Adjusting the Secondary Transfer Voltage
Use the printed chart to adjust the secondary transfer voltage. The procedure differs depending on the secondary transfer voltage adjustment method selected in step 2 of "Configuring/Printing the Chart".
Visually identify the optimal patch in the chart and adjust the secondary transfer voltage.
1
Check the optimal patch in the printed chart.
With the current settings, chart numbers are printed in magenta.
Check the chart as you sequentially increase from negative values to positive values. When you reach a point where the density within the patch appears uniform (-8 in the example), compare it with a patch with a value that is higher by 2 (-7 and -6 in the example) and select the value you consider to be optimal.
A side that has a single asterisk (*) printed next to the chart number is the front side.
Where there is no discernible difference among the selected numbers, choose the middle of the three values (-7 in the example).
2
In the <Adjust Secondary Transfer Voltage> screen, enter the number confirmed in the chart.
Select <Front Side> or <Back Side> and enter the number using <-> or <+>.
In either of the following situations, adjust the value for <Back Side>.
