AR-D17/D18/D19  MACHINE OPERATIONS  4 - 7

The paper is passed to the ADU and transported to the alignment posi-
tion as shown below by driving the ATM (ADU transport motor) in the
forward direction with the ATRC (ADU transport clutch) ON.

The ATM (ADU transport motor) is rotated in the reverse direction to
drive the pressure release slide arm in the arrow direction in the figure
below and to lift the four follower rollers, releasing the roller pressure
from the paper.

By rotating the APAM (alignment motor), the alignment guide F and the
alignment guide R are simultaneously rotated in the arrow direction
and stopped at the paper width positions.

After completion of alignment operation, the ATM (ADU alignment
motor) is rotated in the forward direction, and the pressure release
slide arm is driven in the arrow direction shown in the figure below to
apply a roller pressure on paper. Then the paper is transported and
discharged from the ADU.

When the paper lead edge passes the ADU roller, the APAM (align-
ment motor) is rotated and the alignment guide F and the alignment
guide R are simultaneously driven to the outside (in the arrow direction
in the figure below), waiting for the next paper to be transported.

The figure below shows the timing of each sensor input, motor output,
and clutch output.

AR-D17/D18/D19  ADJUSTMENTS  5 - 1

1) Perform the following key operations of the machine to enter the

print off-center adjustment mode (SIM 50-10).

2) In SIM 50-10, the following display is shown. The print off-center

adjustment value is set for each paper feed tray.

3) Select [G]: ADU with [

↑

] and [

↓

] keys, and change the set value of

the print off-center with the 10-key.

• When the adjustment value of A – G is decreased by 1, the main

scan print position is shifted to the front side by 0.1mm. 

• When the adjustment value of A – G is increased by 1, the main

scan print position is shifted to the rear side by 0.1mm.

(Example) When 45 is set:

4) Select  “[I]: Paper feed tray selection” with [

↑

] and [

↓

] keys on the

LCD panel, and select the paper feed tray with the 10-key.

5) Select “[K]: Duplex print selection” with [

↑

] and [

↓

] keys on the LCD

panel, and select “Duplex print (YES)” with [2] key.

6) When [EXECUTE] on the LCD panel is pressed, a sheet of paper

is fed from the selected paper feed tray, and is transported to the
ADU, performing duplex print.

During paper transistor, [EXECUTE] is highlighted.

7) When self-print operation is completed, the machine is stopped

and [EXECUTE] returned to the normal display.

8) Check the self print output, and repeat procedures 3 – 7 until the

value is in the range of 0 

±

 1.5mm.

When the value is in the above range, press [CA] to cancel the
simulation mode.

1) Perform the following key operations of the machine to enter the

alignment plate adjustment mode (SIM 52-01).

2) In SIM 52-01, the following display is shown, and the alignment

plate adjustment value can be set for each paper feed tray.

3) Select the paper feed tray with [

↑

] and [

↓

] keys on the LCD panel.

4) When [EXECUTE] on the LCD panel is pressed, a sheet of paper

is fed from the selected paper feed tray and transported to the
alignment section in the ADU unit.

During paper transport, [EXECUTE] is highlighted.

5) When paper is transported to the alignment section and alignment

is completed, the machine is stopped and [EXECUTE] returns to
the normal display. Then pull out the ADU unit.
