Reference

Even if the KipStar8000 is on printing with the roll media fed from one drawer, it is possible to
open another drawer and install the roll media without interrupting to print.
However, it is not necessarily allowed to open any drawer.
We do not allow you to open a certain drawer in the following cases.

1. When the roll media is fed from that drawer.


2. Roll media is not fed from that drawer but another roll media fed from a different drawer
is passing through in that certain drawer.

See the following section diagram.


Media feeding paths from each Roll Deck is integrated into one path in the middle drawer.
When the KipStar8000 is printing with the roll media fed from the Roll Deck 1, for example, it is
allowed to open only the bottom drawer.
(“in use” Indicators for top and middle drawers will light orange in this case to forbid you to
open them.)

3.1 Characteristic of Toner
The toner used for KIP8000 Printer has a characteristic to be charged “negative” (like a negative object),
which tends to be attracted to a relatively “positive” object.

Suppose that there are objects A and B, and the situation is as follows.

1. Electric potential of the object B is higher than that of object A.


2. Toner exists on the object A.

Comparing the potential of both objects, it can be said that the object B is relatively “positive” and the
object A is “negative”. (In another word, object B is more “positive” than the object A.)
As the toner is “negative”, it is attracted to the object B which is more “positive”.
If you move the object B close to the object A, therefore, the toner moves onto the object B.

Object A with low potential A


(Relatively negative) A A
Toner moves from A to B.

Object B with high potential B B


B
(Relatively positive)

On the contrary, suppose that the toner exists on the object B of which electric potential is higher than
the object A.
Even if you move the object A close to the object B, the toner continues to stay on the object B because
negative toner and relatively negative object A repel each other.

Object A with low potential A


(Relatively negative) A A
Toner stays on B.

Object B with high potential B B


(Relatively positive) B

Thus, the toner has a characteristic to move from one place with a lower potential to another place with
a higher potential.
If we properly control the electric potentials, therefore, it is possible to move the toner from one place to
another as we intend, or it is also possible to remove the toner from unwanted place.
KIP8000 Printer controls the electric potentials properly working each part as Drum, Corona Units,
Lamps, Developer Unit and Cleaning Roller.
The movement of toner is controlled correctly and several processes as Development, Toner Transfer,
Drum Cleaning and etc. are performed.

Reference
When the printer is going to stop after printing, or when the used Roll Deck is changed with
other one, the KIP8000 Printer will make “Toner Collection Process” to take back the remained
toner into the Developer Unit until it starts next print job.
Refer to [3.4 Toner Collection Process] on the page 3-19 for the detail.

3.2.1 Erasing (Removal of negative electric charges)
As the first step of print cycle, it is necessary to remove the negative electric charges from the Drum,
which has remained there after the former print cycle.
The Drum has a characteristic to lose the negative electric charges if it is exposed to the light.
So the Drum is rotated and evenly exposed to the light from the Eraser Lamp.
The electric potential on the Drum becomes 0V by this process.

3.2.2 Drum Cleaning (Removal of remained toner)
Some amount of toner was not transferred onto the printing media but remained on the Drum in the
former print cycle.
This remained toner will be removed by the Cleaning Roller.
The Cleaning Roller is supplied with +800V (+/-3V), and the potential of Drum is 0V at this time
because the Eraser Lamp has removed the electric charges in the former “Erasing” process.
As the Cleaning Roller is relatively “positive” and the Drum is “negative”, the toner moves from the
Drum to the Cleaning Roller.

NOTE
If too much toner exists in a small area (like a trace of solid black image) the Cleaning Roller
may not be able to remove all of them.
But this toner is removed from the Drum in the later Development Process.

3.2.3 Charge of Drum
The Image Corona discharges negative electric charges which are given to the Drum.
The surface of Drum is charged with -820V evenly as a result, which corresponds to the white area of
the printed image pattern.
Voltages (Current) supplied to the Image Corona Wire and the Grid Plate are as follows.

