    摘要: A method of controlling the density of images produced by an electrophotographic image forming apparatus to a constant value. A toner density sensor is provided with a first reference level variable in response to the output of an image density sensor, and a second reference level representative of a state associated with the optimum condition of a developer (e.g. immediately after replacement thereof). During usual control, the toner concentration of the developer is detected on the basis of the output of the toner density sensor, and the toner supply to the developer is controlled on the basis of the result of comparison of the detected toner concentration and the first reference level.

    摘要: A method applicable to an image forming apparatus which is implemented by an electrophotographic procedure for maintaining that the density of images to be produced by the apparatus is adequate at all times. When the density of a toner image of a reference image or a predetermined pattern sensed by the image density sensor lies in a predetermined adequate range, a sensing level associated with the toner density sensor responsive to the toner density of a developer is not changed. When the density of the toner image does not lie in the adequate range, it is determined that at least the sensing level of the toner density sensing being used at that time has to be changed. Then, whether or not the sensed density of the toner image of the reference image exists in a range in which the image density is controllable is determined. If the sensed density lies in the controllable range, the sensing level of the density sensor being used at that time is suitably changed in response to the sensed density of the toner image. If otherwise, i.e., when the image density sensor is in a fault, toner density control is continued without changing the sensing level of the toner image sensor being used.

    摘要: A toner concentration control method and system for controlling the toner concentration of a developer which includes toner and carrier for use in electrophotography. A controller, typically including a central processing unit or CPU, first determines a degree of deviation of the current toner concentration from a predetermined reference level and then replenishes the toner to the developer at an optimal replenishing condition which is varyingly set in accordance with the detected degree of deviation. In the preferred embodiment, the flow rate of toner to be supplied and time period of replenishing operation are varyingly set. Besides, the frequency of toner concentration detecting operation is also varyingly set so as to alleviate the load of the CPU.

    摘要: Light reflected from a reference pattern having a predetermined reflectivity is focused to a photoconductive element to form a latent image thereon. A degree of deposition of a toner on the latent image is sensed by a sensor and the toner supply to a developing unit is controlled in response to an output of the sensor. A fatigue standard is selected taking into account a fatigue characteristic particular to the photoconductor, so that a bias voltage applied to a developing roller in the developing unit is varied in response to the selected fatigue standard.

    摘要: A photoconductive drum (32) is charged, radiated with a light image of an original document (34) and developed to produce a toner image. The density of the toner image is sensed and additional toner fed to a developing unit (37) if the sensed density is below a predetermined value. The sensed toner density is compensated for variations in charge potential, light image intensity, electrostatic image potential, developing bias voltage, power supply voltage and/or sensor output so as to be independent of these variables.
