6. Correcting the Application Voltage Level (APVC control)
The primary charging efficiency varies according to changes in the site environment
(temperature, humidity) and deterioration of the charging roller. A reference current is applied
when the main power switch is turned on to find out the degree of voltage output for correction a
follows:
A reference voltage is applied during initial rotation after main power switch is turned on.
The current output is measured, and communicated to the PW-CPU of the composite power
supply PCB.
The PW-CPU computes the optimum application voltage.
Primary charging is initiated using the optimum application voltage.
7. Controlling the Output Mode
To prevent stray toner in non-image areas in continuous copying, both AC bias and DC bias
outputs are varied between image areas and non-image areas.

Be sure to enter the value indicated on the service label if you have replaced the image
processor PCB or initialized the RAM.
