(3) Do not insert many cords in an outlet. A fire can be occurred due to flow over current in an outlet.
(4) Do not put water or extraneous matter in the PRINTER. Please do not put water, other liquid, pin, clip, etc. It
can cause a fire, electric shock, or malfunction. If this occurs, turn off the power and remove the power plug
from outlet immediately.
(5) Do not touch the power plug with wet hand. When servicing, remove the power plug from outlet. Do not insert
or take off it with wet hand. Electric shock can be occurr.
(6) Caution when inserting or taking off the power plug. The power plug has to be inserted completely. If not, a fire
can be caused due to poor contact. When taking off the power plug, grip the plug and take it off. If grip the line
and pull over, it could be damaged. A fire or electric shock could happen.
(7) Management of power cord. Do not bend, twist, or bind it and place other materials on it. Do not fix with staples. If the power cord gets damaged, a fire or electric shock can happen. A damaged power cord must be
replaced immediately. Do not repair the damaged part and reuse it. A repaired part with plastic tape can be
cause a fire or electric shock. Do not spread chemicals on the power cord. Do not spread insecticide on the
power cord. A fire or electric shock can be happen due to thinner(weak) cover of the power cord.
(8) Check whether the power outlet and the power plug are damaged, pressed, chopped, or blazing fire or not.
When such inferiorities are found, repair it immediately. Do not make it pressed or chopped when moving the
machine.
(9) Caution when there is thundering or lightning, and being flash of lightening. It causes a fire or electric shock.
Take the power plug off there is thunder. Do not touch cable and device when thundering and flash of lightening.
(10) Avoid the place where is moisture or has dust. Do not install the printer where lots of dust or around humidifier. A fire can occurred. A plug part need to clean well with dried fabric to remove dust. If water drops are
dripped on the place covered with dust, a fire can occurred.
(11) Avoid direct sunlight. Do not install the printer near window where direct contacts to the sunlight. If the
machine contacts sunlight long time, the machine cannot work properly because inner temperature of the
machine is getting hotter. A fire can occur.
(12) Turn off the power and take off the plug when smoke, strange smell, or sound from the machine. If you keep
using it, a fire can be occurred.
(13) Do not insert steel or metal piece inside/outside of the machine. Do not put steel or metal piece into a ventilator. An electric shock could happened.

Please confirm whether it is balanced or not after installation. If it is unbalanced, an accident can be happened due to the machine falling over.
(2) Be careful not to insert a finger or hair in the rotating unit.
Be careful not to insert a finger of hair in the rotating unit (motor, fan, paper feeding part, etc) while the
machine is operating. Once it happens, you could be harmed.
(3) Do not place a pot containing water/chemical or small metals. If they got caught into the inner side of
machine, a fire or electric shock can be occurred.
(4) Do not install it where lots of moisture or dust exists or where raindrop reaches. A fire or electric shock
can be caused.
(5) Do not place a candlelight, burning cigarette, and etc. on the machine. Do not install it near to heater. A
fire can be occurred.
1.2.4 Assembly/Disassembly precaution

When replacing parts, do it very carefully. Memorize the location of each cable before replace parts for reconnecting it afterwards. Memorize. Please perform the steps below before replace or disassembly the parts.
(1) Check the contents stored in the memory. All the information will be erased after replacing main board.
The information needed to keep has to be written down.
(2) Before servicing or replacing electric parts, take off plug.
(3) Take off printer cables and power cord connected to printer.
(4) Use formal parts and same standardized goods when replacing parts.Must check the product name,
part cord, rated voltage, rated current, operating temperature, etc.

Precautions
1.3 ESD Precautions

Certain semiconductor devices can be easily damaged by static electricity. Such components are commonly called
Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices, or ESDs. Examples of typical ESDs are: integrated circuits, some field
effect transistors, and semiconductor chip components.
The techniques outlined below should be followed to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by
static electricity.
Caution >>Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.
1. Immediately before handling a semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any
electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, employ a commercially available wrist strap device, which should be removed for your personal safety reasons prior to applying power to the
unit under test.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ESDs, place the assembly on a conductive surface, such
as aluminum or copper foil, or conductive foam, to prevent electrostatic charge buildup in the vicinity of the
assembly.
3. Use only a grounded tip soldering iron to solder or desolder ESDs.
4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified as anti-static can
generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ESDs.
5. Do not use Freon-propelled chemicals. When sprayed, these can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ESDs.
6. Do not remove a replacement ESD from its protective packaging until immediately before installing it. Most
replacement ESDs are packaged with all leads shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil, or a comparable conductive material.
7. Immediately before removing the protective shorting material from the leads of a replacement ESD, touch the
protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.
8. Maintain continuous electrical contact between the ESD and the assembly into which it will be installed, until
completely plugged or soldered into the circuit.
9. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ESDs. Normal motions, such as the brushing
together of clothing fabric and lifting ones foot from a carpeted floor, can generate static electricity sufficient to
damage an ESD.