3.2.4 Exposure
According to the printed image pattern, the LED Head throws infrared light onto some part of Drum
which corresponds to the black area of printed image pattern. As the Drum has a characteristic to lose
the negative electric charges if it is exposed to the light, this part of Drum surface loses the charges and
its potential becomes about -50V. (This potential is not constant but is variable by the environment.)
The other part of Drum surface, which was not exposed to the light from the LED Head, keeps -820V of
potential that was given by the Image Corona.
An invisible electric image pattern consists of -820V area and -50V area is formed on the surface of
Drum as a result. (This is called “Electrostatic Latent Image”.)

diameter of toner is much smaller than that of 1 pixel of LED.
You do not have to worry because the electric charges on the Drum are surely removed.

3-7 K77sm3e1 (Ver. H.0)


3.2.5 Development
The Development Roller, which is evenly covered with the toner, is contacted to the Drum because the
Developer Unit is pressed to the Drum side. (The width of contact point is about 5mm.)
The Development Roller is supplied with -250V (+/-3V) during print cycle.
And both -820V area and -50V area exist on the Drum because the Electrostatic Latent Image has
been formed in the former Exposure process.
Seen from the voltage of Development Roller (-250V), the -50V area on the Drum is relatively “positive”.
So the toner moves from the Development Roller to the -50V area of Drum.
On the other hand, the -820V area is relatively “negative” seen from the Development Roller. So the
toner does not move to the Drum but stays on the Development Roller.
A visible toner image is formed on the Drum as a result.

Even if some toner was not removed by the Cleaning Roller but remained on the -820V area of Drum
(It corresponds to the white area of the print) in the former [3.2.2 Drum Cleaning], this toner is removed
at the time of Development because it moves to the Development Roller of which potential (-250V) is
higher than Drum (-820V).
So there will be no case that unnecessary black spot is printed on the white area of the print.
The remained toner moved to the Development Roller is carried into the Developer Unit and then
reused.

1. Toner remained on the Drum


2. Toner moves from the Drum to the Development Roller.
3. Development Roller carries the toner toward the Toner Supply Roller
4. Toner Supply Roller carries the toner to the inside of the Developer Unit.
5. Toner is reused.

Reference

(1) The Developer Unit has not only the Development Roller but also 2 more rollers inside
which are also supplied with the individual voltages.
The Developer Unit controls the movement of toner in the unit taking advantage of the
difference of potentials among these rollers, and covers the Development Roller with the
toner in the end.
Refer to [3.3 Controlling the Movement of Toner in the Developer Unit] on the page 3-15
to know how the Developer Unit controls the movement.

(2) The print image tends to become lighter if the temperature inside machine is colder.
Even if the temperature is cold, however, it is possible to avoid the light image if the
voltage of the Development Roller (Developer Bias) is low.
The voltage actually provided to the Development Roller varies according to the
temperature therefore.
You will specify each Developer Bias Level for the cold situation (10oC or colder) and for
the hot situation (20oC or hotter) in the Service Mode.
Provided Bias is constant and its value follows the specifications in the Service Mode if the
temperature is 10oC or colder or 20oC or hotter.
Between 10oC and 20oC, the Developer Bias is automatically calculated considering the
Developer Bias Levels specified in the Service Mode, and its value gets lower if the
temperature is colder.
With the factory default, -300V is specified for 10oC or colder, and -250V is specified for
20oC or hotter.

3.2.6 Pre-transfer LED
The potential of non-toner area of the Drum is still -820V after the Development.
If we take the next Transfer Process with this state, it is very difficult to separate the printing media
from the Drum and causes a jam as the media is strongly attracted to this -820V area by the static force.
To reduce the static force before the Transfer Process, the Pre-transfer LED throws light onto the Drum
to remove the negative electric charges from the non-toner area.
The potential of non-toner area is increased from -820V to -80V (This potential is not constant but is
variable by the environment.) by this process.

3-11 K77sm3e1 (Ver. H.0)


3.2.7 Transfer
The printing media is charged positively as the Transfer Corona discharges positive electric charges
from under the media.
The toner existing on the -50V area on the Drum will move to the printing media because the potential
of the media comes to be higher than the Drum by the Transfer Process.
The voltage supplied to the Transfer Corona Wire is as follows.

Transfer Guide Plate Transfer Corona

Reference

The Transfer Guide Plate, which exists before the transfer point, is grounded through the
Varistor to keep only the necessary amount of positive electric charges while dismissing over
charges to the ground.

