SERVICE TRAINING MANUAL

IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICES

PREVENTION OF PHYSICAL INJURY

1. Before disassembling or assembling parts of the copier and peripherals,

make sure that the copier power cord is unplugged.

2. The wall outlet should be near the copier and easily accessible.

3. Note that some components of the copier and the paper tray unit are

supplied with electrical voltage even if the main switch is turned off.

4. If any adjustment or operation check has to be made with exterior covers

off or open while the main switch is turned on, keep hands away from

electrified or mechanically driven components.

5. The inside and the metal parts of the fusing unit become extremely hot

while the copier is operating. Be careful to avoid touching those

components with your bare hands.

HEALTH SAFETY CONDITIONS

1. Never operate the copier without the ozone filter installed.

2. Always replace the ozone filter with the specified one at the specified

interval.

3. Toner and developer are non-toxic, but if you get either of them in your

eyes by accident, it may cause temporary eye discomfort. Try to remove

with eye drops or flush with water as first aid. If unsuccessful, get medical

attention.

OBSERVANCE OF ELECTRICAL SAFETY STANDARDS

1. The copier and its peripheral must be installed and maintained by a

customer service representative who has completed the training course

on those models.

-- CAUTION --

2. The RAM pack has a lithium battery which can explode if handled

incorrectly, replace only with same RAM pack. Do not recharge, or burn

this battery. Used RAM pack must be handled in accordance with local

regulations.

SAFETY AND ECOLOGICAL NOTES FOR DISPOSAL

1. Do not incinerate the toner cartridge or the used toner. Toner dust may

ignite suddenly when exposed to open flame.

2. Dispose of used toner, developer, and organic photoconductors

according to local regulations. (These are non-toxic supplies.)

3. Dispose of replaced parts in accordance with local regulations.

MAJOR DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE FT4220/4222 AND FT4418/4421 SERIES

The FT4220/4222 were developed based on the FT4418/4421.

The following table shows the major differences between the FT4220/4222 and the

FT4418/4421 series.

not in use.

The energy saving ratio can be

changed by SP mode.

The automatic energy saver

mode is selected by SP mode.

2Toner Supply

Unit Initial

Setting (SP63)

The toner supply unit initial

setting (SP63) is not required.

For the color development unit

installation, SP63 must be

performed as for the FT4418

series.

SP63 must be performed to

prevent toner end from being

falsely detected because the

toner supply unit is empty.

Pigeon series.

The differences from the FT4418

series duplex unit are as follows:

The duplex unit for the Pigeon

series cannot be installed on the

FT4418 series.

1) A projection is added to

actuate all the paper size

switches.

2) Duplex front cover

3) Duplex main board

(Communication signal between

the duplex and copier main

boards is different from the

FT4418 series.)

4) A ground wire is added to the

duplex frame in order to absorb

electrical noise.

The duplex unit for the FT4418

series cannot be installed on the

Pigeon series.

the FT5733 and FT4727 series.

The expected yield is increased

to 80K copies.

The expected yield is 60K copies.

increment is changed as the

drum changes.

Over 2,000 copies --40 volts

Optics

11st Scanner The configuration of the main

and sub reflectors is changed.

The proportion of the light

reflected from the main and sub

reflectors is almost 50% each.

Under this condition, both the

lead and trail edges of the

pasted parts of an original will

not make shadows. This

mechanism is the same as for

the FT4727 series.

The light intensity reflected from

the main reflector is stronger

than that reflected from the sub

reflector (about 65% to 35%).

2Dirty

Background

Copy

To prevent the dirty backgrounds

on copies caused by dust

accumulated on optics parts, the

following items are modified.

----

1) The toner shield glass is

removed and a green color filter

is installed on the lens unit.

2) VLcorrection is added. The

exposure voltage increases at

set intervals of the machine on

time.

3Drum Wear

Correction The interval of the exposure

lamp voltage increment is

changed because the drum is a

new type.Same as FT5733/4727.

FT5733 drum cannot be used in

FT4418 due to diffrences in

drum wear correction.

4Green Filter A green filter has been added

before the lens, to enable red

originals to be copied with

greater contrast.

----

5Scanner Motor

Drive Circuit The scanner motor drive circuit

is located on the ac drive board.

The main board sends the

control signal to the scanner

motor drive circuit to regulate the

scanner motor speed.

The main board directly controls

the scanner motor.

Development

1Bias Voltage in

ADS mode The number of base bias voltage

levels corresponding to the ADS

output voltage is increased (6

levels).

This change will minimize the

possibility of dirty background

copies with the various originals.

This change also helps to

prevent dirty background copies

caused by dust accumulated on

the exposure glass, 1st, 2nd,

and 3rd mirrors.

Unit Set Sensor No Yes

Toner Density Detection And Toner Supply

1Black Toner

End Detection The ID sensor is used for black

toner end detection.

The black development unit for

the Pigeon series cannot be

used for the FT4418 series.

The toner end detection for the

color toner is the same as that of

the FT4418 series.

The toner end sensor is used for

both black and color toner end

detection. The ID sensor is used

as a back-up system

2Black Toner

End Recovery If the front cover is opened and

closed, or the main switch is

turned off and on in the near end

and toner end conditions, no

copy can be made.

For the color toner, only one

copy can be made (same as for

the FT4418 series).

Only one copy can be made in

black and color.

Paper Feed

1Paper Size

Detection in

2nd and 3rd

Feed Station

The paper size switches are

actuated by a paper size

detection block. To change the

paper size, it is necessary to set

the paper size detection block of

the paper tray to match the

paper size.

When the paper end guide is

pushed against the paper stack,

the actuator plate slides into

position and actuates the

appropriate paper size switches.

22nd and 3rd

Paper Feed

Roller

To achieve 22 CPM from the 3rd

paper feed station, the stop

angle of the paper feed roller is

changed.

To prevent the corner of the feed

roller from hitting the paper stack

when the paper tray is pulled

out, the corner of the paper feed

roller is cut.

----

3Corner

Separators on

Paper Tray

To reduce the occurrence of dog

ear and double feed, the shape

of the corner separators on the

paper tray is changed.

----

4Tray Lock

Solenoid No

U7 is displayed when the duplex

unit is opened during the duplex

operation.

Yes

Others

1RAM Clear To prevent false RAM clear, the

following items are modified. ----

1) To minimize electrical noise,

the main board is secured by

four ground screws.

2) Optional equipment is on the

main board.
