ABSTRACT:
A corona charger in an electrostatographic reproduction apparatus includes a coronode and a power supply applying a voltage to the coronode. A detector detects pre-arc noise in the operation of the coronode and issues a signal that is used to adjust operation of the power supply to avoid arcing and/or to indicate a malfunction condition.