1. If the Transfer Guide Plate is directly grounded, the positive electric charges given to the
printing media will escape to the ground through the Transfer Guide Plate.
As the printing media is not enough charged positive, much toner remains on the Drum
not being transferred onto the media.
The image looks very light in this case.

2. If the Transfer Guide Plate is floated from the ground so as to block the escape route of
the positive electric charges, it collects too much positive charges because the Transfer
Corona exists nearby it.
As the Transfer Guide Plate is strongly charged positive, it attracts the toner floating
inside the machine.
This toner attracted onto the Transfer Guide Plate will cause the dirt on the back of the
print.

3-12 K77sm3e1 (Ver. H.0)


3.2.8 Separation
The printing media is attracted to the Drum after the Transfer because the potential of media is positive
and that of Drum is negative (about -50 to -80V).
It is necessary for avoiding the jam to separate the media from the Drum by removing the static force
between them.
The Separation Corona takes AC discharge being supplied with the AC voltage (11KVp-p) and the
DC voltage (-250V for plain paper, -300V for tracing paper and -10V for film). Negative charges are
generated more than positive ones by the compensation of the DC voltage (-250V), which mainly
results in removing the positive charges of the printing media.
On the other hand, the Separation Lamp throws light from under the Corona Wires to remove the
negative charges of the Drum.
The static force between the printing media and the Drum is reduced as a result, and the media is
separated from the Drum by its weight.

Negative charges of the Drum are removed


by the light from the Separation Lamp.

NOTE
With the factory default setting, the Separation Lamp will not light if you use a film.
But the printed image may not be so clear if you use some special type of film.
You may be able to sharpen the image if you make the Separation Lamp light even in this
case.
It is possible to change the ON/OFF setting of Separation Lamp for film in the Service Mode
(Or User Mode).
Please refer to the following pages

3.2.9 Fusing
After Transfer / Separation Processes, the printing media is transported to the Fuser Unit by the Inner
Transportation Unit.
The Fuser Unit mainly consists of the Fuser Roller and the Pressure Roller. The Fuser Roller is very hot,
and the Pressure Roller is strongly pressed to the Fuser Roller by the spring.
The toner is firmly fused onto the printing media by the heat and the pressure when the media passes
through between these rollers.

3.3 Controlling the Movement of Toner
in the Developer Unit
There are 3 kinds of rollers called “Development Roller”, “Regulation Roller” and “Toner Supply Roller”
in the Developer Unit.
Each roller is supplied with its own voltage.
In the following list, the voltage of the Development Roller (-250V) is measured against the ground.
The other voltages mean the difference against the voltage of Development Roller.

Name of roller Supplied voltage Supplied voltage


(Against the ground) (Against the voltage of Development Roller)
Development Roller -250V +/-3V -
Regulation Roller (Center) - -500V +/-3V
Regulation Roller (Both sides) - -100V +/-3V
Toner Supply Roller - +365V +/-3V

NOTE
The Regulation Roller is divided into central area and both sides area by the insulator, and
individual voltages is supplied to each area.

Reference

The print image tends to become lighter if the temperature inside machine is colder.
Even if the temperature is cold, however, it is possible to avoid the light image if the voltage of
the Development Roller (Developer Bias) is low.
The voltage actually provided to the Development Roller varies according to the temperature
therefore.
You will specify each Developer Bias Level for the cold situation (10oC or colder) and for the
hot situation (20oC or hotter) in the Service Mode.
Provided Bias is constant and its value follows the specifications in the Service Mode if the
temperature is 10oC or colder or 20oC or hotter.
Between 10oC and 20oC, the Developer Bias is automatically calculated considering the
Developer Bias Levels specified in the Service Mode, and its value gets lower if the
temperature is colder.
With the factory default, -300V is specified for 10oC or colder, and -250V is specified for 20oC
or hotter.

The voltages for Toner Supply Roller, Regulation Roller (center) and Regulation Roller (both
sides) are decided taking the Developer Roller voltage as a standard.
If the Developer Roller voltage varies according to the temperature, therefore, these voltages
also vary same degree.

Taking advantage of the difference of potentials among these rollers, the movement of toner is
controlled in the Developer Unit as follows.

