D. Image Adjustment Basic Procedure

n Non-AE, Copy Density at 5
1-7
Is there a
difference in density
between front
and rear?
Is it low (light)
at the rear?
Turn the adjusting screw at the rear of the primary charging assembly clockwise, and turn the adjusting screw at the front counterclockwise the same degree (1.5 mm max. each).
Make two to three copies of the Test Sheet.
Check the height of the charging wire.
Turn the adjusting screw at the rear of the primary charging assembly counterclockwise, and turn the adjusting screw at the front clockwise the same degree (1.5 mm max. each).
Turn off and then on the machine, and make a copy.
Note 1: If the difference still exists after turning the screw
1. 5 mm (each; a full turn causes a 0.7mm difference), check the charging assemblies, scanning lamp, and scanner for dirt.
Note 2: When turning the screw counterclockwise, take
care so that the wire is not 7.5mm or less in height.
Check the copy paper and the transfer system.
Is the density
of gray scale No. 1
too low (light)?
Clean the standard white plate, mirror, lens, dust­roofing glass, scanning lamp, reflecting plate, and heat absorbing glass.
Turn off and then on the machine, and make a copy.
Is 'VDM' 'VDT'
±10 V?
Is 'PLMT' '1'?
Is 'VL1M' 'VL1T'
±10 V?
Is 'VL1M" 'VL1T'
±10V?
Check the potential control system; if normal, replace the photosensitive drum.
Check the scanning lamp and the potential control system; if normal, replace the photosensitive drum.
Increase the value of 'VDT-SW'.
Turn off and on the machine, and make a copy.
Increase the value of 'LIGHT_5'.
Decrease the value of 'LIGHT_5'.
Is the density
of gray scale No. 10
proper?
Is the density
of gray scale No. 10
too high (dark)?
Execute AE adjustment. (See p. 11-36.)

Caution:
• Make thorough checks of the block (front, rear) for melting by leakage, deformation by heat, tears, and yellowing. If any fault is found, replace it.
• Be sure to check and clean the inner side as well as the outer side of the block (front, rear).
• Do NOT use a cloth coated with metal powder for cleaning.
• Do NOT use a moist cloth for cleaning. Use lint-free paper, and clean. (Be sure that the part is fully dry before putting it back into the machine.
• Try to finish all work (scheduled servicing/maintenance) within a specific period of time.

CHAPTER 2 STANDARDS AND ADJUSTMENTS

A. Image Adjustment

1. Adjusting the Image Leading Edge Margin
Select ‘LE_BLANK’ in service mode ( ). Make adjustments so that the image leading edge margin is 4.5 ±1.5 mm when the
Test Sheet is copied in Direct.

4. Adjusting the Tension of the Scanning Lamp Cable
1) Remove the two mounting screws, and remove the left cover.
2) Loosen the fixing screw on the tension spring bracket.
3) Turn the tension adjusting screw so that the reading is as indicated.
• Turn the tension adjusting screw A so that the reading of the spring gauge is 200 ±50 g when the center of the scanner cable is pulled about 10 mm.

2) Remove the lens hood.
3) Remove the mirror guide plate.
4) Move the lens stage in the direction of Enlarge.
5) Remove the screw, and remove the mirror cleaning tool.
6) While butting the mirror cleaning tool q against the No. 5 mirror as shown, clean the mirror by moving the tool in the direction of the arrow. At this time, be sure that your finger or the cleaning tool will not touch the No. 4 mirror.

C. Image Formation System

1. Grid Wire of the Primary Charging Assembly
1) Loosen the two mounting screws used to fix the left/right shielding plate in place.
2) Loosen the three mounting screws used to fix the motor unit in place at the front.
Figure 2-18
3) Loosen the mounting screw, and move the assembly in the direction indicated in Figure 2-19; then, fix it in place temporarily.
Figure 2-19
4) Free a length of charging wire (about 5 cm) from the charging wire reel (0.1mm dia.); then, form a loop at its end (2mm dia.)
Reference:
To form a loop, wind the charging wire around a hex key three to four times, and twist the charging wire.
5) Cut the twisted charging wire (excess) with a nipper.

7) After routing the wire for 31 runs, lead it through section B, give it a 1/2 turn, lead it between washer and motor unit, wind it once around the mounting screw clockwise, and fix it in place with the mounting screw.
8) Cut the excess charging wire with a nipper.
9) Tighten the mounting screw loosened in step 8). Take care to avoid deformation (slack) of the charging assembly. Try to tighten the mounting screw (front) on the shielding plate (left, right) earlier.
