(b) Enter adjustment mode [05]. Increase the values for codes [532/534] to adjust the background peak of
range correction and lighten the copy image.
(Increase the number of pixels to be identified as "white" by range correction.)
• The code to use varies according to the original mode (Text/Photo or Text). Adjust the value for [05]
code corresponding to the condition for which you would like to improve the image quality and
increase the current value by 10 to 30.

After adjusting the background peak, copy and check the copy image quality.
If further image quality adjustments are still necessary, use the next procedure.
(5) Enter adjustment mode [05]. Change the values for codes [590/591] to adjust the gamma curve balance of
the low- and medium-density areas.

Set a value smaller than 128. 0 to 255 128
* Set the value in increments of approximately 20, while checking the copy image until the optimum value is
obtained.
* Since the subcode varies according to the area where the density is adjusted, refer to the table below and
set the appropriate subcode. Remember that mainly adjusting the low- or medium-density area will change
the copy density of the images seen through the back of the page. Setting "2" for the subcode will allow
you to adjust the high-density area. But this will not solve the problem. Therefore, never change the value
for the high-density area.
Subcode Area where the density is adjusted
0 Low-density area
1 Medium-density area
Precautions after the completion of the adjustment
The adjustment may possibly cause text handwritten with a pencil or light text to become illegible on the copy.
Therefore, carefully perform the adjustment, while checking the copy image.
Remarks
Enter a value within the recommended value range mentioned in the procedures. Otherwise, it may cause a loss
in MFP performance, including degradation in the image quality and a reduction in the life of the consumables.
