Solenoid (SL1) is switched ON, while the charging roller is rotating, to move
the cleaning pad against the charging roller. The cleaning pad oscillates in the
axial direction of the charging roller.

I
At the end of the copying cycle: for run lengths exceeding 500 copies and for
I
run lengths below 50 copies.
When 'adjustment/cleaning' is executed in user mode. (In this case, a clean-
I
ing bias is applied to the charging roller and the transfer roller).
