Adjusting 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.

3.Press the ENTER key. The display will show INITIALIZING for a few seconds and then PRINT PATTERN.

After a short delay the registration test pattern will emerge.

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.

If you notice any symptoms like that described above, you can easily correct colour registration using the operator panel controls on your printer. These adjustments align the three colour cartridges precisely to the black cartridge. Your printer has a built-in test pattern to help you.

1.Press the ON LINE key if necessary to take the printer

OFF LINE.

2.Press and hold the MENU 1 / Menu 2 key until the message COLOR REG ADJUST appears in the display panel, then release the button.
