U131 Setting the toner sensor control voltage
Description
Displays or changes the toner sensor control voltage automatically set in maintenance item U130.
Purpose
To check the automatically set toner sensor control voltage. Also to change the toner density if an image is too
dark or light.
Method
Press the start key. The current setting for the toner sensor control voltage is displayed.
Setting
1. Change the setting using the zoom +/– keys.
Description Setting range Initial setting
Toner sensor control voltage 0 to 255 155
Increasing the setting makes the density higher, and decreasing it makes the density lower.
Increasing the setting too high may result in toner scattering.
2. Press the start key. The value is set.
Completion
Press the stop/clear key. The indication for selecting a maintenance item No. appears.
U132 Replenishing toner forcibly
Description
Replenishes toner forcibly until the toner sensor output value reaches the toner feed start level.
Purpose
Used when the toner empty is detected frequently.
Method
1. Press the start key.
2. Press the start key. Operation starts, and the current data is displayed.
Toner is replenished until the toner sensor output value reaches the toner feed start level.
3. Display each data by lighting the respective copy exposure indicator using the copy exposure adjustment
keys.
Copy exposure indicator Description
Exp. 1 Toner sensor output value after start key is pressed
Exp. 2 Current toner feed start level
Exp. 3 Current toner sensor control voltage
Exp. 4 Absolute humidity
4. To stop operation, press the stop/clear key.
Completion
Press the stop/clear key when toner replenishment stops. The indication for selecting a maintenance item No.
appears.
U135 Checking toner feed motor operation
Description
Drives the toner feed motor.
Purpose
To check the operation of the toner feed motor.
Caution
Note that driving the motor unnecessarily long may cause a toner jam, resulting in machine lockup. Be sure to
drive the motor for only a few seconds.
Method
1. Press the start key. “on” appears.
2. Press the start key. The toner feed motor turns on.
3. To stop operation, press the stop/clear key.
Completion
Press the stop/clear key when operation stops. The indication for selecting a maintenance item No. appears.
