Aligning the
Print Heads
DOC-34014 Rev. C
You should check the alignment of the print heads—
•
once a month
•
after replacing one or more heads
•
if model quality is not acceptable even after cleaning the orifice plate on
the bottom of the print block (see "Cleaning the Print Heads and the
Roller" on page 19)
This procedure takes about 20 minutes.
To check the alignment of the print heads:
1. Prepare—
•
a transparency sheet, at least 10.5 × 13 centimeters in size (4.5 × 5.5
inches)—about one‐quarter of the standard A‐4 or Letter size
•
any type of sticky tape, to fasten the transparency sheet to the build
tray
2. Start the Head Alignment wizard from the Options menu (see
figure 6‐28 on page 23).
3. Click to begin, and close the cover.
Next
4. In the wizard screen, select the check box to confirm that the cover is
closed, and click Next

5. When instructed to do so, place the transparency on the build tray—
near the left and rear edges of the tray, as shown in the following
figure.

tray.
