Image Stabilization Control (Density) and Output Process
To ensure that a stabilized output image is produced at all times, the following image
stabilization controls are provided
.
Leak Detection Control
For the clearance between the Photo Conductor and Developing Roller, an optimum
developing bias voltage is established that does not result in a light image or uneven density.
Purpose Control Detection
To ensure stabilized

ATVC
■ See the Transfer section on
page 7-22.
Temperature/Humidity Sensor (HS1)
To ensure stabilized image
density; to ensure good
tone reproduction
AIDC control (Density)
■ Leak detection control
■ AIDC intensity control
■ Reflectance measurement control
■ Control of the maximum amount
of toner sticking
■ Laser intensity adjustment control
■ Correction control
