Safety Information
To prevent accidents during a maintenance procedure, strictly observe the Warnings and Cautions and never depart from the instructions given in this document.
Do not do anything that is dangerous even if not specifically described in this manual.
In addition to the descriptions below and those given in this manual, there are many situations and circumstances that could result in serious bodily injury.
Always pay enough attention to secure safety when working with the printer.

Power Supply
Before starting any service procedure, turn the printer off and unplug the power cord
from the wall outlet. If you need to work on the printer with power applied, such as
voltage measurement, strictly follow the instructions in this manual and use extreme
caution to avoid an electric shock.

W A R N IN G

If you need to work on the printer with power applied, never


touch any electronic components other than the target
component.
The power supply switch/inlet part (MAIN POWER SWITCH
& INLET) is live even after the power switch is turned off. Use
extreme caution not to touch the live part when working on the
printer with the power supply cable connected.
Do not touch any live part unless instructed to do so.

Leg_001_002RA

Mechanical Components

High Temperature Assembly

When servicing any driving assembly (e.g., gears), first turn the power off and unplug
the power cord. Then manually rotate the assembly.

When working with hot parts (FUSER etc.) make sure to turn the power off, unplug the
power cable, and leave the printer until it cools down sufficiently to work on it to
prevent burn injury.

W A R N IN G

Do not touch the driving part (e.g., gears) while the assembly
(printer) is operating.

W A R N IN G

As the inside of the printer is high-temperature state immediately


after the operation, leave it more than 30 minutes before working.

Caution Label
(Refer to Caution Label About High-temperature Surface)

FUSER Unit

Leg_001_022RA

Laser Beam
W A R N IN G

Letting a laser beam get into your eye directly could result in

Caution Label
(Refer to Caution Label About High-temperature Surface)

loss of vision.

Never open the Cover where the Warning Label About Laser
Beam is affixed.
Before disassembling or assembling, be sure to turn the power
off.
If you need to work on the printer with power applied, strictly
follow the instructions in this manual.
Understand hazardous nature of the laser beam, use extreme
caution to avoid injury of yourself and anyone around you.

C H E C K
P O IN T

The laser beam has a narrower frequency band and more


coherent phases than any other light (sunlight, electric light).
The beam has excellent monochromaticity and convergence,
thus it reaches long distances. Because of these characteristics,
the laser beam converges into one point, causing high density
and high temperature. And that is why a laser beam is harmful
to the human body.
The laser beam in this printer is invisible.

ROS ASSY

Leg_001_003RB

Warning label for Laser Beam

Warning/Caution Labels
Warning labels and caution labels are attached on the corresponding locations on or in
the printer.

C H E C K
P O IN T

The label is attached on the top of the laser beam emitting unit (ROS ASSY) to
alert the service personnel the danger of laser beam.
(Refer to Laser Beam)

In maintenance work, check that the labels are free from peeling
and soiling.

Caution Label About High-temperature Surface


The labels are attached on the Fuser assy and the perimeter alerting the user to
avoid burn injury.
(Refer to High Temperature Assembly)

Cautions relating to Toner cleaning

Cautions relating to Storage of Paper

To prevent ignition, explosion, burn, injury, etc., do not use a general vacuum
cleaner for cleaning dropped toner. (To do so may cause the toner to catch fire by
sparks in the vacuum cleaner.)

W A R N IN G

Do not pick up dropped toner with a general vacuum cleaner. To


do so may cause ignition.

Leg_Sec001_014EA

To achieve the appropriate printing results, unused paper that is stored outside of the
unit should be sealed up by packing material or put into a plastic bag to prevent it from
becoming moist.

Safety Devices
Use extra care when checking or servicing the safety devices (e.g., interlock switches,
fuses, thermostat). The printer's cover, control panel and any other parts which are
directly related to the user's safety should also be observed carefully.
As the major safety devices, the printer is equipped with the following four interlock
switches:

SWITCH ASSY TOP


SWITCH-INLK FRONT
SWITCH-INLK FUSER

SWITCH-INLK FUSER

SWITCH ASSY TOP

When any one of the above interlock switches turns off, +24VDC supply to the
motors and solenoid is cut off. The SWITCH ASSY TOP turns off when the
COVER ASSY TOP is opened. The SWITCH-INLK FRONT does when the
COVER FRONT ASSY U is opened, and the SWITCH-INLK FUSER does when
the COVER FUSER is opened.

FUSER LOCK SWITCH

FUSER LOCK SWITCH

The FUSER LOCK SWITCH turns off when the latch lever of the FUSER ASSY
is released, then AC power supply to the Heater of the FUSER ASSY is cut off.

(sec.)

Cycle Down

To keep the image density at target level.

