5.1.1 Servicing Adjustment Item List
The following table describes the items, purposes and outlines of the Adjustment Program.
Table 5-1. Adjustment Items
Adjustment Purpose Method Outline
PF Belt Tension
Adjustment
To reduce the load on the PF motor and to ensure paper feeding accuracy. See Section 5.2.1 "PF Belt Tension Adjustment" on page 137.
PF Roller Shaft Center
Support Position
Adjustment
To compensate the deflection amount on the PF Roller Shaft and to
maintain the appropriate paper feeding amount.
See Section 5.2.3 "PF Roller Shaft Center Support Position Adjustment" on page 144.
PG Adjustment To ensure the correct distance between the head surface and the Front
Paper Guide, and to adjust the parallelism between the 0 digit side and the
130 digit side to ensure consistent print quality.
See Section 5.2.2 "PG Adjustment" on page 139.
Main Board Data
Read/Write
To read the required information from EEPROM on a defective Main
Board using the D4 function and to reduce the number of ancillary
adjustment items when the board is replaced.
1. Select this function in the Adjustment Program.
2. Read data from the defective Main Board.
3. After replacing the Main Board, write the data to the new board.
Market & Initial Settings To write the common information to the Main Board by the different
market settings, when the Main Board is replaced.
1. Select and execute this function in the Adjustment Program.
2. Write the market-by-market settings and initial settings to the EEPROM.
Market-by-market settings
Market ID
CSIC Printer ID
USB ID Input To identify the specific printer when using multiple printers of the same
model, an USB ID is given to each printer.
1. Select this function in the Adjustment Program and enter the serial number of the printer.
2. The correction value is saved to the specific EEPROM address of the Main Board.
Head ID Input To reduce head manufacturing variations, which may cause individual
differences in print quality, when the Printhead is replaced.
1. Enter the ID of the Head QR Code Label (24 digits), which is applied to the Printhead, into
the program.
2. The ID is stored in the EEPROM of the Main Board.
Supplement: Read the QR code label from left to right on the top row and from top to bottom
in due order.)
Head Angular Adjustment To correct the error in the Printhead mounting position (Head angle) to
make the nozzle line straight with respect to the paper feeding direction.
Angular displacement is also checked for.
1. Select this function in the Adjustment Program and print the adjustment pattern.
2. After checking the displacement amount of the pattern, enter the pattern number which has
the smallest amount of displacement.
Bi-D Adjustment To correct the print timing in the go and return paths in bi-directional
printing.
Use the adjustment program to print out the adjustment pattern, and enter the adjustment value
of the printed pattern with no black/white streaks in the block.