System Overview
3.1.5 LSU (Laser Scanner Unit)

The LSU unit is controlled by video controller. It scans the video data received from video controller with laser beam
by using the rotation principle of the polygon mirror to create the latent image on the OPC drum. It is the core part of
LBP.
The OPC drum rotates as the same speed as the paper feeding speed. It creates the /HSYNC signal and sends it
to the engine when the laser beam of the LSU reaches the end of the polygon mirror, and the engine detects the
/HSYNC signal to arrange the vertical line of the image on the paper. After detecting the /HSYNC signal, the image
data is sent to the LSU to arrange the its margin on the paper. The one side of the polygon mirror is one line for
scanning..

System Overview
3.2.4 Sensor Controller

3.2.4.1 Paper Feeding/Width
When a paper passes an actuator of a feed sensor unit after feeding a paper into a set,it detects a signal of
the photo interrupter and informs the paper feeding status to CPU. After sensing the signal and certain time
later, it strews an image data.(Related in Paper Front Edge Adjustment)
If it could not detect the feed sensor within 1 second after feeding a paper, a paper jam0 (CPU#_) occurs.
Phaser 3117 differs from other general printers because it doesnt have a paper empty sensor. It recognizes
the paper existing status by using a firmware. If a paper is not fed, it recognizes the state as no paper (Red
and Yellow lights turn on among other LEDs). With the same principle, it senses the OPC unit. After OPC
unit is mounted,the actuator operates. When it passes the actuator of sensor unit, it detects the signal of
the photo interrupter, informs the existing OPC unit to CPU, and then stays at the status.
3.2.4.2 Paper Empty Sensing

The paper empty is detected by the empty sensor mounted to an engine board and the actuator mounted
to a frame. Paper senses the on/off time of the empty sensor by using CPU and informs the normal
operation status and the jam occurrence status to CPU.
3.2.4.3 Jam Cover/Cover Open Sensing

Phaser 3117 uses two M/S:one senses the cover open and the other senses the jam cover open.
The cover open sensor is located on the left bottom of HVPS.When the front cover is open, +24V supplied
to each unit (DC fan,Solenoid,Main Motor,Polygon Motor Unit of LSU in Fusing Unit,and HVPS)is
interrupted.
The jam cover open sensor is located on the left bottom of SMPS. When the jam cover is open, +24V
supplied to each unit (DC fan, Solenoid, Main Motor, Polygon Motor Unit of LSU in Fusing Unit, and HVPS)
is interrupted.
D0 bit of CPU detects the jam cover open/cover open, and D7 bit of CPU detects the existence of OPC.
In this case, it informs the status to user by turning on the red LED among OP panel LEDs.
3.2.4.4 Solenoid Driving Circuit

The solenoid consists of two used for paper pick-up and MP signal. D4 bit of CPU turns it on/off, and its
driving time is 300ms. The diode protects the drive TR from the pulse (noise)generated by de-energizing
operation of solenoid.

3.2.7 FUSER AC POWER CONTROL

Fuser(HEAT LAMP) gets heat from AC power. The AV power controls the switch with the Triac, a semiconductor
switch. The 'ON/OFF control' is operated when the gate of the Triac is turned on/off by Phototriac (insulting part).
In other words, the AC control part is passive circuit, so it turns the heater on/off with taking signal from engine
control part.
When the 'HEATER ON' signal is turned on at engine, the LED of PC1 (Photo Triac) takes the voltage and flashes.
From the flashing light, the Triac part (light receiving part) takes the voltage, and the voltage is supplied to the gate
of Triac and flows into the Triac. As a result, the AC current flows in the heat lamp, and heat is occurred.
On the other hand, when the signal is off, the PC1 is off, the voltage is cut off at the gate of Triac, the Triac
becomes off, and then the heat lamp is turned off.