When the number of printed copies (pages) becomes 20 (by both continuous or
intermittent printing) after performing the ADC, the printer performs another
ADC when the current job is finished.

Cycle Up

To correct the toner density

1. The printer performs the ADC if the SENSOR HUM & TEMP detects that the 45*1
temperature and humidity in the printer are under the following conditions at
power-on or when returning from the low-power mode.
20 degrees C/85% to 32 degrees C/42% or more
2. The SENSOR HUM & TEMP detects the temperature and humidity inside the
printer at power-on. The detected condition is compared to the condition
detected at the previous power-off, and if the difference is as shown below, the
printer performs the ADC.

2. When the printer is turned on for the first time after purchase, it does the same
operation as described above so that the toner spread evenly in the developers.
(By the rotary rotation while performing continuous black

W printing, is moved along the spiral of the Auger (The
Auger of the developer for colors do not rotate during black

switching mode to the mode relating to the failured part. Errors ohter than the
initialzation errors allow to switch mode and continue operating without displaying
the error message (depends on the mode selected). If the error disables some
operation, the error message is displayed when the operation is selected.
If scanner error occurs, copy, fax and scan modes become invalid.(Receiving fax is
available). An error caused by Twain is displayed. If printer error occurs, copy and
print modes become invalid. Fax errors disables the fax mode and receiving fax also
becomes unavailable. System errors are indicated as Cxxxx Service Req (service
call error), and disables the whole operation. However, when the engine related
service call error (Exxxx) has occurred, functions except printer operation can be
used.

2.2 Printer Section Operating Principle


This section describes printer functions and operating principles of AcuLaser CX11/
CX11F.

2.2.1 Print Process


2.2.1.1 Print Process Overview
This printer is a "full color laser printer" that uses the principle of electrophotographic
recording. The printer contains a drum that forms toner images by four colors of toner
"Yellow, Magenta, Cyan and Black (simply called YMCK from here on)." The toner
image of each color is formed on the drum, and the toner images formed on the drum is
transferred to the Belt (secondary transfer roller). Full color printing is performed by
overlaying each of the colors on the belt.
The major steps of the print process are described below.
(1)

Charging

: The drum surface is charged.

(2)

Exposure

: Image areas are exposed on the drum by a laser beam.

(3)

Developing

: Image areas on the drum are developed with toner.

(4)

Primary transfer

: The toner image on the drum is transferred to the Belt.

(5)

Cleaning

: The drum is cleaned.

(6)

Repeat

: In the full color mode, steps (1) to (5) are repeated for
each toner.

(7)

Secondary transfer : The toner image on the Belt is transferred to the


paper.

(8)

Discharging

: The electrical charge of the paper is removed.

(9)

Cleaning

: The Belt is cleaned.

(10) Fusing

2.2.1.3 Technical Explanation of Print Process


CHARGING
At the "Charging" process, BCR (Bias Charge Roll) applies a uniform negative
potential to the drum which rotates at a fixed speed.
BCR keeps contact with the drum and moves together with it.
BCR is a conductive roller, that is negatively charged by HVPS, applies a negative
charge to the drum.
The drum surface is uniformly charged to a negative potential with DC bias
voltage.
The drum is made of conductive material (aluminum cylinder) coated with a
photosensitive material which becomes insulating material in darkness and
becomes conductive when it is subjected to light.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Printer Section Operating Principle

86

EPSON AcuLaser CX11/CX11F

Revision C

EXPOSURE
At the "Exposure" process, a laser beam is applied to the negatively charged surface of
the drum to form an invisible electrostatic latent image onto the drum.
The laser beam is emitted from a laser diode in the ROS ASSY, and directed by
the polygon mirror, fixed mirror and lens of the Scanner Assy in the ROS ASSY.
A single laser beam is output from the laser diode.
The laser beam is irradiated according to the print data (image data) from the
printer controller. The laser beam is output only when a pixel data (minute dot
composing the print data) exists. (On parts to be developed by toner, the laser
diode turns ON, and on parts not to be developed, the laser diode turns OFF.)
The drum surface irradiated by the laser beam becomes a conductor, the negative
charge on the drum flows to the positive side, and the potential on the surface of
the drum is reduced in the result. The section of the drum surface where the
potential has reduced becomes the electrostatic latent image.

Revision C

DEVELOPING
At the "Developing" process, toner is electrically applied to the invisible electrostatic
latent image on the drum, to form a visible image on it.

