18.2.1
Timing roller control
• The paper will create a loop between the tray 1 vertical transport roller (or ADU transport
roller 4) and the
regist motor
when the paper is being conveyed in order to correct the
skew.
• Timing roller is controlled in order to synchronize the timing the unit starts writing the
image and conveying paper.
A. Adjustment
• The amount of the loop of the paper can be adjusted in the “Service Mode - [Machine] -
[Printer Regist Loop]”. Changing the adjustment value will change the OFF timing of the
tray 1 vertical transport motor (or ADU transport motor 2).
