CAPITULO I

Introducción.

La gente ha venido haciendo copias de su información desde principios de la historia.


Las sociedades antiguas grababan símbolos en tablillas de arcilla. Era un proceso
lento y costoso. Luego vino el estilo, el papiro y diferentes tipos de tintes los cuales
fueron utilizados para hacer rollos de pergamino de una manera trabajosa. Los
escribas pasaban sus vidas enteras copiando a mano los pergaminos para reyes,
duques, y otros jefes de estado. En el siglo quince, la idea de caracteres móviles
colocó a la prensa de impresión de Gutenberg en los anales de la historia, dejando a
muchos escribas sin trabajo. Ese avance tecnológico redujo el tiempo de copiado de
un volumen estándar de la Biblia de unos cuantos años a unos cuantos meses. Y
después de esto, solo tomó quinientos años más para que las maquinas de
mimeógrafo aparecieran en colegios públicos en varios países. A partir de ese
momento los avances tecnológicos se produjeron de manera acelerada. En 1954
Eastman Kodak™ presento Verifax™, un sistema de transferencia de tinta que
combino la fotografía y la impresión para duplicar un documento original. La
tomografía fue presentada por 3M™ en 1956. Al eliminar la necesidad de un negativo
principal, el proceso de transferencia de calor modernizo el proceso de copiado. Se
podía efectuar una copia en cuatro a seis segundos, y las copias eran más baratas.
Pero esto aun requería de un tipo de papel especial y tenía otras limitaciones. En
1960, el mundo de la tecnología de copiadoras tomó un paso gigante con la aparición
del proceso de copiado electrostático indirecto. Este proceso, propiedad de
Xerox™, gano para sí el nombre de “Xerografía” que en Griego quiere decir “escritura
seca”. El proceso electrostático permite hacer copias en papel común en lugar de
utilizar un papel tratado químicamente. Era rápido y automático. Copiaba originales de
nueve por catorce pulgadas. Claramente, la tecnología de copiadoras de la edad
moderna había empezado.

El desarrollo de los equipos de impresión B/N o a Color ha evolucionado a tal punto


que éstos se hacen indispensables en instituciones administrativas, gubernamentales,
educativas y demás. La demanda de estos equipos de impresión van relacionadas
con su rendimiento: alta velocidad, resolución, interconectividad con computadoras,
configuración de accesorios (grapadora, guillotina, perforadora, compaginadora, etc.)
que cumplan las exigencias del cliente.

El proceso de impresión y/o copiado con estos equipos parece muy sencillo. Sin
embargo, desde que la hoja ingresa por la maquina hasta la impresión de la
información conlleva una serie de pasos electrónicos, eléctricos e informáticos. Lo
cual debe realizarse en pocos segundos.

En Bolivia el uso creciente de la tecnología de impresión en las actividades


económicas se reflejan en el ámbito comercial. Como también en las entidades
gubernamentales, lo que supone una gran demanda de servicio técnico calificado
capaz de resolver diversas situaciones. Desde el simple manejo hasta las fallas
electrónicas e informáticas más complejas.
1.1. Descripción breve de las actividades de la empresa.

El Grupo Moreira Representaciones inicio sus actividades en Bolivia el año 1992, a la


cabeza del Lic. Luis Moreira Encinas. Actualmente se encarga de distribuir equipos de
impresión digital de las marcas Ricoh y Konica Minolta. Esto incluye el soporte técnico
en toda Bolivia para dichas marcas.

El soporte técnico incluye el mantenimiento preventivo, correctivo, capacitación e


instalación de los equipos mencionados.

iii. Misión

Mantenerse en constante esfuerzo para poner a disposición del público los equipos
más modernos en el mercado. Por lo que se cuenta con un amplio stock de máquinas
conformadas por más de 400 equipos para entrega inmediata y brindar a los clientes
soluciones digitales. Se cuenta también con un amplio stock de repuestos e insumos
para brindar a los clientes el soporte técnico de tecnologías de impresión digital.

iv. Visión

TRABAJOS REALIZADOS Y PROCESO DE COPIADO

2.1. Informe detallado del trabajo desarrollado.

En el Departamento Técnico se realizaron los siguientes trabajos:

Lo primero que se hizo fue reconocer cada área de trabajo. Y de esta manera
observar sus características y modo de trabajo. Así como también de los equipos
electrónicos e informáticos que son usados en dichas áreas.

Se realizaron los siguientes trabajos:

 Mantenimiento de las copiadoras Minolta 2010, 1015, Minolta EP 4000,


EP5000. Éstas se encontraban con fallas en las unidades de revelado e
imagen que repercutían en la calidad de las copias y el correcto funcionamiento
del equipo.

 Mantenimiento y configuración de las computadoras de las oficinas de


recepción y del departamento técnico. Se formatearon los discos duros
cuidando de no borrar la información que requerían. Además, se instalaron los
sistemas operativos Windows XP SP3 y MAC OS 10.4 y todo el software que
se necesita para el servicio técnico.

 Ensamblaje, instalación y configuración de tres computadoras personales para


las oficinas de Cochabamba, Santa Cruz y Tarija.

 Desbloqueo y cargado de tóner de los cartuchos de impresión para la


copiadora multifunción RICOH FX200.
 Distribución de copiadoras multifunción Konica Minolta modelo Bizhub 184 al
Ministerio de Salud. En el momento de la instalación se recargo el “starter” a la
unidad de revelado y se utilizo la opción F5 en modo “Technical Service” para
la distribución del tóner y “starter” por los rodillos magnéticos. Esta operación
se realiza solamente si la copiadora que se entrega es nueva. También se
configuraron el tamaño de papel de las bandejas de alimentación (Letter, FLS y
A4).

 Apoyo en la instalación de maquinas en la sala de convenciones del Hotel
Radisson con el fin de demostrar toda la capacidad de las copiadoras-
imprentas Konica Minolta Bizhub PRO 950 y la de Color bizhub PRO
C6501e/eP. Estos modelos tuvieron especial interés por sus características de
funcionalidad y velocidad (95 copias por minuto). La convertían en la estrella de
la convención. Se instalaron en red y configuraron para la demostración junto a
sus unidades de grapado, guillotina, encuadernado, doblado y compaginado.
Posteriormente ambas maquinas fueron vendidas y se instalaron en la ciudad
de Oruro. Al momento de presentar este trabajo ya se solicitaron 8 de estas
maquinas por parte del Ministerio de Educación en nuestro país.

 Servicio técnico para la copiadora Konica Minolta Di 250


La lámpara de la unidad de fusión de no enciende.
Para comprobar el funcionamiento de la lámpara se debe revisar un SSR. Este
componente electrónico se encuentra entre la tarjeta principal y la lámpara.

Primero. Con la maquina encendida. Colocamos las clavijas del multimetro en


los puntos 3 y 4 del SSR. Si obtenemos 0 voltios entonces el circuito está
cerrado y el SSR está en buen estado.

Segundo. Si obtenemos una lectura de 220V entonces el circuito está abierto y


se notara que el SSR no conduce.

Tercero. Colocamos las clavijas en los puntos 1 y 2 del SSR. De esta manera
se sabrá si la tarjeta está enviando voltaje al SSR. Y si lo está haciendo se
concluye que el SSR está abierto y se encuentra en mal estado.

.
Figura 2. Circuito interno de un SSR simplificado.

Cuando no hay voltaje de la tarjeta principal, el LED del SSR está apagado. Por
lo tanto el fototriac no está expuesto a la luz y no conduce electricidad. De tal
manera, el circuito de energía de la lámpara permanece abierto y la lámpara
continúa apagada.

Como los SSRs no tienen partes móviles o mecánicas, son más confiables que
los relays. Así se protege el circuito DC de la tarjeta principal del circuito AC de
la lámpara. La única interacción entre los lados DC y AC es la luz del LED.

 Servicio técnico a la copiadora Konica Minolta Bizhub Di350.

La copiadora no enciende. Debe comprobarse el voltaje de la fuente:

Colocamos la terminal roja del multimetro en la clavija 1 y la terminal negra en


la clavija 2. Si se obtiene 5 voltios, el problema puede estar en la tarjeta lógica
posterior a la fuente. Si no se obtiene los 5 voltios se debe hacer la
comprobación en las clavijas 6 y 7. Si leemos 10.5 voltios AC, el problema
puede estar en el suministro de energía. Hay que revisar fusibles. Si no
obtenemos 10.5 voltios AC, entonces es necesario regresar al tomacorrientes
AC. Si hay energía en el tomacorrientes, entonces la falla podría estar en el
transformador o interruptor mecánico.
Figura 3. Tarjeta de suministro de energía de una copiadora,

 Servicio técnico para la copiadora Ricoh Aficio 2010.

El panel de control se enciende pero la copiadora no funciona.

La energía llega a la maquina, pero la copiadora no funciona. Se sospecha que


es la fuente de energía.

Primero. Desconectar el conector de salida de energía y luego comprobar

empresa.

