Printer Menus

Using the Service Menu

To access the Service Menu, the printer must be OFF LINE. If the printer is ON LINE, press the On Line button once so the indicator above the button turns off. Then, press and hold the Menu button and – button simultane- ously to display the ServiceMenu.

The Setup Menu is used by an operator to adjust the alignment of the print cartridges using the ‘Adjust Print’ function. (The other two functions available—"Test Sys- tem" and "Test Display"— are primarily intended for use by a Pitney Bowes Service Representative.)

1. Adjust Print

Use this function to adjust the alignment of the three print cartridges if ‘stepped’ or misaligned prints are seen.

A. Head 2 up down

B. Head 3 up down

C. Head 5 up down

D. Head 6 up down

Use options A through D to vertically synchronize the individual Print Cartridges.

Example: Print out an adjust print Test Pattern by pressing the Test button while in the Adjust Print menu. The printer will print a Test Pattern like this:

Head 3 is printing too high

A-28
