relationship between electrical and mechanical systems with reference to the timing of
operation.

T-0-1 when '0'.
In practically all cases, the internal mechanisms of a microprocessor cannot be checked in
the field. Therefore, the operations of the microprocessors used in the machines are not
discussed: they are explained in terms of from sensors to the input of the DC controller
PCB and from the output of the DC controller PCB to the loads.

The descriptions in this Service Manual are subject to change without notice for product
improvement or other purposes, and major changes will be communicated in the form of
Service Information bulletins.
All service persons are expected to have a good understanding of the contents of this Service
Manual and all relevant Service Information bulletins and be able to identify and isolate faults
in the machine.

Commands C:\>

The FTP server complies with the RFC 959 -- File Transfer Protocol -- but provides only
printing function. Thus the server does not support other functions required as a RFC 959
compliant server. The commands available for the FTP client are "user," "password," "bin,"
"put," "bye," "hash," and "help." There is no use of other commands since the server does
not provide functions other than printing. The following lists the notes to use the commands.
- To send print data with the command "put," set the mode to the binary mode using the
command "bin." In the ascii mode, the data cannot be sent with the command "put."
If the user and password fields are blank, any user with any password can log in. If the
user name "anonymous" is used, any character string can be entered as the password.
The device displays the string in User filed of Log screen.
Number of Connections and Used Ports
The maximum number of concurrent connections is three. If a user attempts to connect to
the FTP server with which three connections have been established, the user cannot log
in and fails in connection. The default port for the FTP server is 21. There is no measure
provided to change the port.
The control port time-out is set to 300 seconds. You need to re-connect to the server if you
have left the connection for 300 seconds or more after logging in. The data port time-out is
60 minutes.

and gradation correction (gradation deviation correction). It does not refer to EXIF information
that contains the information at camera shot.

Red eye correction

This detects the red eye from the picture image that occurs due to flash or strobe light at
shooting and corrects it into black.
This detects and corrects the red eye regardless of races (this works for blue or gray color
eyes etc.).
Also, this can detect and correct the red eye even though only a half face is printed (detection
for one-eye).

Regarding the correction capability

This targets the red eye which size is approx. 1% against the short edge of image and may
not correct the extremely big or small red eyes. The minimum possible red eye size for
correction is 3 pixel.
This can work for blue or gray color eyes because red eye occurs inside the pupil. Eye
color is the color outside the pupil.

It is possible to adjust the level to decrease the color saturation corresponding to the setting
value of red eye correction level.
Red eye detection is the same even though the correction level is changed.

Possible Situation
A license may be used on a different device through transfer, as when replacing the device
at the end of a lease agreement. To do so, the user must first invalidate the existing license
by performing a set of steps referred to as "invalidation of a license" using service mode. At
times, both source and target of transfer may be the same device, and a license therefore
may also be invalidated only temporarily. It is important to note that the user must contact
the Sales Company to make a license good regardless of whether it has been invalidated F-4-3
