Transfer Output Adjustment for Trail Edge
This option raises or lowers the transfer voltage timing to the 2nd Bias Transfer Roll, which in turn
reduces trail edge deletions on the output. Select between
0-100%
. The default setting is
100%
.
Note:
This adjustment should not be used for trail edge flip problems which are caused by
heavyweight stock.
Adjustment of Paper Speed at Transfer
Note:
This option is used very infrequently.
In the press, the distance between the Second Transfer and Fuser is very small. When feeding large
paper sizes, the paper is nipped (gripped) simultaneously by both the Second Transfer and Fuser.
Occasionally, the paper is pulled between the Second Transfer and Fuser, which can cause paper
damage or image defect on the output. When this happens, this option allows you to make very small
adjustments in order to successfully feed paper through the Second Transfer and Fuser areas without
damage or defects.
The adjustment amounts range from
-0.50%
to a maximum of
0.50%
. The default is
0
(zero).
Fuser Temperature Adjustment
This option allows the user to adjust the fuser temperature for specific media types. Under most
conditions, the press adjusts the fuser temperature automatically at point of need. However, on
infrequent occasions the user can minimally adjust the fuser temperature for specific stock weights or
a specific job flow.
For Example
The printed output shows signs of offset or flaking dry ink/toner. This can be caused by specific media
or stock (such as coated or silk media), and the fuser temperature can be too low or too high.
• The temperature of the fuser can be adjusted within a range of
-10° to +10° Celsius
(14° - 50°
Fahrenheit).
• 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.
• Changing the default setting is considered as 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.
Fuser Speed Adjustment
This option allows the user to adjust the fuser speed for when there is a smear on the output print at
208 mm from the lead edge. This smear is caused by a speed mismatch between the paper lead edge
in the fuser nip and the middle of the paper in the Second Transfer nip.
If this smear occurs on the output print (at 208 mm from lead edge), the fuser speed can be
increased (up to +2 or 3%). This helps to correct this defect.
Alignment Profile
Selecting the
Alignment Profile
button opens the Alignment Profile Library. This library is populated
with all the saved alignment profiles for the system. A user can select a desired profile, as required.
The selected profile then appears in the
Alignment Profile
field which is above the button.
