Inspect the print samples for the proper print darkness.
Proper gap:
– If the FIXED 1.0 sample is dark, the FIXED 2.0 sample is light (gray), and the FIXED 3.0 sample is very
light with missing dots, the gap is set correctly for print quality.
– Go to AFTA Gap Check.
Gap is too small:
– If the FIXED 1.0 sample is dark, the FIXED 2.0 sample is also dark, and the FIXED 3.0 sample is light
(gray), you should create a FIXED 4.0 sample. The FIXED 4.0 sample should appear light, and exhibit
some missing dots.
– Using T&D10—AFTA calibrate test, increase the T&D10 adjustment value +2, and STORE, to increase the
wheel position 0.5.
– Rerun the samples to verify satisfactory results. After you are satisfied with the results, go to "AFTA Gap
Check" on page 148.
Gap is too large:
– If the FIXED 1.0 sample is light, the FIXED 2.0 sample is very light with missing dots, and the FIXED 3.0
sample is unreadable (due to lightness) the gap is too large.
– Using T&D10—AFTA calibrate test, decrease the T&D10 adjustment value −2, and STORE, to decrease the
wheel position 0.5.
– Rerun the samples to verify satisfactory results, and go to AFTA Gap Check.
