CHAPTER 2 STANDARDS AND ADJUSTMENTS
8.3 Zero Level Check
A "zero level check" is a check made to find out whether the control system of the DC
controller PCB identifies 0 V when the drum surface potential is 0 V.
A zero level check may be made in either of two ways, so as to find out whether a circuit
on the the DC controller PCB or the potential measurement circuit is normal:
1) Method 1:
2) Method 2:
8.3.1 Method 1
1) Turn off the main power switch.
2) Remove the rear upper cover.
3) Short CP106 [1] and CP105 [2] on the DC controller PCB using a cable whose both
ends are equipped with an alligator clip or a probe.
When shorting CP106 and CP105, be sure to keep the shorting tool away
from other elements or the pattern on the PCB.
