Light Background Due To Auto Exposure In Copies Of Originals With Frames
When Auto Exposure is turned [On] for originals with dark frames along the Lead Registration Edge, the suppression value is set
so large such that areas of medium density appear extremely light.
Figure 1 Light Background (in circled area for example) Due To Auto Exposure In Copies Of Originals With Frames
Defect Sample (j0st3229)
Cause
Auto Exposure performs background detection of images at a distance of up to 10mm from the Lead Registration Edge. As there
were dark frames along the Lead Registration Edge, Auto Exposure could not detect the original background density. Therefore,
Auto Exposure was performed based on the density of the frames.
Corrective Action
• Disable Auto Exposure.
