When the [START] key is pressed again, the ready lamp turns and remains off.
The DV replacement/OPC drum cartridge replacement lamp displays the status of the mirror
home position sensor. (The lamp lights up when the mirror is in the home position.)
During aging, the copy lamp lights up. When the [Interrupt] key is pressed, the operation is
interrupted if operating, and the machine goes into the sub code input standby mode.

Single paper feeder (SPF) aging
When the [START] key is pressed, the set magnification ratio is acquired and document transport
operation of single surface is performed in the case of SPF or document transport operation of
duplex surfaces is performed. During operation, the LED on the display section corresponding to the
selected magnification ratio lights up, and the magnification ratio is displayed on the 7-seg display.
When the [Interrupt] key is pressed at that time, the machine goes to the sub code input standby
mode. When the [CA] key is pressed, the simulation is terminated.