This printer uses two developing systems: a "rotary developing system" that
successively rotates four Developer Assys, and a "trickle developing system" that
uses developers composed of two components, a carrier and toner.
Developer in the Developer Assy is stirred by a spiral-shaped stirrer called
"Auger", and is supplied to the Magnet Roll located near the drum surface. The
developer is charged by the friction of stirring (toner: negative charge, carrier:
positive charge), and the charges are electrically attracted each other.
As the carrier is a magnetic body, it is attracted to the magnetized Magnet Roll,
and a uniform layer of carrier is formed on the Magnet Roll by passing through a
Trimmer Blade.
A minus voltage is applied to the Magnet Roll together with AC voltage from the
HVPS.
As the electrostatic latent image on the drum that is formed by exposure is charged
positively compared to the other sections on the drum, the toner charged
negatively on the Magnet Roll is attracted only to the image sections on the drum.

Figure 2-9. Development Process (1)

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Printer Section Operating Principle

88

EPSON AcuLaser CX11/CX11F

Revision C

Toner in the Developer Assy is consumed as the number of prints increases. To


maintain the appropriate development density, the equivalent amount of consumed
toner must be replenished to the Developer Assy from the Toner Cartridge. This
replenishment is called "toner dispense."
Two types of control ("PCDC" and "ADC") are used in combination for toner
dispense.
To obtain a full color image by the four toner colors, a toner image for each of the
Y, M, C and K colors must be formed on the drum.
On this printer, four Developer Assys are located at 90 degree intervals on the
circumference of the Rotary Frame Assy, and by rotating the Rotary Frame Assy,
the Developer Assy of each color is made to face the drum on which the toner
image of each color is formed. This is called the "rotary developing system".

The charging characteristics of the carrier is depleted due to dirt caused by the
toner or due to scratches caused by stirring.
To maintain charging characteristics, a minute amount of carrier is mixed into the
toner in the Toner Cartridge. While toner and carrier are supplied during toner
dispense, depleted carrier in the Developer Assy is collected in a separate chamber
in the Toner Cartridge. This is called the "trickle developing system". Trickle
developing is performed using the rotation of the Rotary Frame Assy during rotary
developing.
The following shows the mechanism of trickle developing.
(1) A pipe is inserted into the carrier in the Developer Assy.
(2) A minute amount of carrier is put into the pipe.
(3) The carrier is skimmed and move farther into the pipe.
(4) The carrier is collected to inside the Toner Cartridge.

PRIMARY TRANSFER (DRUMBELT)


At the Primary transfer process, the toner image formed on the drum surface is
transferred to the Belt surface in Photoconductor Unit by 1st BTR (First Bias Transfer
Roll).
The 1st BTR is a conductive roller, and is positively charged by the HVPS. The 1st
BTR contacts the back side of the Belt and charge the back side to positive.
The negatively charged toner image on the drum surface is attracted to the positive
charge on the back side of the Belt, and is transferred to the Belt from the drum.

CLEANING (DRUM)
At the "Cleaning (drum)" process, residual toner is removed from the drum surface.
Cleaning the drum
Toner that was not transferred to the Belt at the "Primary transfer" process remains
on the drum surface. Since the remaining toner hinder subsequent processes, it is
scraped off by a Cleaning Blade that contacts with the drum, and is collected in the
Waste Toner Box.

Revision C

SECONDARY TRANSFER (BELTPAPER)


At the "Secondary transfer" process, the complete toner image formed on the Belt
surface is transferred to paper by the 2nd BTR (Second Bias Transfer Roll).
The 2nd BTR comes in contact with the Belt only when transferring the image to
paper to prevent the toner image formed on the Belt surface from being destroyed.
Normally, the 2nd BTR is located at its home position where is detected by the 2nd
BTR Retract Sensor. And the 2nd BTR Retract Motor moves the 2nd BTR to
contact with the paper.
The 2nd BTR is a conductive roller. It contacts with the back side of the paper (the
opposite side of the side to be printed), and charged positively by the HVPS.
The Back Up Roll, located on the opposite side of the Belt from the 2nd BTR, is a
conductive roller and earthed to the Frame ground.
By positively charging the back side of the paper by the 2nd BTR, the negatively
charged toner image on the Belt is attracted to the paper and the image appears on
the paper.

DISCHARGING

FUSING

At the "Discharging" process, the charge on the paper is neutralized/removed by the


Detack Saw.

At the "Fusing" process, toner is fixed on paper with heat and pressure.

The Detack Saw contacts the back side of the paper. The charge created at the
"Secondary transfer" process is neutralized/removed to prevent the toner from
splattering around the metal parts.
CLEANING
At the "Cleaning (belt)" process, the toner remaining on the Belt surface is removed
after the toner image is transferred to the paper.

Fuser Assy does not have a pressure roll, but has a Fuser Belt instead.
By MOT ASSY FSR drive, Heat Roll rotates and Fuser Belt is driven by the
friction. The inner structure of the Fuser Belt is, as shown in the figure below,
designed to generate a pressure on the Belt and the Heat Roll (Nip Part) to contact
them firmly each other.
The toner melts by the Heat Roll heated by the Heater Lamp in the Fuser Assy, and
then the toner is fixed on the paper by the pressure of the Fuser Belt.

