B. Image Position Adjustment - Sharp AR-203E Service Manual

c. Adjustment procedure
1) Set the scale on the document table as shown below. (Use a
long scale for precise adjustment.)
2) Set the copy magnification ratio to 100%.
3) Make a copy on A4 or 81/2" x 11" paper.
4) Measure the length of the copied scale image.
5) Calculate the sub scanning direction copy magnification ratio
using the formula below.

6) Check that the actual copy magnification ratio is within the
specified range. (100 ± 1.0%).
If it is not within the specified range, perform the following pro-
cedures.
7) Execute SIM 48-1 to select the sub scanning direction copy
magnification ratio adjustment mode.
To select the adjustment mode, use the [Exposure mode selec-
tor] key (or [ ] [ ] key for the AR-M200/M201). (PHOTO
lamp ON (or SCAN mode lamp ON for the AR-M200/M201))
8) Enter the new set value of sub scanning direction copy magnifi-
cation ratio with the [Copy quantity] keys (or [Numeric] keys for
the AR-M200/M201), and press the [START] key.
Repeat procedures 1) - 8) until the sub scanning direction actual
copy magnification ratio in 100% copying is within the specified
range.
When the set value is changed by 1, the magnification ration is
changed by 0.1%.