3.3 S/W Structure and Descriptions

The purpose of this document is to describe the design specification of the Engine Control F/W for the
Phaser 3117.
3.3.1 Introduction
This Engine Control Firmware is a program that controls LBP Engine of the Phaser 3117.
This firmware is executed every 10msec as an interrupt routine of the main system. At stand-by state, this firmware
monitors the enable print command from the main system. If the enable print command is detected, this firmware
controls the Engine Mechanism according to the printing process and paper feeding state. And with the Sleep
command or Wake-Up command, this firmware controls the Engine state.
3.3.2 Engine Control F/W Overview

Engine Control F/W is executed every 10msec by timer interrupt of main system. And it consists of 3 control
modules.
- Engine Main Control, Interface Control and Sensing & Unit Control Module.
Major operations of the Engine Control F/W are following.
- Control the Pick-Up, Feeding and Discharging of Paper
- Control the LSU
- Control the HVPS for the Developer Process
- Control the Temperature of Fixing unit

System Overview
3.3.3 F/W Architecture of Engine Control Firmware

- The Engine Control Module is executed every 10msec as interrupt job of main system. There are three
control modules, i.e., Engine Main Control Module, Engine Interface Module and Sensing & Unit Control
Module.
- Probably from usual state it will be able to rehabilitated a prior to entry error state in error condition it is to
confirm. When the if rehabilitation is possible then after rehabilitating it goes back in usual state, else with
an error condition it goes in error state. Currently the rehabilitation function of the low heat error , the over
heat error and the LSU error is embodied.
- Low Heat Error
When the error occurrs, it does not indicate an error. It stores the present temperature and supplies the
heat to the fixing unit during the scheduled time. If the temperature goes up after scheduled time, it goes
back to a normal state. However, if not, it is formed that an error occurrs.
- Over Heat Error
When the error occurs, it informs an error first. It stores the present temperature as well and waits a
scheduled time. If the temperature goes down after scheduled time, then it goes back to a normal state.
However, if not, it is formed that an error occurrs.
- Lsu Error
When the error occurrs, it does not indicate an error. It accomplishes printing only again. If even time
when it judges an error, it informs an error. Concretely speaking, if the LReady or Hsync error happens,
the paper exits out beforehand. And then the engine mode is changed to recovery mode and the engine
informs the main system of the engine mode. And the engine checks the LSU error in itself. If the error
doesnt happen, the printing job will be proceeding.
3.3.4 Engine Interface Module Design

Engine Interface Module communicates with the main system in order to receive the command from main system
and to transmit the present engine status for the requested status. There are two sub functions. One is a function to
receive the command from the main system. The other is a function that informs the main system of the current
engine status for the requested item.
3.3.5 Engine Sensing & Unit Control Module Design

Engine Sensing & Unit Control Module consists of 4 sub-functions. The first function is an ADC function that reads
the ADC values of the temperature of the fixing unit. The second one is a fixing unit control function. This function
regulates the temperature of the fixing unit within a fixed range to be set by the paper type and the number of pages
to print out. The third one is a fan control function that controls the fan unit. And the last one sets the flag that
describes the present status of each sensor.

Disassembly and Reassembly
5. Disassembly and Reassembly

5.1 General Precautions on Disassembly
When you disassemble and reassemble components, you must use extreme caution. The close proximity of cables
to moving parts makes proper routing a must.
If components are removed, any cables disturbed by the procedure must be restored as close as possible to their
original positions. Before removing any component from the machine, note the cable routing that will be affected.
Whenever servicing the machine, you

must perform as follows:
1. Check to verify that documents are not stored in
memory.
Releasing Plastic Latches

Many of the parts are held in place with plastic latches.
The latches break easily; release them carefully.
To remove such parts, press the hook end of the latch
away from the part to which it is latched.
2. Be sure to remove the toner cartridge before you

disassemble parts.
3. Unplug the power cord.
4. Use a flat and clean surface.
5. Replace only with authorized components.
6. Do not force plastic-material components.
7. Make sure all components are in their proper position.

Solution
1. Run Self-Test Mode : Turn the power on while pressing

the test printing button for 2 or 3 seconds before printing
works.
1.Check the power of the printer and perform the SelfTest. If the test printing works, that means no problems in the printer itself. If the test printing does not
work, that means bad functioning of the printer(not
because of software). Perform DCU to check the
Error Status.
2. Check if the PC and the printer is properly connected

and the toner cartridge installed.
2. Replace the printer cable. If the problems not solved

even after the cable replaced, check the amount of
the remaining tone.

is proper. If you use windows, check if the printer driver in the controller is set up. If the printer driver is
properly set up, check in which program the printing
is not working. The best way to find out is to open the
memo pad to check the function of printing. If it is not
working in a certain program, adjust the setup the
program requires. Sometimes, the printout is normal
within the Windows basic programs, but it's not working in a particular program. In such case, install the
new driver again. If not working in the Windows basic
program, Check the setup of the port of CMOS is on
ECP. And check the address of IRQ 7 and 378