The Belt Cleaner contacts the Belt only when cleaning the Belt to prevent the toner
image formed on the Belt surface from being destroyed. The IBT Retract Motor
moves the Belt Cleaner to contact the Belt.
Toner remaining on the Belt surface is absorbed by the Cleaning Roll. Then, the
toner is absorbed by the brush and collected in the Waste Toner Box.

ADJUSTING THE LEADING EDGE OF THE PAPER


ROLL-REGI METAL

If paper is fed up to the toner transfer section from the tray or cassette without
adjusting the alignment of the paper, the image sometimes cannot be transferred at the
correct position. In the registration section, the leading edge of the paper is aligned to
the correct position by the "Roll Loop" system.
The paper, which has passed through the ROLL ASSY-PRE REGI, is pressed against
the stopped ROLL-REGI METAL by the "Roll Loop" system to make the paper
curved. When the ROLL-REGI METAL is rotated with the paper curved, the paper can
be fed from the ROLL-REGI METAL without displacement.

2.2.5.1 Main Functions


ROS ASSY
ROS ASSY
ROS ASSY (Raster Output Scanner Assembly) is the exposure unit that outputs
the laser beam to make the electrostatic latent image on the drum surface. (From
here on, ROS ASSY is simply called "ROS.")
ROS consists of the components shown in Figure 2-45.

The PWBA LD (Laser Diode) converts the image data (electric signal), to
laser light ON/OFF signals.
PWBA LD constantly monitors the laser light intensity so that laser intensity
stabilizes to the appropriate level when making the electrostatic latent image.
This is called " APC (Automatic Power Control".
The Scanner Assy consists of a Scanner Motor that operates at a fixed speed
and a polygon mirror attached to the Motor's rotary shaft.
The laser beam emitted from the PWDA LD is irradiated on the polygon
mirror.
The polygon mirror has six reflecting mirror surfaces, and the angle of the
reflected laser beam changes by rotation of the Scanner Motor. This lets the
laser beam scan across on the Drum from side to side. The laser beam makes a
single line on the Drum with one reflective mirror.
The laser beam reflected by the polygon mirror passes through the lens,
mirror and window to reach the drum surface. The lens functions to
compensate for aberration, the mirror to ensure an optical path, and the
window to prevent the entry of foreign bodies into ROS.

The timing to start writing image data must synchronize exactly with the
beginning of laser scanning in order to properly form an electrostatic latent
image on the drum surface. When the SOS sensor on the PWBA SOS (Start
Of Scan) receives the laser beam, it converts the laser into an electric signal
(SOS signal) for detecting the initial position (start of scan reference point) for
scanning the various lines.

SENSOR ASSY ADC, SENSOR IBT RETRACT, SENSOR HUM & TEMP, MOT
ASSY P/R, IBT Brush Motor, and IBT Cleaner Retract Motor are installed inside the
printer for control of Photoconductor Unit operation.
Photoconductor Unit

The toner images of each color developed on the drum surface are transferred
to the IBT Belt one color at a time from 1st BTR, and the full color toner
image is formed by overlaying the four colors. The full color toner image is
transferred to paper by positively charging the paper with the 2nd BTR.

Toner remaining on the Belt surface is collected in the Waste Toner Box by
the Cleaning Blade and brush in the Belt Cleaner.

The Drum is made of conductive material (aluminum cylinder) coated with a


photosensitive material which becomes insulating material in darkness and
becomes conductive when it is subjected to light. The Drum Cleaner consists
of a Cleaning Blade and Waste Toner Box, and scrapes off toner remaining on
the drum surface by the Cleaning Blade that contacts with the drum.The
Waste Toner Box contains an actuator for SENSOR TNER FULL. This
actuator operates as the amount of collected waste toner increases to block
light entering the sensor to detect a full toner state.

The 1st BTR is a conductive roller, and is charged positively by the HVPS.
The 1st BTR contacts the back side of the belt to positively charge it.

Specific data relating to Photoconductor Unit is stored in CRUM XERO.

Execution Sequence of TC control


1.

Adjustment of SENSOR ASSY ADC


The SENSOR ASSY ADC has two LEDs, one for black and the other for color. To
read each color's patch density, the light emitted from the LED for black is
reflected directly to the Common light receiving element, and the light emitted
from the other LED for color does diffuse reflection and also received by the
element. The SENSOR ASSY ADC has a built-in solenoid which drives the
shutter of the detection window and the part for switching the optical path to the
reference plate.

2.

