35 Improvements

36 Gauguin Improvements 36 reliability improvement items has been incorporated to reduce initial failure. Main measures Image stability (include density evenness) has been improved to reduce image reproduction failure Image noise removal measures has been taken. Paper feed reliability has been improved

37 Gauguin improvements Exposure DPI 2 NEW PH (against jittering) 3 Sealing enhancement Developing 4 Cyclone filter Cleaning 5 CL ability improvement 6 Lubricant application ability improvement 7 Torque improvement Transfer 8 Decrease 2nd transfer pressure for thick paper 9 Intermediate transfer belt reverse rotation control

38 Gauguin improvements Fusing 10 Replacement ability enhancement 11 Fusing temperature optimization 12 JAM timer optimization 13 Idling rotation optimization 14 UI screen enrichment 15 Air separation Drive 16 BK fly wheel change 17 ADU JAM timer change 18 Highly accurate drive

39 Gauguin improvements Stability 19 IDC sensor change 20 Short Dot diameter correction 21 Color stability mode control change 22 Starting up condition change 23 Idling agitation after no-use machine 24 Electrical density adjustment enhancement 25 Simple stabilization control at every 1000 prints FW 26 Avoiding unnecessary SC detection. ADU 27 Thick paper registration loop optimization

40 Gauguin improvements Image processing 28 Exposure light amount optimization 29 Optimize processing 30 Density balance correction 31 Correction according to the paper density detection using sensor on RU 32 Screen optimization 33 Thinning process optimization Charging 34 Charging height accuracy increase 35 Enhance control for drum slight rotation Paper feed 36 Optimization to prevent tearing jam

41 Image Stability Enhanced stability during continuous printing CMYK/RGB E00 3 (Monet-e E00 4) Enhanced color reproduction ability Difference between days E00 6 (Monet-e E00 12) Difference between machines E00 3/ Eab 4 (Monet-e Eab 8)

42 Image Stability Change of detection method to read characteristic fluctuation. Detection device is changed from electrometer to IDC sensor Monet-e use the Drum Potential Sensor to read electrical potential on the Drum surface Gauguin use IDC sensor to read the image patch on the Transfer belt Video

43 Image Stability Adoption of Color density sensor to check printed paper Fluctuating factors such as 2nd transfer and fusing are covered by detecting the color change on printed paper Monet-e Gradation expression matching to the specific paper was impossible. Monet-e has only PGC sensor inside machine and this could not correct the fluctuating factors Calibration using spectral color measurement device (ES-1000 etc) and densitometer (DTP-32 etc) should be performed very frequently. Gauguin Achieve the gradation expression matching output paper characteristic. Avoid influence of fluctuating factor of each unit and achieve color correction with high accuracy. Achieve density evenness. Simplify the correction work.

44 Image Stability Change of IDC Sensor detection is changed from defuse reflection type to spectral reflection type. It enhances ability against belt/toner reflection ratio change.

45 Image Stability Change of screen High resolution with 1200DPI, optimizing screen Divided sensor Enhance robustness against LD light amount fluctuation and beam profile fluctuation Real 1200dpi Development of ASIC with image compression algorism equipped 1200dpi multi-level screen Screen suitable for 1200dpi System optimization Number of boards are decreased. Image memory capacity is optimized

46 Image Stability Change of stabilization conditions Conditions to follow up environment change is reviewed Image stabilization batch correction control It corrects the image density change caused by the change of the materials and process characteristic those are come from unused condition for long period, environmental temperature/humidity change, and large number of continuous printing The TCR sensor process speed correction is a preparation for acquiring the correct value per process speed beforehand to prevent the gap of the toner density control between process speeds. Stabilization control between images It is executed periodically when the stability priority mode is selected Printing job is stopped to correct the image density change and the color change

47 Image Stability Optimization of process speed Density change following to process speed change is improved Monet-e process speed Line speed 1 - standard Line speed 2-150mm/s Line speed mm/s Gauguin - process speed Line speed 2 - standard Line speed 1-315mm/s Line speed 3-225mm/s Line speed mm/s Line speed 5-150mm/s

48 Image Stability Enrichment of D-max adjustment Adjustment width and steps are enhanced (-4 steps => +/- 10 steps) Monet-e Gauguin

49 Image noise removal measures Items C7000 C6501 Details Developing bias (AC) condition Optimized - Quality maintenance considering drum potential sensor abolishment Filter box of cyclone Normal filter box Toner collect amount is system increased due to suction Developing suction power improvement Extension of filter box replacement cycle Developing dust proof filter Provided Not provided For light shielding of write unit Image trouble (white line) prevention Developing fan 2 3 Specification change ORU Relay connector gets bigger Noncompliant Improvement of service performance

50 Image noise removal measures Filter box Suction path The suction path with the cyclonic system provided in the filter box improves the suction power. Toner collect amount is increased by the improvement of the suction power, and the replacement cycle is improved from every 200,000 prints to every 600,000 prints. Video Filter

51 Image noise removal measures Developing dust proof filter For the light shielding of the write unit and the image trouble (white line) prevention, the developing dust proof filter is newly added. Developing dust proof filter

52 Fusing separation ability On Monet-e, fusing wrapping jam is frequently reported. On Gauguin, fusing separation ability is enhanced and jam clearance work ability is improved. Method Thoroughly instruct user for the correct JAM removal UI screen indication Fusing unit replacement ability enhancement Optimize JAM detection timer Air separation Action Develop UI screen indication and add detailed procedure to the User Guide. Provide advise to avoid wrapping jam when jam occurs. (Suggest workaround such as changing image orientation, increase margin at leading edge and paper grain direction). Connections of wirings are changed to drawer type. ( Improvement for ORU replacement ) Stop paper at easy to remove location. Assist to separate paper by providing air blow. Paper Handling ability of fusing unit is enhanced

53 Fusing separation ability Air Air Duct Ai r FAN Video By supplying the air blow, separation ability from the belt is enhanced. Air blow level is adjustable by 7 steps. It can be set according to the paper type (No air blow is not available.) Separation ability is enhanced form Monet-e. However, still some types of paper cannot be fed. Wrinkle and folding may occur on part of paper if printing double sides.

54 Parts life concept on Gauguin Reliability has been enhanced to reduce incidental failure ratio. Control sequence has been reviewed to extend life. Functional limit has been reviewed based on actual life in the field.

55 Control sequence review Reduce 2nd transfer cleaning sequence after image creation. Monet-e:0.99sec/sheet Gauguin:0.18sec/sheet Approx. 82% reduction Shorten image stabilization control Monet-e: 170 sec/day Gauguin: 120 sec/day Approx. 30% reduction