1. The Toner Supply Roller carries the toner toward the Development Roller.

2. The voltage of the Toner Supply Roller is 500V lower than that of Development Roller.
When the toner reaches the contact point of these rollers, therefore, it moves onto the
Development Roller.
Then the Development Roller carries the toner toward the Regulation Roller.

3. The Regulation Roller is strongly pressed to the Development Roller by the spring, and these
2 rollers move to the opposite direction each other at the contact point.
Even if the Developer Roller carries more toner than required, the Regulation Roller limits the
amount of toner that can pass through between 2 rollers. So very small amount of toner can pass
through between rollers and the rest is returned back to the inside.
As the voltage of Development Roller is 100V higher than that of Regulation Roller (Center), the
toner which has passed through between these rollers is firmly attracted to the Development
Roller.
Very thin layer of toner is evenly formed on the surface of Development Roller as a result.

4. Much toner sticks onto the Regulation Roller when it is returned back to the inside.
This toner is scraped off by the Scraper which is contacted to the Regulation Roller.

5. Both sides of the Regulation Roller have higher potential than the Development Roller as the
voltage of Regulation Roller (both sides) is 365V higher than that of Development Roller.
When the toner reaches the contact point of these rollers, therefore, it moves onto the Regulation
Roller.
The side areas of the Development Roller are not covered with the toner as a result, so it is
possible to avoid the toner drops into the machine from the side.

3.4 Toner Collection Process
As explained in [3.2.2 Drum Cleaning] on the page 3-5, the Cleaning Roller is supplied with +800V to
remove the remained toner from the Drum during the print cycle.
This toner gathered by the Cleaning Roller is returned to the Developer Unit in the following 3 cases.

(1) When the printer has finished printing out all the accumulated print jobs and then going to stop.
(2) When the used roll media is ended and changed with another one.
(3) When the used roll media if changed from one to another because the print size specified in the
job is different.

This process to return the toner is called “Toner Collection Process”.


When the trailing edge of the last sheet passes over the Separation Area, the printer will take the Toner
Collection Process as follows rotating the Drum for 2 revolutions.

1. The Eraser Lamp throws light onto the Drum to remove the negative electric charges from the
Drum. The potential of Drum becomes 0V.

2. The voltage supplied to the Cleaning Roller is changed to -500V in the Toner Collection Process.
As the potential of Drum becomes higher than that of Cleaning Roller, toner on the Cleaning Roller
moves onto the Drum.

3. The voltage supplied to the Development Roller is also changed to +350V (+/-3V) in the Toner
Collection Process.
As the potential of Development Roller becomes higher than that of Drum, toner on the Drum
moves onto the Development Roller.
Then the toner is carried into the Developer Unit by both the Development Roller and the Toner
Supply Roller.

4.3.2 Checking & Adjustment of HVP1
(For Image Corona)
The standard value of current supplied from the HVP1 is -2.0mA +/-0.05mA.

Check and adjust the HVP1 in the following way.

1) Remove the Drum from the machine for the safety.


You may damage the Drum if you do not remove!

2) You need to connect the multi-meter to “OUTPUT MONITOR” pins on the HVP1.
Connect the “+” cable of the multi-meter to the “+” pin, and connect the “-” one to the “COM.” pin.
And then, select the DC volt range on the multi-meter.

4.3.3 Checking & Adjustment of HVP3
(For Transfer Corona)
The standard values of current supplied from the HVP3 are as follows.

For plain paper 1.4mA +/-0.02mA


For tracing paper 1.4mA +/-0.02mA
For film 1.4mA +/-0.02mA

It is impossible to check the intensity of Transfer Current supplied from the HVP3 with a multi-meter.
If you have a DC Current Meter and connect it directly to the HVP3, however, it is possible to check.

CAUTION
It is very dangerous to check the Transfer Current because you need to connect the DC
Current Meter directly to the HVP3.
For the safety, put a thick insulation pad such as urethane form under the DC Current Meter,
and also use a high voltage lead wire.

Check and adjust the HVP3 in the following way.

1) Remove the Drum from the machine for the safety.


You may damage the Drum if you do not remove!

