1.4.27 Sensitivity adjustment of density sensor (Function code 72)
<Function>
This function allows you to print the patch data for density sensor sensitivity adjustment on the
belt unit and measure the density with the density sensor. The characteristics of the density
sensor are calculated based on the value measured by the density sensor, and the parameter
for correcting developing bias voltage is adjusted.
<Operating procedure>
(1) Press the 7 and 2 keys in this order in the initial state of the maintenance mode.
"PLS WAIT 72" is displayed on the LCD.
(2) When the parameter is obtained without errors, the machine returns to the initial state of
the maintenance mode. If the sensitivity adjustment of the density sensor fails, "ERROR
72" is displayed on the LCD. Display the error message by pressing the key, and take
the following measure that corresponds to the error message.
* # indicates the toner color (Y, M, or C) of which cartridge became empty.
