From:
PP Tech Service Dept., 1st PP Tech Service Sect.
Classification:
General
"0218: Adjust Maximum Image Density" of the Adjustment Setting for Skilled Operators
menu was found with a failure as described in 'Symptom' below. Until a solution
becomes available, it is requested to field technicians and users to refrain from applying
this adjustment. As a workaround, adjust the maximum toner amount in the SP mode
as this will substitute the effect generated by "0218: Adjust Maximum Image Density."
Symptom
While adjustment made in "0218: Adjust Maximum Image Density" changes the target
value for process control in order to achieve the target image density, once process
control is executed during a job, the system will ignore the adjustment made in "0218"
and return to the default process control target value.
Cause
Software bug
Solution
Bug fix: TBD
Workaround
1. Set the value for "0218: Adjust Maximum Image Density" to "0".
