Operating Principles Overview 14

2.1 Overview

This Chapter describes the operating principles of the mechanism and electric circuits

of EPSON Stylus PHOTO RX600/610, RX620/630.

Stylus PHOTO RX600/610, RX620/630 mainly, basically consists of a printer and a

scanner. The mechanism can be divided into the printer and the scanner. The electric

circuit includes the Main Board circuit, Power Supply Board circuit, scanner carriage

circuit and control panel circuit.

2.2 Mechanism

2.2.1 Printer Mechanism

The printer mechanism comprises the Carriage carrying the print head, the CR Motor

for driving the carriage in the lateral direction in the printing range, the Capping Unit

for preventing the print head from drying, the PF Motor for transporting the paper, the

ASF Unit for loading paper by the driving force from the PF motor, and the Paper Eject

Unit for ejecting the paper after printing.
