Once the application is installed, run the program
and select the Particular Adjustment Mode . A pop-
up window ( Setting ) will ask you to select the Port
to which your printer is connected. Scroll through
the list and select Epson Stylus Photo 1800. This is
your Fast T-Jet 3.
You will then be taken to the Main Selection
Screen. From here you will select the first Utility to
run- Head Angular Adjustment .
Head Angular Adjustment
You will need to place a standard 8.5” x 11”
sheet of paper on a Shirtboard to perform this
procedure. Once the paper is loaded, press Print
and the Fast T-Jet 3 will print two groups of parallel
lines labeled Band Pass Incline 0 > > 80 and Band
Pass Incline 0 < < 80. These groups of lines will be
assigned numbers from -6 to 6. The lines to either
side of the numbered lines are marked NG and
these are not used for calibration. A third printout
labeled Head Incline will print at the bottom of the
page and will consist of seven boxes broken into
horizontal line segments. The five boxes of concern
will be numbered 70 to – 70.
Examine the first group parallel lines labeled Band Pass Incline 0 > > 80 and note
which set contains the straightest segment. If you look closely, you will see most
of the lines are slightly offset in the middle. Note the number of the one with NO
offset and enter this in the applicable data field by placing a checkmark in the
Band box and entering the line segment number in the box next to the correct
group name. Next, examine the second group of lines and select the straightest
segment from that group. Enter that line’s number in the next data field.
Place a check in the Raster Offset box and examine the set of boxes under
the heading Head Incline . Select the set of interlocking lines that interlock but
that DO NOT overlap any line above or below it. Enter this number into the
applicable data field.
Click on Input and the application will do some calculations before placing its
own data in the fields. Once the calculations are complete, click on Finish and
you will be taken back to the main selection screen.
