(Method 2)Use SIM67-25 to print the color balance adjustment sheet andcompare the black patch color balance of each process (CMY)with the black patch. This procedure allows checking the colorbalance adjustment result correctly.

*1: In the case of the GDI printer, this section is not printed.If the color balance of each patch of the process black (CMYmixed color) is slightly shifted to Magenta, it means that theadjustment is proper. If the color balance of the adjustmentpattern printed in this mode is slightly shifted to Magenta, it isconverted into the natural gray color balance by the color tablein an actual printer mode. (When the color balance target isDEF 1.)If a satisfactory result on the print color balance and the den-sity is not obtained with the automatic adjustment, execute themanual adjustment (SIM 67-25) (ADJ 21B).

L. Function and operation checkCheck that the following operations are normal.

M. Setup and adjustment data recordingPrint the various setup data and the adjustment data (list) withSIM22-6 and keep the data. In case of a memory trouble, if the data are not kept, all the

adjustments must be made again. If the data are kept, the setup values and the adjustment values

can be entered without adjustments, shortening the servicingtime.

3) On the touch panel, press [] to select "G: 50 :LCC." 4) Enter the desired adjustment value through the numeric key-

pad. (This value, which defaults to 50, can be adjusted within therange of 1 to 99). Reducing the adjustment value by 1 causes the main scan/

print position to shift by 0.1 mm toward the rear. Increasing the adjustment value by 1 causes the main scan/

print position to shift by 0.1 mm toward the front. 5) After entering the adjustment value, press the [EXECUTE] key

on the touch panel to start printing and save the setting.

6) Check that the adjustment pattern image is printed in the cor-rect position.Measure the dimensions of the void areas on the front- andrear-frame sides of the adjustment pattern image, and makesure that the following conditions are met:

No adjustment is needed if A - B = 0 3.0 mm.If the above condition is not met, do the following:

7) Change the adjustment value. (Enter a new adjustment value and press the [OK] key).Changing the adjustment value by 1 shifts the position byapproximately 0.1 mm. Repeat steps 4) to 6) until the condition shown in step 6) is sat-isfied.

8) After you have completed the adjustment, exit from simulationmode by pressing the [CA] key.

(2) Mechanical adjustmentSince the off-center adjustment is performed when shipping, thereis basically no need to perform this adjustment. If the center isshifted, however, the simulation is normally used. If the shift is notremoved, perform the following adjustment procedures.1) Slowly pull out the tray until it stops.
