Although this page at first appears complicated, upon
examination you will see that it actually has 9 areas which
are virtually identical. There are three adjustments for each
colour, and these adjustments are simply repeated. The
whole process should take no more than about 10 minutes.
Each area shows boxed sections, most of which have some
colour inside them. Ideally, the centre boxes — those
corresponding to the numbers +2 to –2 should be almost
free of colour, like the box shown by itself, which contains
no colour at all.
Once the test pattern has appeared the printer displays
ADJUST #1 ready for adjustment. This relates to area 1 on
the test pattern.
4. Examine area #1 on the test pattern closely and identify
which of the numbered boxes contains no colour (or which
contains the least colour). That number is the setting which
should be entered on the printer menu. Use the
←←

keys to increment or decrement the setting if a number other
than 0 is required. When the display shows the number you
want, press the ENTER key to enter it. An asterisk (*) will
appear in the display.
5. Press the MENU 1 / Menu 2 key to move forward to
ADJUST #2.
The rest of the 9 settings are similar. Although this may at
first seem a little complicated, by the time you have
completed 2 or 3 settings it will become fairly a simple and
straight forward procedure to adjust colour registration.
You may find colour registration adjustment quicker and
easier if you examine all nine areas first, making a note in
each area of the test pattern of any numerical adjustment
needed (simply write nothing in the areas which do not
need adjustment). You can then speed through the nine
adjustments, entering the values you have noted.
