[Align printheads] - [Manual (horizontal)]

About this task

When you observe thin white or dark(er) lines along the length of the printed output, at positions that correspond with the printhead boundaries, and the automatic printhead alignment procedure does not completely solve the problem, you can perform an additional, horizontal manual printhead alignment.

Before you begin

  1. Align the printheads automatically.

  2. Print a suitable test print. If the problem is not completely solved, Identify the printhead transitions that need manual printhead alignment (horizontal).

Procedure

  1. On the user panel tap on [System].
  2. Tap on [Maintenance].
  3. Tap on [Align printheads].
  4. Tap on [Next].
  5. Select [Alignment type] [Manual (horizontal)] and tap on [Next].
  6. You can adapt the alignment values in several ways.
    • slide the rulers

    • tap on 'plus' or 'minus'

    Increase the value to make light lines on your test print darker, decrease the value to make dark lines on your test print lighter.

    Adjust the values and tap on [Finish].

    IMPORTANT

    Standing in front of the printer, position 0 is the outer left position and position 4 is the outer right position.
