Basic calibration
Preparations
To prepare for basic calibration you must activate the dryer system. This allows the platen to expand to reach
normal operating temperature.
Note
If the platen were allowed to remain cool for the procedure, the measurements and adjustments would be inaccu-
rate once the platen expanded during normal operation.
Wait at least 5 minutes after completing steps 1 and 2 below before proceeding with the Line Length Test in the
next section.
1.
Set dryer to 4 (Low Heat, Fans). At the control panel select Setup Menu/Dryer Menu/Dryer Setting. Select
Next or Prev to a setting of 4 and press OK.
2.
Activate the dryer. At control panel select Utility Menu/Service Menu/Diagnostics Menu/Accessory Menu/
Dryer Status. You will notice T1 and T2 (temperature sensors) will begin to slowly climb to a target value of
40°C (104°F).
3.
Ensure that both rear paper guides are not touching media edges – 2.5 mm (0.1") offset, minimum, on both
sides. This is very important as media drag may occur at either the left or right sides causing left or right side
micro-banding. Also ensure that the media is not rubbing or 'climbing' over guides at any time during
printing.