The heat lamp radiates heat by using AC power. The AC power is a TRIAC (a semiconductor switch device) which
controls a switch. The ON/OFF control is completed by turning on/off a gate of the TRIAC through a photo TRIAC
which is insulation part.
If explaining more detail about the AC control part, it consists of passive circuit ; therefore, it turns on/off the heater
by receiving the signal from the engine control part. If the heater on signal is turned on at the engine, electricity flows
in as the LED of the PC1 (Photo TRIAC) is connected. Then, it emits light.
By this light, the TRIAC unit, a light receiving unit, becomes on, and electricity is supplied to the gate of the TRIAC.
Then, the TRIAC is turned on. As a result, AC current flows in a heat lamp, and the heat lamp radiates heat.
On the other contrary, if the signal is turned off, the PC1 becomes off, and the TRIAC is turned off due to no electricity at the gate of the TRIAC. Consequently, the heat lamp is turned off.
Special Feature of TRIAC (THY 1): 16A, 600V SWITCHING
Phototriac Coupler (PC3)
Turn On If Current: 15mA~50mA (Design: 16mA)
High Repeive Peak Off State Voltage: Min 600V

Circuit Description
Explanation about the condition of Normal Operation

If the fuser (P3.7) port becomes high, the Q6 is activated. A heat lamp starts operating by the activity.
As the temperature of the heat lamp is increased, the resistance value of the thermister is decreased.
Therefore, the electric potential of the circled A becomes low.
On/Off operation of the Q6 is only controlled by the fuser (P3.7) port because 5(+) of the
U11(Comparator) is always higher than 6 (-) within the normal control temperature rage.
Functions of the Malfunction Protection:
If the fuser port (P3.7) is turned on regardless of controlling due to system malfunction, the temperature of the heat roller goes abnormally high. At this time, the resistance value of the thermister becomes
low.
When the resistance value of the thermister becomes low, the electric potential of the circled A gets low,
and when the temperature goes over the certain temperature, the comparator (U11) gets a low output.
As a result, even though the fuser port is abnormally activated, it is disable to be over the regular temperature. For maintaining a regular temperature, a protect circuit consists in it (This protection is set up
to start operating at the rage between 205~210)
12.1.2 PWM Controller

Function Description
PWM TIMER consists of each sub block which has various functions. The sub block is divided based on
this block diagram. The entire diagram of the PWMTIMER is organized as below.
PWM TIMER OPERATION is figured out if calculating PHCLK by the value selected by the register setting
and the divider. PHCLK is created by count block at the PWM TIMER

12.1.3 Motor Driver

A motor drive circuit is decided when selecting a driver IC. (Supplied by vendor) Phaser 3117 uses the motor driver IC of
AN44060. However, the sensing resistance Rs value and the Vreference resistance value are variable according to
the motor drive current value.
12.1.4 LSU Controller

The laser scanning unit controller (LSUC) of Jupiter4E is a block for interface between PVC block and LSU.
LSUC sends the video data received from PVC and the laser diode turn On/Off signal created by inner 21 bit counter
to the laser diode of LSU. LSU creates the horizontal sync signal (nHSYNC) by sensing the inputted diode turn on/off
signal with the attached sensor. nHSYNC is inputted to PVC and LSUC as a signal that informs the beginning of one
line. Also, LSU makes the activity of nLREADY signal (ready to print) low when the polygon motor becomes regularly rotating. LSU can recognize the regular rotation status of the polygon motor by reading nLREADYFlag bit in SFR.
Once the polygon motor regularly rotates, it sends the page sync signal (nPSync) to PVC by writing 1 at LSUCON[5]
in LSUC, and PVC starts operating for one page printing. After that, every time nHSYNC signal is created, PVC senses the signal and outputs the video data (PVC_VDO) to LSUC. At this time, LSUC creates the video window (Printing
area) and masks it on the video data sent by PVC. LSUC sends the completed video data (LSU_VDO) to the laser
diode in LSU.
Also, LSUC supplies LSU_CLK, created by counting the system clock with the operation clock source of LSU, for the
use of substitution for oscillator. The SFR is set up in IsuSfr block by receiving the bus control signal from APB bus,
and the settled register values are redelivered to IsuCon block. IsuCon block creates a signal for controlling the laser
diode of LSU and outputs it to a pad. The digital filter module is a digital filter to provide against the noise loaded in
nHSYNC and nLREADY signal which directly get into the chip. It is three layer filter, and the delay time is 3*System
Clock Time.
The interface between PVC and LSUC is shown in the picture.

Jupiter4E ADC Controller has 3 analog input channels.
It automatically converts the 3 channels in turns with 10 bit 500KSPS adc1275x_pc, and also it makes the conversion
on the desired time by manually controlling STC of the register. After finishing the conversion, it makes the interruption to be pending. When AD conversion of 3 rd channel ends for the PI Control of LSU, it sends the 10bit digital data
converted with the latch short pulse signal to LSUC.
