NOTE
Only trained operators who have permission to perform POC actions, and Service Technicians, are allowed to perform the paper path registration.
The paper path registration adjusts the registration for bulk media for printer-dependent offsets. Usually, the paper path registration is performed by a Service Technician at the installation or after a software upgradeThe paper path registration adjustment is a machine adjustment. The paper path registration is the basis of the media registration. The media-specific adjustment creates a difference with the bulk registration adjustment.
The Service Technician must perform the paper path registration adjustment after the replacement or disassembly of certain units.
After the trained operator replaced the heat exchanger foils, the trained operator must verify the media registration. If the media registration is not optimal, the paper path registration adjustment is required.
NOTE
After the bulk registration adjustment, the media-specific registration can be changed. It is recommended to verify the media registration for the specific media. If the media registration is not satisfactory, the media specific registration is required.
The tray for the A4/LTR bulk media is tray 1.
NOTE
You must first perform the paper path registration adjustment for A4/LTR and after that you must perform the paper path registration adjustment for A3/Ledger.
NOTE
When the optional bulk tray for small format is installed, make sure that bulk tray 1 contains A4 or Letter. Also, make sure that you have assigned A4 or Letter to bulk tray 1. If needed you must adjust the size of the tray (see Adjust the Size of the optional Bulk Tray for small Format).
WARNING
Only trained personnel is allowed to carry out POC actions.
If the printer has not warmed up, the registration starts with warming up the printer.
NOTE
Make sure that the registration sheets are placed correctly in the left-hand upper corner of the glass plate. Make sure that the registration sheet on the glass plate is not curled or has dog ears. You can use a stack of paper to reduce the curl.
You must close the ADF / cover for each scan.
The instructions for the paper path registration are the same as the instructions for the automatic media specific registration.
The tray for the A3/Ledger bulk media is tray 3.
If the front-to-back side registration is not satisfactory after you performed the paper path registration, you must check the actual sheet length in the feed direction. The paper path registration assumes nominal sheet length. If the actual sheet length differs from the nominal sheet length, you must enter the actual sheet size (see Registration Values). If the media registration is not correct you must perform the manual media registration for this media (see Option 2 - Manual Media Registration Adjustment (Only Needed in Incidental Cases)).
NOTE
Previously performed media specific registration can influence the media registration for bulk media. To verify the paper path registration, we therefore recommend to set all media specific registration settings to 0.
