Colour Registration

Each of the four image drums is responsible for producing that
part of the printed image corresponding to its particular colour.
The three primary colours and black are mixed in various
proportions to obtain other colours.
Of course, it is essential that each image drum cartridge produces
its part of the printed image at exactly the right place on the
page relative to each of the others.
If one cartridge, for example yellow, is slightly misaligned you
will notice slight traces of yellow at the edges of other colours
where yellow should not appear. This very precise alignment is
known as colour registration.

Although the four image drums were very accurately aligned
during the manufacturing and testing of your printer, it is
possible that one or more of them may have become slightly
misaligned during shipping. If you notice any symptoms like
that described above, you can easily check and adjust colour
registration using the menus and operator panel controls on
your printer.
These adjustments align the three colour cartridges precisely
to the black cartridge. Your printer has a series of resident test
patterns to help you.
The User's Guide supplied with your printer contains full
instructions for this and many other adjustments designed to
help you achieve the best possible results from your new colour
printer.
