Note: Before performing this adjustment, be sure to check that the paper off center is properly adjusted. (SIM 50-10)

1)Make a test chart as shown below and set it so that its center line is fit with the original guide center mark.

* To make a test chart, draw a line on A3 or 11" x 17" paper at the center in the paper transport direction.

2)Make a normal copy from the manual paper feed tray, and com- pare the copy and the test chart.

If necessary, perform the following adjustment procedures.

3)Execute SIM 50-13.

4)After warmup, shading is performed and the current set value of the off center adjustment is displayed on the display section in 2 digits.

5)Enter the set value and press the start key. The set value is stored and a copy is made.