2.2. Las ocho fases del proceso de copiado electroestático.

Todas las fases del proceso de copiado, excepto la fusión, actúan sobre el Cilindro
Fotoconductivo. Al que en el futuro llamaremos solamente “cilindro”. Este recibe la
imagen en su superficie sensible a la luz y luego transfiere la imagen a la superficie
del papel de copiado. De manera general el proceso de copiado se desarrolla en las
siguientes etapas:

i) Carga principal (Cargador Principal).


En la preparación de la imagen latente, el Cargador Principal genera un voltaje
negativo alto el cual coloca una carga negativa uniforme a lo largo de la superficie del
Cilindro. La carga permanece en el cilindro debido a que la superficie tiene una alta
resistencia a la oscuridad.

j) Exposición de la información (Unidad Óptica).


El sistema óptico (lámparas, espejos, lentes, etc.) refleja el documento original a la
superficie del cilindro cargado negativamente. La carga negativa en el cilindro se
disipa en proporción directa a la intensidad de la luz reflejada. La luz de alta
intensidad reflejada de los espacios en blanco transforma a la superficie del cilindro
en un conductor y la carga negativa disminuye. La luz de baja intensidad reflejada de
la impresión y de los gráficos originales permite que el cilindro retenga su propiedad
aislante y la carga negativa permanece por más tiempo o de manera más uniforme. El
resultado es una imagen latente cargada negativamente en el cilindro.
k) Revelado (Unidad Reveladora).
La imagen cargada negativamente atrae a las partículas de tóner cargadas
positivamente y forma una imagen de tóner visible en la superficie del cilindro.

l) Transferencia.
El papel es alimentado a la superficie del cilindro. El Cargador de Transferencia
coloca una carga negativa más alta en el papel que la existente en la superficie del
cilindro. La imagen revelada cargada positivamente de esta manera es removida del
cilindro y colocada en el papel. El papel es también atraído hacia el cilindro y necesita
ser separado.

m) Separación (Cargador de Separación).


El cargador de separación aplica un potencial AC fuerte al reverso del papel. La
atracción entre el papel y el cilindro disminuye y el papel se separa del cilindro.

n) Fusión (Unidad de Fusión).


La imagen de tóner en el papel pasa entre dos rodillos. Se aplica calor y presión para
fijar la imagen al papel.

o) Limpieza (Unidad de Limpieza).


Una hoja de plástico “raspa” la superficie del cilindro para recobrar el exceso de tóner.
p) Descarga (Lámpara de Descarga).
La luz de la lámpara de descarga hace que la superficie del cilindro sea conductora
nuevamente. Todas las cargas son disipadas a tierra y el cilindro queda listo para un
nuevo ciclo de copiado.
2.3. El proceso de copiado del documento original al papel.

Se utilizan distintos materiales para hacer distintos tipos de cilindros. Los Cilindros
Fotoconductores Orgánicos (PC) y de Selenio son los más comunes.

Figura 4. Capas del cilindro de selenio.

El cilindro contiene capas de materiales semiconductivos colocados sobre una


aleación de aluminio. Sobre la cual una imagen electrostática latente es formada.

En la oscuridad la capa fotosensitiva tiene una alta resistencia eléctrica la cual la


convierte en aislante. Cuando se expone a la luz, la resistencia se reduce y el material
se convierte en un conductor. Estas dos propiedades son cruciales para la ejecución
del proceso de copiado.

Un fotoconductor es definido como un material sensible a la luz que actúa como un


conductor cuando es expuesto a la luz, y como aislante en la oscuridad. El
Fotoconductor Orgánico cumple con esta definición.

El cilindro consiste de una capa fotoconductiva en el exterior y una base de aluminio


en el interior. Cambios en la intensidad de la luz que llega al cilindro ocasionan
cambios en la resistencia eléctrica de la superficie del cilindro. Cuando es expuesta a
la luz, la resistencia eléctrica disminuye y el cilindro se convierte en conductor.
Mientras mayor es la intensidad de la luz, menor es la resistencia y la superficie se
convierte en mejor conductor. En la oscuridad, la conductividad no cambia. A medida
que la luz cambia la conductividad y las características aislantes del cilindro, los
electrones pueden moverse más o menos libremente entre el material fotosensitivo en
la superficie y la base de aluminio, cambiando de esta manera el potencial de carga
en la superficie.
Al aplicar una carga negativa uniforme a la superficie del cilindro, y luego al exponer el
cilindro a la luz reflejada del documento original, ocurre un cambio en la carga de la
superficie el cual corresponde a los detalles del documento original. La intensidad de
la luz reflejada de las partes en blanco del documento hace que la superficie del
cilindro se torne más conductiva en esas áreas y que la carga negativa se disipe. Las
áreas de baja intensidad de texto, gráficos, fotos, etc., hacen que la superficie del
cilindro actúe como aislante y que la carga negativa general en esas áreas se
mantenga. Las porciones oscuras de la imagen de documento son recreadas como
una carga negativa en el cilindro.

Este cambio en el potencial de la carga sobre la superficie del cilindro es lo que


permite al sistema crear un duplicado del documento original, cargado negativamente
(invisible), en la superficie del cilindro. La imagen invisible es llamada “imagen
latente”. Cuando las partículas del tóner con una carga opuesta (positiva) son atraídas
a la imagen negativa latente, se convierte en un duplicado visible del documento
original que puede ser transferido al papel. Ver anexo E.

2.4. Etapa de exposición.

El proceso de exposición permite que la maquina ilumine el documento original y


transporte la luz reflejada al cilindro donde se convierte en una imagen latente. Este
proceso prepara al cilindro para recibir las partículas de tóner las cuales formaran una
imagen visible. Sus componentes principales son:

- Vidrio de exposición
- Lámpara de exposición
- Espejos
- Lentes

El documento original es colocado en el vidrio de exposición. El documento es


colocado sobre el vidrio. Una lámpara expone la superficie del documento original
(ambas: imágenes y áreas sin imágenes) a la luz. La luz es reflejada de las áreas sin
imágenes. Muy poca luz es reflejada de las imágenes oscuras, tales como: texto,
gráficos e ilustraciones. Por el contrario, las áreas más oscuras absorben la luz, los
espejos dirigen la luz reflejada a los lentes. Los lentes reúnen y enfocan la luz hacia el
cilindro.

Figura 5. Proceso de exposición de la imagen.

La luz de alta intensidad de las áreas en blanco llega al cilindro. La resistencia


eléctrica en esa área disminuye y se convierte conductiva. La carga negativa se disipa
en ese lugar. Las áreas del cilindro no expuestas a la luz (que corresponde a las
áreas oscuras del documento original) permanecen aislantes y mantienen las cargas
negativas en los niveles altos originales.

Una réplica exacta del original cargada negativamente es creada en el cilindro. Es


invisible, por lo tanto es llamada latente. Ver anexo F.
Figura 6. Proceso de copiado desde otro ángulo.

2.5. Los espejos en la etapa de escaneo.

Generalmente los espejos están revestidos en la superficie posterior del vidrio. Sin
embargo, los espejos utilizados en las copiadoras, son diferentes. Estos son espejos
revestidos en la superficie frontal, lo que significa que la superficie reflectora es la
superficie frontal. No hay profundidad. Este tipo de espejo previene que la luz sea
reflejada del lado posterior y del frontal, lo que crearía imágenes dobles.

Figura 7. Espejos con revestimiento.

2.5.1. Servicio técnico para la etapa óptica y el proceso de exposición.


Cualquier contaminación (polvo, humedad, película, etc.) o de formación
(resquebrajaduras) del sistema óptico obstruirá la luz reflejada y reducirá la calidad de
la copia. Lo siguiente, son problemas de calidad de copiado asociados con problemas
de óptica y exposición.

Limpiar las superficies reflectoras, polvo y filtros en los intervalos especificados por el
Manual de Mantenimiento para el modelo especificado. Cambiar las lámparas cuando
sea necesario. Mantener limpio el vidrio de exposición.

2.6. Unidad de revelado de imagen.


Durante la fase de revelado, la imagen latente negativa en el cilindro atrae a las
partículas de tóner cargadas positivamente de la unidad reveladora y forma una
imagen visible de los documentos originales. Ver anexo G.

Sus componentes principales son:

o Revelador (tóner y portador)


o La Unidad Reveladora (incluyendo la envoltura y el rodillo magnético)

El material revelador consiste del tóner y del portador. El tóner esta hecho de carbón
(para pigmentación) y de plástico con resina. El portador es una partícula en forma de
granulo hecha de ferrita (hierro). El tóner y las partículas del portador son agitadas por
sondas (una canilla en forma de tornillo dentro de la unidad reveladora). La agitación
genera fricción entre el portador y el tóner lo cual crea una carga estática conocida
como “Carga Triboelectrica”. Esto hace que el tóner tome una carga positiva y la
portadora una carga negativa. Por lo tanto, el tóner es atraído al portador.

