2.3.2.1 Reset Circuits

The C162 MAIN Board contains 2 reset circuits: the +5 V monitor reset circuit and the +35 V

monitor reset circuit. The +5 V monitor reset circuit monitors the voltage level of the +5 V line,

using reset IC PST592D (IC12), and outputs a reset signal to the E05A96 gate array (IC2) when the

voltage level drops below +4.2 V. The +35 V monitor reset circuit monitors the voltage level of the

+35 V line, using reset IC M51955B (IC8), and outputs a reset signal to the CPU. The reset signal is

generated when the voltage level drops below +28 V, and this causes a non-maskable interrupt

(NMI).

2.3.2.2 Sensor Circuits

Thefollowing sensor circuits enable the C1 62MAIN Boardto monitor printer mechanism status:

HPsensor The photocoupler-type home position (HP) sensor is attached to the surface ofthe

printer mechanism to detect the carriage home position. A LOW level from the

signalindicates that the carriage is in home position.

PEsensor The mechanical switch paper end (PE) sensor is built into the printer me chanism to

determine whether there is paper in the printer or not. A LOW level from the signal

indicatesthat n o paper is loaded.

BCO sensor,

CCO sensor The cartridge out (CO) sensor is micro switch attached to the bottom of each ink

cartridge holder in the carriage unit. When the ink cartridge is installed, these

switches are pressed and a LOW level from the signal indicates that the ink

cartridge isinstalled into the ink cartridge holder.

Thermistor A thermistor is attached to the color printhead driver board to monitor its

temperature by thermister’s resistance value (at 25°C approx. 10kΩ). The CPU

changes the printhead drive signal’s pulse width (charge pulse width) based on the

temperature level.
