the object B is relatively “positive” and
the object A is “negative”. (In another word, object B is more “positive” than the object A.) As the
toner is “negative”, it is attracted to the object B which is more “positive”. If the object B is moved
close to the object A, the toner moves onto the object B.

Object A with low potential A


(Relatively negative) A A
Toner moves from A to B.

Object B with high potential B B


B
(Relatively positive)

On the contrary, suppose that the toner exists on the object B of which electric potential is higher
than the object A. Even if the object A is moved close to the object B, the toner continues to stay
on the object B because negative toner and relatively negative object A repel each other.

Object A with low potential A


(Relatively negative) A A
Toner stays on B.

Object B with high potential B B


(Relatively positive) B

Thus, the toner has a characteristic to move from one place with a lower potential to another place
with a higher potential. By controlling the electric potentials properly, it is possible to move the
toner from one place to another as intended, or it is also possible to remove the toner from
unwanted place. The movement of toner is controlled correctly thus and several processes as
Development, Toner Transfer, Drum Cleaning and etc. are performed.

Reference
When printing is going to finish or when the used Roll Deck is changed with other one, “Toner

3. 2. 1 Erasing
As the first step of print cycle, the negative electric charges on the Drum are removed by Erasing
process, which remained there after the former print cycle.
The Drum has a characteristic to lose the negative electric charges when exposed to the light. So
the Drum is rotated and evenly exposed to the light from the Eraser Lamp. The electric potential on
the Drum becomes 0V as a result of this process.

3. 2. 2 Drum Cleaning
Small amount of toner is remaining on the Drum as it was not transferred onto the printing media in
the former print cycle. Drum Cleaning is a process to remove such toner from the Drum with the
Cleaning Roller.
The Cleaning Roller is supplied with +800V (+/-3V) in the print process, and the potential of Drum
is 0V at this time as the Eraser Lamp removed the negative electric charges in the former “Erasing”
process. As the Cleaning Roller is relatively “positive” against the Drum potential, the toner moves
from Drum to Cleaning Roller.

The Cleaning Roller may not be able to remove all the toner completely from the Drum if a

toner not removed completely by Drum Cleaning will be removed from the Drum in later
Development Process.

3. 2. 3 Charge of Drum
The Image Corona takes negative discharging, and the Drum surface is charged negatively with
-XV evenly by this process. The Drum surface charged with -XV corresponds to the white area of
the printed image pattern.

The value of surface potential “-XV” is not constant. The Auto SP Control automatically changes
the surface potential to the most appropriate level according to the information from Surface
Potential Sensor and Temperature Sensor. (Refer to [3.4.2 Auto SP Control] on page 3-26 for
more detail.)

3. 2. 4 Exposure
According to the printed image pattern, the LED Head throws light onto a certain area of the Drum
that corresponds to the black area of printed image pattern. As the Drum has a characteristic to
lose the negative electric charges when exposed to the light, the potential of this exposed area is
increased to about -50V. The other part of Drum surface not exposed to the LED light keeps about
-XV of Surface Potential which has been given by the Image Corona. An invisible electric image
pattern that consists of about -XV area and about -50V area is formed on the surface of Drum as a
result. (This is called “Electrostatic Latent Image”.)

Reference

(1) The LED Head illuminates with 8 different light-on time. These 8 light-on times are called
IE (Image Enhancement) Levels. Each singular pixel included in the print image is exposed
with any of these 8 IE Levels according to its “visual appeal power”. That means the
strength of illumination from the LED is not constant but varies flexibly. See [REFERENCE]
on page 8-81 for the description of IE Level.

(2) The light from LED Head will not be blocked even if there remains the toner on the Drum
as the diameter of toner is much smaller than that of 1 pixel of LED. It is unnecessary to
worry about the effect on the printed image.

3-8 K115sm3e1.doc
3. 2. 5 Development
The Developer Roller is evenly covered with the toner, and it is contacted to the Drum firmly. (The
width of contacting area is about 5mm.) The Developer Roller is supplied with -YV of Developer
Bias which is flexibly adjusted by the Auto Density Control. On the other hand, an Electrostatic
Latent Image consisting of -XV area and -YV area exists on the Drum. The relationship among -XV,
-YV and the exposed part of the Drum (about -50V) are as follows.

