The sensing unit can automatically perform image position (media registration) and color density adjustments during printing. This reduces registration errors and colour drift in long-run-jobs, which results in high quality prints.
Cyclic and colored media are not supported by the sensing unit.
The default settings are installed in the Settings Editor. The sensing unit adjustment settings can also be changed on the control panel and in PRISMAsync Remote Manager at the job settings and Automated Workflow.

In continuous mode, the printer prints patterns in the trim areas of every sheet of the print job. The sensing unit automatically scans and measures the patterns, any deviations are corrected automatically by the system to ensure consistency in the print quality.
In interrupt mode, measurement charts are printed at an interval. The measurement charts are purged in the sensing unit tray. The sensing unit automatically scans and measures the measurement charts, any deviations are corrected automatically by the system to ensure consistency in the print quality. When the sensing unit tray is full, the user job continues but measurement charts are not printed anymore and the operator does not get feedback.
