Transfer Unit and Imaging Units. The HVPS also provides connections for the Front Door
Interlock that disables +24V when opened, the Waste Toner Container Full, and Detect
Hall-effect sensors.
HVPS Imaging Outputs
LVPS
The LVPS supplies AC power from the power source to the Fuser heater. Generates and
supplies stable low-voltage DC power (+5 VDC, and +24 VDC) to be used for the logic and
other circuits within the printer. The LVPS includes the LVPS Board with attached Power
Switch, the AC Harness, a Fan, and the box enclosure.

1.3 Solenoids and Clutches
A number of solenoids and clutches are used to actuate various gates and rollers. The figure
below shows the position of all the solenoids and clutches in the Print Engine.
***** Use the “Motor Clutch Test” in chapter 2 to test Solenoid - Clutch operation*****

1.4 Motor Assemblies
The following illustration shows the location for all the printer’s motors.
Imaging Unit Drive Motors
The Imaging Unit Motors drive the Imaging Unit drums, toner Agitation Bars and Agitation
Gears. Imaging Unit drive varies depending on the print mode. In addition to the developing
components, the Cyan Imaging Unit Motor uses an Up / Down mechanism to raise the CMY
Imaging Units during monochrome printing. When the Cyan Imaging Unit Motor rotates
(CCW), the Up / Down Mechanism slides to the left and, as indicated in the figure below,
each Imaging Unit moves down for color printing. When the Cyan Imaging Unit Motor
rotates (CW), the Up / Down Mechanism slides to the right, the CMY Imaging Units move up
for black and white printing.
* Use the “Motor Clutch Test” in the Service & Troubleshooting Guide to test Motor operation*

Transfer Unit Motor
The Transfer Unit motor turns clockwise driving the Transfer Unit belt. Inside the Transfer
Unit are four Transfer Rollers located just under each Imaging Unit drum. When the Transfer
Unit Motor and Imaging Unit Motors are activated, they carry the paper on the transfer belt
to the Fuser. The voltages applied to the Transfer Rollers attract the toner image from the
Imaging Unit drum to the media.
***** Use the “Motor Clutch Test” in Chapter 2 to test Motor operation*****
Toner Motors
The CM and YK Toner Motors are mounted above the Imaging Unit Motors and drive the
Toner Cartridge Supply Augers and Agitation Springs to deliver toner to the Imaging Units.

Duplex Drive Motors
Two motors are used to capture and transport paper in the Duplex Unit. Duplex Motor A
drives the Entrance Roller CCW to capture paper, then CW to drive the media into the
Transport Rollers. Motor B uses a series of belts to drive the four Transport Rollers that
move media to the Registration Assembly.

1.5 Machine Assemblies
Waste Toner Recovery
Waste toner recovery moves the toner collected from the Imaging Unit drums and Transfer
Unit belt to the Waste Toner Container located at the front of the printer. Driven by the
Waste Toner Motor, separate Augers in the Waste Toner Manifold and Waste Toner Duct pull
toner through a tube to the Waste Toner Container. Waste toner is moved within the
Container by another Auger driven by the Waste Toner Motor.
Status of the Waste Toner container is monitored by the Engine Control Board. The Engine
Control Board receives count signals from the Waste Toner container Auger Rotation Sensor
located behind the Right Front Cover. This Hall-Effect sensor is activated each time a small,
magnetic disk, embedded in the Container auger gear, passes in front of the sensor. The
auger revolutions are converted into a life count.
Waste Toner Container detect Switch detects the presence of the Waste Toner
Container.
Waste Toner Container Full Sensor detects when the Waste Toner Container is full.
Waste Toner Container Auger Rotation Sensor detects revolutions of the Container
auger.
Waste Toner Auger Rotation Sensor detects revolutions of the manifold auger.
Waste Toner Motor drives augers in the Waste Toner Manifold, Waste Toner Duct,
and Waste Toner Container.
***** Use the “Motor Clutch Test” in Chapter 2 to test Motor operation*****

Eject Assembly
The Eject Assembly uses rollers, solenoids, sensors, and diversion gates to handle media exiting
the Fuser.
Eject Assembly components include:
Exit Gate - The Exit Gate switches the paper path. When the Exit Gate is in its
resting position, paper is fed to the Top Output Tray. When it is lowered by
the Exit Gate Solenoid, paper is fed to the Side Output Tray or Duplex Unit.
Exit Gate Solenoid - Switches the paper discharge path between the Top and
Side Output Trays.
Side Output Tray Full Stack Sensors - These sensors use an actuator to detect
when the Top or Side Output Tray is full.
Fuser Exit Sensor - The Fuser Exit Sensor detects whether paper remains in
the output rollers.
Door Detect Sensor - Detects whether the Door is open or closed.
Side Output Tray Detect Sensor - Detects whether the Side Output Tray is
open or closed.
Offset Home Position Sensor - The Offset Home Position Sensor detects the
roller position.
Job Offset Trailing Edge Sensor - Detects the trailing edge of the media as it
leaves the Eject Assembly.
Exit Rollers - Driven by the Fuser Motor, the Exit Rollers transport media from
the Fuser through the Eject Assembly.
Duplex Gate - Actuated by the Duplex Gate Solenoid in the Duplex Unit, the
Duplex Gate directs media through the upper portion of the Duplex Unit and
returns it to the Registration Assembly for printing on side 2.
