Print Length Accuracy Calibration

To measure and adjust after printing a test plot, go to Positioning ->Print Length Adjustment
in Engine Maintenance mode. See (1).
If you know the condition or value you want to calibrate beforehand, you can do so via
Parameters 718 to 724 in Engine Maintenance mode. See (2).
This section provides primarily supplementary details about the overall calibration procedure
and operations involved. For operation panel display and key operations related to thespecific
steps required in Engine Maintenance mode, see:
2.3.13 Positioning (p. 2-28);
2.3.14 Parameter (p. 2-38); or
2.5 Technician Menu Functions (p. 2-49).
Note
Choose A1 plain paper, width for paper type and paper width. However, if the usage conditions for
the user's paper are limited, you can calibrate the print length accuracy under those conditions.
(1) Print a test plot, measure, and calibrate the print length
The calibration procedure below is recommended, for example when:
- Parts are replaced, or
- The EEPROM data is set to its default value.
You can only calibrate for roll paper using this procedure. For A4 cut paper, refer to the method
described in subsection (2).
1.
Enter Engine Maintenance Mode and select Positioning.
2.
Select Print Length Calibration.
3.
Select the roll paper you want to use.
- Print length accuracy calibration can be performed starting with any roll paper.
Note
For the first test plot, leave the configured correction value at its default value.
4.
Select Start Print and print a test plot.
Three sheets of the plot are printed in succession with 1189 mm (46.81 inches) print length.