Tóner + Portador = Revelador

Carbón/plástico/resina ferrita

Figura 8. Componentes del Revelador.

“La triboelectricidad hace que el tóner tome una carga positiva (+) y el portador tome
una negativa (-) El tóner es atraído al portador.”

Bajo condiciones normales, cuando hay un porcentaje adecuado de portador en la


mezcla de tóner (la cual varia de maquina en maquina), la carga opuesta hace que las
partículas de tóner se adhieran de manera uniforme a las partículas del portador.
Si se acumula demasiado tóner junto a la portadora, la conexión es demasiado suelta
y el tóner es fácilmente atraído a la superficie del cilindro. En este caso, demasiado
tóner podría terminar en el cilindro generando un trasfondo. Si hay muy pocas
partículas de tóner en la portadora, entonces no llegara suficiente tóner al cilindro. El
resultado será una copia demasiado clara, con baja densidad de imagen. La escasez
de tóner en la portadora también podrá causar desgaste prematuro de portadora, que
es un insumo, debido al contacto excesivo entre ellas. Por lo que se hace necesario
cambiar el revelador en los intervalos adecuados.

2.6.1. El rodillo magnético.

Una “Escobilla Magnética” rota o “cepilla” al tóner cargado positivamente desde la


unidad del revelador hacia la imagen cargada negativamente en el cilindro. Así es
como funciona:

CILINDRO

Escobilla
Base de Magnética
Aluminio

Capa
Fotosensitiva

Figura 9. La escobilla magnética.


Figura 10. La escobilla magnética llevando tóner.

Varios magnetos están contenidos dentro de la manga del rodillo magnético. La


manga gira alrededor de los magnetos. Los campos magnéticos son creados y hacen
que las cuentas portadoras (con el tóner unido) sean atraídas a los polos opuestos
dentro del rodillo. Mientras la manga continua girando, el revelador se mueve a lo
largo de los magnetos adyacentes. Esto hace que se produzca un nuevo suministro
de revelador en el punto de contacto entre el rodillo y el cilindro.

Figura 11. Formación de líneas de la fuerza magnética.


El rodillo magnético rota en dirección opuesta al Cilindro PC, pero en el punto de
contacto, la superficie se mueve en la misma dirección. La cantidad de carga en la
superficie del cilindro y la concentración de tóner en el revelador determinan cuánto
tóner es transferido a la superficie del cilindro.

Cuando la carga negativa de la capa foto sensitiva del cilindro es inferior a la carga
negativa del portador, el tóner permanece unido al portador. Cuando la carga negativa
de la imagen latente de la imagen del cilindro es superior a la carga negativa del
portador, el tóner es atraído a la porción de la imagen latente. En áreas solidas de
color negro la carga en la superficie del cilindro es alta. En áreas de tonos medios o
de color, el potencial de la superficie es menor. Y en las áreas en blanco podrá existir
un pequeño voltaje negativo residual.

Para prevenir que el tóner se adhiera a las áreas en blanco, un pequeño voltaje
(generalmente alrededor de 200v) es aplicado a la manga del rodillo. Esta polaridad
del revelador previene que el tóner cruce a las áreas donde no hay imágenes. De esta
manera, el tóner crea una réplica visible del documento original con todas las
graduaciones de negro, tonos medios y blancos.

2.6.2. Servicio técnico de la Unidad Reveladora.
Es importante efectuar el mantenimiento preventivo de la Unidad Reveladora ya que
las consecuencias de no hacerlo pueden ser graves. Es muy difícil limpiar la maquina
después de un derrame de revelador. Esto generalmente debe hacerse en el taller y
es causado por un mantenimiento inadecuado.

Reemplazar el material del revelador y otras partes de los intervalos recomendados.
Cuando se reemplace el revelador, revisar el desgaste en los bujes, rodajes y el
mylar. Estos se deben reemplazar si están gastados. Aspirar el material revelador del
interior de la maquina, sobre todo alrededor de los engranajes donde causaría gran
desgaste. El sensor de tóner (ATS) debe ser aspirado con mucho cuidado porque la
estática podría dañarlo.
2.7. Proceso de transferencia de imagen al papel.

Durante el proceso de transferencia, la imagen del tóner (imagen visible) que ha sido
revelada en la superficie del cilindro es transferida al papel. Sus componentes
principales son:

o Cilindro e imagen revelada.


o Cargador de trasferencia e hilo de corona.
o Papel.

A medida que el sistema de rodillos y sensores transporta el papel entre la imagen


revelada en el cilindro y el Cargador de Transferencia, una carga negativa similar a la
creada por el Cargador Principal es generada por el Cargador de Transferencia. Una
carga negativa fuerte es dirigida hacia la base del papel de copiado. La carga
negativa del Cargador de Transferencia es más fuerte que la carga negativa que
sostiene la imagen del tóner en el cilindro. El tóner cargado positivamente, es atraído
hacia el papel. Durante este proceso, la mayor parte del tóner del cilindro es
transferido hacia el papel. Con la imagen ahora en el papel, el tóner residual en el
cilindro será removido posteriormente. Ver anexo H.

Figura 13.Proceso magnético entre el tóner y el papel

“La carga negativa del Cargador de Transferencia es más fuerte que la carga negativa
que sostiene la imagen de tóner en el cilindro. El tóner cargado positivamente es
atraído hacia el papel de copiado.”
El mantenimiento adecuado del Cargador de Transferencia es similar a lo requerido
para el Cargador Principal.

La carga negativa del cargador de transferencia atrae a la mayor parte de la imagen


del cilindro y lo coloca en el papel.
Durante el proceso de transferencia el papel de copiado es atraído hacia el cilindro.

2.8. Etapa de separación entre el cilindro y papel.

Durante el proceso de separación, el papel que acaba de recibir la imagen de tóner es


separado del cilindro. Sus componentes principales son:

- Cilindro
- Papel con la imagen de tóner
- Cargador de separación (hilo de corona)

Durante el proceso de transferencia anterior, el papel fue atraído al cilindro por la


fuerza electroestática creada por la polaridad opuesta del tóner y la carga de
transferencia. Para neutralizar la atracción y ayudar a separar el papel, una corona
AC de alta frecuencia es generada dentro de la envoltura del cargador de separación.
La polaridad negativa del papel disminuye y la estática entre el papel y el cilindro se
debilita. Por lo tanto el papel se puede separar del cilindro por su propio peso y
rigidez.
Figura 14. Proceso de separación del papel.

“La corona AC reduce la polaridad negativa del papel, y la estática entre el papel y el
cilindro se debilita. Por lo tanto el papel se puede separar del cilindro por su propio
peso y rigidez.”

2.8.1. Servicio a la unidad de separación de papel.

cargador principal

2.8.2. Mantenimiento preventivo de la etapa de separación de papel.

Reemplazar el hilo de corona en los intervalos indicados. Limpiar la envoltura como se


indica en el manual de servicio del modelo de copiadora en servicio.

- Durante el proceso de separación el papel de copiado que recibió la


imagen de tóner es separado del cilindro.
- Una corona AC de alta frecuencia disminuye la polaridad negativa del papel
y debilita la atracción estática.

2.9. Etapa de fusión del tóner con el papel.

Durante el proceso de fusión, se utiliza calor y presión para unir permanentemente la


imagen a las fibras de papel. Sus componentes principales son:

- Papel con imagen de tóner.


- Rodillo de Calor (Teflón).
- Lámpara de fusión.
- Rodillo de presión.

Antes que la fusión ocurra, el tóner es sostenido en el papel por el potencial negativo
del papel y por la carga positiva del tóner. El tóner sin embargo, puede ser removido
fácilmente.

El fusor consiste de un rodillo superior e inferior entre los cuales pasa el papel. Ver
anexo I.
Figura 15. Proceso de fusion del toner sobre el papel.

El rodillo superior esta hecho generalmente de aluminio con una superficie de teflón y
contiene una lámpara de halógeno que mantiene la temperatura a aprox. 200ºC
durante el proceso de fusión. El rodillo inferior está cargado de resortes y presiona
contra el rodillo superior para crear presión.

El punto de fusión del tóner (recordando la resina que el tóner contiene) es


aproximadamente de entre 100 a 110ºC. Cuando el papel pasa entre los rodillos, el
calor del rodillo superior funde el tóner y la presión entre los rodillos fija el tóner en las
fibras del papel.

Ya que los rodillos están hechos de materiales muy suaves con muy poca tensión en
la superficie, generalmente una pequeña cantidad de tóner residual se pegará a los
rodillos. Para prevenir que el tóner se deposite en la siguiente copia (lo que causaría
una imagen desalineada), una sonda u hoja de limpieza toca los rodillos y retira
cualquier exceso de tóner.
2.9.1. Servicio técnico a la unidad de fusión.

El mantenimiento adecuado de la unidad de fusión evitara que se produzcan marcas


en las copias, pliegues en el papel, ruidos y problemas de alimentación.

Tabla 8. Fallas comunes en la unidad de fusión.

