Press the [
Test]
button
to print out a Test
Pattern. Check the
Test Pattern to
determine where
Banks A is printing on
the media.
Use this option to set this distance between the
sensor and the first head in bank A.
Set each Bank of Print Heads to work together
(synchronized) or to work independently in different
locations on the media. Check the Test Pattern to
determine which Banks are in need of
synchronization or for relocating the position of a
bank on the media.
I. Bank B to
Sensor
00.500
to
36.000
Press the [
Test]
button
to print out a Test
Pattern. Check the
Test Pattern to
determine where
Banks B is printing on
the media.
Use this option to set this distance between the
sensor and the first head in bank B.
Set each Bank of Print Heads to work together
(synchronized) or to work independently in different
locations on the media.
For ease of illustration the following example will deal with synchronizing Bank A and Bank B together.
It is assumed the Banks of Print Heads have already been mechanically aligned next to each other
Example:
Print out an adjust print Test
Pattern by pressing the
[Test]
button while in the
Adjust
menu. The printer will
print a Test Pattern like the
example on the right. The
adjust print Test Pattern
consists of three rows of
different patterns, the first
wide line and the eighteen
vertical lines are used for
synchronizing Bank A and
Bank B.
Head 3 Bank A
Head 3 Bank A
Head 2 Bank A
Head 5 Bank B
Head 4 Bank B
Head 6 Bank B
Head 5 Bank B
Head 4 Bank B
Head 6 Bank B
Head 2 Bank A
Head 1 Bank A
Head 1 Bank A
When the two pattern do not match to form long vertical lines,
perform the following steps. In the example to the right the wide
vertical line on the left and 18 thin vertical lines indicate Bank B
needs a horizontal print adjustment.
Rule of Thumb
: Take the
distance from the previous bank of print heads that want to align the
next bank with and add 3.5 inches. As an example if Bank A is 7.000
then Bank B starts at 10.500.
Head 3 Bank A
Head 2 Bank A
Head 5 Bank B
Head 4 Bank B
Head 6 Bank B
Head 1 Bank A
Press the [
Enter]
button to select the desired value. An Asterisk (*)
will appear in front of the new selection.
When correct all vertical lines should be straight.
