This machine performs the following controls.
1. "Black band control" in order to maintain the drum cleaning performance
2. "Low duty discharge control" in order to maintain the density stability in the case of
continuous output of low duty image
Therefore the criterion of the full Waste Toner Container varies according to the environment
and the image duty as shown in the following table.

Waste Toner Feed Screw Lock Detection

To detect lock state of the Waste Toner Feed Screw.
The drive by the Developing Motor (M2) is transmitted to the Screw Gear, which makes
the Waste Toner Screw rotate. When this Screw Gear becomes unable to rotate, it slides
sideways by the transmitted drive force.
The Screw Gear fails to rotate once the Waste Toner Screw is locked; therefore, the
transmitted drive force makes the Screw Gear slide sideways. The Waste Toner Lock
Detection Switch (SW5) is placed by the side of the Screw Gear and SW5 is pressed when
the Screw Gear is moved. With this mechanism, it is detected that the Waste Toner Screw is
locked.
