How to use test print pattern for correcting out-of-register colors (block pattern)
Align 3 toner colors (Y, C and K) with magenta (M) to make spacing equal at the leading edge and trailing
edge of the test print pattern.
* If spacing of the patterns at the leading edge and trailing edge of the printed pattern cannot be equalized at
a time, adjust the spacing to meet either of the following conditions:
• Make the upper spacing of the pattern at the leading edge equal to the lower spacing of the pattern at the
trailing edge.
• Make the lower spacing of the pattern at the leading edge equal to the upper spacing of the pattern at the
trailing edge.
* If the direction or the amount of out-of-register colors is not consistent, print out several copies of the test
print pattern to identify a pattern for the out-of-register colors (direction and amount). Then perform the
adjustment most suitable for it.

Align the print positions of Y, C and K to M
and make spacing equal.
To correct out-of-register colors:
• Decrease the value for Y.
• Decrease the value for C.
• Increase the value for K.
