 Paper Registration
 The high-precision paper registration unit used in the D016 has
been adopted for use in this machine.
 The position of the paper in the paper path is corrected twice by
the paper registration unit in the main machine, once to correct for
skew and once for side-to-side registration.
 Paper registration is done once in the main machine. There is no
paper registration correction mechanism in the optional LCIT.
 Skew correction. The paper pauses very briefly in the registration unit so that its
leading edge hits a raised registration gate [1] to buckle the paper and align it.
 Side-to-side adjustment. After the registration gate lowers, the paper passes
through the shift roller unit, where a CIS [2] detects its front edge to determine if
the paper has shifted forward or back. If adjustment is needed, the shift roller
unit [3] holds the paper and moves forward or back to adjust the paper position
before the paper feeds to the paper transfer roller.
 The combination of laser VCSEL technology and paper registration correction
ensures that the image is always precisely positioned on the paper.
