Check the developing assembly
for leakage; if normal, go to a
check on the transfer output.

2.1.6 Checking the Surface Potential Control System

iR5570 / iR6570
1. Outline
If an image fault occurs, it is necessary to find out whether the cause is in the static image formation block
including the photosensitive drum and the potential control system or if it is caused at time of development or
transfer.
An image fault may be isolated by finding out whether the surface potential is correct using service mode.
2. Disabling the Auto Control Mechanisms
As a means of checking the potential control system, the auto control mechanism may be disabled (hereafter,
non-auto control mode).
If the image fault in question is more or less corrected when the machine is in non-auto control mode, you can
suspect the potential measurement unit and the DC controller PCB as the cause of the fault.
You can also take advantage of non-auto control mode as a tentative remedy when the auto control mechanism
has a fault.
