Abstract
A toner monitor in an electrostatographic machine is automatically calibrated when a toner monitor is periodically caused to read a simulated nominal toner concentration. Any difference between the monitor's output and that expected for the simulated nominal toner concentration is applied to a compensation device. The simulated nominal toner concentration signal is obtained by periodic alignment of the toner monitor with a magnetically permeability member.
