Power ON
Error displayed?
When Deve Home Position
Sensor Error occurs:
→ Go to “FIP-1.46”
When an ID Error occurs:
XERO → Go to “FIP-1.9”
Y Toner → Go to “FIP-1.13”
M Toner → Go to “FIP-1.17”
C Toner → Go to “FIP-1.21”
K Toner → Go to “FIP-1.25”
When Deve Home position
Sensor Error occurs:
→ Go to “FIP-1.46”
PLC sequence
*3
(30 secs or more)
*1 : Rotary rotates 360º plus a little more during
Home Position correction and 720º during
execution of the PLC sequence.
*2 : By ADC TC correction, the target density
value of TC is being corrected according
to the developing machine drive time.
*3 : The PLC sequence creates and reads ADC
patches to adjust toner and image density.
