1-1. Product Overview
Product Overview
The new printers introduce updates to the core technologies of current 5-color models. All five colors of
LUCIA TD pigment ink have been newly developed. Also new is the print head, optimized for the TX series,

Chapter 2
and the high-precision mechanical platform, featured in 2016 PRO graphic arts models. Other enhancements
include dual rolls that are easy to load, as well as more robust security. The printers combine the productivity,
usability, and security sought in the high-end CAD inkjet market with the favorable print quality on uncoated
paper and low running costs sought in the entry-level LED plotter market, where the printers will gain share.
In this way, the models target both high-end inkjet and entry-level LED plotter users by offering a viable
alternative that enables us to gain MIF share.

Notes on Servicing
Service mode login
·· When the printer is started up in the service mode, printing other than internal printing (nozzle check
pattern, adjustment patterns, etc.) cannot be performed.
Chapter 2

·· The operations of the functions in the user mode when the printer is started up in the service mode are out
of operation guarantee. To use the functions of the user mode, be sure to start the printer up in the user
mode.

When starting the printer up/turning it off

Chapter 3

Do not disconnect the power cord while starting the printer up and turning it off. (It takes approx. 2 minutes
and approx. 40 seconds respectively to start the printer up and to turn it off).

When executing PCB replacement mode

Some data is not restored even the PCB replacement mode is executed after the main PCB is replaced. For
Chapter 4

details, see 7-3. PCB Replacement Mode.

When using the printer at high altitude

If the printer is used at a high altitude (approx. 2,000 meters or higher), streaks or faint printing may occur
periodically (every two or three months).
Chapter 5

In such cases, occurrence of the phenomenon can be reduced or prevented by System Cleaning at a shorter
interval.
However, System Cleaning consumes a larger amount of ink than regular Cleaning, and System Cleaning at
a shorter interval will consume more ink than at regular interval in total. Consider them when changing the
frequency of System Cleaning.
Chapter 6

How to reset the printer’s media information to default

The method of resetting the media information in the printer to default is to restore the default media
information file*1 (backup file) by using the application software, Media Configuration Tool.
*1
: For details on the default media information file (backup file), refer to the Service Information “QDR-
12E-7029.” (The revised version adding TX series will be issued at a later date).
Chapter 7

For reference:
Examples when the printer’s media information needs to be reset to default:
·· When a user asks how to recover his/her printer’s default media information including customized
media information
Chapter 8

·· To reset the media information of the leased printers

·· To refurbish printers

Paper feed mechanism

Chapter 2
It is the mechanism of loading, feeding and ejecting the roll paper or cut sheet (manual feed).
The feature of this printer is as follows.

· Paper feed:
The paper is fed from the Roll Unit (the Upper Roll Unit and the Lower Roll Unit*) in feeding.
To feed the paper is switched automatically by utilizing the Paper Entry Sensor in the Paper Feed Roller

Chapter 3
part, the Roll Paper Entry Sensor in the upper/Lower Roll Unit, and the active roll brake unit.
In addition, to improve accuracy in feeding the roll paper, the torque in the Active Roll Brake Unit is
controlled.
*: The Lower Roll Unit is the option.

Chapter 4
· Paper ejection:
In addition to ejecting paper to the output stacker, take-up paper ejection to the Lower Roll Unit is newly
adopted. In the take-up paper ejection, the outward and inward take-up paper ejections are available. By
utilizing the Active Roll Unit, the weight is no longer needed.

Chapter 5
▪ Active roll brake unit
Function of the active roll brake unit is as follows.

- To improve roll paper feed accuracy:

Torque change caused by such as the roll paper diameter, the weight, and the slack (caused by the back
tension change) is controlled, and accuracy in feeding the paper is improved in printing.

Chapter 6
- To feed roll paper:
When the roll paper is installed, feeding the roll paper and switching the Upper and Lower Roll Paper is
automatically performed.

- To take-up roll paper:

By monitoring the torque change and rolling up the paper in an appropriate timing, the weight is no
longer needed.

Ink Supply Mechanism

Chapter 1
Ink inside the Ink Tank is supplied to the Print Head through the ink supply tube.
Ink is supplied to the Print Head by utilizing the water-head-difference, or by the negative pressure
generated from the Pump Roller Drive. When ink amount inside the Ink Tank is sufficient, you can replace
the old ink tank with new one without interrupting the printing. In the current models, the initial ink
filling check is executed only for the no-ejection detection units after ink is filled; however, in this printer,

Chapter 2
two kinds of the remaining ink detection pins (detecting ink-full and no-ink in the Sub Ink Tank) are
adopted to this printer. Therefore a mechanism problem at the initial ink filing can be detected in early
stage without wasting ink.

