Potential control is timed to execute at the following times.

Execution Timing

Conditions

Power on, or recovery from Energy Save mode after the machine has been idle for more than 6 hours.

The machine checks for any variation in the ambient conditions since the machine was last powered off, or from the time of last print job:

  • If the idle time is greater than or equal to the threshold value of SP3530-001, or if the page count of SP3530-007, -008 is greater than or equal to the interval setting of SP3530-005, -006 at power ON.
  • The temperature change is greater than or equal to the temperature threshold setting of SP3530-002.
  • The change in relative humidity is greater than or equal to the relative humidity threshold setting (%RH) of SP3530-003.
  • The change in absolute humidity is greater than or equal to the absolute humidity threshold setting (g/m3) of SP3530-004.

After the machine issued an alert to close the front doors.

During printing

The page count of SP3529-006 is greater than or equal to the interval setting of SP3533-002.

After the machine signals end of print job

The page count of SP3529-006 is greater than or equal to the job end interval setting of SP3534-002.

However, if SP3500-002, which switches image adjustment On/Off, is set to OFF, then image adjustment does not execute automatically.

Setting the following SP codes to OFF cancels image quality adjustment, so leave them set to their default ON settings.

  • SP3500-001 Image Quality Adjustment ON/OFF All
  • SP3500-002 Image Quality Adjustment ON/OFF Process Control
  • SP3500-004 Image Quality Adjustment ON/OFF - TD Sensor Initialization
