Theory of Operation 2-59
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.
Front Sensor Board
Located under the Registration Roller #1, the Front Sensor Board communicates with
the Motor Driver Board and connects to these components:
■ Media Thickness Sensor
■ Registration Clutch #1
■ Temperature/Humidity Sensor
■ Tray 1 (MPT) Home Position Sensor
■ OHP (Transparency) Sensor
■ Tray 1 (MPT) Level Sensor
■ Tray 1 (MPT) No Paper Sensor
Mounted directly on the board are the Registration Sensor #1 and Transfer Unit
Entrance Sensor.
Rear Sensor Board
Located behind the Rear Sensor Board Cover on the Exit Assembly, the Rear Sensor
Board communicates with the Engine Control Board and connects to these
components:
■ Fuser Exit Sensor
■ Full Stack Sensors for Top and Side Output Trays
■ Job Offset Position Sensor
LVPS Outputs
