CHAPTER 2 ORIGINAL EXPOSURE SYSTEM

1 Outline of Operations

1.1 Outline

The major functions of the original exposure system are as follows:

Item

 

Description

Scanning lamp

Xenon lamp

Original Scanning

In book mode: by moving the scanner.

 

With ADF in use: by stream reading while holding the No. 1

 

mirror base fixed in position.

Scanner position detection

By scanner HP sensor (PS400)

Reproduction ratio (zoom)

[1]

Using the Copyboard: 25% to 800%

 

• In main scanning direction, image processing is per-

 

 

formed by the controller unit.

 

• In sub scanning direction, the speed of the No. 1 mirror

 

 

base is changed (50% or higher and lower than 400%),

 

 

in addition, the image data is processed by the control-

 

 

ler unit (lower than 50% and 400% or higher).

 

[2]

Using the ADF: 25% to 200%

 

• In main scanning direction, the image data is processed

 

 

by the controller unit.

 

• In sub scanning direction, the speed at which the origi-

 

 

nals are moved is changed (50% or higher and lower

 

 

than 200%), in addition, the image data is processed by

 

 

the controller unit (lower than 50%and 200% or

 

 

higher).

Scanner drive control

The No.1/No.2 mirror base is controlled by means of a step-

 

ping motor (M400).

Lens

Lens array (fixed in position)

Scanning lamp activation

[1]

Turned on by an inverter circuit.

 

[2]

Monitored for errors.

Original size detection

[1]

In book mode, by a reflection type sensor in sub scan-

 

 

ning direction; by a CCD in main scanning direction.

 

[2]

With the ADF in use, by the ADF.