Purge Unit

Chapter 3
To maintain the high quality print, maintenance of the Print Head (cleaning, Capping, wiping) is
performed. The Purge Motor (to drive the purge main cam and pump roller) and wiper blade motor (to
drive the Wiper Blade) are installed.

Carriage Unit

Chapter 4
It fixes the Print Head and ink supply tube, and moves left to right.
To reduce uneven printing, an acceleration sensor is newly adopted to this printer.
In addition, the vibration information from the acceleration sensor is utilized to strengthen the function
which identifies each error (the paper jam error, the overload error and the encoder error).

Chapter 5
Print Head Management Sensor Unit
The nozzle check to detect the non-ejection nozzle in the Print Head is adopted.
The information of the detected non-ejection nozzle is utilized for non-ejection complementary and for
recovery.

Chapter 6
Print Head:
It receives the print signal from the main PCB, and ink from the ink supply unit is ejected.

Maintenance cartridge:
It collects ink ejected from purging and pre-printing ejection in the Purge Unit.
If the amount of collected ink recorded to the memory in the maintenance cartridge is exceeded than
Chapter 7

specified amount, an error occurs and operation is stopped.

Chapter 3
Chapter 4
Chapter 5
Paper separation and paper feed:
When the roll paper is rotated by the Active Roll Brake Motor, leading edge of the roll paper is separated by
the separation flapper (the paper set sensor detects separation of the roll paper). To feed the roll paper, the
Spool Unit is rotated while the paper is nipped by the Nip Roller. A friction force generated by the Nip Roller

Chapter 6
pressure on the roll paper is used to feed the paper.

Paper feeding:
In feeding the roll paper, paper width and paper skew are detected by the multi sensor. In case that the
paper skew or paper width needs to be corrected, the paper is repeatedly fed forward and backward by the
Chapter 7

Active Roll Brake Unit, then slack and skew on the roll paper is corrected. In feeding paper and printing, air
suction is performed by the Platen Unit to prevent paper floating. In addition, to reduce uneven printing in
feeding direction, the following is performed for control and correction.
Chapter 8

2-2. Operation Principle 43

SM-17001E-00
 Torque control in feeding paper:
Chapter 1

An inertial force acts on the roll paper in feeding. The inertial force acts to the resistance direction of
the feeding, or acts to the slack direction. This force is changed by the amount of paper remaining. It is
detected by the Active Roll Brake Unit, and the feed length is constant by having the torque controlled.

 2. Function of Purge Unit
Chapter 1

The function of the Purge Unit is to perform maintenance against the Print Head nozzle (for ejecting
ink) and to prevent the non-ink ejection. To be more precise, the following three maintenances are
performed.

Capping:
Chapter 2

If the nozzles are exposed to the air, moisture of ink will get dried and ink becomes hard. To prevent
this, the Print Head should be always Capped except when printing is performed.

Cleaning:
By vacuuming ink from the nozzles, the ink flow path in the Print Head will be filled with a new ink, and
Chapter 3

dusts and bubbles are eliminated from the ink flow path.

Wiping:
The rubber wiper wipes the Print Head surface, removing dust and ink droplet.
In the pigment-based ink model, to improve wiping, the Wiper Blade is moistened with the wet liquid
Chapter 4

(glycerin).

For details of purpose and operation for each maintenance, see “4. Capping”, “5. Cleaning” and “6. Wiping.”

 2. Function of Carriage Unit
Chapter 1

Function of the Carriage Unit is to receive printing order (an electrical signal), moves the Print Head left to
right, and ejects ink to accurate place from the nozzles. For the purpose of achieving these, the following
functions are installed to this printer.
·· Reduces unevenness in printing by controlling carriage speed evenly.
·· Corrects ink dot placement both in the accelerating zone and decelerating zone by ejecting ink at
Chapter 2

different timing.
·· Corrects misplaced printing position caused by mechanical accidental error.
·· Improves accuracy of the ink dot placement by optimizing the carriage height.
·· Various adjustments and detection by the Multi Sensor.
Chapter 3

1) Reducing uneven printing by equalizing the carriage speed (Carriage cogging correction):
a) Equalizing the carriage speed by the motor torque correction:
The correction table which corrects uneven carriage speed caused by theCarriage Motor torque
(the anti phase signal) is equipped to this printer. By controlling the motor speed, uneven
printing (occurs in about 5 mm to 7 mm interval) caused by inconstant speed, which is caused by
Chapter 4

the motor torque, is reduced. This correction is also adopted to the current LEP.

b) Equalizing carriage speed by acceleration correction signal:

The acceleration sensor is newly adopted to this printer to achieve high quality print and to
improve carriage speed equalization, besides equalizing the carriage speed by the motor torque
Chapter 5

correction table. The acceleration information read by the acceleration sensor during moving
carriage is fed back to the motor torque correction table, and the carriage speed is controlled in
real time.

