Content Process control trouble (OPC base
surface reflection factor is improper)
Detail
Usually the sensor gain is adjusted so
that the output is a certain value, by
reading the drum base surface with the
image density sensor before starting
process control.
However, a certain output is not
obtained by adjusting the sensor gain.
Cause
Image density sensor defective
Check
and
remedy
Check process control sensor output
with SIM44-2. (Do not adjust)
If the result is far different from the
specified value, it suggests the sensor is
defective. Check the sensor and
harness.
If the deviation is relatively small, check
the sensor and drum surface for
contamination.

Charging voltage improper
Check
and
remedy
