Adjusting the Side Registration on Tray 2 Printouts

This section tells you how to adjust the side registration on tray 2 printouts.

If you are using the optional tray 2 paper feeder and you notice that the margins on your printouts are not the same as when you use the tray 1 paper feeder, you may need to adjust the tray 2 side registration to match that of tray 1 (approximately 2 mm or 0.08 inches).

You can set the side registration adjustment dial from 0 to 9. The value on the top part of the dial is the current value. The dial is set to 5 at the factory. When you increase the dial value by 1, the left-side registration increases by approximately 0.4 mm (0.16 inches). When you decrease the dial value by 1, the left-side registration decreases by approximately 0.4 mm (0.16 inches).

Use the following procedure to adjust the left-side registration.

1.Load tray 2 with the same size of paper that is in tray 1 (see “Loading Paper” on page 3–2).

2.Turn on the printer and wait until it is ready to print.

3.Change the paper source to tray 2 (see “Choosing the Paper Source” on page 4–14).

4.Locate the density control panel on the back of the printer.

5.Print a test print (see “Printing Test Prints from the Density Control Panel” on page 6–24). Choose the Solid Colors test print pattern.
