When there is angular error in a head’s placement, the line formed by a particular Print Head will appear
broken, as shown in the image below:
Fig 43: Defect in Angle Check
Vertical Check
The vertical alignment test is performed to check the vertical alignment of all heads with reference to the
Magenta head. To execute vertical alignment test, click on the
Vertical Check
button on the
Calibration
Wizard
.
Samples of Good and Bad Vertical Alignment Test Result is shown in the below figure:
Fig 44: The Good and Bad Vertical Alignment Test Result
When a Print Head is aligned with the reference Print Head (Magenta), then in the test print this would
be evident by perfectly aligned vertical nozzle lines. In case of vertically misaligned Print Head, its nozzle
lines would be either above or below the reference head’s nozzle lines.
Similarly, check for other colors
(Black, Magenta, and Yellow) with the reference color (Magenta).
Note
: During the mechanical checks, it may possible that it will disturb the angle check or vertical check.
Thus, repeat the mechanical check until the perfect alignment condition is achieved.
