Calibrating the Printer
Your printer has been calibrated at the factory so that vertical
lines in your text and graphics are properly aligned. If you
notice misaligned images in printouts, however, you can
calibrate the printer with the Bi-D Calibration Utility. You may
need to do this after moving the printer to a new location, for
example.
You can copy the Bi-D Calibration Utility from the Windows
printer driver diskette to your hard disk, or run it from the
diskette when needed. You calibrate the printer twice—once
with the monochrome print head installed and once with the
color print head installed. Follow these steps:
1. If you did not install the Bi-D Calibration Utility on your
hard disk, insert the driver diskette in your computer’s
diskette drive.
2. Make sure Windows is running.
3. To start the Bi-D Calibration Utility using Windows 3.1
Program Manager, choose
Run
from the File menu. The
Run dialog box appears.
To start it using Windows 95, click
Start
; then choose
Run
.
4. In the Command Line box (Windows 3.1) or the Open field
(Windows 95) type the drive and directory name where the
utility is located. For example, type
A:CALIBRAT
(or
C:\
directory
\CALIBRAT
if it is on your hard disk). Then
choose
OK
.
5. When you see the Calibration Utility screen, verify that
Stylus COLOR IIs
is selected as the printer for calibration. If
it isn’t, use
↑
or
↓
to select it.
Also make sure
Print Calibration Pattern
is selected at the
bottom of the screen. (Use the
Tab
key to move down and
↑
to select it, if necessary.)