2) Disconnect the connector between HVP3 and Socket for the Transfer / Separation Corona.
Connect the “+” cable of the DC Current Meter to the cable from the HVP3, and connect “-” one to
the cable from the Socket.

(2) Input from Paper Size Sensors (01 to 04)

Input from Paper Size Sensors (for roll media) is shown by the hexadecimal data.

MENU ENTER ONLINE

Hexadecimal data

Convert the hexadecimal into binary if you would like to know the input condition.
Each of 8 digits of binary data is related with size sensors as follows.

Example) When “70” is indicated.

70 01110000
PH5 (Paper Size Sensor Signal 0)
PH6 (Paper Size Sensor Signal 1)
PH7 (Paper Size Sensor Signal 2)
PH8 (Paper Size Sensor Signal 3)
PH9 (Paper Size Sensor Signal 4)
PH10 (Paper Size Sensor Signal 5)
PH11 (Paper Size Sensor Signal 6)
Not used (This is always “0”)

“0” means “Paper is detected”, and “1” means “Paper is not detected”.
Therefore, PH5, 6, 7 and 8 detect the paper (ON) while PH9, 10 and 11 do not detect (OFF).

Reference
It is possible to check whether the size sensor is broken or not in this mode.
Supposing you use the A0 roll (841mm wide) of the 2nd Roll Deck then check the input
condition.
If “50” is indicated, PH9 may be broken because it means “0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0”.
(“40” will be indicated if the PH9 works properly, which means “0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0”)

NOTE
The arrangement of sensors of the Roll Deck 1 is different from that of other decks.
The indicated hexadecimal data of Roll Deck 1 will be different from that of other decks
therefore.
Please refer to the explanation on and after the next page so as not to misunderstand that the
sensor is broken.

(3) Input from Cut Sheet Size Sensors (05)

Input from Cut Sheet Size Sensors is shown by the hexadecimal data.

MENU ENTER ONLINE

Hexadecimal data

Convert the hexadecimal into binary if you would like to know the input condition.
Each of 8 digits of binary data is related with size sensors as follows.

Example) When “F0” is indicated.

F0 11110000
PH31 (Detecting 11”)
PH32 (Detecting A4S & 12”)
PH33 (Detecting A3S & 17”)
PH34 (Detecting 18”)
PH35 (Detecting 22”)
PH36 (Detecting A2S & 24”)
PH37 (Detecting A1S, 30”, 34” & 36”)
Not used (This is always “1”.)

“0” means “Paper is detected”, and “1” means “Paper is not detected”.
Therefore, PH31, 32, 33 and 34 detect the paper (ON) while PH35, 36 and 37 do not
detect (OFF).

Reference
It is possible to check whether the size sensor is broken or not in this mode.
Supposing you set the A1S cut sheet media (841mm wide) on the Bypass Feeder then check
the input condition.
If “90” is indicated, PH35 may be broken because it means “1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0”.
(“80” will be indicated if the PH35 works properly, which means “1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0”)

(5) Special Paper Size Setting (Item No.04)

This is a mode to make it possible for the printer to recognize such special paper size as 900mm,
891mm and 880mm. (Sensor “SZDATA0” is used to detect these special sizes.)
Selectable setting values are “900”, “891” and “880”.
These special roll papers must be installed in the Roll Deck 1 because only it is corresponded to
such special size.
The contents of setting values are as follows.

Setting value Contents


900 If you set a special width of roll paper on the Roll Deck 1, the printer will
recognize it as 900mm wide roll.
891 If you set a special width of roll paper on the Roll Deck 1, the printer will
recognize it as 891mm wide roll.
880 If you set a special width of roll paper on the Roll Deck 1, the printer will
recognize it as 880mm wide roll.

NOTE
Only the Roll Deck 1 has the sensor (SZDATA0) between SZDATA5 (For A0) and SZDATA6
(For 36”) to detect 900mm, 891mm and 880mm wide roll media, while other roll decks has it
between RP_SET (For A3) and SZDATA1 (For A2) to detect B3 roll media.

(Items No.09, 0A & 0b)

In the items No.09, 0A and 0b, it is possible to change the setting conditions of both [Standard Print
Mode] and the [Special Print Mode], either of which can be selected in the User Modes 8, 9 and A
according to the necessity.

