This has occasionally caused the paper edges to appear on the printed copies. Thus, in this series, the default value for the binding margin is changed to “0 mm on the right (on the back of the sheet)” and the default value to mask the paper edge (SP mode) is also changed to reduce the chance of the black streak appearing.

After the scanner lamp unit emits the light to the document, the light goes through route shown below and reaches the CCD.

In book mode (platen mode), the scanner scans the document from left to right. When the ADF is used (ADF mode), the scanner is fixed in the home position on the left side, and the document is transported and read (sheet-through method). Scanner Scanner lamp The light source is an LED. The LED emits little heat (low power consumption), and has excellent light output rise characteristics. CCD The 3 line color CCD converts shade in the document to 3 color (B, G, and R) electrical signals. The use of a 4.7 µm image CCD achieves low-cost and compactness. Reflection plate (reflector) The reflection plate reflects light from the scanner lamp, and collects light for the document read unit. The light which illuminates the document is adjusted to be the same on the left and right so as not to cast any shadow on the document. White reference seal A white reference seal for shading correction is affixed to the underside of the scale on the left of the MFP. This is read by the scanner and CCD when the power is ON. The data read are temporarily stored in a RAM, and used for correction of document image data. Detailed Descriptions </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol"> <h4>MECHANISM</h4> Scanner Drive The scanner is driven by the scanner motor [D] via the timing belt [C]. For each mode, reading is completed in one pass. Position control of the scanner carriage is based on the scanner HP sensor [A]. <img src="https://todaynetnews.com/uploads/ricoh/ricoh-mp-c2004-c2504-service-manual/part21/Image_020.gif" alt="image" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Operation Flowchart Overall Flowchart <img src="https://todaynetnews.com/uploads/ricoh/ricoh-mp-c2004-c2504-service-manual/part21/Image_021.gif" alt="image" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Scanner Carriage Storage Control To protect the scanner carriage, the carriage must be locked to the scanner frame before shipping. The scanner can be moved to the shipping lock position with SP4-806-001 (Scanner carriage storage operation). If pre-shipping check is required, make sure to move the scanner carriage to the right position with SP4-806-001 and mount the locking parts. SC121-00 will occur when the power is turned on or scanning takes place while the carriage is locked. Document Size Detection Detailed Descriptions In this MFP, for document size detection, two reflecting sensors are used for the sub scanning direction, and a CCD is used for the main scanning direction. Sub scanning direction The document size is detected by ON/OFF of the sensor. The pressure plate open/close sensor is used for document size detection timing. When the pressure plate open/close sensor has changed from "no cover" to "cover," the size is detected. Main scanning direction RGB color densities at 3 locations (S1, S2, S3) are detected by a CCD, and when any of the RGB densities is 12 digits or more, it is determined that a document is present. The pressure plate open/close sensor is used for document size detection timing. When the pressure plate open/close sensor detects "no cover," the scanner lamp is moved to the right; when it detects "cover," the scanner lamp is moved to home position while lit, and during this time, the size is read. <img src="https://todaynetnews.com/uploads/ricoh/ricoh-mp-c2004-c2504-service-manual/part21/Image_022.gif" alt="image" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <table

The TD sensor (also called the <img src="https://todaynetnews.com/uploads/ricoh/ricoh-mp-c2004-c2504-service-manual/part21/Image_075.jpg" alt="image" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> sensor) is used to measure the toner density in the developer. Outline of the ID Sensors The ID sensors are fixed onto the main frame, against the surface of the transfer belt. Color registration is checked by all three sensors; the front [A], center , and rear [C]. The center sensor acts as an ID sensor and a MUSIC sensor. <img src="https://todaynetnews.com/uploads/ricoh/ricoh-mp-c2004-c2504-service-manual/part21/Image_076.gif" alt="image" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Outline of the TD sensor In this model, a non-contact toner density (TD) sensor, which we also call a mu <img src="https://todaynetnews.com/uploads/ricoh/ricoh-mp-c2004-c2504-service-manual/part21/Image_077.jpg" alt="image" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />) sensor, is used for toner density control. The TD sensor is attached on the lower side of the development unit. Unlike a HST sensor, the board of the TD sensor is exposed. So there is a cover around the sensor to protect it and to maintain a good contact between the sensor and development unit. The TD sensor measures the permeability of the developer without contacting it, from the outside of the case, and converts the measured value to the toner density. According to the toner density measured by this sensor, the proper amount of toner is supplied to the developer. A counter corresponding to the frequency is used as the unit of TD sensor output. Thus, unlike a HST sensor which directly detects Vt, the TD sensor output is converted into Vt for toner supply control. In the TD sensor, there is an ID chip storing the machine identification information, the running distance information of development unit and PCU, and other information used by image density control.
