Title
Image density sensor trouble
(BLACK) (Transfer belt surface
reflection abnormality)
F2 44 Phenomena Display Lamp
Message
Detail In the image density
correction, the transfer belt
surface is read by the
image density sensor and
the sensor gain is adjusted
so that the output becomes
a fixed value. However, the
output of the specified
range cannot be obtained
even though the sensor
gain is changed.
