After the copyboard cover sensor has identified a "closed" state, the machine checks for a change in the output level of the original sensor (CCD point of
detection) for 3 sec. If there is no change in the level of output, the machine identifies the condition to indicate the presence of an original.
The machine uses combinations of changes in the levels of 6 locations to identify the size of the original:
F-5-23
6) Standby (in wait for a press on the Start key)

When reading an original, the machine changes the point of reading or corrects image data in reference to the presence/absence of dust on the stream reading glass/
ADF platen roller, thereby avoiding the effects of dust on images. The machine executes this control only when the ADF is used and, in addition, when it is closed.
1. Timing of Control
(1) at the end of a job
(2) between sheets (each time a sheet is read)
(3) at the start of a job (only if any of the following is met)
(a) first job after power-on
(b) presence of dust at all points of detection at the end of the previous job
(c) failure of dust detection at the end of the previous job (e.g., the ADF is opened)
