5.2 Develop Roller / Developing Bias Voltage Counter Reset Function

Since print density is likely to become darker as the toner gets older, the developing bias is

lowered by degrees (bias voltage is reduced) according to the number of develop roller

rotations so that an almost fixed density can be maintained from the beginning to the end. The

developing bias voltage can be verified in the display of log information (Function code 80).

In the case that the toner cartridge is replaced with a new one, the develop roller counter and

developing bias voltage are reset at the same time. This function allows you to reset these

manually.

(1) Press the [Clear/Back] button while the front cover is being opened.

(2) The “Replace Drum ?” “1. Yes 2. No” will appear on the LCD. If resetting the counter,

press the [1] key. If not, press the [2] key.

(3) Press the [*], [0] and [0] key in this order, the counter will reset and "Accepted" will

appear on the LCD.

(4) The machine returns to the status that the front cover is opened.
