Note:
The
Aligner Roll Pressure
option is used in conjunction with the
Pre Gate Roll
Adjustment
option. Before using
Aligner Roll Pressure
, you must first switch on the
Pre Gate
Roll Adjustment
. For more information, refer to
.
Refer to the following two examples:
Example 1
Some coated, heavier paper types slip and skew, thereby misregistering the image on the output
prints. In this case, you may want to increase the roll pressure in order to compensate for the
slippage and skewing.
Example 2
Some light-weight papers may have too much roll pressure applied to them, thereby causing edge
damage to the output prints. In this case, you may want to decrease the roll pressure.
Increasing the roll pressure for some faults may allow you to postpone a service call. However, you
may want to call your service representative as soon as possible in order to restore the machine to its
full feeding capabilities.
The default setting is
0
(zero). It is recommended that you leave this option at its default setting until
you run test prints and evaluate the output of the prints.
Note:
Changing the default setting should be considered a temporary solution because
environmental conditions vary from day to day. It is recommended that upon completion of
the print job, you return the option to its default setting.
Regi-Loop
Use this option to adjust and correct skew that may be occurring in the lead direction of the sheet as
it is being fed through the paper path. Adjusting the loop varies the amount of paper buckle that
occurs against the registration gate, and thereby optimizes the correction of lead skew.
Tip:
Regi-Loop
is used in conjunction with
Alignment Profile
. Before using the
Regi-Loop
option, first use the
Alignment
feature; if adjusting the alignment is unsuccessful; then adjust
the
Regi-Loop
option. For information and instructions, refer to
The following illustration shows the sheet as it is being fed through the paper path and the area
where the loop amount occurs.
• Adjustment ranges from -3.0 mm (-0.118 in.) to +3.0 mm (+0.118 in.), and the amounts may be
set to as low as 0.3 mm (0.0118 in.).
• If the variation of lead skew is large, then increase the loop amount in the plus (+) direction.
Depending on the paper type or weight (g/m
2
) and if f the loop is too large, then damage may
occur on the lead edge of the paper.
