In the print scale illustration, the X+ scale (left-to-right) contains three (3) rows of printed lines. Each line represents a print jet. The
prints are numbered 1, 2 and 3 for each of the three print jets. Print jet 1 always prints the middle scale so the scales of print jets 2 and
3 can be easily compared to it. Print jet 2 prints above print jet 1 and print jet 3 prints below print jet 1. For printers with only two (2) print
jets, the scale below the print jet 1 scale will not be printed.
The lines on the calibration print represent an offset of 0.1 mm and should be measured from the printed arrows in the center of the
scales.
Reading the Offset Jets Scale
Note the white arrow printed from print jet 2 and compare it to the positioning of the blue arrow printed by print jet 1. Note that the white
arrow is slightly left of the blue arrow meaning that print jet 2 is misaligned. Print jet 2 must be moved in a positive direction (right) to
align with print jet 1.
Compare the printed lines of print jet 1 and 2 to the right of the arrows and nd the printed lines that are properly aligned. In this
illustration, the lines at +0.3 are aligned. This means that the offset must be corrected by increasing the offset by .3 mm.
When comparing the arrow printed by print jet 3 to the arrow printed by print jet 1, notice it is positioned slightly to the right. This means
it must be adjusted in a negative (left) direction. Compare the lines of print jet 1 and 3 to the left of the center arrows and nd the
printed lines that are properly aligned, In this illustration, the lines at -0.3 are aligned. This means that the offset must be corrected by
decreasing the offset by .3 mm.
