Aligning the ink cartridges

The Color Deadband Compensation and Color Calibration tests are provided to
help you align the cartridges.
Color deadband compensation is a method for adjusting dot placement. In
bidirectional printing mode, the velocity of the carriage causes dots to miss the
target area on the media. The color deadband test pattern lets you check the
velocity deadband values and adjust them for the best printing results. A
magnifier is provided in the accessory box to help you check the prints.