Adjustment according to surrounding environment and deterioration of parts


Printed image quality is adversely affected by temperature and humidity that
change daily, and deterioration of the IBT Belt, drum and other parts. For this
reason, parameters are corrected by capturing temperature/humidity data from
SENSOR HUM & TEMP and printer usage data from CRUM.

3.

Creation of toner patches


The output value of HVPS, laser light intensity value, and toner supply amount are
determined from the parameters calculated from various information sources, and
four toner patches, one for each color, are created on the Belt surface.

4.

Figure 2-54. Sensor ADC mechanism

Reading the toner patches


SENSOR ASSY ADC reads the density of the toner patches created on the Belt
surface, and compares the read values with ideal values. When there is a difference
between the read values and the ideal values, the parameters are recalculated and
toner patches are created again.When the printer judges that the toner patches
density is extremely low or high, it performs the following controls.

Admix control
When the patch density that is read by SENSOR ASSY ADC is extremely
low, the toner will be supplied into the Developer. This is called "Admix
control".

Sweep control
When the patch density that is read by SENSOR ASSY ADC is extremely
high, toner is transferred to the drum, and is scraped off in the Drum Cleaner
to forcibly discharge toner in the Developer. This is called "Sweep control".

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Printer Section Operating Principle

118

EPSON AcuLaser CX11/CX11F


5.

Adjustment during a print job


Toner in the HOUSING ASSY-DEVE is consumed as print jobs are processed. To
obtain consistent image quality during printing, toner must be supplied to the
HOUSING ASSY-DEVE. The following control is performed to supply
appropriate amount of toner.

6.

Revision C

PCDC (Pixel Count Dispense Control)


The amount of toner that will be consumed is predicted from the count value
of the image data, that is input from the controller, to control the toner supply
amount to the Developer. The supply amount is controlled according to the
Toner Dispense time.

Adjustment after end of printing


When a total of 20 or more sheets have been printed, the image quality
adjustments in 1) to 4) are repeated after completion of printing.

MOT ASSY MAG

Control of Toner Cartridge


7.

Near-End Detection
Counts the operating time of the Dispense Clutch that operates to supply toner
from the cartridges, and causes a Near-End warning when the counted time
exceeds the prescribed value.

8.

Detection of Empty status


The judgement of the Empty status of Toner Cartridges is made based on toner
patch density values (read by ADC sensor). When toner patch density is extremely
low, the printer executes forced supply of toner (Admix operation), and it judges
that the cartridge is empty if the density of toner patches created after the forced
supply is still low.

9.

Reset of the Empty status


The printer judges that the empty Toner Cartridge is replaced with a new one when
the power is turned off and back on, and the cover is opened and then closed
during the Empty status. Then the printer executes forced supply of toner from the
newly attached cartridge.

fixed CCD Sensor in the scanner unit and allows up to 50 sheets of document (when
the paper basic weight is 80g/m2) to be loaded and scanned automatically. The
documents are scanned in paper feed direction while they are fed by the ADF. The key
mechanisms of the ADF are as follows.

DOC Sensor

: Detects whether document is loaded on the document


tray or not. The document should be loaded with its
leading edge contacting with the guide for it, or the
sensor cannot detect the document.

AS Sensor

: Detects that document is transported to the Separation


Roller after starting scanning operation.The sensor turns
ON when it detects the leading edge of the document,
and turns OFF when it detects the posterior end of the
document. Scanning operation for the next document is
started if the DOC Sensor is ON when the AS Sensor
becomes OFF.

RS Sensor

: Detects whether document is on the Turning Roller or


not. Scanning document is started when the document is
transported by prescribed steps from when its leading
edge is detected by the RS Sensor.

ADF Cover Sensor

: Detects whether the ADF cover is opened or closed. The


sensor turns ON when the ADF Cover is opened and
stops the ADF Motor and turns off the clutch.

PAPER FEED MECHANISM


ADF Motor

: The four-phase pulse motor with 96 poles drives the paper


feed mechanism that transports document loaded on the
document tray to scanning section.

Clutch

: Switches on and off the Pick up Roller by transmitting or not


transmitting the ADF Motor drive. The clutch is turned on to
transmit the motor drive to the Pick up Roller when the DOC
sensor is ON at the point of starting scanning operation.

Pick up Roller

: Picks up document one by one and transports it to the next


mechanism.The roller lowers and contacts with document to
feed it by ADF Motor drive when scanning operation is
started with the DOC sensor ON. When the leading edge of
the document is detected by the RS Sensor, the roller moves
upward to return to its standby position.

Separation Roller

: Located under the Pick up Roller to prevent multi-feed of


documents.

Turning Roller

: Transports document fed by the Separation Roller to the


scanning position. This roller turns at a speed according to
the print resolution so that scanning in paper feed direction
can be performed properly.

