Not Parallel; There Is A White Gap Before The Horizontal Line - Direct Color Systems Direct Jet 1024UVHS Maintenance And Troubleshooting Manual

6. To adjust the print home sensor, look carefully at the printed picture. Verify that the black line
across the top of the page is parallel and is .500" (12.7mm) thick. Verify that the vertical line is
exactly 1.000" (25.4mm) thick. See below if any of these conditions is not met.

Not Parallel

If the black line across the top is not parallel with the edge of the paper then the Photo
Paper may not have been aligned properly, go back to step 2 and reprint the picture. If you
are sure the paper was aligned properly and the black line does not appear parallel, the print
engine is not aligned with the front edge of the slide table. Contact Direct Color Systems tech
support.
Horizontal line is less than .500"
If the black line is less than .500" then the print home sensor must be moved toward the left
by the difference between the width of the black line and .500".
1. Raise the elevator to its maximum height.
2. Loosen the locking screws holding the sensor.
3. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to move the
sensor toward the far left position. One full rotation of
the adjustment screw equals approximately .025".
Tighten the locking screws and reprint the test page to
verify the adjustment is correct.

There is a white gap before the horizontal line

If there is a white gap before the .500" thick line then
the start print sensor must be moved toward the right
to close this gap.
1. Raise the elevator to its maximum height.
2. Loosen the locking screws holding the sensor.
3. Turn the adjustment screw counter-clockwise to
move the sensor toward the far left position.
One full rotation of the adjustment screw equals
approximately .025". Tighten the locking screws
and reprint the test page to verify the
adjustment is correct.
