determine which line is the straightest. In this example, the middle line
(numbered 5) is the best choice.

Enter to accept it (5 is the
default setting). Otherwise, use the
u or d button to select the number
of the straightest line, then press
Enter.
5. Repeat this process to examine the remaining color groups in row #1: C,
M, Lc, Lm, and Y. In each case, select the number of the straightest line,

Examining the BI-D BLACK (K1) Alignment Pattern
Follow these steps when the BI-D BLACK (K1) patterns finish printing:
1. Depending on the width of the paper loaded in the printer, more than
one set of patterns may be printed. Locate the patterns in the middle of
your printout. In the steps that follow, refer to those patterns to make
your adjustments, instead of the ones printed toward the left or right.
Note
You must use at least a
10× eye loupe to check
the pattern.
Look for the straightest line
Note
If number 5 is the
straightest line in each
group, the print head is
already properly aligned.
Press Pause to exit the
head alignment early.
Refer to middle set of patterns
when making adjustments