2.9.2. Mantenimiento preventivo de la unidad de fusión.

Reemplazar las partes apropiadas según la tabla arriba indicada. Limpiar el tóner de
las guías de papel. Limpiar y lubricar los lugares que más trabajan, y reemplazar los
rodajes desgastados.

2.9.3. Limpieza del cilindro.

Durante el proceso de limpieza, el tóner residual es retirado de la superficie del


cilindro en preparación para el siguiente ciclo de copiado. Sus componentes son:

o Cilindro y tóner residual.


o Hoja de limpieza.
o Hoja de recuperación.
Figura 16. Proceso de limpieza y realimentación.

Parte del tóner aplicado al cilindro durante el proceso de revelado permanece como
residuo incluso después que la imagen ha sido transferida al papel. Ese residuo debe
ser limpiado y capturado. Se utilizan dos hojas para efectuar esa función. La hoja de
limpieza toca la superficie del cilindro para retirar el tóner. El tóner es atrapado por la
hoja de recuperación y es depositado en un recipiente de reciclado. La sonda de
recuperación mueve el tóner a un recipiente de desperdicio de tóner donde
permanece hasta que es descartado.

2.9.4. Servicio técnico de la unidad de limpieza.

Generalmente, la unidad de limpieza no falla completamente. El mal funcionamiento o


la falta de mantenimiento pueden causar líneas, trasfondo, hacer que el cilindro se
trabe, reducir la vida del cilindro, y caída de tóner.

Tabla 9. Fallas comunes en la unidad de limpieza.

2.9.5. Mantenimiento preventivo de la unidad de limpieza.

El mantenimiento adecuado incluye la limpieza y el reemplazo de las partes en los


intervalos indicados. Ya que el polvo del papel puede causar la falla de la hoja de
limpieza, es necesario efectuar la limpieza de toda la máquina para prolongar la vida
de la hoja. Se debe reemplazar la hoja de limpieza cuando también se reemplace el
cilindro para asegurarse que ambos componentes tengan un desgaste similar. Evitar
tocar la hoja de limpieza con los dedos. El aceite de sus manos podría dañar la hoja o
la superficie del cilindro.

2.10. Proceso de descarga del cilindro.

Durante el proceso de descarga, cualquier carga de la imagen latente que permanece


en el cilindro es eliminado por la luz de la lámpara. Sus componentes son:

o Cilindro con carga residual.


o Lámpara de Descarga.

Una lámpara expone al cilindro a la luz. La resistencia eléctrica de la superficie del


cilindro cae. El cilindro se torna conductivo y todas las cargas remanentes se disipan
a tierra.
Figura 17. Lámpara de descarga.
“La luz hace que el cilindro sea conductivo y todas las cargas en el cilindro son
disipadas a tierra en preparación para el siguiente ciclo de copiado.”

El proceso de descarga prepara al cilindro para recibir la carga principal. La cual


marca el principio del siguiente ciclo de copiado. Si el proceso de descarga no fuera
efectuado, la carga residual se acumularía y la carga principal del siguiente ciclo seria
dispareja. En ese caso, la imagen previa sería superpuesta en la imagen del siguiente
ciclo.

2.10.1. Servicio técnico de la lámpara de descarga.

Tabla 10. Fallas comunes en la lámpara de descarga.


2.10.2. Mantenimiento preventivo de la etapa de descarga.

El mantenimiento de la lámpara de descarga consiste únicamente de la limpieza de


los empalmes y el cristal.

2.11. El proceso de copiado con cilindros de selenio.

Los cilindros de selenio responden un poco más rápido a la luz y por lo tanto son
utilizados en las unidades más rápidas y de mayor volumen.

En teoría, los procesos de copiado de selenio y fotoorgánicos son muy similares.


Cada uno hace uso de un cilindro fotosensitivo. Ambos emplean las mismas ocho
fases: carga principal, exposición, transferencia, separación, revelado, fusión, limpieza
y descarga.

Figura 18. Proceso de copiado con un cilindro selenio.

La principal diferencia entre el proceso de copiado de selenio y el fotoorgánico es el


potencial de carga. Como se ha notado, el proceso de copiado fotoorgánico empieza
con la aplicación de una carga negativa uniforme en el cilindro. Sin embargo el
sistema de selenio, aplica una carga positiva al cilindro y por lo tanto todos los
potenciales de las cargas en cada fase del proceso son opuestos a las utilidades en el
proceso fotoorgánico. Por ejemplo, la polaridad y la carga de transferencia también
son positivas. Además, los materiales utilizados por el tóner y el revelador son
diferentes para que el tóner pueda recoger una carga triboelectrica negativa durante
el proceso de revelado.

Figura 19. Cambios en la carga eléctrica en la superficie del cilindro.

“Este diagrama muestra los cambios en la carga eléctrica de la superficie del cilindro
en relación a la luz reflejada del original con tres tipos distintos de propiedades
reflectoras de luz. Como se puede ver, el área negra de la imagen deja la superficie
relativamente intacta. Mientras más alta sea la intensidad de la luz reflejada, más
conductivo se volverá el cilindro y la carga negativa se disipará más.”

o El cilindro es sensible tanto a la temperatura como a la luz.
o Almacenar el cilindro en un lugar fresco y seco.

un choque de luz, el cual podría recuperarse si es colocado en la
oscuridad.

Tabla 11. Causas comunes del daño al cilindro.

2.12. Proceso de la carga principal en el hilo de corona.

El proceso de copiado empieza cuando el cargador principal crea una carga negativa
en el hilo de la corona. La corona genera una carga negativa uniforme a lo largo de la
superficie externa del cilindro. Esto prepara a la capa fotoconductiva para el proceso
de exposición. Sus componentes son:

o Transformador de alto voltaje (HVT).


o Hilo de corona y rejilla.
o Cilindro.

El transformador de alto voltaje genera un alto voltaje negativo al hilo de carga y a la


rejilla. Una fuerte carga negativa dentro de la envoltura del cargador principal es
creada y –a través de la rejilla- distribuida de manera pareja a lo largo del cilindro.

La fuerte carga negativa en la superficie es balanceada por las cargas positivas que
son formadas en el núcleo de aluminio bajo la capa fotosensistiva. Ya que la carga
principal ocurre en la oscuridad, el cilindro mantiene una resistencia alta la cual
previene que cualquier tipo de conductividad neutralice los iones. Como resultado,
una carga negativa uniforme es establecida mantenida a lo largo de toda la superficie
del cilindro. El propósito final de la carga principal es preparar a la capa
fotoconductiva para el proceso de exposición que viene a continuación. Ver anexo J

2.12.2. Mantenimiento preventivo de la etapa de carga.
Reemplazar los hilos y rejilla, y limpiar la envoltura en los intervalos especificados.
Cambiar el hilo de corona tomando en cuenta la tensión física que tenía
anteriormente.

2.13. Fotointerruptores y fotoreflectores

Estos dispositivos se utilizan para generar señales de sincronización así como para
detectar problemas de alimentación y problemas en otros puntos del trayecto del
papel. El fotointerruptor consiste de un LED y un fototransistor con un espacio entre
ellos. Los transistores conducen electricidad cuando una carga pequeña DC es
aplicada a la base y puede ser utilizado como un dispositivo de interrupción. Un
fototransistor trabaja de manera similar, pero se vuelve conductivo en respuesta a la
luz en lugar de una corriente eléctrica. Cuando el espacio entre el LED y el
fototransistor esta vacio, el LED destella luz en el fototransistor, lo que hace que el
transistor conduzca corriente y cierre el circuito del interruptor. Pero, cuando una hoja
u otro activador se mueve entre el LED y el fototransistor, la luz del LED es boqueada
y el fototransistor se apaga. El sistema funciona como un interruptor o sensor. Ver
anexo K

Un fotoreflector es similar, pero en lugar de dirigir la luz a trabes de una abertura al


fototransistor, el LED dirige la luz a una hoja de papel u otro material reflectivo. La luz
se refleja del papel y va hacia el fototransistor al cual activa.

Figura 21. Sensores de detección de fallas.


2.14. Otros componentes electromecánicos también importantes.

Existen componentes en la copiadora que son mecánicos y electromecánicos. Estas


piezas, como las electrónicas, son muy importantes para el funcionamiento de las
maquinas.

2.14.1. El solenoide.

El solenoide es un dispositivo electromagnético que consiste de un pistón móvil y un


núcleo de hierro, el cual está envuelto con un cable conductivo para formar una
bobina. Al estar unido a un solenoide, las distintas partes tales como los rodillos de
captura, de separación y otros mecanismos pueden moverse dentro y fuera de
posición. Cuando se aplica corriente al cable, este magnetiza el núcleo de hierro y
este hace que el pistón sea atraído hacia la bobina. Dependiendo del diseño del
pistón, este podría caer fuera del cilindro debido a su propio peso, o podrá ser jalado
hacia afuera por un resorte cuando la fuerza magnética es liberada.

o El área alrededor del solenoide deberá mantenerse siempre limpia,


especialmente cerca a los puntos de giro.

