C. Controlling Toner Level Detection
A toner sensor of a piezoelectric oscillation type (TS1) is mounted inside the developing
assembly to monitor the level of toner.
When toner exists inside the developing assembly, the output of the toner sensor goes '1'; when
the level of toner drops below a specific value, the output will go '0'.
The DC-CPU on the image processor PCB reads the output of the toner sensor while the
developing clutch (CL4) remains on. It then computes the 0's (most recent two cases) of the toner
sensor output, and indicates the Add Toner message in the touch panel as needed.