-XV (White image area of Drum) < -YV (Developer Bias) < -50V (Black image area of Drum)

Seen from the voltage of Developer Roller Bias (-YV), the -50V area on the Drum that was
exposed to the light from the LED is relatively “positive”, so the toner moves from the Developer
Roller to the -50V area of Drum. On the other hand, the -XV area is relatively “negative” seen from
the Developer Roller, so the toner does not move to the -XV area but stays on the Developer
Roller. A visible toner image is formed on the Drum as a result.

The value of Developer Bias “-YV” is not constant. The Auto Density Control automatically
changes the Developer Bias to the most appropriate level according to the information from the
Density Sensor. (Refer to [3.4.1 Auto Density Control] on page 3-23 for more detail.)

Reference

Very small amount of toner may be remaining on “white image area” (corresponds to -XV
area) of Drum if Drum Cleaning process could not remove the toner completely. Such
unnecessary toner in white image area can be removed surely by the Developer Roller
because of the relationship of potential between Drum and Developer Roller.

-XV [Drum] < -YV [Developer Roller]

So there is no possibility that such unnecessary toner will appear on the print as a black spot.
(Toner removed by Developer Roller is returned to the Developer Unit and reused.)

1. Toner remained on the white image area (-XV) of Drum


2. When the toner contacts on the Developer Roller, it moves from Drum (-XV) to
Developer Roller (-YV) as the potential of Developer Roller is relatively “positive” against
Drum.
3. Developer Roller transports the toner toward the Toner Supply Roller
4. Toner Supply Roller returns the toner to the inside of Developer Unit.
5. Toner is used again for development.

3. 2. 6 Pre-transfer LED
The potential of non-toner area of the Drum is -XV even after the Development process, which is
so high that the print media may not be separated smoothly from the Drum on later Separation
Process as it is strongly attracted to -XV area by the static force, and may result in a jam in the
worst case. To reduce the static force in advance before Separation Process, the Pre-transfer LED
throws light onto the Drum to remove the negative electric charges some degree from non-toner
area. The potential of non-toner area is increased from -XV to about -80V by Pre-Transfer Process.

3. 2. 7 Transfer
The Transfer Corona takes positive discharging to charge the printing media positively. As the
toner existing on negative Drum surface is attracted to the positive printing media, the toner image
can be transferred onto the media.
The voltage supplied to the Transfer Corona Wire is as follows.

Transfer Guide Plate

Reference

The Transfer Guide Plate in front of the Transfer Corona is grounded through the Varistor
which keeps only the necessary positive electric charges while dismissing excess charges to
the ground.

1. If the Transfer Guide Plate is directly grounded, the positive electric charges given to the
printing media will escape to the ground through the Transfer Guide Plate. As the printing
media is not enough charged positive, much toner remains on the Drum without being
transferred onto the media. The image looks very light in this case.

2. If the Transfer Guide Plate is completely floated from the ground so as to block the
escape route of the positive electric charges, it collects too much positive charges
because the Transfer Corona exists nearby it. As the Transfer Guide Plate is more
strongly charged positive than required, it attracts the toner flying inside the machine. This
toner attracted onto the Transfer Guide Plate will cause the dirt on the back of the print.

3-12 K115sm3e1.doc
3. 2. 8 Separation
The printing media is stuck to the Drum after the Transfer being attracted by the static force. It is
necessary for avoiding the jam to separate the media from the Drum smoothly removing the static
force. The Separation Corona takes AC discharge being supplied with the AC voltage and the DC
voltage.

AC voltage : 11KVp-p
DC voltage : -250V for plain paper
-300V for tracing paper
- 10V for film)

As the AC voltage is compensated by the negative DC voltage, the negative charges are provided
to the printing media more than positive ones. The positive charges on the printing media are
offset by these negative charges. On the other hand, the Separation Lamp throws light from under
the Separation Corona to remove the negative charges of the Drum. The static force between
media and Drum is removed, and the media is naturally removed from the Drum.

Negative charges on the Drum are removed


by the light from the Separation Lamp.

Separation Corona Separation Lamp Positive charges on the media are


removed by AC discharging.

NOTE
The main purpose of Separation Lamp is to assist to separate the media from Drum. But
sometimes the Separation Lamp may become a solution for getting a better transfer result
when some specific type of media is used. If the printed image looks not clear or not enough
dark when printed with some king of unsupported type of printing media for example, it will be
valuable to try to turn ON the Separation Lamp for such media. It can be turned ON/OFF per
media type in the Service Mode and User Mode. See the following each pages.

