IU Yield Setting

Functions • To set the life threshold for imaging units.
Use • Use this setting when a gap appears between the actual life value of imaging unit and
the life specification value due to the way * a machine is used.
• Comparing the PC drum rotation time with the PC drum rotation time calculated
based on the number of printed pages, the machine detects the end of unit life using
the one that reaches the life specification value earlier.
This setting aims to extend the life threshold for the PC drum rotation time and
achieve a longer imaging unit life.
Normal : detects the end of life when the life specification value is reached.
Long
*The product specification value is determined based on what types of printing are
made on the machine. If the types of printing made on the machine are different from
the specified printing conditions, the life value of the imaging unit tends to be different
from the life specification value.
See conditions for life specification values in the service manual titled maintenance for
more information on printing conditions.
See P.18
NOTE
• When "Long" is selected, images printed after the life specification value is
out of guarantee.
The life counter value of imaging unit is accessed from [Service Mode] →
[Counter] → [Life] of the jig software. It is also described in the time series life
counter of the Management List.
• Before making this setting, be sure to check that the machine does not display
any message that warns each of imaging units, fusing unit, or image transfer
belt unit reaches their life value.
Setting/ • The default setting is Normal.

Change Warmup Time

Functions • To change the warm up time.
Use • With the warm-up time set to mode 1, if monochrome printing is made immediately
after a warm-up cycle and a paper curl problem occurs, change the setting to mode2.
• With the use of recycled or low quality paper, if a paper curl problem or other paper
curl related failures occur immediately after a normal warm-up cycle, set the setting
to mode 3 or mode 4. Other paper curl related failures include jam, paper ejection
failure, and punch/staple/fold position failure.
The following table shows the warm-up time (normal warm-up) in each mode.
Mode 1
Mode 2

Mode 4 Monochrome: 130 sec./Color: 130 sec.
Setting/ • The default setting is Mode 1.
Procedure
: detects the end of life when a value greater (longer) than the life specifi-
cation value is reached.
