Order of the Media Registration Actions

Order of the Media Registration Actions
Introduction
When the media registration is not optimal, you can take various actions to solve the
misalignment. This section describes the order of the actions you must take.
Media Registration Options
Option
Automatic media registration
via the control panel.
Media-Specific Registration
See
on page 91.
Manual media registration.
Only needed in incidental cases.
The manual media registration
can be done via the control pan-
el (see Via the Control Panel on
page 96) and via the Settings
Editor.
The manual media registration
via the control panel is prefer-
red because you can print the
verification chart immediately
after you changed a setting.
Both procedures have the same
result.
If the printer is not warmed up, the media registration starts by warming up the printer.
After you performed one of the media registration options, you can print a verification chart to
verify the media registration adjustment. See
on page 89.
It can occur that the media registration for a media is correct but the image overlaps some
preprinted parts of the media. You must shift the image for that specific preprinted media (see
Corrections for Preprinted Media on page
Order of the Actions
Procedure
1.
Perform the automatic media registration on the control panel for the media of your current job.
Print the job again or print the verification chart to verify if the media registration is correct now.
If the media registration is not optimal, continue with step 2 below.
2. Perform a manual media registration adjustment via the control panel (preferred) or via the
Settings Editor. Only needed in incidental cases. E.g. media registration is not optimal, media is
1-sided.

When
Media registration is not opti-
mal.
Only when the media registra-
tion is not optimal after you per-
formed the automatic media
registration via the control pan-
el.
Or when the media is 1-sided
media, because the automatic
media registration prints a 2-si-
ded registration print. Examples
of 1-sided media are tab sheets
and transparency media with
paper backing.
