Chapter 2 6) The two laser beams pass through the collimator lens and the cylindrical lens to strike the four-sided mirror, which is rotating at a constant speed. 7) The laser beam reflected by the four-sided mirror focuses on the photosensitive drum passing through the focus lens and the reflective mirror at the front of the four-sided mirror.
Chapter 2 2.3.2 Controlling the Laser Activation Timing 2.3.2.1 Laser emission control 0018-3095 LBP3370 / LBP3310 The laser emission control controls the laser diodes (LD1, LD2) to turn ON/OFF at constant light intensity according to the VIDEO signals (VDO1, /VDO1, VDO2, /VDO2) from the video controller.
Chapter 2 /BDO Unmasking area 0 mm 0 mm F-2-5 1) The shaded area indicates the area an image can be written by the laser beam. 2) T1 indicates the area of left /right outsides 0 mm of letter sized paper despite a paper size is specified or not. 3) T2 indicates the area of 2 mm behind the leading edge of the paper (where the /BDO signal starts to output) to the trailing edge.
Chapter 2 Engine controller PCB Video controller PCB Laser/scanner unit J801 J201 /BDI BD sensor IC201 +24VA +24VA J812 Scanner driver IC /ACC Frequency Integrated Drive comparator circuit circuit /DEC Reference clock Divider X201 Scanner motor F-2-6 2.3.4.2 Scanner motor speed control 0018-3101 LBP3370 / LBP3310 The scanner motor is 3-phase DC brushless motor unified with the hole effect device and it is unified with the drive circuit.
Chapter 2 When the engine controller receives print command from the video controller, it drives the main motor in order to rotate the followings: photosensitive drum, de- veloping cylinder, primary charging roller, transfer charging roller and pressure roller. The primary charging roller allows the surface of the photosensitive drum to charge evenness negative. At the same time, the laser beam, modulated by the VIDEO signals (VDO1, VDO2, /VDO1, /VDO2), is emitted onto the surface of photosensitive drum in order to format the latent image on the drum by the laser diode.
Chapter 2 5. Photosensitive drum cleaning block Clean the residual toner on the photosensitive drum. Step 7: Drum cleaning 2.4.1.3 Electrostatic latent image formation block 0018-3106 LBP3370 / LBP3310 This block consists of two steps and forms an electrostatic latent image on the photosensitive drum. When the last step in this block is complete, a negative electrical charge is remained in the unexposed drum surface area by the laser beam and it is removed from the exposed area.
Chapter 2 Blade Photosensitive Stirrer drum Cylinder Developing cylinder Magnet AC bias DC bias F-2-12 The exposed area on the photosensitive drum is indicated positive in figure despite of the fact that the actual potential on the drum is negative. This means that the potential of the photosensitive drum is higher than that of the cylinder relative to the potential of the cylinder.
Chapter 2 roller of this printer interlocks the photosensitive drum in order to improve the image quality. Step 5: Separation Photo- sensitive Paper drum Static charge eliminator Transfer charging roller F-2-15 A print paper is separated from the drum by its elasticity. (Curvature Separation) The static charge on the back side of a print paper is decreased with the electrostatic eliminator after the transfer process in order to stable the feeding operation and prevent the crescent spots of printing image under the L/L environment.
Chapter 2 2.4.2 High-Voltage Control 2.4.2.1 Outline 0018-3112 LBP3370 / LBP3310 The high-voltage power supply circuit generates the high-voltage required for the image formation. It consists of the primary charging bias circuit, the developing bias circuit, and the transfer charging bias circuit. The primary charging bias circuit generates the negative DC voltage and AC voltage.
Chapter 2 The developing bias (DV) is generated according to the DEVELOPING AC BIAS DRIVE signal (DVACC) output from the CPU. The DVACC signal is a clock signal to generate the AC bias and the developing AC bias is generated according to this signal. The developing DC bias is generated according to the developing AC bias generated in the developing AC bias generation circuit.
Chapter 2 ENGINE CONTROLLER PCB PS915 PS915 Registration shutter PS914 Separation F-2-19 M1: Main Motor SL1: Cassette pick-up solenoid SL2: Manual feed solenoid SL3: Reversing solenoid 2.5.2 Detecting Jams 2.5.2.1 Jam Detection Outline 2.5.2.1.1 Outline 0018-3122 LBP3370 / LBP3310 This printer is provided the following paper detection sensors to detect the presence of the paper and weather the paper feed is operated normally or not. 1: Top of page sensor (PS912) 2: Delivery sensor/Reversing sensor (PS915) The CPU determines a paper jam by checking whether the paper is present at the sensor or not at the checking timing.
Chapter 2 2.5.2.2 Delay Jams 2.5.2.2.1 Pick-up delay jam 0018-3123 LBP3370 / LBP3310 The printer performs the retry control, which executes pick-up operation twice, in order to relief the pick-up delay jam caused by pick-up error. When the top of page sensor (PS912) cannot detect the leading edge of the paper within approx. 2.4 sec. (1.9 sec. for the MPT, 3.0 sec. for the optional cassette) after when the pick-up solenoid (SL1) is turned ON, the CPU retries the pick-up operation twice.
Chapter 2 2) When the initial rotation gets ready (Note), the cassette pick-up solenoid (SL1) turns ON for approx. 0.15 sec. Accordingly, the rotation of the main motor is transferred to the pick-up roller to be rotated. 3) The print paper is at the position to be picked up by the lifting plate, which pushed up according to the spring force. One print paper is picked up by the pick-up roller rotation and fed into a printer.

Chapter 2 2.7 ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM 2.7.1 Video Controller 2.7.1.1 Outline 0018-3144 LBP3310 The video controller receives print information from an external device (e.g., host computer) through an interface cable. The print information includes the CAPT command used to communicate printer status and unique information and dot data, which is the result of conversion of resource type print data by the host computer. The dot data is sent to the engine controller for control of the activation of the laser diode.
Chapter 2 F-2-24 2.7.1.3 Overview 0018-3146 LBP3370 The video controller receives print information from external devices (e.g., host computer) through interface cables. Such print information contains commands used to exchange printer status and unique information as well as PDL data. The PDL data is converted into a display list by the display list generation circuit, and turned into bitmap data for output to the DC controller.

Chapter 2 2.8 FIXING UNIT/DELIVERY SYSTEM 2.8.1 Overview/Configuration 2.8.1.1 Outline 0018-3136 LBP3370 / LBP3310 The fixing/delivery unit fixes the toner onto a print paper and delivers it to the delivery tray. The operation of the fixing/delivery unit is explained in the following. 1) The print paper fed from the pick-up/feed unit is fused the toner by the fixing film and the pressure roller.
Chapter 2 2.8.2 Various Control Mechanisms 2.8.2.1 Fixing Temperature Control 2.8.2.1.1 Fixing temperature control 0018-3137 LBP3370 / LBP3310 The fixing temperature control detects the surface temperature of the fixing heater. It controls the drive signals of the fixing heater and maintains its temperature at the targeted temperature.
Chapter 2 Paper type selected for driver Fixing target temperature Heavy paper 2 210 to 200 deg C Transparency 190 to 185 deg C Envelop 205 to 195 deg C Label 210 to 200 deg C 3) Between-sheets temperature control This control maintains the temperature of the fixing heater below the normally targeted temperature during the continuous printing in order to prevent the temperature rise of betweensheets.