Chapter 1

It controls timing of ink ejection against the ink dot misplacement caused by the carriage speed
in the acceleration and deceleration zone. When the carriage speed is constant at all times, ink
dot can be landed to the desired printing position while speed from ink ejection to the ink dot
landing is included. In this product, to improve printing speed, printing is performed while the
carriage is accelerated and decelerated in the printing area. If timing of ink ejection is controlled
Chapter 2

evenly without considering the difference in speed between the accelerating/decelerating zone
and the constant speed zone, printing error occurs against the desired printing position (refer to
the “Before correction” in the picture below). By controlling print start timing with considering
difference in speed between the accelerating/decelerating speed zone and the constant speed zone,
misplacement of a printing position can be avoided.

Head and the ink dot is landed to the paper, increases. When the carriage height gets narrow, the
Print Head may be contacted.
To print in accurate carriage height, the Print Head is adjusted to optimum height automatically
according to the paper type and environment (temperature/moisture) before printing. The carriage

Outline:
To implement the non-ejection detection, the appropriate head management sensor position is detected
and the non-ejection detection position is determined against all the nozzles.

Chapter 2
When to implement:
·· At initial setting
-- After initial filling in the initial setting, “Optical axis adjustment” -> “Detecting non-ejection” is
performed automatically.
·· After removing and installing the Print Head.

Chapter 3
·· After ink filling after transportation
·· If there are more than 100 nozzles not matched with the previous result of non-ejection detection,
then, the optical axis adjustment after the recovery cleaning is performed.

2) Non-ejection detection

Chapter 1
Function of the platen is as follows:
·· Preventing paper float during printing
·· Preventing ink smearing on the back side of paper during printing
·· Preventing non-ejection of ink during printing

Chapter 2
1. To prevent paper floating during printing:
Performing air suction by the suction fan to a paper prevents paper floating.

2. To prevent ink smear on the back side of paper during printing:

Chapter 3
In the existing models (imagePROGRAF series), in some cases, when air suction is performed by the suction
fan, the suction fan vacuums ink mist during printing, as a consequent, the back side of paper smears.
However, in the imagePROGRAF TX series, the air inlet is newly adopted between the opening for paper
suction and the borderless printing tray, and then, direction of air flow under the paper is reversed, as a
result, smearing on the back side of paper caused by the ink mist going in under the paper can be prevented.

Chapter 4
Chapter 5
Chapter 6
Chapter 7

In the TX series, in case of smearing on the back side of paper, increase “vacuum power of the
paper feeding part.”
Chapter 8

Note: In the existing model, “decrease” the vacuum power in order to reduce the ink mist going
in under the paper when the back side of paper smears.

SM-17001E-00
 3. To prevent non-ejection of ink during printing
Chapter 1

To achieve high quality print, pre-ejection is performed while printing.

The old ink inside the nozzles, the air bubble, and the mixed color ink are ejected. In addition, the dusts are
removed. Place to perform the pre-ejection is based on the paper detection result.

3-2. Connection Settings for Remote Service

1) Outline

Remote service (NETEYE/e-Maintenance/imageWARE Remote) is printer remote monitoring service on the

Chapter 2

Internet based on the agreement with the customer.

The remote service can be used by the agreement, the registration of the printer information on UGW, and
enabling the E-RDS setting of the printer. The status change of the printer, counter information, problem
information, etc. are transmitted to UGW via the Internet.
Based on the agreement, perform the following setting procedures:
Chapter 3

• E-RDS (EMBEDDED-RDS): Monitoring program operating in the printer

• UGW (Universal Gateway Server): Remote service administrative server
• HTTPS/SOAP protocol is used for the communication between UGW and the printer.

3) Notes on servicing

Chapter 1
• After the MAIN PCB UNIT is replacement, the remote service transmission schedule information is
lost.
Based on the agreement on remote service (NETEYE/e-Maintenance/imageWARE Remote), if the
E-RDS function is enabled, it is necessary to execute a communication test after replacing MAIN PCB
UNIT.

Chapter 2
If not executed, the subsequent transmission schedule information will not be acquired again,
and will not be transmitted to UGW. Therefore, this will affect the provision of remote service to
customers.
*see 7-3. PCB Replacement Mode in Chapter 7 to be described.
• If the agreement of remote service (NETEYE/e-Maintenance/imageWARE Remote) of the printer

Chapter 3
becomes invalid,
set[E-RDS SWITCH] to [OFF] in service mode
or
set [Enable/disable monitoring service] to [Inactive] in user mode.

Chapter 1

No. Questions Answers

1 Fails in communication test [COM-TEST]. If communication test [COM-TEST] fails, the following factors are possible:
1. Network cable is removed or broken.
2. Name resolution fails (host name is incorrect or DNS server has been halted).
3. The network setting (IP address/DNS server/proxy server (authentication)) is incorrect.
4. The setting of UGW-ADDRESS or UGW-PORT has been changed.

