2.1 Overview
This section describes the operating principles of the printer mechanism
and electrical circuit boards. The major components of the EPSON Stylus
PHOTO 2000P are:
Printer mechanism:
M4W60
Main board:
C304MAIN Board
Power supply board: C298PSB/PSE Board
2.1.1 Printer Mechanism
Unlike other EPSON ink jet printers, the EPSON Stylus PHOTO 2000P uses a
DC motor as power source. The DC motor enables the printer to lower
noise during printing. Table 2-1 shows various motor types used in the
printer and their applications.
Table 2-1. Motor Types and Corresponding Applications
The basic structure of the printer mechanism is mostly common to the
Stylus COLOR 400, except that the Stylus PHOTO 2000P uses a Pump/ASF
motor. With this motor equipped, the paper loading mechanism and the
pumping mechanisms are independently driven, which allows the printer
to offer higher throughput.
Figure 2-1 shows the printer mechanism block diagram for the Stylus
PHOTO 2000P.

Motor Name
Type
Application / Feature
CR motor
DC motor with
brush
Drives the carriage making little noise.
Works with a linear scale to monitor motor’s
operating condition.
PF motor
DC motor with
brush
Supplies power to drive paper feeding
rollers used to send paper at specified
speeds and load/eject paper. To monitor
paper feeding pitch, a loop scale is attached
beside the high-precision gear.
Pump/ASF
motor
4-Phase / 48-
pole stepping
motor
Sends drive for pump operation and paper
feeding from ASF. Since this is a stepping
motor, it has no scales or photo sensors that
are used to monitor motor’s operating
condition.
