2. Blanking (Whiting) of Non-Image Areas for Reduction
In Reduce mode, the change solenoid (SL1) turns on, and the lens moves according
to the selected reproduction ratio. When the change solenoid (SL1) turns off, the drive of
the lens motor is transmitted to gears A and B, thereby moving the slide shutter (rear,
front) for the appropriate distance to open the exposure window. In this condition, the
light from the pre-exposure lamp is directed to the photosensitive drum by way of the
reflecting plate for size blanking.

3. Blanking (Whiting) Out the Leading/Trailing Edges and between Copies
The blank shutter solenoid drive signal (BSSSLD) turns on or off under the control of
the microprocessor (Q301) on the DC controller. The leading/trailing edge and the area
between copies are blacked (whited) out by opening the open/close shutter in this way.
