b. Shading Adjustment
In this adjustment, the density of white paper and that of the standard white plate are mea-
sured, and the results are stored in memory.
The data is computed for use as the target level during shading correction. The adjustment
is designed for service mode and is used upon installation of the machine, after replacement
of the scanning lamp, or when correcting changes in the intensity of the scanning lamp oc-
curring over time.
c. Shading Correction
This correction is executed each time an original is scanned. The density of the standard
white plate is measured and the result is compared against the target value stored in the
shading correction circuit. The difference is used as the shading correction value, which will
be used to correct the variation in CCD pixels, thereby ensuring a specific level of image
density.