3. 2. 9 Fusing
After Transfer / Separation Processes, the Inner Transportation Unit carries the printing media to
the Fuser Unit. The Fuser Unit mainly consists of the Fuser Roller and the Pressure Roller. The
toner is firmly fused onto the printing media by the heat and the pressure when the media passes
through between the Fuser Roller and Pressure Roller.

3. 3 Controlling the Movement of Toner
in the Developer Unit
Developer Unit is provided with 3 rollers “Developer Roller”, “Regulation Roller” and “Toner Supply
Roller”, which are provided with their own Bias respectively as the following table. The voltage of
the Developer Roller (-YV) is measured against the ground, and the voltages for other items are
the difference against the Developer Roller Bias (-YV).

Name of roller Supplied voltage


Developer Roller -Y +/-3V against the ground
Regulation Roller (Center) -100 +/-5V against the Developer Roller Bias
Regulation Roller (Sides) +365 +/-3V against the Developer Roller Bias
Toner Supply Roller -350 +/-3V against the Developer Roller Bias

Regulation Roller : Side Insulator Regulation Roller : Center


(+365V against Developer Roller Bias) (-100V against Developer Roller Bias)

Toner Supply Roller


(-350V against Developer Roller Bias)

NOTE
The insulator divides the Regulation Roller into “Centrer” and “Side”. Different voltage is
provided to them respectively.

3-15 K115sm3e1.doc
Taking advantage of the difference of potentials among these rollers, the movement of toner is
controlled in the Developer Unit as follows.

1. The Toner Supply Roller carries the toner toward the Developer Roller.

2. The voltage of the Toner Supply Roller is 350V lower than that of Developer Roller. When
the toner reaches the contact point of these rollers, it moves onto the Developer Roller. Then
the Development Roller carries the toner toward the Regulation Roller.

3. The Regulation Roller is strongly pressed to the Developer Roller by the spring, and these
2 rollers move to the opposite direction each other at the contact point. The Developer Roller
carries much toner, but the Regulation Roller limits the amount of toner that can pass
through between 2 rollers. As a result very small amount of toner can pass through between
rollers and the rest is returned back to the inside. As the voltage of Developer Roller is 100V
higher than that of Regulation Roller (Center), the toner passed through between rollers is
surely attracted to the Developer Roller. Very thin layer of toner is evenly formed on the
surface of Developer Roller as a result.

4. Much toner sticks onto the Regulation Roller when it is returned back to the inside. This
toner is scraped off by the Scraper which is contacted to the Regulation Roller.

5. The voltage of both sides of Regulation Roller is 365V higher than the Developer Roller Bias.
When the toner reaches the contact point of these rollers, it moves onto the Regulation
Roller. The side areas of the Developer Roller are not covered with the toner as a result,
which can prevent the toner drops into the machine from the side.

3. 4 Toner Collection Process
As explained in [3.2.2 Drum Cleaning] on page 3-6, the Cleaning Roller removes and collects the
remained toner on the Drum using +800V of voltage supplied to it in the print cycle. KIP9000 takes
an operation to return the collected toner to the Developer Unit in the following 3 cases. (This
process to return the toner is called “Toner Collection Process”.)

(1) When the KIP9000 is going to stop after printing out all the accumulated print jobs.
(2) When the used roll media is ended and changed with another one.
(3) When the used roll media is changed from one to another because of the change of print size.

When the trailing edge of the last sheet passes over the Separation Area, the KIP9000 performs
Toner Collection Process as follows rotating the Drum for 2 revolutions.

1. The Eraser Lamp throws light onto the Drum to remove the negative electric charges from the
Drum. The potential of Drum becomes 0V.

2. The voltage supplied to the Cleaning Roller is changed to -500V in the Toner Collection
Process. As the potential of Drum becomes relatively positive against the Cleaning Roller, the
toner moves from Cleaning Roller to Drum. This toner is transported to the Developer Roller.

3. The voltage supplied to the Developer Roller is also changed to +350V (+/-3V) in the Toner
Collection Process.
As the potential of Developer Roller becomes higher than that of Drum, toner on the Drum
moves onto the Developer Roller.
Then the toner is carried into the Developer Unit by both the Developer Roller and the Toner
Supply Roller.