Exit Roller

: Transports document that has been scanned and transported


by the Turning Roller to the eject tray. Also changes the
position of the document stopper lever inside the document
tray.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

Document Width Sensor: Detects the positions of the side edge guides on the
document tray. The two Document Width Sensors,
located at the position different from each other, detects
document size (width) by combination action of them as
follows.

Revision C
6. When, for example, P/J1 P/J2 is indicated in FIP for the voltage
check, check for the all relating terminals between P/J1 and P/J2 with
reference to Chapter7 Wiring Connection Diagrams (p.574).

3.4 Printer
3.4.1 Notes on Using FIP
1. The troubleshooting method described here assumes that there is no
malfunction in the printer controller (PWBA ESS). If you cannot fix a
problem even by following the troubleshooting procedure, replace the
printer controller with a normal one and then follow the same procedure. If
you cannot recover the printer from the trouble even with the printer
controller replaced, replace the Possible parts that caused the error
shown in FIP and related parts with new ones in order one by one, and
repeat operation checks.
2. Some normal parts such as MCU, LV/HVPS, FUSER ASSY, 2ND BTR
ASSY may be required as FIP troubleshooting tools to identify the cause of
the trouble. So, you need to have those spares in advance.
3. Be sure to unplug the POWER CORD before starting troubleshooting work
except when turning power ON is needed. Never touch any live parts
unnecessarily with the power cord connected.
4. Conventions used to represent connectors are as follows:
P/J12 = The connector (P/J12) in a connected state.
P12 = The plug side in connector (P/J12) disconnected state.
(except when the jack is directly mounted on the board)
J12 = The jack side in connector (P/J12) disconnected state.
(except when the jack is directly mounted on the board)
5. When, for example, P/J1-2PIN P/J3-4PIN is indicated in FIP for the
voltage check, set the plus side of a measuring tool to 2PIN on P/J1
and set the minus side of the tool to 4PIN on P/J3.

TROUBLESHOOTING

7. Taking P/J1-2PIN P/J3-4PIN as an example, the minus side P/J34PIN is AG (Analog Ground), SG (Signal Ground), or RTN (Return).
Therefore it is possible to connect to another AG, SG, or RTN pin as the
minus side instead of P/J3-4PIN. Before doing so, check that each AGto-AG, SG-to-SG, or RTN-to-RTN has continuity properly. Be careful not
to connect to a wrong pin since the level of AG, SG and RTN are different
from each other.
8. When measuring the voltage, perform measurement with the
Photoconductor Unit, 2ND BTR ASSY, and paper cassette loaded, covers
closed, and power ON.
9. All voltage values given in the FIP are approximate values. So actually
measured values should not be completely the same as those given in the
FIP.
10. Note that FIP does not provide any description on removal of parts which
are supposed to be removed to remove the target part, and the procedures.
11. Any parts listed in Possible parts that caused the error in the FIP are
regarded as the source of the trouble and signifies that the parts or the

Figure 3-4. Printing-quality troubleshooting Entry Chart


The printing-quality troubleshooting described here is based on a condition that the
printer controller has no problems.
However, making a test print with only the engine side, allows you to find out roughly
which side (controller side or engine side) is causing the trouble, except for cases that
cannot be checked by the test print.

Test print with the engine alone is normal Printer controller trouble

Test print on engine alone is abnormal Printer engine trouble

If the probable cause is printer controller trouble, replace with a normal printer
controller and interface cable, and check.
If the trouble recurs after replacing with the normal parts, check on the host side, and
use the printer quality FIPs to perform efficient troubleshooting.

3.4.5.1 Engine Test Print


To check the IOT operation, it is possible to print PWBA MCU built-in sample
continuously without being routed through the controller. If the problem does not occur
on the PWBA MCU built-in sample, the cause of the problem may be controller.
PRINTING METHOD
PWBA MCU
C A U T IO N

The test print cannot be made if an engine-related error has


occurred.

1. Remove the COVER ASSY LH. (p.324)


W A R N IN G

Never touch the energized or driving part when performing the


following procedure.

2. Set paper into MSI and turn the power on.


3. In Ready mode, short-circuit the pad for test print on the PWBA MCU with
a small screwdriver or a similar tool. The pad is located at upper right of
the interface connector .

Table 3-12. Print Quality-related FIP Table

To reliably judge and understand the details of trouble, and perform the correct remedy
efficiently when printing quality-related trouble occurs, make a test print, and use the
FIP tables corresponding to the phenomena.
When trouble cannot be restored by the printing quality-related FIP, check again using
the FIP, and then replace all parts indicated in the ESS and possible parts that caused
the error one by one to check the parts and perform troubleshooting.
The printing quality-related FIPs describe typical troubles as below.

