2.7.1 To Adjust the Copy Image Quality in Black Mode
*You can start with any of the procedures. But it is recommended to perform the procedures in order, as listed below. You can use one procedure in conjunction with another. But if this changes the image quality more than required or loses effectiveness of the adjustment, restore the settings made in the previously used procedure to the original. Then perform the next procedure.
*Procedure (1) is used by the service technician, and by the user.
*Procedures (2) to (5) are used by the service technician only.
(1) Press the [IMAGE] button on the Control Panel. Press the [BACKGROUND ADJUSTMENT] button. Press the [LIGHT] button to decrease the background density.
After decreasing the background density, copy and check the image quality.
With the background density set to the minimum, if further image quality adjustments are still necessary, the service technician must use the next procedure.
(2) Enter adjustment mode [05]. Change the values for codes [600 to 602] to adjust the background density.