3. 5 Automatic Controls

3. 5. 1 Auto Density Control


If the temperature of installation site varies while the Developer Bias is always fixed to a constant
level, the print image may become lighter or darker than expected. Especially when the
temperature falls, the print image tends to become lighter.
The Auto Density Control is able to get rid of such effect by the temperature variation and realizes
to have always expected density in any temperature condition.

Without Auto Density Control With Auto Density Control

Target density

Resulting density

(Look different from “target”) (Look same with “target”)

The Density Lock process performed in the factory (in most of cases) provides a “Target Density”
to KIP9000. When the Auto Density Control is set to ON, it automatically changes the Developer
Bias flexibly to have the same density with the Target Density in any situation.

3-21 K115sm3e2.doc
3. 5. 1. 1 Density Lock
Density Lock is a process to provide “Target Density” to KIP9000, which is performed in the factory
in most of cases. (This may have to be done in the field very rarely.) This process is very important
as the Target Density specified here will continue to be the expected density applied on all
print/copy afterward.

Density Lock is performed in the factory in the following method. (Do as the same if you will set the
Target Density again in the field.)

1. Set the Auto Density Control to OFF on the Service Mode 5-AA to get rid of any effect by the
variation of temperature during the Density Lock process.

2. Print out any solid black image (Test Pattern #2 for example), and measure its density with a
densitometer.

3. If the solid black needs to be much darker, increase the value of Developer Bias in the Service
Mode 4-19. (Or decrease the value if the solid black needs to be much lighter.)

4. When the density of solid black is successfully adjusted to “expected density” level, perform the
Density Lock immediately in the Service Mode 9-0b.

NOTE
The Developer Bias adjusted in the former procedure 3 can produce the “expected
density” only in the limited temperature situation. If time passes and the room
temperature changes, this Bias may no more be able to produce “expected density”.
Therefore the Density Lock must be performed immediately after the adjustment of
Developer Bias before the room temperature changes.

5. When Density Lock is started, the LED of Density Sensors


throw light onto the bare Drum surface, and the reflection from
the Drum is detected. If the reflection does not satisfy the
specified level, the light intensity of LED is automatically
calibrated. The Density Sensor is initialized by this process.

Density Sensor

6. After the initialization of LED, some calibration target images (solid black) are created on the
Drum with the current Developer Bias setting, and the Density Sensors detect the density of
these images.

Calibration target images

Drum Density Sensor

7. KIP9000 takes average for the densities of those calibration target images and converts it into
a hexadecimal data. This is hexadecimal data is memorized as “Target Density” in the Service
Mode 5-Ab.

3-22 K115sm3e2.doc
3. 5. 1. 2 Auto Density Control
The Auto Density Control is a process to adjust the actual density to the same level with “Target
Density” in any temperature condition by increasing or decreasing the Developer Bias flexibly.

The Auto Density Control can work when it is set to ON (ON1 or ON2) in the Service Mode 5-AA
(or User Mode E). The Auto Density Control takes Bias adjustment when;
• the Fuser is colder than 50 degrees centigrade at power on.
• the inside temperature changes more than 3 degrees since the last Auto Density Control.
• 24 hours has passed with the machine turned on since the last Auto Density Control.
• any parameter concerned with the Auto Density Control is changed.
• the Auto Density Control is newly activated or inactivated.
• the Target Density is changed.

And the Bias adjustment is performed as follows.

1. Some calibration target images (solid black) are created on the Drum, and the Density Sensor
detects the density of these images.

Calibration target images

Drum Density Sensor

2. KIP9000 takes average for the densities of those calibration target images, and converts it into
a hexadecimal data (Actual Density).

3. The above “Actual Density” is compared with the “Target Density”.

4. If the difference between “Actual Density” and “Target Density” is not within the acceptable
range, the Auto Density Control sets another Developer Bias and starts from the procedure 1
again. (Refer to the following [Reference] for the acceptable range.)

5. The adjustment will be finished if the difference of them comes to be within the acceptable
range. If not within the acceptable range, Auto Density Control will try the above procedures
1 to 4 several times.

6. If the density still can not be adjusted to within the acceptable range even after 6 time trials,
KIP9000 will show the Service Call Error E-28.

Reference
Acceptable range depends on the setting on User Mode E (or Service Mode 5-AA).

