When running a test print for the first time, there is no need to enter a Change Percentage
value for either Side 1 or Side 2
6. Select
Start
.
The press generates 16 patches on a single test print:
• Patches 1–10 have more bias applied to them (more transfer voltage)
• Patches -1 through -5 have less bias applied to them (less transfer voltage)
• Patch 0 is the median range; this is the default value
7. Retrieve the test print from the output area of the press.
The PredictPrint Media Manager displays a message to select either
Bias Acceptable
or
Adjust
Test Prints
. Continue to the next step.
8. Evaluate the printed output for the patch with the best image quality. For example, the best
image quality is on
Patch# 2
.
9. In the Patch number field for Side 1 and Side 2, enter the correct number of the patch with the
best image quality.
10. Select
Bias Acceptable
.
• The current window closes and displays Advanced Stock Setup.
• A new value is displayed in the Side 1 field or Side 1 and Side 2 fields, depending on which
Sides Imaged option was selected earlier in this procedure.
11. To save and close the Advanced Stock Setup window, select
OK
.
12. To save and close the Stock Properties window, select
OK
.
13. Run a few prints from a job that uses the Stock Properties with the new Secondary Transfer
Voltage Manual Adjustment setting.
This verifies whether or not the changes made to the Secondary Transfer Voltage Adjustment
option are providing the desired printed output.
14. Retrieve and review the printed output for image quality. Choose one of the following:
• The printed output is acceptable: continue with normal workflow processes.
• The printed output is unacceptable: Repeat the steps of this procedure and if the output
continues to be unacceptable, contact the Customer Support Center for further assistance.

When paper is exposed to heat, the paper loses moisture and curls toward the heat source. High dry
ink/toner coverage jobs tend to curl more due to the dry ink/toner plastification effect on the paper
surface.
Many variables can cause Paper curl, which includes:
• The weight of the paper and whether it is coated or uncoated
• The amount of dry ink/toner and the area that is covered on a sheet: the heavier the coverage,
the greater the tendency to curl
• How the paper is loaded in the tray, load the paper as instructed on the ream wrapper
