The light intensity may decrease because of dust accumulated on the optical
parts. Additionally, the drum sensitivity gradually decreases during the drum's
life. This may cause dirty background on copies. To compensate for this, V
corrections 1 and 2 are done.
The exposure lamp voltage is increased by two steps at the set copy count
interval (a step is +2.0 V for 230 V machines, and +1 V for 120 V machines).
The table below shows the relationship between the SP setting and the copy
interval.

correction 1 compensates for the decrease of drum sensitivity and the

decrease in reflectivity of the 4th, 5th, and 6th mirrors due to dust.

V
correction 2 compensates for dust on the lens and mirrors 1 to 3, but is
L
independent of the drum condition.
The ADS sensor receives the light reflected through the 1st, 2nd and 3rd
mirrors from the white plate located under the middle of the left scale. The
photosensor circuit converts this light intensity into a voltage. The CPU stores
this voltage in memory as the white plate reference voltage. This is done
every time SP56 (ADS reference voltage adjustment) is done, before
sampling starts for the ADS sensor adjustment.
Every 500 copies, the machine reads the intensity of light reflected from the
white plate and compares it with the white plate reference voltage.
If the measured voltage difference is more than 0.1 volt, +2 steps will be
added to the exposure lamp setting as the V
The sum of V
correction factors 1 and 2 cannot exceed +40 steps.

correction factors 1 and 2 are automatically reset every time the light

see Service Remarks for details.)