• When User Mode E (or Service Mode 5-AA) is set to “ON1”, error check is performed
with 5 times of “strict check level” then 1 time of “normal check level”.
• When User Mode E (or Service Mode 5-AA) is set to “ON2”, error check is performed
with 6 times of “strict check level”.
Error check level Acceptable range (Unit : Hex.) Densitometer value
Normal check level +/-20 +/-0.3
Strict check level +/-1 +/-0.05

3-23 K115sm3e2.doc
3. 5. 2 Auto SP Control
A proper voltage gap must be maintained between [Bias] (Developer Bias) and [SP; white]
(Surface Potential for white) for avoiding a foggy background problem.
GND
SP black

Bias

SP white

But if the Auto Density Control increases (adjusts to more negative side) the [Bias], the voltage gap
between [Bias] and [SP: white] may become so small. Especially the Auto Density Control tends to
increase the [Bias] greatly when in a cold environment as bigger voltage gap is required between
[SP: black] (Surface Potential for Black) and [Bias] to have enough density. The foggy background
problem tends to occur in such case because of small voltage gap between [Bias] and [SP: white].

In normal environment In a cold environment


(Gap between [Bias] and [SP: white] is very
small.)

If [SP: white] is adjusted to more negative side accompanying to the increment of [Bias], it is
possible to have enough voltage gap between [SP: white] and [Bias] so the foggy background can
be avoided. The Auto SP Control is thus a process to adjust the [SP: white] automatically to have
enough voltage gap against [Bias].

3-24 K115sm3e2.doc
The value of [SP: white] adjusted by the Auto SP Control relies on the “Target Surface Potential”
that is specified on the following service modes to each setting points (5 to 30oC by every 5oC
step) respectively.

Service Mode 5-A3 : Target Surface Potential at 5oC


5-A4 : Target Surface Potential at 10oC
5-A5 : Target Surface Potential at 15oC
5-A6 : Target Surface Potential at 20oC
5-A7 : Target Surface Potential at 25oC
5-A8 : Target Surface Potential at 30oC

If the current temperature condition is 15 oC and the Target Surface Potential specified to 15oC is
set to “-400V” for example, the Auto SP Control tries to adjust the [SP: white] to -400V.

Reference

(1) The Target Surface Potential can be specified only to the setting points of 5 degrees step.
Between 2 setting points are plotted with linear curve, and necessary [SP: white] is
automatically calculated.

-450V
-400V
-350V
-300V

5 10 15 20 25 30 oC

(2) Normally a higher value (more negative value) is specified to lower temperature
expecting the Auto Density Control will increase the Bias greatly for low temperature.

The Auto SP Control can work when it is set to ON in the Service Mode 5-A2 (or User Mode D).
The Auto SP Control takes potential adjustment when;
• the Fuser is colder than 50 degrees centigrade at power on.
• the inside temperature changes more than 3 degrees since the last Auto SP Control.
• 24 hours has passed since the last Auto SP Control.
• any parameter concerned with the Auto SP Control is changed.
• the Auto SP Control is newly activated or inactivated.
• the Target Surface Potential is changed.

Auto SP Control adjusts the density as follows.

1. The Surface Potential Sensor detects the surface


potential of Drum, which is given with the current
setting of “Grid Plate Current”.

Surface Potential Sensor

3-25 K115sm3e2.doc
2. On the other hand, the Auto SP Control calculates the necessary [SP: white] based on the
temperature detected by the Temperature Sensor.

3. The actual surface potential detected by Surface Potential Sensor is compared with the
calculated [SP: white].

4. If the difference between actual potential and required [SP: white] is not within the acceptable
range, the Auto SP Control sets another “Grid Plate Current” and starts from the procedure 1
again. (The acceptable range of surface potential can be specified in the service Mode 5-A9.)

5. The adjustment will be finished if the difference of them comes to be within the acceptable
range. If not within the acceptable range, Auto SP Control will try the above procedures 1 to 4
several times.

6. If the surface potential still can not be adjusted to within the acceptable range even after 6 time
trials, KIP9000 will show the Service Call Error E-26.

4. 4 Compensation of Analog Outputs by
Service Mode 4-0d
(Necessary after replacing DCP2)
This operation is needed only after replacing the DC Power Supply 2 (DCP2).

