Auto-Image Density Control (AIDC)

The printer periodically pauses for the color calibration procedure (also
known as the Auto-Image Density Control [AIDC] cycle). This process is
provided to make sure reliable printer operation with optimum output quality.
This 150-second calibration cycle automatically occurs after the installation of
a new toner cartridge or OPC drum cartridge.
If you open the door before the Ready indicator on the control panel
lights up and the Error indicator goes off, the printer stops and repeats
the calibration cycle.
