Accurate Calibration Technology (X-ACT)
Use XANTÉ’s patented X-ACT feature to calibrate your printer in
two ways, through the front panel MISC:XACT menu or through
XANTÉ Command Center’s X-ACT menu.
Front Panel X-ACT
Your printer’s front panel MISC:XACT menu allows you to make
1/2 mm line length adjustments using the following procedure.
Note: To use the front panel XACT menu, you need a ruler with
1/2 millimeter rule. Also, you must use the paper cassette,
not the multipurpose feeder, when making X-ACT
adjustments. Adjustments for one size media apply to every
media size, so you do not have to make individual
adjustments for each size.
1. Make sure the printer is on and idle. Then, make sure that
media the size of your final output is loaded in the printer’s
paper cassette and the cassette is selected as the media source.
2. Press the Menu key until
SETUP:MISC
appears. Then, press
the Enter key.
3. Press the Menu key until
MISC:XACT
appears. Then, press
the Enter key.
4. Press the Menu key until
XACT TEST PAGE
appears. Then,
press the Enter key. A page prints with 2 lines, Line A and
Line B. The measurement listed by each line is the desired
length for that line on that media size. In this example, Tabloid
size 11" x 17" (257 mm x 431 mm) media is used. Line A
should be 251.46 mm and Line B should be 388.61 mm.
5. Measure Line A. Use the following procedure to adjust the
printer for the correct line length.
a. Note the amount Line A is over or under 251.46 mm.
