Specify a mode of secondary transfer paper contact/separation.
High speed mode: Turns on full secondary transfer paper contact/separation mode.
Low pressure mode: Prints with reduced secondary transfer nip pressure.
Middle speed mode: Turns on secondary transfer paper contact/separation mode with the secondary transfer separation speed decreased to 85% of that of the high speed mode.
Low speed mode: Turns on secondary transfer paper contact/separation mode with the secondary transfer separation speed decreased to 40% of that of the high speed mode.
Low speed for all paper type mode: Turns on secondary transfer paper contact/separation mode with the secondary transfer separation speed decreased to 40% of that of the high speed mode and with the print speed set to low.
Off: Maintains contact state with no paper contact/separation.
Use this setting to reduce shock jitters that may occur with thick paper.
This setting helps to reduce shock jitters*1 by reducing shocks that may be caused when the trailing edge of the paper passes through the secondary transfer unit. The greatest jitter reduction effect is obtained in the high speed mode, followed by the middle speed mode, and then the low speed mode.
If the image density is lowered at the edge when the low speed mode is used, select the low speed for all paper type mode.

*1 The jitter occurs when the leading or trailing edge of paper that passes through the paper transfer unit is transmitted to the drum unit via the immediate transfer belt, causing banding.