[Technical operation]

The Main Controller PCB needs to be supplied with 5Vdc from the DC Power Supply 2 (DCP2), but
in actual case there are many cases that the power from DCP2 to Main Controller PCB is lower
than 5Vdc (as “4.99Vdc” or “4.98Vdc”). In such case the Analog Outputs from the High Voltage
Power Supplies (HVP1-6) and Bias Power Supply (BIAS) are very slightly smaller than what they
are needed to be.

The Service Mode 4-0d (Compensation of Analog Outputs) compensates those Analog Outputs to
the needed levels automatically. For example if the current actual input to Main Control PCB is
“4.98V” and it is input to the Service Mode 4-0d, the KIP9000 firmware takes an internal process to
“increase” the actual input (4.98Vdc) to the needed input (5Vdc), and the Analog Outputs from
HVP (1-6) and BIAS are increased as well consequently.

The input voltage to Main Control PCB has been measured and correctly input to the Service
Mode 4-0d before shipment. If the DC Power Supply 2 (DCP2) is replaced in the field, it is required
to measure the actual input and input to the Service Mode 4-0d. (KIP9000 firmware takes
necessary compensation automatically if only the actual value of input voltage is set on 4-0d.)

[Operation]

1. Find J-201 on the Main Controller PCB, and measure the DC voltage between J201-3 (yellow)
and J201-4 (blue) with multi-meter. This is the actual input voltage to Main Controller PCB.

J-201

J201-3

J201-4

2. Enter the Service Mode, select the Adjustment Mode 0 (Sub Mode No.0), and select the Sub
Mode No.0d.
Input the actual value input voltage to Main Controller PCB.

(10) Standard / Special Setting Value Changing Modes (No.09 to 0b)

Some setting items of Adjustment Modes 0/1 are available to have dual setting values as
“Standard Setting Value” and “Special Setting Value”. (Such items are called “dual value items”)
The modes No. 09, 0A and 0b are available to change “Standard Setting Value” and “Special
Setting Value” respectively on these dual value items. Refer to [Operation] on page 8-53 for how to
change these values.

Each 09, 0A and 0b has its own target setting based on the media type.

Item No. Target setting


09 Dual value items concerned with plain paper can be adjusted.
0A Dual value items concerned with tracing paper can be adjusted.
0b Dual value items concerned with film can be adjusted.

Selectable setting values are “0” or “1”, and the descriptions are as follows.

Setting value Description


0 “Standard Setting Value” of dual value items can be changed.
1 “Special Setting Value” of dual value item can be changed.

[Description]

Normally an individual setting item of Adjustment Modes 0/1 has only 1 setting value that is called
“Standard Setting Value”.
However, some setting items are available to have one more setting value called “Special Setting
Value” in addition to “Standard Setting Value”. Such setting items are called “dual value items”.
The following list shows some examples of dual setting items. (All items are concerned with plain
paper.)

Item Setting target Standard Setting Special Setting


No. Value (Example) Value (Example)
Adjustment Mode 0 10 Fuser temperature (PPC) 170 190
(Sub Mode No.4) 1C Transfer corona current (PPC) 242 265
1F DC component for Separation Corona 319 310
(PPC)
33 Fuser Motor speed -10 -07
(Roll 1 /PPC /Large size /0 to 2m)
Adjustment Mode 1 0C Image placement 11.0 9.5
(Sub Mode No.5) (Roll 1 /PPC /Large size)
3C Length of trailing margin 11.0 10.0
(Roll 1 /PPC /Large size)
6C Length of image 0.05 -0.15
(Roll 1 /PPC /Large size)

“Standard Setting Value” is the factory default that has been specified in the factory before
shipment so as to produce the best print result in our assumed usage condition. (Field
customization for the Standard Setting Value is available of course.)

“Special Setting Value” is something like “occasionally required custom setting”. There will be a
case that normally the usage condition is within as assumed so “Standard Setting Value” is enough
for getting a satisfactory print result, but sometimes (temporarily or constantly) the usage condition
becomes NOT within as assumed so you need to set a certain setting item to some “special state”
temporarily for getting a satisfactory print result in such special usage condition. This “special
state” is what we call “Special Setting Value”. For example;
• Normally the user uses recommended paper and can get a proper print result with the
default fuser temperature (170 degrees for example), but he sometimes uses a very special
paper that requires to set the fuser temperature to some special state (190 degree) for

8-51 K115sm8e2.doc
getting a proper print result. So he needs to have 2 different fuser temperature settings for
getting satisfactory result in both cases, one for recommended paper (Standard Setting
Value) and another for special paper (Special Setting Value).

