Alignments/Adjustments

The ENCAD T-200 and T-200+ printers are designed with a minimum
of maintenance requirements in mind. Calibrations include: color
calibration, deadband alignment, and X-axis calibration. The mechani-
cal adjustment requirements include the slide shaft profile and car-
tridge head height adjustments. They do not require any electrical
alignments.

Slide Shaft Profile Adjustment

The T-200 and T-200+ printer Slide Shaft height is factory set and is
firmly mounted on the outer sides and only has adjustments in the
middle portion of the shaft, to remove any bowing of the shaft's profile.
The following procedure is to ensure that the Slide Shaft is relatively
perpendicular to the surface of the Platen and to remove any bowing
that may be present in the shaft's profile.
The Slide Shaft is set to 1.418" (36cm) from the top of the Slide Shaft to
the Platen surface for these printers. The normal operating range for
the height of the Slide Shaft is between 1.390" (35.3cm) to 1.440"
(36.6cm).
