Determining Values, Entering Values | Xerox Phaser 6280 instruction

Color Registration

Determining Values

From the lines to the right of the Y (yellow), M (magenta), and C (cyan) pattern, find the values of the straightest lines.

When “0” is the value nearest the straightest line, you do not need to adjust the color registration. When the value is not “0”, follow the procedure outlined in “Entering Values”.

Note: You can also use the densest colors of the grid to find the straightest lines. The colors printed at the highest density are those next to the straightest lines.

10.Press the Up Arrow or Down Arrow button until Color Reg Chart displays, then press the Forward Arrow or OK button. The Color Registration Correction Chart is printed with the new values. When printing is finished, the print screen is displayed again.

If “0” is not next to the straightest lines, determine the values and adjust again.
