Ricoh A-C4 - Correction for Paper Width and Thickness

DRUM CHARGE 20 June 2005
6-58
6.8.3 CORRECTION FOR PAPER WIDTH AND THICKNESS
NOTE: This correction is done for the bypass tray only.
The by-pass tray can be used for non-standard paper narrower than sizes
accepted by the paper trays. Thicker paper, OHP sheets, etc. can also be loaded in
the by-pass tray but adjustments must be performed with the SP modes listed
below in order to avoid jams and copy quality problems.
SP Mode SP Name
SP2001 1 Charge Roller Bias Adjustment Width 216 - 297 mm (Default: -1450 V)
SP2309 1 Paper Lower Width [a] Width limit (Default: 150 mm)
SP2309 2 Paper Upper Width [b] Width limit (Default: 216 mm)
SP2914 1 C-alpha Adjust 10V/step (Default: 150 V)
SP2914 2 C-beta Adjust 10V/step (Default: 0 V)
The way that these SP modes are used is shown below.
For example, with the default settings, if the paper width fed from the by-pass tray
is 200 mm, the charge roller voltage will be –1500 +0 V.
