Step 1. Side fence check

Step 2. Skew Adjustment for front and back.

Step 3. Image Adjustment for front.

Step 4. Image Adjustment for back.

Step 5. Adjustment of magnification for back.

Step 1. Side fence check

Check the side fence status for each paper tray. If not correct, adjust the trays.

Step 2. Skew Adjustment for front and back.

Step 2-1 Set A3 or DLT plain paper (63.1-80.0 gsm) in Tray 2 and apply the paper tray settings.

Step 2-2 Print 5 copies of the test pattern Trimming Area (SP2109-003-14) in b/w and simplex.

Step 2-3 Measure the two locations [A] and [B] on all 5 copies.

Step 2-4 You need to make an adjustment with SP1-004-001 so that the average values of [A] and [B] are the same.

Front Side (1st Side)

Note: The arrow indicates the paper feed direction

Step 2-5 Make another 5 copies, this time in duplex.

Step 2-6 Measure the locations [C] and [D] on the back side.

Step 2-7 You need to make an adjustment with SP1-004-003 so that the average values of [C] and [D] are the same.

Back Side (2nd Side)

Note: The arrow indicates the paper feed direction

Step 3. Image Adjustment for front

Step 3-1 Set A3 or DLT plain paper (63.1-80.0 gsm) in Tray 2 and apply the tray paper settings.

Step 3-2 Print 5 copies of the test pattern Trimming Area (SP2-109-003-14) in b/w, simplex.

Step 3-3 Measure the distance [A] and [B] on all 5 copies and calculate the average.

Step 3-4 You need to make an adjustment with SP1-003-XXX so that the average values of [A] and [B] are the same. Refer to ‘Reference Information-2’ below.

(You can make an adjustment for each paper type with SP1-003-008 to 016 for IMSS setting in the Pro machine.)

Step 3-5 You need to make an adjustment with SP1-001-XXX so that the average values of [A] and [B] are the same. Refer to ‘Reference Information-2’ below.

(You can make an adjustment for each paper type with SP1-001-004 to 016 for IMSS setting in the Pro machine.)

Step 3-6 If you finished the adjustment, check that the value of [C] is more than 4mm.

  • If the value of [C] is less than 4mm, a jam may occur because of the fusing stripper pawls.
  • So adjust the value of [C] so that it is more than 4mm.

Note: The arrow indicates the paper feed direction

Step 4. Image Adjustment for back

Step 4-1 Print 11 copies of the test pattern Trimming Area (SP2-109-003-14) in b/w, duplex, and select 5 copies (from the 4th to the 8th copy) from among the 11.

  • The first 3 and the last 3 copies will not be used due to the higher possibility of image size variations.

Step 4-2 Measure the distances [A2], [B2], [C2] and [D2] on all 5 copies and calculate the average.

Note: The arrow indicates the paper feed direction

Solid line: Trimming area 1st side

Dashed line: Trimming area 2nd side

Step 4-3 You need to make an adjustment with SP1-003-006 so that the average values of [A2] and [B2] are the same. Refer to ‘Reference Information-3’ below.

(You can make an adjustment for each paper type with SP1-003-008 to 016 for IMSS setting in a Pro machine.)

Step 4-4 You need to make an adjustment with SP1-001-003 so that the average values of [C2] and [D2] are the same. Refer to ‘Reference Information-3’ below.

(You can make an adjustment for each paper type with SP1-001-004 to 016 for IMSS setting in a Pro machine.)

Step 5. Adjustment of magnification for back.

Step 5-1 Set A3 or DLT plain paper (63.1-80.0 gsm) in Tray 2 and apply the tray paper settings.

Step 5-2 Print 5 copies of the test pattern Trimming Area (SP2109-003-14) in b/w, Duplex.

Step 5-3 Measure the distance [A] and [B] on all 5 copies and calculate the average.

Step 5-4 You need to make an adjustment with SP2-102-043 so that the average values of [A3] and [B3] are the same. Refer to ‘Reference Information-4’ below.

(You can make an adjustment for each paper type with SP2-102-043 for IMSS setting in a Pro machine.)

Step 5-5 You need to make an adjustment with SP2-102-006 to 069 so that the average values of [C3] and [D3] are the same. Refer to ‘Reference Information-4’ below.

(You can make an adjustment for each paper type with SP2-102-006 to 069 for IMSS setting in a Pro machine.)

Reference Information-1 (Step 2. Skew adjustment for front and back)
  1. Check the SP value for the tray being used.
  2. Increase the value of the SP by 1 mm.
    1. Example: If the current value is 1 mm, input 2 mm into the SP.
  3. Print out.
    If you can’t solve the skew, repeat steps 1 to 3.
