The engine controller is the source of video signals (VDO, /VDO) used for image formation. It is also the source of laser control signals (CNT0, CNT1)
sent to the logic circuit inside the laser driver IC for switching over laser operation modes.
The laser driver CI controls the laser with reference to combinations of CTN0 and CNT1 signals as shown in the following table:

2.3.2.2 Horizontal Synchronization Control
0008-0093
The machine controls horizontal synchronization so as to make sure that the image start position is correct in horizontal direction; specifically,
1. The engine controller turns the laser control signal into LD APC mode during an unblanking period (Note).
2. The BD PCB is located in the optical path of the laser beam to detect the beam.
3. When the BD PCB detects the laser beam, it uses the beam to generate the BD input signal (/BDI) for output to the engine controller.
4. In response, the video controller generates the horizontal sync signal (/BD) for output to the interface controller.
5. When the video controller receives the /BD signal, it sends video signals (VDO, /VDO) to the engine controller in a way that the image start position
will be correct in image horizontal direction.
The term "unblanking period" refers to a period of time in which the laser diode is turned on in a non-image area.
2.3.3 Laser Control
2.3.3.1 Auto Photo Current Control
0008-0094
The machine executes auto photo current control to make sure that the laser diode emits light at a specific level of intensity.
APC may be either initial APC (Note 1), which is executed during initial rotation, or interval APC (Note 2), which is executed during printing; however,
both of them are executed in the same way as follows:
1. When the laser control signal (CNT0, CNT1) is in LD APC mode, the laser driver forces the laser diode to go on.
2. The intensify of the light from the laser diode is checked by the photodiode (PD), and its current is converted into an appropriate voltage for comparison
against a reference voltage (equal to the target laser intensity).
3. The laser driver keeps controlling the laser current until the intensity of the light from the laser diode is equivalent to the level of voltage of the target
intensity.
4. Thereafter, when the laser control signal changes to LD forced deactivation mode, the LD is forced to go off, and the laser driver converts the voltage
into a capacitor voltage for retention.
