5.1 TEMPERATURE CORRECTION

Temperature correction has changed, as explained below. Also, the
machine no longer performs drum rotation time correction.
The new drum charge roller needs only about half the correction voltage that
was needed in the base copier. Further, the level of correction needed for the
lowest temperature point (5°C) is about the same as the normal room
temperature point for the base copier [A].
In the base machine, rotation time correction was only needed for low
temperatures where the temperature correction was large. In the new
machines, the temperature correction is never greater than –300 V, so the
rotation time correction has been eliminated.
