2.2 Mechanism and Operational Principle

The basic construction and operational principle of the printer are divided into the following blocks for explanation.

* Power Transmission and Paper Feed Mechanism.

* Sensor Mechanism.

* Print Head Mechanism.

2.2.1 Power Transmission and Paper Feed Mechanism.

The drive force of the motor as power is transmitted from the motor gear fixed to the motor shaft to the platen

roller through the platen gear. The platen gear rotates by this driving force.

The platen roller is pressed to the surface of the heating element of the thermal head by the force

of bar-shaped springs connected to both the ends of the roller. When paper is inserted between the platen roller

and thermal head, it is caught between the roller and the head by the rotation of the roller,

and transferred to the paper outlet being linked with the rotation of the platen roller.

2.2.2 Platen Attaching/Removing Mechanism

The platen roller of the printer, part of the paper feed mechanism, is constructed in a way that allows attaching

and removing. The platen roller block is composed of a platen roller, platen gear, platen bushes, and platen guides.

Setting this block on to the U-supports of the chassis, the platen gear engages with the motor gear.

Further, the platen block has come in contact with the thermal head by means of the platen bushes being pressed

by bar-formed springs one end of which is fixed to the chassis.

The platen roller can be attached/removed by hooking/undoing each movable end of the springs to the hook on

the metal fitting on the chassis.

2.2.3 Sensor Mechanism

(1) Paper Sensor

The paper sensor detects the presence/absence of paper

in front of the thermal head. Activation of the thermal

head when paper is not inserted could cause damage or shorten

the life of the head significantly. This sensor is used

to prevent such trouble and for detection of the

presence/absence of paper in the automatic

loading mode.

(The paper sensor is built in the thermal head.)

(2) Paper Near-End Sensor

The paper near-end sensor detects that the remaining paper is low.

The reduced outside diameter of the paper roll (corresponding to approximately 50 cm to 2 m in length of

normal paper) is detected by a sensor provided on the chassis near one end of the paper roll.

The remainder of paper differs depending on paper thickness and core material.

This remainder can not be adjusted.

2.2.4 Print Head Mechanism

A thermal head is used for this printer. The head is composed of the heating element and the head drive

for the drive and control of the element.

(1) Outline of Drive and Control

Serial print data input from DATA IN(D1) are transmitted to

the shift resistor in synchronization with CLOCK(CP),

and stored in the latch resistor by LATCH(LA) signal.

When the gate is closed by the head activation signal

(Print commands STR 1-3), the heating elements

corresponding to the stored print data are activated,

and the data are printed on paper by heat.

(2) Print Data and Print Position

Print data Nos. 1 to 448 of the 448 bits transferred by DATA IN(D1)

are printed on positions shown in the

following figure.

Chapter 3 Dismantling and Assembling

For maintenance, pay attention to the following matters.

Caution

(1) If printer performs well, do not dismantle, reassemble, nor adjust the printer without reasons.

(2) Upon the completion of an inspection, be sure to check the printer again for abnormality before turning on the

power.

(3) Never print without paper inserted into the printer.

(4) Confirm that paper and the platen roller are set normally.

(5) Be careful not to leave parts, screws, or the like used for maintenance work in the printer.

(6) When handling the thermal head, do not use gloves that easily generate static electricity.

(7) In dismantling and assembling the printer, check cords and circuit boards and the like for flaws,

and be sure not to pass nor fix them forcibly.

3.1 Procedure for Dismantling

3.1.1 Remove the printer cover.

(1) Open the printer cover.

(2) Remove the hinge on the one side

with it bent to the inside.

(3) Remove the other hinge.

3.1.2 Remove the upper cover.

(1) Remove the head SP, and remove the platen roller.

(2) Unfasten two M3 x 8 screws.

(3) Lift the aft part of the cover up to remove it.

Then, insert a (-) screw driver or the like to the clearance

between the case and chassis at the locations shown

by arrow marks (1) and (2) on the front side to

remove the hooks that secures the case to the chassis

(4) If the printer is provided with an optional black

mark sensor or paper holder, pull out the connector for

connection with the control circuit board.

(5)Lift up and remove the cover paying attention

to the head SP.
