Density Compensation Process is performed as follows.
1. Several solid patches are created on Drum and are measured by Density Sensor at a
regular interval of Main Motor operating time (No.655).
This is called Density Measure.
2. If the current density value (calculated based on Density Measure) does not meet Target
Density (No.653), one of the Adjustment Level listed below will be applied.
3. Developer Bias and Regulation Bias (No.650) will be adjusted based on the current
Adjustment Level.