2.14.2. El embrague electromagnético llamado “Clutch”

El embrague electromagnético utiliza una fuerza magnética para enganchar y


desenganchar los platos rotatorios que generalmente están unidos a alguna clase de
eje. Cuando el plato de transmisión y el de accionamiento desenganchan, el
mecanismo se detiene. Cuando engancha, el mecanismo continúa. Ver anexo L.
Figura 22. Embrague electromagnético “clutch”.

La figura anterior es el de un embrague electromagnético. El sistema está diseñado


para girar y detener la rotación del rodillo. Cuando la corriente fluye a través de la
bobina dentro del embrague, el magnetismo atrae al plato accionador hacia el plato
accionado y la alta fricción entre los dos hace que las secciones separadas giren en
conjunto.
CAPITULO III

PROCESO DE COPIADO DIGITAL

3.1 La tecnología digital en el proceso de copiado.

El proceso de copiado utilizado por la copiadora digital es muy similar a los sistemas
de copiado convencionales. El cilindro aun es cargado. El documento original aun es
expuesto a la luz que es usada para crear una imagen latente en el cilindro. Las
diferencias más grandes están en cómo la luz es reunida (scanning); y como es
entregada al cilindro (impresión). Para entender mejor el proceso de copiado digital,
se necesita entender cómo la maquina hace el escaneo del original y como el láser
imprime en el cilindro. Ver anexo M.

Figura 23. Comparación del copiado convencional y digital.


3.2 El proceso de escaneo.

En una copiadora convencional la luz reflejada es transmitida directamente al cilindro


para crear una imagen “electrostática” latente. En una copiadora digital, la luz
reflejada del original es transmitida a un dispositivo de escaneo (Generalmente un
CCD) el cual convierte la luz en señal eléctrica análoga. Las señales análogas son
convertidas a información binaria (digital) y es almacenada en la memoria de acceso
aleatorio (RAM).

3.2.1 Proceso de conversión de la luz reflejada del papel en señal eléctrica.

Durante el proceso de scanning, la luz reflejada del documento original es transmitida


-una a la vez- a un dispositivo fotoeléctrico, generalmente un dispositivo par-cargado
(CCD) o un sensor de imagen de contacto (CIS). En nuestra ilustración utilizaremos
un CCD.

El CCD consiste en una serie de elementos sensibles a la luz que son capaces de
percibir la luz entrante y convertirla a un voltaje análogo con un valor que corresponde
a la densidad de la imagen original scaneada en un punto específico en la línea.

3.2.2 Funcionamiento del dispositivo CCD.

Figura 24. Operación del scanner y el CCD.


H: Salida análoga de alto voltaje de CCD (sin imagen)
L: Salida análoga de bajo voltaje de CCD (imagen)

Mientras más densa es la imagen (áreas oscuras), menos intensa es la luz reflejada, y
menor es la señal de salida del CCD. Mientras menos densa es la imagen (áreas
blancas), más intensa será la luz reflejada, y mayor será el valor de la salida de la
señal.

3.2.3 Conversión analógica / digital de la señal de imagen.

Antes de ser almacenados en el RAM, la señal análoga de cada elemento del CCD
debe ser convertida a un número binario (señal digital). Un convertidor análogo a
digital (A/D) en la tarjeta de control convierte la salida de voltaje análogo de cada
elemento de la figura del CCD a un número binario. El número (información digital)
también corresponde a la densidad del documento original en un punto específico de
la línea. La información es almacenada en la memoria (RAM).

Figura 25. Conversión analógico/digital de la imagen.

“Diferentes maquinas tienen diferentes habilidades para registrar tonos de gris. En


este ejemplo el scanner puede discriminar 256 niveles de contraste. Los numerales
binarios que serán almacenados en el RAM, variaran de cero a 255. El cuadro
muestra como convierte el sistema la señal análoga continua a una señal digital
separada.”
3.2.4 Proceso de división para convertir imágenes en blanco y negro sin
niveles de contraste.

Si el documento original es blanco y negro sin tonos de gris, un sistema llamado


proceso de división (Slice level) es calculado. Todas las salidas debajo del nivel de
división corresponden a los espacios en negro. Todas las salidas por encima del nivel
de división serán blancas. El proceso de división es la mejor técnica para copiar texto
o imágenes lineales en blanco y negro. Sin embargo cuando el usuario desea
preservar los tonos de gris, el método de procesamiento de escala gris es utilizado
generalmente.

3.2.5 Proceso para crear diferentes niveles de contraste.

El proceso para convertir y almacenar información para imágenes de escala gris es


diferente al proceso utilizado para convertir y almacenar información de imágenes en
blanco y negro.

El proceso de nivel de división establece un punto de corte sobre el cual la señal


análoga será convertida a “blanco”, y por debajo del cual será convertida a “negro”.
En este proceso, existen básicamente dos valores binarios almacenados en el RAM:
uno para negro y otra para blanco.

Para capturar graduaciones de contraste (escala gris), se debe almacenar un rango


más amplio de valores para cada elemento de figura. Diferentes maquinas tienen
diferentes habilidades para discriminar tonos de gris. Si el escáner puede discriminar
16 tonos de gris, entonces el numeral binario que es almacenado en la memoria
variará de cero a 15. Si el scanner puede leer 256 niveles de gris, entonces el número
de almacenado para cada salida de cada elemento de figura variará de cero a 255.
Generalmente el usuario determinara que proceso será utilizado: el proceso de
división o escala de gris. Esta selección se efectúa desde panel de control.
3.2.6 Elementos de la unidad de escaneo laser.
o Diodo laser.
o Lente colimador y abertura.
o Lente del cilindro.
o Circuitos Impresos.
o Elementos del vidrio ranurado.
o Un espejo poligonal y motor.
o Tarjeta de detección y espejos
o Varios espejos y lentes.

Figura 26. Unidad Láser.

“El laser recibe una señal digital generada por la información en la memoria y
convierte la señal digital a pulsos ópticos de luz que son transmitidos punto por punto,
línea por línea a la superficie fotosensitiva del cilindro. El rayo pulsante (Encendido y
Apagado) de luz pasa a través del lente Colimador y de la Apertura y luego es
enfocada hacia una de las superficies del Espejo poligonal por el lente del Cilindro. El
espejo poligonal gira de manera rápida durante la fase de impresión. Los pulsos de
luz son reflejados de la superficie del espejo giratorio al cilindro fotosensitivo.”

3.2.7 Espejo poligonal y motor.


La rotación del espejo poligonal está sincronizada con la rotación del cilindro
fotosensitivo para que la luz reflejada de cada cara del espejo equivalga a una línea
completa de información de la imagen del documento original. Ya que hay ocho caras
en este ejemplo, cada rotación del espejo poligonal escribe ocho líneas de
información de imagen en el cilindro.

A medida que el espejo gira y el cilindro gira, la luz del laser cambia el potencial de
carga del cilindro de acuerdo a la densidad de la imagen. Esto es equivalente al
proceso de “exposición” de las copiadoras convencionales y crea una imagen
electrostática latente. Ver anexo N

Figura 24. Función del espejo Poligonal.

“Cada rotación del espejo poligonal escribe ocho líneas de información de la


imagen en el cilindro”

3.3 Etapa de impresión digital.


La información de imagen en la RAM (la que corresponde a las densidades de la
imagen del original escaneado) es enviada a un laser semiconductor. El láser
proyecta pulsos separados de luz hacia el cilindro. Los pulsos de luz, los cuales
corresponden a las áreas oscuras del documento original, descargan el cilindro.

Las señales que corresponden a las áreas oscuras del documento original, descargan
el cilindro. Las señales que corresponden a las áreas blancas dejan la carga en el
cilindro casi intacta. Las áreas descargadas atraerán el tóner y crearan una imagen
visible la que puede ser transferida al papel de copiado. Ya que las áreas oscuras de
la imagen copiada resultan de las áreas descargadas del cilindro, es común decir que
el láser “escribe en negro”.

El revelado, transferencia, separación, fusión, limpieza y descarga en una copiadora


digital funcionan de manera similar que en las copiadoras convencionales.

Durante el proceso de impresión, las señales eléctricas que han sido almacenadas en
el RAM son convertidas a pulsos ópticos. Los pulsos son dirigidos al cilindro
fotosensitivo para crear una imagen electrostática latente.

Ya que el laser es un dispositivo binario, todo lo que hace es encender o apagar cada
elemento de figura (dot) a medida que hace el escaneo línea por línea a lo largo de la
superficie del cilindro. Donde se enciende, el cilindro es descargado, lo que reduce la
carga negativa que fue colocada en el cilindro por el cargador principal. Donde
permanece apagado, la carga en el cilindro permanece relativamente intacta.
Después del proceso de revelado, los elementos de figura atraen al tóner de acuerdo
a los distintos potenciales de carga que han sido creados en el cilindro, y la copia
visible de la imagen original es creada.

