Skew

One printhead houses the four color planes. The black plane is aligned to the printer, and the color planes are
internally aligned to black. Electronic alignment fine tunes the alignment of the color planes to the black plane
once the printhead is installed. See
printhead alignment. This must be performed before color skew adjustment is attempted. The following
illustration shows proper alignment versus skewed alignment.