NOTE
(1) It is not recommended to change the “Standard Setting Value” as it is the best factory
setting, but it is possible to do it if necessary. Preferably backup all the Standard Setting
Value before change.

(2) Refer to each setting item list to know which items of Adjustment Mode 0/1 are “dual value
items”.
[8.1.5.4 Setting item list] on and after the page 8-39
[8.1.6.4 Setting item list] on and after the page 8-89
If “OK” is provided in [Special setting] column of the list, this item is a “dual value item”.
If “NO”, it is a “single value item”.

(3) Switch between “Standard Setting Value” and “Special Setting Value” can be done in the
User Modes 8, 9 and A.
If you set the User Mode to [Standard Print Mode], the “Standard Setting Value” of all dual
value items become active.
If you set the User Mode to [Special Print Mode], the “Special Setting Value” of all dual
value items become active.
Refer to the following pages for the detail of User Modes 8, 9 and A.

[8.2.9 User Mode 9] (Page 8-184)
[8.2.10 User Mode A] (Page 8-188)

(4) On every dual value item, its “Standard Setting Value” and “Special Setting Value” are set
to the same value when shipped from factory.

[Description]

When printed with both thick (new) and narrow (near empty) roll media respectively, the lengths of
trailing margin on both printouts will be different from each other. In general the TE margin tends to
become shorter than what it must be when printed with a narrower roll media. That is to say, more
TE margin should be provided as the thickness of roll is reduced for getting the same TE margin
always without affected by the variation of roll thickness.

Thick roll media Narrow roll media

Difference of trailing margin

In the Items No. C2 to C5 it is possible to select any best TE Margin Compensation Level. More TE
margin is added if larger level is selected. See the next page.

8-74 K115sm8e2.doc
The thickness of roll media is divided into 8 roll thickness levels as “8/8” to “1/8” (level is detected
by the Paper Feed Clock Sensor.). 8/8 is the thickest (new roll media) and 1/8 is the narrowest
(near to empty).
• More TE margin is added as the roll thickness level gets narrower.
• More TE margin is added as larger setting value is selected. (No compensation is
performed when the value is set to “0”)

Reference

When the Image Enhancement is activated on the item No. 8044, the KIP9000 categorizes
every single pixel of print data into any of 10 IE Categories depending on its “visual appeal
power”.

2 factors concern for the categorization, such as “isolate level” and “existence of nearby dot”.
• “Isolate level” stands for the isolation from other images, and shown by the “numeral”
of IE Category as A1 or A2. A larger value stands for more isolation from other images
(as single pixel). “More isolation” reduces the “visual appeal power” of the target pixel.
Therefore more image enhancement is required for more isolated pixel to print it much
darker.
• “Existence of nearby dot” is shown by the alphabet of IE Category as A1 or B1. Nearby
dot exists when “B”, and does not exist when “A”. As the existence of nearby dot
provides more “visual appeal power” to the concerning pixel, less image enhancement
is required.

The followings are the descriptions of 10 IE Categories, which are ordered from top to bottom
in terms of their visual appeal power. (Upper item has more visual appeal power.)

B5 : Isolate level 5 with nearby dot Have more visual appeal power
A5 : Isolate level 5 without nearby dot (Needs less image enhancement)
B4 : Isolate level 4 with nearby dot
A4 : Isolate level 4 without nearby dot
B3 : Isolate level 3 with nearby dot
A3 : Isolate level 3 without nearby dot
B2 : Isolate level 2 with nearby dot
A2 : Isolate level 2 without nearby dot
B1 : Isolate level 1 with nearby dot
A1 : Isolate level 1 without nearby dot Have less visual appeal power
(Needs more image enhancement)

It is possible to change the total operation time of Web Unit counted by the KIP9000 firmware.
Exch Item No. has its own setting target.

Item No. Target setting Setting range Setting unit


9E Can change “hour” of web operation time. 0 to 16 1 hour
9F Can change “minute” of web operation time. 0 to 59 1 minute
A0 Can change “second” of web operation time. 0 to 59 1 second

NOTE
(1) Recovery from “Web End” or “Web Near End” has to be done in the correct way.
a) Set all of 9E, 9F and A0 “0” (set to 0 hour 0 minute 0 second) after replacing the
web with the new one.
b) In any of No.9E to A1, press and hold the WIRE-CLEAN Key and then press the
CUT Key.
c) Turn off/on the KIP9000. “Web End” or “Web Near End” is cleared.
If the above b) and c) are not performed, Web End error will be indicated
continuously!

