Check the magenta line position against the black line.
If the registration roller is too fast or slow, the magenta
line appears above or below the black line.
Above: Speed is too fast: Decrease speed
Below: Speed is too slow: Increase Speed
When adjusting the speed, change the setting in 0.1
steps, and check the result by printing the grid pattern.
Then, repeat this until the shift between magenta and
black is minimized.
NOTE: If the registration roller is too fast, magenta jitter
may appear at 67 mm and/or cyan jitter at 165 mm from
the trailing edge. This is caused by the mechanical
shock when the trailing edge of the paper passes the
registration rollers.
