Problem
In order to maintain image quality (IQ), the press will enter Adjust Image Quality mode. In this
mode, dry ink/toner is consumed in the form of dry ink/toner bands and process control patches
being laid down. Frequency of image quality adjustment is dependent on many factors including
area coverage. While printing jobs of low area coverage or low image density, the frequency of
image quality adjustment may be greater.
Solution
Three NVM values can be adjusted to reduce dry ink/toner consumption based on user
requirements. Refer to the following table. From the first column of the table, select the solution
which best fits user requirements. To implement the appropriate outcome for your environment,
contact your customer service representative.
Important:
NVM values must be set or changed only by the customer support
representative.
User Requirement
Solution
1. Image Quality (IQ) Priority
These are the press default settings which provide
optimum IQ output, but increase dry ink/toner
consumption and may reduce productivity.
For this user requirement, to change the NVM
values for 762–075, 752–175, and 762–098,
contact your customer support representative.
2. Middle Setting
This is the recommended setting.
These settings configure the press for less dry ink/toner
usage if image quality is not the highest priority. IQ
may be slightly reduced.
For this user requirement, to change the NVM
values for 762–075, 752–175, and 762–098,
contact your customer support representative.
3. Lower Toner Consumption Priority
These settings decrease dry ink/toner usage and
increase productivity, but may result in degraded IQ.
For this user requirement, to change the NVM
values for 762–075, contact your customer
support representative. For the NVM values 752–
175 and 762–098, no change is required.
