(4) Motor Control
• Head up/down motor (M902)
Motor which moves the head up and down.
There are three head positions-”Initial”, “Paper Pull In”, and “Print”.
• PLATEN motor (M904)
Stepping motor which moves the print paper front and back. Motor rotation consists of two speeds. (Printing:Slow, Paper
forward/reverse:Fast)
Speed is switched by switching Q902 according to the STPLOW signal (Pin *¡ of IC505) from the mechanism microprocessor.
Motor rotation is controlled by the STEP PH1 to PH4 outputs from the system controller (IC503).
• Ribbon motor (M903)
Motor which rewinds the print cartridge.
• Fan motor (M901)
Motor which rotates the FAN and lowers the head temperature.
The voltage of the thermistor at the side of the head is input to the system controller (Pin (º of IC503), the head temperature
is detected, and data is serial-transferred to the mechanism controller (IC505).
When the head temperature is high, the motor driver rotates the FAN motor using the output from the mechanism
controller. When the thermal head temperature decreases, the FAN motor stops.
Attach the FAN motor facing the direction in which it can suck in air from outside.