Each 09, 0A and 0b has its own target of setting as follows based on the type of media.

Item No. Target of setting


09 You can change the setting conditions of [Standard Print Mode] and [Special Print
Mode] applied when you print with a plain paper.
0A You can change the setting conditions of [Standard Print Mode] and [Special Print
Mode] applied when you print with a tracing paper.
0b You can change the setting conditions of [Standard Print Mode] and [Special Print
Mode] applied when you print with a film.

Selectable setting values in each mode are “0” or “1”, and the contents are as follows.

Setting value Contents


0 You can change the [Standard Setting Value] of each setting item included in
Adjustment Mode 0 and Adjustment Mode 1.
1 You can change the [Special Setting Value] of each setting item included in
Adjustment Mode 0 and Adjustment Mode 1.

[Detailed explanation]

There are many setting items in both the Adjustment Mode 0 (Sub Mode No.4) and the Adjustment
Mode 1 (Sub Mode No.5 : Refer to page 8-81 and after.).
Normally you are able to specify only 1 setting value in each setting item, which is called [Standard
Setting Value].
However, there are many setting items in which you are able to specify not only [Standard Setting
Value] but also 1 more setting value which is called [Special Setting Value].
The following list shows just some examples of setting item that are able to have both [Standard Setting
Value] and [Special Setting Value]. (All items are related with plain paper in this example.)

Item Contents of setting Standard Setting Special Setting


No. Value (Example) Value (Example)
Adjustment Mode 0 10 Fuser temperature (PPC) 170 190
(Sub Mode No.4) 1C Transfer corona current (PPC) 242 265
1F DC component for Separation Corona (PPC) 319 310
33 Fuser Motor speed (Roll 1 /PPC /Large size /0 to 2m) -10 -07
Adjustment Mode 1 0C Image placement (Roll 1 /PPC /Large size) 11.0 9.5
(Sub Mode No.5) 3C Length of trailing margin (Roll 1 /PPC /Large size) 11.0 10.0
6C Length of image (Roll 1 /PPC /Large size) 0.05 -0.15

[Standard Setting Value] normally means the factory setting value.


It has been specified to each setting item before shipment so as to produce the best print quality if only
the user follows our usage specification.
If you select the [Standard Print Mode] in User Modes 8, 9 and A, all of [Standard Setting Values]
become effective and print operation obeys them.

[Special Setting Value] means the setting value specified to each setting item by the service personnel.
In case the user can not follow our usage specification sometimes or always (paper is too thick or too
thin, temperature or humidity is too high or too low, and etc.), the print quality may be not satisfactory if
you print with the [Standard Print Mode].
8-48 K77sm8e5 (Ver. H.0)
Please specify the [Special Setting Value] to the necessary setting items optionally in this case, so as to
produce a satisfactory print quality even in such special usage condition.
If you select the [Special Print Mode] in User Modes 8, 9 and A, all of [Special Setting Values] become
effective and print operation obeys them.
(Same value is specified as [Standard Setting Value] and [Special Setting Value] at the time of
shipment.)

NOTE
(1) It is possible to change not only the [Special Setting Value] but also the [Standard Setting
Value] optionally in these setting items No.09, 0A and 0b.
But we do not recommend you to change the [Standard Setting Value] as it is the best
factory setting.
If it is necessary to change, please change the [Special Setting Value] as far as possible.

(2) To use these Items No.09, 0A and 0b effectively, you need to know how to specify the
[Standard Setting Value] and the [Special Setting Value] on each setting item, and also
you need to know which setting item is available to specify both setting values.
Please refer to [Operation] on and after the page 8-50 to know how to specify [Standard
Setting Value] and [Special Setting Value].

Reference

Normally the KIP8000 Printer makes 400 times of image exposure against the vertical
direction as its resolution is 400DPI. Image pixels created by this normal timing is called
[Main Pixel].
When a certain image pattern (like a diagonal line) is printed, however, the KIP8000 will make
additional image exposure between Main Pixels only for the vertical direction. This additional
image exposure is completed within a very short time. The image pixel created by this process
is called [Supplemental Pixel].