El siguiente grafico es de una unidad de escaneo laser típica. Esta consiste de varios
elementos.

3.4 Proceso de impresión en las copiadoras digitales.


a) Carga (Una carga negativa uniforme)

El cargador principal, coloca una carga negativa uniforme a lo largo de la superficie


del cilindro. Asumiremos -600V.

Figura 27. Carga negativa.

“El HVT genera un voltaje negativo para cargar el cargar el hilo y la rejilla. La carga es
distribuida a través de la rejilla a la superficie del cilindro.”

b) Exposición del Laser (descargando el cilindro)

Figura 28. Proceso de exposición del laser.


La información digital en el RAM es convertida a pulsos ópticos, y estos pulsos son
dirigidos por un laser semiconductor al cilindro fotosensitivo.

Donde el laser toca el cilindro, la carga negativa se reduce a un voltaje menor


(descargado) y donde no existe, la carga del cilindro permanece intacta.

Los cambios en el potencial de carga a lo largo de la superficie del cilindro crean una
imagen electrostática latente la cual está lista para el proceso de revelado.

c) Revelado (tóner cargado negativamente)

El revelado es similar al proceso de copiado convencional. Las partículas de tóner


cargadas son utilizadas para convertir la imagen electrostática latente en el cilindro a
una imagen visible que puede ser transferida al papel. La principal diferencia es que la
carga estática en el tóner, bias y cilindro están configurados para que el tóner sea
atraído a las áreas del cilindro que han sido descargadas por el laser.

El material revelador es alimentado a la superficie del cilindro fotosensitivo por los


rodillos magnéticos.

Mientras el cilindro regresa, el tóner cargado negativamente se une a las áreas en el


cilindro fotosensitivo que tienen un potencial al bias del revelador. Estas son las áreas
que han sido descargadas por el láser. Si el potencial de carga en el cilindro (del
cargador principal) es -600 V, por ejemplo, y el voltaje del bias del revelador es -
425VDC, solo esos puntos en el cilindro que han sido descargados (por el láser)
atraerán el tóner y crearan una imagen visible.

NOTA: Puede ser contradictorio que una carga negativa sea atraída a otra carga
negativa, pero recuerde que el voltaje es una medida relativa de un punto a otro. Si el
tóner tiene una carga de -425VDC y el cilindro tiene una carga de -300V, entonces el
tóner será atraído al cilindro como si tuviera un potencial de carga positivo. El área
descargada del cilindro de -300 V es relativamente positiva desde el punto de vista de
una partícula de tóner a -425V
d) Transferencia (Corona cargada positivamente).

Como el proceso de copiado convencional, cuando el papel pasa entre el tóner


cargado negativamente en el cilindro y la corona del cargador de transferencia
fuertemente cargada positivamente, el tóner es atraído hacia el papel y queda listo
para la separación y la fusión.

Figura 29. Corona de transferencia.

“La carga positiva de la corona de transferencia atrae el tóner cargado negativamente


hacia la superficie del papel de copiado.”

3.5 El proceso escalado gris durante la impresión.

Así como hay un mecanismo para crear escala gris durante el proceso de escaneo,
también hay una técnica para alcanzar las graduaciones de contraste durante el
proceso de impresión.

En una copiadora convencional, los tonos medios (graduaciones de gris) son creados
cuando las diferentes intensidades de luz que han sido reflejadas del documento
original cambian el potencial de carga del cilindro. Diferentes cantidades de tóner son
atraídas a diferentes aéreas y así se obtiene gris.
En una copiadora digital, se pueden usar diferentes técnicas para generar imágenes
de tonos medios. Una técnica es variar el porcentaje de puntos negros a puntos
blancos en cierta área. Otra técnica es variar la duración del ciclo de servicio del laser.

3.6 Creando escalas gris calculando el porcentaje de blanco y negro.

Los procesos de imagen digital como los que traen las maquinas de Fax distribuyen
los puntos blancos y negros en cierta área para crear escalas gris. La información de
salida de la memoria es utilizada para calcular el porcentaje de puntos blancos y
puntos negros que tomarán para duplicar las graduaciones que fueron detectadas
durante el proceso de scanning. Luego, el láser descarga el cilindro para crear el
porcentaje correcto de blanco y negro.

Si el CCD detecta una intensidad de luz que cae a la mitad entre los valores alto y
bajo, entonces el láser será instruido a distribuir 50% de los puntos en un área
determinada y dejar el resto en blanco. El ojo percibirá el grupo de 50% negro y 50%
blanco como gris. Hay diferentes maneras de ubicar los puntos en el cilindro para
poder lograr una escala gris más agradable al ojo, pero el principio permanece igual:
el laser es encendido y apagado para crear las diferentes densidades de puntos
blancos y negros dentro de una determinada área, que cuando sea revelada, creara
diferentes niveles de gris.

Figura 30. Formación de las escalas de gris.


3.7 Creando escalas de gris cambiando el ciclo de servicio de laser.

Otra técnica para crear escala de gris con un sistema digital es cambiando el ciclo de
servicio de laser. Es cierto, no se puede cambiar la salida de energía, pero cuando se
enciende, puede cambiar la cantidad de tiempo que el láser permanece encendido.

3.7.1 Funcionamiento del ciclo de servicio del pulso del laser.

El laser se enciende por un breve instante cada vez que se crea un punto. (El
porcentaje de “tiempo encendido” y “tiempo apagado” es llamado el ciclo de servicio).
Cambiando este periodo de tiempo -ciclo de servicio- podemos hacer que el pulso
óptico sea más largo o más corto. Cuando el pulso alcanza al cilindro, la cantidad de
carga se reduce proporcionalmente. Disminuya el ciclo de servicio y el laser crea un
punto más pequeño el cual aclarara la imagen general. Aumente el ciclo de servicio
y la carga será mayor, lo que oscurecerá la imagen.

Figura 31. Ciclo de servicio del láser (corto y largo)

“Observe que la frecuencia de cada pulso es el mismo para ambos ciclos de


servicio, el corto y el largo. La única cosa que cambia es la duración del pulso de
luz. El pulso más corto descarga menos, resultando en una imagen más clara. El
pulso más largo descarga mas creando una imagen más oscura.”
3.8 Proceso de imágenes a color.

Las imágenes de color pueden ser producidas de dos maneras, dependiendo si son
producidas por luz o por pigmentos. Las imágenes de la TV o monitor de PC son
creadas a partir de la luz y estas son llamadas colores RGB. Pero si las imágenes son
creadas al mezclar pigmentos sobre un objeto físico, por ejemplo tinta sobre el papel,
estas son llamadas proceso de color CMYK.

El modelado de color CMYK es abreviación de las cuatro tintas de color que pueden
ser combinadas en diferentes formas para ampliar el espectro visual. Estos colores
son: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black. Si se mezclan las tres primeras en la misma
proporción se obtiene el color negro, o al menos un color muy cercano a él. En la
tabla de abajo (Tabla 13) se puede apreciar las proporciones para obtener el color
requerido.

Tabla 13. Proporciones CMYK para la obtención de diferentes colores.

3.9 Proceso de escaneo de imagen a color

La luz reflejada de la superficie original del papel se somete a la separación del color
a través de filtros (R, G y B). Posteriormente un sensor CCD las convierte en señales
eléctricas y las emite a la unidad de proceso de imagen IR (Image Reader).
La señal eléctrica es convertida a una señal digital de 8 bits. Después de hacer
algunas correcciones, la unidad de proceso de imagen emite una señal de video (C,
M, Y y Bk) a la unidad de proceso de impresión de imagen.

Figura 32. Proceso de escaneo a color.

3.9.1 Conversión Fotoeléctrica.

 Para hacer que el proceso sea más rápido, la transferencia de datos se hace a
través de dos canales: una para pixeles pares numerados y otro para pixeles
impares numerados.
 El sensor CCD ofrece una resolución de 600 dpi sobre la superficie del cristal
proveniente de las originales.
 Cada chip R, G y B tiene 7,500 pixeles.
3.9.2 Conversión Análogo – Digital

La emisión de las señales analógicas pares e impares provenientes del sensor CCD
son convertidas a una señal digital de 8 bits las cuales entonces son sintetizadas o
compuestas.

3.9.3 Corrección de Sombra

Existe un error debido a las variaciones en la sensibilidad de cada chip CCD y la


distribución de luz que es corregida variando el largo y ancho de la lámpara de
exposición. De la siguiente manera:

1ro. Antes de comenzar el ciclo de copia, la luz de la lámpara de exposición


golpea la hoja sombreada y el sensor CCD lee la luz que se refleja desde
esta hoja.

2do. Esta lectura es comparada con los valores de referencia de la hoja de


sombra (valor de referencia blanca = máximo valor de datos de imagen)
para determinar el valor de corrección de cada pixel.

3ro. Cuando la imagen es escaneada, cada dato de pixel es corregido con el


valor de corrección ya mencionado.

