5.Measure the distance from the leading edge of the card to the leading edge of the transferred image.
6.Calculate the Transfer TOF value for inches or mm.
Inches: 60 – (Measurement x 300):
Millimeters: 60 – (Measurement x 11.8).
Example: Inches: 60 – (.050 x 300) = 45:
7.Adjust the Transfer TOF value.
8.Press SELECT to save the value.
9.Print a test card as described in step 1.
10.Repeat steps 1 to 9 until the test image is correctly positioned.
7.3.5 Setting the Transfer EOF
This procedure controls the point on the card at which the Transfer Roller lifts, and ceases transfer. Refer to Section 7.3.1 for proper sequence.
1.Choose MENU, Print Test Image, and Gray/Align YMC to print a test card.
2.Examine the test card. The Inner Alignment Arrows should appear at the trailing edge, and the Outer Alignment Arrows should not appear on the card. If your test card does not look Figure
3.Record the Transfer EOF value on the test card last printed.
4.Select MENU, Setup Printer, and Transfer EOF.
5.Measure the distance from the trailing edge of the card to the trailing edge of the image transfer.
6.Calculate the Transfer EOF value for inches or mm.
Inches:
Example: Inches:
7.Adjust the Transfer EOF value. Decrease the Transfer EOF value to move the end of the transferred image toward the leading edge of the card; increase the Transfer EOF value to move the end of the transferred image toward the trailing edge of the card. Remember, ±30 pixels will move the transferred image 0.100 in. (3.84mm.)
8.Press SELECT to save the value.
9.Print a test card as described in step 1.
10.Repeat steps 1 to 9 until the test image is correctly positioned. Refer to Figure
NOTE
If the inner alignment arrows are not printing on the card — but are just off the edge — decrease the Print Offset setting by two or three pixels. The entire inner alignment arrow will not show up on the card. More important is that the card shows equal amounts of the arrows.