Normal image pattern In case of a certain


image pattern

Main Pixels
Supplemental Pixels
Main Pixels

Supplemental Pixels are provided so as to fill the space between Main Pixels.
When we compare a vertical / horizontal 1 dot line and a diagonal 1 dot line, for example, the
diagonal one looks not clear and not smooth although the vertical / horizontal one looks clear
and smooth.
This is because the diagonal line has a wider space between Main Pixels than the vertical /
horizontal one.
If this space is filled with the Supplemental Pixel, diagonal line comes to look smoother and
clearer.

No Supplemental Pixel Supplemental Pixels are provided.

Item No. Target Roll Deck


C2 Roll 1
C3 Roll 2
C4 Roll 3
C5 Roll4

[Detailed explanation]

If you print with a thick (new) roll media and a narrow (near empty) one, the lengths of trailing margin
may be a little different between 2 printouts. This is because the diameters of these roll media are
different. Generally, the trailing margin will be shorter if you print with a narrower roll media.

Thick roll media Narrow roll media

Difference of trailing margin

In the items from C2 to C5 it is possible to make the trailing margin always even regardless of the
diameter of roll media.
You can select the best level of compensation by changing the setting value.
See the next page.

8-73 K77sm8e5 (Ver. H.0)


The diameter of roll media is divided into 8 levels as 8/8 to 1/8 (Level is decided according to the clock
sent from the Paper Feed Clock Sensor.). 8/8 is the thickest (like a new roll media) and 1/8 is the
narrowest.
When the compensation is done, bigger compensation is done (namely longer trailing margin is
provided) for narrower level.
And also, bigger compensation is done if you select a larger setting value. (If you select “0”, no
compensation is done.)

Diameter Level Amount of compensation


of roll media Setting value : 0 Setting value : 1 Setting value : 2 Setting value : 3
8/8 0.0mm 0.0mm 0.0mm 0.0mm
7/8 0.0mm +0.2mm +0.4mm +0.6mm
6/8 0.0mm +0.4mm +0.8mm +1.2mm
5/8 0.0mm +0.6mm +1.2mm +1.8mm
4/8 0.0mm +0.8mm +1.6mm +2.4mm
3/8 0.0mm +1.0mm +2.0mm +3.0mm
2/8 0.0mm +1.2mm +2.4mm +3.6mm
1/8 0.0mm +1.4mm +2.8mm +4.2mm

Amount of compensation
Trailing margin is same.

NOTE
The best amount of compensation differs according to the thickness of paper.

If the KIP8000 does not receive any print job or copy job for the time decided in this mode, it will
go into the Warm Sleep Mode to save the power consumption.

Reference

The purpose of Warm Sleep Mode is to reduce the power consumption by falling down the
temperature of Fuser some degrees.
The temperature of the Fuser Unit is about 180 degrees centigrade when the KIP8000 is
ready. But if no print job or copy job is sent for a long time, it is better for saving the power to
fall down the temperature of Fuser. (Temperature is kept about 145 degrees centigrade.)

The Warm Sleep Mode will be cancelled automatically if only you send a print job or a copy
job from the outer device.
However, please understand it takes some minutes to recover from the Warm Sleep Mode

go into the Cold Sleep Mode to save the power consumption.

Reference

The purpose of Cold Sleep Mode is to reduce the power consumption by shutting off to supply
the power to the Fuser Unit.
It can save more power than Warm Sleep Mode.
The temperature of the Fuser Unit is about 180 degrees centigrade when the KIP8000 is
ready. But if no print job or copy job is sent for a long time, it is best for saving the power to
stop supplying the power to the Fuser Unit completely.

The Cold Sleep Mode will be cancelled automatically if only you send a print job or a copy job
from the outer device.

If you print some sheets continuously with enlarging the image area, the image on the trailing
edge of former sheet tends to be printed weakly on the next sheet. (It is called “ghost image”.)

If you select the Enlargement Setting 1, the interval between prints becomes longer and the
printer makes a special process to remove the ghost image during this interval.
Although the print productivity (sheet / time) is reduced, you can get a better print quality.

If you select the Enlargement Setting 2, the interval is as usual and the printer does not make
the special process.
Although the ghost image tends to appear, large number of prints can be finished earlier.
