1)Execute SIM 41-2.

2)Set A3 (11" x 17") paper on the OC table.

3)Press the start key again.

4)The sensor level of the original sensor is automatically checked and the value with an original - 40 is made as the threshold value for scanning. (Automatic setting)

5)Execute SIM 43-3.

6)The light reception level of the original sensor is displayed.

The first digit of the copy quantity display shows "A": Light recep- tion level display

The first digit of the copy quantity display shows "b": Original judgement level display

(The mode selection is made with the magnification ratio display key.)

7)By changing the paper set on the original table, the original size LED sensed by the sensor is lighted.

C. Image density adjustment

(1) Copy mode (SIM 46-1)

1)Set a test chart (UKOG-0162FCZZ) on the OC table as shown below.

2)Put several sheets of A3 or 11" x 17" white paper on the test chart.

3)Execute SIM 46-1.

4)After warmup, shading is performed and the current set value of the density level is displayed on the display section in 2 digits.

For mode selection, use the density select key.

5)Change the set value with the 10-key to adjust the copy image density.

6)Make a copy and check that the specification below is satisfied.