3.9.4 Corrección de variación línea a línea.

Los chips RGB del sensor CCD están colocados de tal manera que hay una brecha
de 4 líneas en la dirección de subescaneo entre los dos chips adyacentes (R -> G ->
B). Esto resulta en una desviación en la posición de escaneo del original.
Figura 33. Proceso de corrección FIFO
“Una memoria llamada FIFO (First – in - first - out) es usada para compensar
esta desviación. Retarda el tiempo de salida de datos para R, G para
emparejarse con los datos de B. Los datos de salida van en el mismo orden
que los de entrada.”

3.9.5 Proceso de ampliación y reducción

La imagen es editada de acuerdo a las características seleccionadas desde el panel


de control (ampliación y/o reducción) para lo cual se utilizan dos memorias FIFO para
editar la imagen como es requerida.

La sincronía en la entrada de datos (lectura) y los datos de salida es variada para


decrecer (reducción) o crecer (ampliación) el original. De esa manera se amplía o
reduce la imagen en la dirección de escaneo principal.

La imagen es reducida o ampliada en la dirección de sub escaneo al variar la


velocidad a la cual el escáner se mueve.

3.9.6 Construcción de un Histograma.


 El área de escaneo es dividido en múltiples bloques.
 Los datos de la imagen tomados del original (excluyendo los bordes) es
muestreado durante el pre escaneo después de la corrección de sombra.
 Se genera un histograma de luminosidad y saturación.
 Se cuentan el número de puntos de color en cada bloque.
 Los resultados del conteo son usados para determinar si cada bloque del
original (excluyendo los bordes) es de color o monocromático.
 Basándose sobre los resultados de la evaluación color/monocromo hechas en
cada bloque, la copiadora determina si el original completo es de color o
monocromo (ACS o Auto Color Selection)
Figura 34. Histogramas de Saturación y luminosidad en la fotocopiadora a color
Konica Minolta CF2001.

3.9.7 Edición de los datos de la imagen


Los datos de R, G y B son convertidos a V (Valor), Cr y Cb (componentes del color)
para ajustes de color (saturación, luminosidad y matiz).

3.9.8 Procesamiento AE (Automatic Extractión)

Al leer los datos de la imagen se etiquetan cada uno de los cuatro niveles de
gradación usando muestreo de datos en la etapa de “Construccion de Histograma”

Estas lecturas de datos de luminosidad etiquetados para cada uno de los cuatro
niveles de gradación son totalizadas para generar un histograma de luminosidad.

3.9.8.1 Conversión Densidad/Reflexión

 La reproducción fiel del original no es posible si los datos de reflexión del


original (R, G y B) obtenidos a través del sensor CCD sean convertidos a un
dato de color complementario para el revelado.
Figura 35. Conversion Densidad/Reflexion

 Los datos R, G y B están por consiguiente introducidos a la tabla


LOG(mostrado abajo) para convertir a los datos de densidad (DR, DG y DB)

3.9.8.2 Muestreo

Considerando las características de transmisión espectral de los filtros R, G y B del


sensor CCD y las características de reflexión espectral del tóner, los datos de imagen
son corregidos y los datos DR, DG y DB son remplazados con datos C, M y Y, de
esta manera hace posible la reproducción de color fiel al original.

3.9.8.3 Suavizado (Smoothing)

Los componentes ruidosos contenidos en la imagen son retirados para “suavizarlos”.

Figura 36. Corrección de ruidos en la imagen

3.9.8.4 Ajuste de Densidad y Balance de Color


 El ajuste de densidad esta hecho al cambiar el ángulo de la curva (fi) que
representa la relación entre la entrada y salida de la imagen.
 El balance de color es ajustado al cambiar el angulo de la curva (fi) de cada
color.

Figura 37. Ajuste de Densidad y Color

3.9.8.5 Corrección Gamma


 El tipo de curva (fi) es cambiado para hacer la imagen más brillosa, oscura,
definida o borrosa.

Figura 38. Corrección de Gamma

3.10 Sección de impresión

La sección de impresión hace las correcciones necesarias de los datos de imagen


obtenidas del IR.
La luz del LED ilumina la superficie del cilindro PC para formar una imagen
electrostática latente.

Figura 40. Proceso de Impresión a color.

3.10.1 Compresión GBTC ( General Block Truncation Coding)

Comprime las imágenes Y,M,C y Bk (8 bits, 256 nivele de gradación, 4 colores) para
reducir su volumen. Estos se guardan temporalmente en la memoria Buffer.

CAPITULO IV

APORTE ACADÉMICO, CONCLUSIONES Y RECOMENDACIONES

4 Aporte académico.
Durante el tiempo de pasantía en el departamento técnico, las funciones que se
realizaron fueron de transporte, instalación, configuración y capacitación al cliente
para el uso de equipos de impresión. Por consiguiente los trabajos fueron diversos y
es necesario considerar lo siguiente:

- El peso de las copiadoras oscila entre 50 y 300 Kg. (Dependiendo del modelo).
Su transporte se hace riesgoso. Por lo cual es necesario tomar en cuenta las
normas de seguridad en el trabajo, utilizando ropa de trabajo adecuada:
guantes de cuero, overol de lona gruesa y casco de seguridad.

- Con la adquisición de equipos electrónicos para la escritura/lectura/borrado de


circuitos integrados CMOS, ahora se reutilizan para utilizarlos en otras
maquinas. Anteriormente se desechaban. El departamento técnico aprovecha o
adapta estos componentes para otros modelos. Esto ahorra gastos y amplía
los servicios que la empresa provee.

- En el momento de instalar una copiadora se debe hacer la conexión a tierra. En


muchos casos, los clientes piden no tomar en cuenta esta conexión. El
personal técnico les explica la importancia que eso tiene para evitar daños al
equipo o tener accidentes como incendios provocados por una mala conexión.

- En la instalación de copiadoras, se utiliza tóner y revelador que son tóxicos


para el ser humano. Las normas de seguridad industrial en el trabajo indican la
prevención sobre el manipuleo de compuestos de esta naturaleza. Por esto es
necesario el uso de mascarillas y guantes de goma cuando se hace el servicio
técnico a una copiadora especialmente en las unidades de revelado y fusión.

- Cuando se hace el servicio técnico a una copiadora, muchas veces se lo hace


con la maquina encendida. Es por eso que se deben tomar en cuenta los altos
voltajes que circulan en el cargador de transferencia y de separación. Estos
voltajes altos son producidos en la tarjeta HVT de la copiadora que es similar al
Flyback de un televisor. Para su medición es necesario utilizar un multimetro.
Relacionando así las materias de Instrumentos y medidas, electricidad general
y control. Ya que el uso inadecuado de los instrumentos nos llevaría a
accidentes.

- La mayor parte de los manuales de servicio técnico que se utilizan están en


idioma inglés. Cuando se necesitan, se utiliza software de traducción. Pero se
sabe que ningún programa de traducción es 100% fiable. Los estudiantes de la
Facultad Técnica tenemos conocimientos en este idioma. Lo que ayudo en la
verificación y corrección en su traducción. De no hacerlo se corren riesgos de
mal ensamblaje de los equipos.

- El evento que se realizo en el Hotel Radisson para el lanzamiento de


copiadoras-imprenta de última generación. Conto con el soporte técnico de la
empresa. En dicho evento se requerían los conocimientos de varias áreas de la
electrónica. Ya que se instalaron equipos de iluminación sonido y video. Con
estas actividades realizadas se demostró la capacidad técnica para llevar
adelante dicho evento.
5 Conclusiones
El periodo de pasantía se ha desarrollado en dos áreas: Departamento de servicio
técnico y el departamento técnico informático. En ambas áreas se conocieron las
diferentes actividades que se realizan en forma práctica. Lo que permitió cumplir con
los objetivos trazados desde un enfoque técnico. Así como en todas las áreas que
comprenden la empresa.

De esta manera se puso en práctica los conocimientos técnicos en cuanto al


mantenimiento preventivo y correctivo de diferentes copiadoras multifuncionales.
Como también en equipos de oficina.

La experiencia adquirida durante este periodo en el área técnica, dio la oportunidad


de consolidar los conocimientos como Técnico Superior en Electrónica.

6 Recomendaciones
Por todo lo observado y experimentado se recomienda lo siguiente:

 Para tener los manuales técnicos a disposición durante el mantenimiento de las


copiadoras en lugares lejanos. Se recomienda llevar una PC portátil (laptop)
que contenga textos e información sobre diversos modelos y tipos de fallas.
Esto facilitaría su mantenimiento y reparación.

 El inventario de repuestos y componentes debe estar mejor catalogado.


Muchos de esos componentes son desechados como chatarra. Pudiéndose
reutilizar o adaptándolos para otros modelos.

