Tests, Utilities & Calibrations
• Print Calibration Pattern - The Printer first calibrates the Analog Encoder and then prints the Paper
Advance Calibration pattern.
• Scan Calibration Pattern - The Printer scans the Paper Advance Calibration pattern in order to
calibrate the nominal advance of the media.
• Clean Drive Roller - After loading media that the customer will use, the Printer “prepares” the media
path to prevent any future advance problems.
Procedure
1. Go to Service Menu >5. Service Calibration Menu>5.3 Substrate Path Menu.
2. Select ‘Print Calibration Pattern’.
3. When the following message displays on the front panel, you must select whether you would like to
continue with the calibration by pressing the OK key. Press Back or Cancel to exit the calibration.
4. The Printer will start to calibrate the Analog Encoder and the following message will be displayed on
the Front Panel.
If the Calibration is not done or if the values are out of the limits, a warning message will display on
the Front Panel. In this case, try the following:
• Check that the Printer has the latest Firmware version. If not, update the Firmware to the latest
version.
• Retry the Paper Advance Calibration.
NOTE: Only scan the Calibration Pattern in the Printer that was used to actually print it.
Using the Calibration in a different Printer could cause it to experience media advance
problems. After scanning the Calibration Pattern, it should be discarded.
NOTE: Make sure that you unload media from the Printer before performing the Paper
Advance Calibration.
NOTE: Disabling the Heaters ‘1.8.2’ will significantly speed up this procedure.