6-1. Introduction
This chapter gives procedures for disassembling and reassembling the printer.
After failure diagnostics, the service technician is requested to follow the instructions in this chapter to
replace a faulty unit.
Chapter 2

Each procedure is based on 44” model with 24” model and 36” model information added when necessary.
Harnesses, wire saddles, and edge saddles are subject to change without notice.

Notes on disassembly and reassembly:

General notes:
1. Before disassembly or reassembly, be sure to unplug the power cord for the safety purpose.
Chapter 3

2. Before disassembly or reassembly, remove the paper from the printer.

3. When draining ink into the sub tank or disconnecting the ink tube, be cautious not to drop ink or smear
the units and surroundings with ink.
4. Adjustment or counter resetting is required for some of the parts after they are assembled. Be sure
to perform the specified adjustment or counter resetting at the end of assembly. (Counter resetting is
Chapter 4

specifically mentioned in the applicable disassembly procedures.)

5. In reassembling the unit, make sure to use the proper screw (length and diameter).
6. DO NOT make the printer operate with a part or unit removed in principle.
7. Before handling the circuit board, touch the metal part of the printer to discharge static electricity and
protect the board from damaged due to static electricity.
Chapter 5

8. Before replacing the circuit board, unplug the AC power cord from the printer and wait for three minutes
or longer to ensure discharge of electricity from the board.
9. Tighten the screw cautiously not to apply any extra power. Screwing too tight or too strong will break or
deform the screw hole.
10. For works where you can get ink smearing, it is recommended to put on vinyl gloves.
Chapter 6

11. When placing a removed print head, keep the face surface free from contacting anything.
Never place the print head with the face surface facing down.
12. When the print head is removed or it is uncapped during the work, it is recommended to perform Print
Head Cleaning at the end of the work (reassembly).
13. When attaching the cutter unit, attach the special tool under the unit with the unit positioned in the
Chapter 7

center as shown below, then tighten the screw.

·· The touch interval should be within two seconds.
·· If you release the Power button while touching the operation panel, start the printer in the user mode.

Chapter 4
·· If you make a mistake in touching order, start the printer in the user mode.

<How to launch PCB replacement mode>

When the printer is launched following the procedures for starting service mode after replacing a MAIN PCB

Chapter 5
UNIT or a BACK UP PCB UNIT, the printer automatically enters the PCB replacement mode. For details, refer to
7-3. PCB Replacement Mode.

3) The function for servicing and users (recovery mode)

Chapter 6
“Recovery mode” is the function for not only servicing but users. In recovery mode, when the power of the
printer is disconnected during firmware update*1 for some reason, the screen automatically transits to the
recovery mode at the next launch of the printer. For details, refer to 7-5. Recovery Mode.

*1: Firmware update by Firm update tool, iPF PRO Service Tool or FIRMWARE UPDATE(USB) of service mode.

7-2. Service Mode

1) Purpose
The service mode is to be used when a service person provides the customer with servicing of this product
Chapter 2

(troubleshooting, repair, diagnosis, servicing adjustment, and etc.). Servicing is classified into the following
seven items: “PRINTER STATUS,” “DIAGNOSIS,” “FUNCTION,” “ADJUSTMENT,” “TEST PRINT,” “E-RDS,” and
“OTHERS.” These items are displayed in the menu of the operation panel only when the service mode is
launched.
The purpose and the details of each item are to be described later item by item.
Chapter 3

2) The differences from user mode

The behavior differences between user mode and service mode are shown below.

The specific error codes are ignored.

Chapter 4

In the user mode, when the error codes below are displayed, the maintenance cartridge is required to be
replaced. On the other hand, in the service mode, the error codes below are ignored, therefore, the counter
of the maintenance cartridge can be reset from the service mode menu.
E codes Detail codes Status
- 2819 (1720) Maintenance cartridge full
- 281B (1720) Lack of maintenance cartridge remaining capacity

error
NOTE: The number in parenthesis is a support number, which is an error code for users displayed on PC or
online manual.

Releasing the error with detail code starting from four or five.
Chapter 6

When the printer is started in the service mode, the message for releasing the error with detail code
starting from four or five (4*** or 5***) is displayed so that a service person can perform troubleshooting.

The user’s print jobs cannot be printed.

If the user made the printer enter the service mode, printing cannot be performed.
Chapter 7

The print head can be swapped between the models among TX series.
As the print head can be swapped among TX series in the service mode, the number of the print head for
tool required for print-head-related troubleshooting is minimized.
When replacing the print head, select [SERVICE MODE > FUNCTION > HEAD REPLACEMENT]. (Do not use CR
LOCK/CR UNLOCK to replace the print head).