PS-1
Precautions for Dis/Reassembly
• Be sure to unplug the copier from the outlet before attempting to service the copier.
• The basic rule is not to operate the copier anytime during disassembly. If it is absolutely
necessary to run the copier with its covers removed, use care not to allow your clothing to
be caught in revolving parts such as the timing belt and gears.
• Before attempting to replace parts and unplug connectors, make sure that the power
cord of the copier has been unplugged from the wall outlet.
• Be sure to use the Interlock Switch Actuating Jig whenever it is necessary to actuate the
Interlock Switch with the covers left open or removed.
• Do not plug in or unplug print jacks on the PWB or connect or disconnect the PWB con-
nectors while power is being supplied to the copier.
• Never use flammable sprays near the copier.
• A battery (lithium, nickel-cadmium, etc.) is used in this machine. Do not charge or short
circuit it and make sure of the correct polarity at replacement.
• A used battery should be disposed of according to the local regulations and never be dis-
carded casually or left unattended at the user's premises.
• When reassembling parts, make sure that the correct screws (size, type) and toothed
washer are used in the correct places.
• If it becomes necessary to replace the thermal fuse or any other fuse mounted on a
board, be sure to use one of the rating marked on the blown fuse. Always note the rating
marked on the fuse, as the rating and mounting site or number used are subject to
change without notice.

Precautions for Circuit Inspection


• Never create a closed circuit across connector pins except those specified in the text and
on the printed circuit.
• When creating a closed circuit and measuring a voltage across connector pins specified
in the text, be sure to use the GND wire.

PS-2
Handling of PWBs
1. During Transportation/Storage:
• During transportation or when in storage, new P.W. Boards must not be indiscriminately
removed from their protective conductive bags.
• Do not store or place P.W. Boards in a location exposed to direct sunlight and high tem-
perature.
• When it becomes absolutely necessary to remove a Board from its conductive bag or
case, always place it on its conductive mat in an area as free as possible from static elec-
tricity.
• Do not touch the pins of the ICs with your bare hands.
• Protect the PWBs from any external force so that they are not bent or damaged.

2. During Inspection/Replacement:
• Avoid checking the IC directly with a multimeter; use connectors on the Board.
• Never create a closed circuit across IC pins with a metal tool.
• Before unplugging connectors from the P.W. Boards, make sure that the power cord has
been unplugged from the outlet.
• When removing a Board from its conductive bag or conductive case, do not touch the
pins of the ICs or the printed pattern. Place it in position by holding only the edges of the
Board.
• When touching the PWB, wear a wrist strap and connect its cord to a securely grounded
place whenever possible. If you cannot wear a wrist strap, touch a metal part to dis-
charge static electricity before touching the PWB.
• Note that replacement of a PWB may call for readjustments or resetting of particular
items.

Handling of Other Parts


• The magnet roller generates a strong magnetic field. Do not bring it near a watch, floppy
disk, magnetic card, or CRT tube.

PS-3
Handling of the PC Drum
✽ Only for Products Not Employing an Imaging Cartridge.
1. During Transportation/Storage:
• Use the specified carton whenever moving or storing the PC Drum.
• The storage temperature is in the range between –20°C and +40°C.
• In summer, avoid leaving the PC Drum in a car for a long time.

2. Handling:
• Ensure that the correct PC Drum is used.
• Whenever the PC Drum has been removed from the copier, store it in its carton or protect
it with a Drum Cloth.
• The PC Drum exhibits greatest light fatigue after being exposed to strong light over an
extended period of time. Never, therefore, expose it to direct sunlight.
• Use care not to contaminate the surface of the PC Drum with oil-base solvent, finger-
prints, and other foreign matter.
• Do not scratch the surface of the PC Drum.
• Do not apply chemicals to the surface of the PC Drum.
• Do not attempt to wipe clean the surface of the PC Drum.

If, however, the surface is contaminated with fingerprints, clean it using the following proce-
dure.

1. Place the PC Drum into one half of its carton.

1076D001

2. Gently wipe the residual toner off the surface of the


PC Drum with a dry, Dust-Free Cotton Pad.
A. Turn the PC Drum so that the area of its surface on
which the line of toner left by the Cleaning Blade is
present is facing straight up. Wipe the surface in
one continuous movement from the rear edge of
the PC Drum to the front edge and off the surface
of the PC Drum.
1076D002
B. Turn the PC Drum slightly and wipe the newly
exposed surface area with a CLEAN face of the
Dust-Free Cotton Pad. Repeat this procedure until
the entire surface of the PC Drum has been thor-
oughly cleaned.
✽ At this time, always use a CLEAN face of the dry
Dust-Free Cotton Pad until no toner is evident on the
face of the Pad after wiping.

PS-4
3. Soak a small amount of either ethyl alcohol or iso-
propyl alcohol into a clean, unused Dust-Free Cot-
ton Pad which has been folded over into quarters.
Now, wipe the surface of the PC Drum in one con-
tinuous movement from its rear edge to its front
edge and off its surface one to two times.
✽ Never move the Pad back and forth.

1076D003

4. Using the SAME face of the Pad, repeat the proce-


dure explained in the latter half of step 3 until the
entire surface of the PC Drum has been wiped.
Always OVERLAP the areas when wiping. Two
complete turns of the PC Drum would be appropri-
ate for cleaning.

1-2. PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING THE LASER EQUIPMENT


• The laser used in this copier is a semiconductor laser having the following specifications.

Max. power: 5 mW × 2
Output wavelength: 770 to 800 nm

• When laser protective goggles are to be used, select ones with a lens conforming to the
above specifications.
• When a disassembly job needs to be performed in the laser beam path, such as when
working around the printerhead and PC Drum, be sure first to turn the copier OFF.
• If the job requires that the copier be left ON, take off your watch and ring and wear laser
protective goggles.
• A highly reflective tool can be dangerous if it is brought into the laser beam path. Use
utmost care when handling tools on the user’s premises.
• The printerhead is not maintainable in the field. It is to be replaced as an assembly
including the control board. Never, therefore, attempt to remove the laser diode or adjust
trimmers on the control board.

D-1
NOTES
• The Organic Photoconductor Drum is softer than CdS and Selenium Drums and is there-
fore susceptible to scratches.
• Even when the PC Drum is only locally dirtied, wipe the entire surface.
• Do not expose the PC Drum to direct sunlight. Clean it as quickly as possible even under
interior illumination.
• If dirt remains after cleaning, repeat the entire procedure from the beginning one more
time.

1-3. PARTS WHICH MUST NOT BE TOUCHED


(1) Red painted Screws

Purpose of Application of Red Paint


Red painted screws show that the assembly or unit secured can only be adjusted or set at
the factory and should not be adjusted, set, or removed in the field.
Note that when two or more screws are used on the part in questions, only one representa-
tive screw may be marked with red paint.

(2) Variable Resistors on Board

Do not turn the variable resistors on boards for which no adjusting instructions are given in
“ADJUSTMENT.”

(3) Other Screws


Although not marked with red paint, the following screws must not be loosened or read-
justed.

8 screws on the PH Unit Cover 4 screws on the Image Transfer/


Paper Separator Coronas

1. INTRODUCTION
1-1. Reading the Text
1. The paper transport failure troubleshooting procedures are given according to the
symptom. First identify the location where the paper is present and start the procedure
for that particular location. For malfunction troubleshooting, start with step 1 and
onward.
2. Make checks in the numerical order of steps and, if an item is checked okay, go to the
next step.

Pattern 1 Pattern 2
Step Check Result Action Step Check Result Action
1 ~ YES ~ 1 ~ YES ~
2 NO ~
2
Go to step 2 if you answered No.
Go to step 2 if it checks okay.

2. I/O CHECK
2-1. Controlled Parts Check Procedure

To allow the Tech. Rep. to easily and safely determine whether a particular controlled part
is fully operational, this copier provides the following provision. Checking the data of the
input port of the board IC with the copier in the standby state (including a misfeed, malfunc-
tion, and closure failure condition) allows the Tech. Rep. to determine whether signals are
properly input to a controlled part.

<Procedure>
1. When a misfeed or malfunction occurs, locate on a circuit diagram accompanying the
text the controlled part which is probably defective.
2. Select “I/O Check” from the Tech. Rep. Mode menu screen and access the screen that
contains the controlled part picked out in step 1 above. (See SWITCHES ON PWBs/
TECH. REP. MODE.)
3. Check the input port data to determine if a signal is properly input to the controlled part.

<Controlled Part Check Procedure Through Checking Input Port Data>

Example
When a paper misfeed occurs in the paper take-up section of the copier, the Synchronizing
Roller Sensor (PC1) is considered to be responsible for it.
<Procedure>
1. Remove the sheet of paper misfed.
2. From the I/O Check list, it is found that the signal input to PC1 is “Timing Roller.”
3. Select “Tech. Rep. Mode” → “I/O Check” → “Printer.” Then access the screen that con-
tains “Timing Roller.”
4. Check that the input port data of “Timing Roller” is “0” (sensor is blocked).
5. Move the PC1 actuator to unblock the sensor.
6. Check at this time that the input port data on the screen changes from “0” to “1.”
1: PC1 is operational. 0: PC1 is faulty.