3.4.5.3 Uniformly Spaced Print Troubles (bands, smudges, etc.)


When horizontal stripes and spots appear at fixed intervals, it is highly possible that a
specific roll has caused the trouble. If this happens, you might be able to easily solve
the problem by measuring the interval between the stripes or spots on a test print, and
checking the relationship between the pitches shown in the table below (note that the
pitch does not necessarily match the perimeter of the roller).

4.1 Overview

4.1.1 Precautions
The precautions below (WARNING and CAUTION), must always be followed during
disassembly and assembly.

This section describes procedures for disassembling the main components of the
product. Unless otherwise specified, disassembled units or components can be
reassembled by reversing the disassembly procedure.

W A R N IN G

Procedures which, if not strictly observed, could result in personal injury are described
under the heading WARNING.
CAUTION signals a precaution which, if ignored, could result in damage to
equipment.

Important tips for procedures are described under the heading CHECK POINT.

If the assembly procedure is different from the reversed disassembly procedure, the
correct procedure is described under the heading REASSEMBLY.

Any adjustments required after reassembly of components or parts are described under
the heading ADJUSTMENT REQUIRED.
When you have to remove any units or parts that are not described in this chapter, refer
to the exploded diagrams in the appendix.

DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY

Overview

Disconnect the power cable before disassembling or assembling


the printer. If you need to work on the printer with power
applied, strictly follow the instructions in this manual.
Always wear gloves for disassembly and reassembly to avoid
injury from sharp metal edges.
To protect sensitive microprocessors and circuitry, use static
discharge equipment, such as anti-static wrist straps, when
accessing internal components.
Never replace the fuse on the Power Supply Board in any
circumstances.
Be aware that letting the laser beam get into your eye directly
could result in loss of vision.
Never open any cover on which a Warning Label for Laser
Beam is attached.
Use extreme caution to avoid injury of yourself and anyone
around you with a clear understanding of hazardous nature of
the laser beam.
The Fuser unit and other high-temperature parts remain at
hazardous temperature for a certain period of time even after
stop of operation and turning off of the power. To prevent
suffering a burn, be sure to wait after power turning off until
the temperature of the parts cool down to a safe level, and then
start working on the printer.
To avoid dust explosion or ignition, never bring any
consumables close to flame or throw them into fire.
When developer or oil stuck to your skin or clothes, wipe it off
with a dry cloth carefully and wash it off with water
immediately.

303

EPSON AcuLaser CX11/CX11F

W A R N IN G

Revision C

Be careful not to let the developer or toner get into your eye or
mouth, and not to inhale it. And also care should be taken for
people around you to prevent them from the same thing.
(Spread a sheet of paper inside and around the printer to
prevent soiling.)
Since there are many different screws, use them in correct
positions. Be extremely careful of the difference between the
screws for resin and those for sheet metal. If the screw for resin
is mistaken for the screw for sheet metal, its threads will be
broken, leading to a crushed screw hole or trouble.
Do not pick up the spilt toner with a vacuum cleaner (for home
use). To do so may cause the sucked toner particles to catch fire
by sparks of the electric contacts. If the toner has spilt on the
floor, etc., clean it with a broom or wipe it with a cloth
moistened with neural detergent. If it is necessary to clean a lot
of spilt toner with a cleaner, use a cleaner exclusively designed
for toner.

W A R N IN G

Use only recommended tools for disassembling, assembling or


adjusting the printer.
Apply lubricants and adhesives as specified.
Make the specified adjustments when you disassemble the
printer. (Refer to Chapter5 for details.)

When replacing PWBA MCU with a new one

REMOVAL

The life information of the replacement parts, correction parameters, etc are stored in
EEPROM on the MCU board (PWBA MCU). The EEPROM was mounted in IC
socket of the MCU board on previous models, whereas the EEPROM of this product is
soldered directly on the MCU board and it is quite difficult to replace it. Therefore,
when the PWBA MCU is replaced with a new one, the data in the EEPROM must be
backed-up and re-stored to the EEPROM on the new MCU board.
C A U T IO N

When the printer is turned on after replacing either the PWBA


MCU or the PWBA CRUM, the information that specific to each
printer unit is automatically stored on a memory of replaced
circuit board. Due to this reason, the board becomes unique to
specific printer unit, and the board is no longer usable on
another printer unit. Do not reuse the board that previously
installed on another printer unit.
When replacing the PWBA MCU, verify that the version of
firmware on new PWBA MCU matches the version of previous
PWBA MCU. If not, be sure to make them matches each other
by either upgrading or downgrading the firmware. Make sure to
execute [MCU Data Restore] in the MAINTENANCE menu only
after matching the firmware version.