(2) Web operation time (No.9E to A0) and web thickness (No.A1) are linked with each other. If
either one is changed, the other one is changed also to the appropriate value
automatically.

(17) Web thickness (No.A1)

It is possible to input the actual thickness of Web. The setting range is 0.0mm to 14.0mm in 0.1mm
increment.

NOTE
The “counter” for Web End error is normally the web operation time (9E, 9F & A0). If the web
operation time is lost accidentally, web thickness is the solution to recover the counter.
Measure the actual thickness of unused side of web roll and input that value on No.A1. An
appropriate web operation time is automatically calculated from the web thickness, and it is
automatically set on each No. 9E, 9F and A0. Thus the counter can be recovered.

OFF, it may be possible to avoid machine down caused by the service call error E-26. Neither
Service Mode 5-A2 nor User Mode D has setting priority.

(19) Target Surface Potential (No.A3 to A8)

Target Surface Potential at each temperature points (5 degrees step) can be specified, which is
used when the Auto SP Control adjusts the surface potential. The setting range is from 500 to 999
in 1V increment. Increment of the setting value provides a possibility to have bigger density gap
against Developer Bias, which makes the print image lighter.

(20) Acceptable potential range for Auto SP Control (No.A9)

KIP9000 will show the service call error E-26 if the Automatic SP Control fails in adjusting the
potential to within acceptable range within decided times of trial. The acceptable range can be
specified in the No.A9. The setting value stands for “+/- X volts against the Target Surface
Potential. The setting range is from 4 to 10 volts in 1V increment. Increment of setting value
increases the possibility to avoid service call error E-26.

range is 00 to FF. Increment of the setting value makes the Target Density darker.

(23) Minimum voltage gap between SP and Bias (No.AC)

When the Auto Density Control tries to adjust the density several times, the Developer Bias may
be so much increased that the voltage gap between Surface Potential and Developer Bias may
become so small. This situation may result in very light image as enough amount of toner can not
move onto the Drum at development because of small voltage gap. To avoid such situation, it is
possible to specify a minimum voltage gap. The setting stands for “-X volts against the Surface
Potential”, and the setting range is from 0 to 250V in 1V increment.

(TE margin is provided.) (No TE margin is provided.)

The following 3 settings are selectable.

Setting Selected setting Description

kept between prints.

NOTE
When a continuous printing “without TE margin” is performed, sometimes the image on the
former print may be very weakly printed on the next print as “ghost image”.

• The Margin Print mode 1 has a special cleaning process between prints to get rid of
this ghost image. Therefore the interval between prints becomes longer than usual so
the print productivity is reduced, but a better image quality can be expected.
(Recommended setting)

• The Margin Print Mode 2 does not have the cleaning process. Therefore the print
productivity is the same as usual, but the prints may have ghost image. (Not
recommended setting)

8. 2.13 User Mode D
(Auto SP Control ON/OFF :
Temporary clearance of E-26 error)

[Function]

Auto SP Control can be set to ON or OFF. When it is set to OFF, service call errors E-26 might be
temporarily cleared for avoiding the breakdown of KIP9000.

Reference

The image quality varies according to the variation of temperature of surrounding environment.
To achieve a constant image quality in any environment, KIP9000 flexibly adjusts the
Developer Bias to the most appropriate level monitoring the variation of actual density with the
Density Sensor. And accompanying to the variation of Developer Bias, the surface potential of
Drum is also adjusted flexibly to have a proper voltage gap against Developer Bias. This
control for the surface potential is called Auto SP Control. If the Auto SP Control can not work
correctly for some reason, a service call error E-26 is indicated and no more print becomes
available.

As the user can not clear this error, KIP9000 will continue to be in breakdown until the error is
cleared by the service personnel. But if the error can be temporarily cleared in the User Mode
E by easing the error check level, KIP9000 will be relieved from breakdown and you will be
able to continue printing.

When you will clear the error by the User Mode E, note that;
• Image quality may not be satisfactory as the real time adjustment does not work.
• There may be some case that the error can not be cleared even if you ease the error
check level.
• The User Mode E does not remove the real cause of error. Therefore the service
personnel need to go customer site immediately for removing the real cause of error.