Revision C

6.1 Overview

W A R N IN G

This chapter provides information necessary for maintaining the AcuLaser CX/CX11F
in its optimum condition.
Before starting the work, be sure to observe the following precautions.
W A R N IN G

To prevent an electric shock, burn, injury, etc., always turn the


product off and unplug it from power outlet before starting
maintenance work.
When the power supply cable must be connected to measure
voltage or for any other task, use extreme caution in working
on electronic components.
While the product is operating, never inspect the drive areas
such as the motor, sprockets and gears.
Since the product is heavy in weight (approx. 25 kg,
consumables not included), two or more personnel are required
to transfer the product. On this occasion, make sure to lay
hands on the specified places.
Special care must be taken to maintain safety devices such as
fuse, INTERLOCK S/W, which are provided to prevent the
product from malfunction and accidents, and also carefully
check the parts such as panel, covers, which are directly
operated by the user.
Do not touch the FUSER ASSY immediately after using the
product, or you may burn your hand. Allow the assy to cool
enough to work with it.
Pay attention to the following when turning the product back
on after servicing.
Be careful not to get your hands and clothes caught up in the
rotating parts (various rollers and cooling fans) of the
product.
Never touch the electrical terminals and high-voltage
components such as the HVPS and LVPS unit.
To avoid dust explosion or ignition, never bring the
consumables close to flame or throw them into fire.

C A U T IO N

MAINTENANCE

Overview

Take extra care not to let the laser beam get into your eye, or it
could cause loss of sight.
While servicing the laser printer, never open any cover on
which a Warning Label for Laser beam is attached.
Understand hazardous nature of the laser beam, use extreme
caution to avoid injury of yourself and anyone around you.
When you need to work on the hot part or unit (Fuser Assy, for
example), make sure to unplug the product from power outlet
in advance, and do not start the work basically until the part or
unit cool down sufficiently to avoid burn injury.
This printer produces a laser beam when the following
conditions are all satisfied.
The printer is in ready status.
The interlock switches are OFF (TOP COVER and FRONT
COVER are closed).
Do not use a general vacuum cleaner to clean spilt toner. To do
so may cause the sucked toner particles to catch fire by sparks
of the electric contacts. If the toner has spilt on the floor, etc.,
clean it with a broom or wipe it with a cloth moistened with
neutral detergent. If it is necessary to clean a lot of spilt toner
with a cleaner, use a cleaner exclusively designed for toner.
Always wear gloves when servicing to avoid injury from sharp
metal edges.
Do not disassemble the Toner Cartridge.
Do not expose the Photoconductor Unit to direct sunlight.
Do not disassemble the ROS ASSY.
Do not touch the onboard components with bare hands to
prevent the ICs and other electrical components from being
damaged by static electricity. (When necessary, wear a wrist
strap.)
To ensure safety and workability, use the specified tools.
Do not turn the product off until all motors stop completely.
Should the printer be transported, use the special packing
material, pallet, etc.
Do not use alcohol, paint thinner, or any other such solvents.

6.5 Consumables and Components needing Periodic Replacement


C A U T IO N

The print page-based service life values of the Consumables and Periodical Replacement Parts are guidelines. The number of printable pages varies
depending on how they are printed. The number of printable pages decreases depending on the intermittent printing (where a few pages, one to several
pages, are printed each time), paper size, paper orientation, thick paper printing, printed document, frequent power-on/off, etc. Hence, the number of
printable pages of the consumables and periodical replacement parts may become less than a half depending on the operating conditions and environment
of the user.

1. DC POWER SUPPLY
Overcurrent Protection
All outputs (+24VDC, +5VDC, +3.3VDC) from LV/HVPS are stopped when
short-circuiting on the way to the earth or ground. Each output is restored by
eliminating the cause of the short-circuit, and turning the printer OFF and then
back ON at specified time interval. The overcurrent protection circuit is activated
when a current exceeds 16A flows.
Overvoltage Protection
All outputs from LV/HVPS are stopped when an overvoltage is detected. The
operating voltages for overvoltage protection of each output are as follows:

+24VDC: 36VDC

+5VDC: 7VDC

7.7.1 List of System Parameter
C A U T IO N

Some of the system parameter settings are restricted according


to the regulations or standards of the country or region. To
prevent those settings from being changed by mistake,
changing system parameter settings that are not described in
this manual is prohibited.
Be sure to observe the specified setting range for the system
parameter. Setting a value out of the range is not guaranteed.
If a malfunction of the fax operation occurs due to the
improper setting, the system parameter should be initialized.
See 3.3.2.1 Memory Clear (p138)

The list of system parameter is given on the following pages.


System (p650)
Print (p653)
Scan (p654)
