ADJ 4.4.9 Registration
Purpose
The purpose of this procedure is to allow the scanner to determine correct timing values for
actuation of the two document edge sensors, enabling the scanner to correctly register the
lead edge of the document prior to the start of a scanning operation.
NOTE: The tost patterns are stored Inside the Document Feed Tray.
Check
Perform the following:
1. When the scanner has completed Power On Sell Test (POST) Insert a black test pattern
into the printer. Allow the document to be transported to the starting position.
2. (Figure 1): Examine the position of the lead edge of the document. The lead edge should
be within +/• 0.25 inches (0.64 cm) or the middle of the Platen Window, if the position
does not appear to be correct, continue on with this procedure.

was successful; otherwise, FAILED Is displayed. If FAILED is displayed, repeat the test
again. If the problem still exists, refer to the 7356 Scanner Service Manual, Section 2,

8. When this test has been completed, press the EXIT key during one of the one-second
Intervals when the motor stops between measurements, then remove the test target man-
ually by pulling the test target toward the front of the scanner until It has cleared the Drive
Rollers.
NOTE: Do not use the rocker switch to position or remove the test target at any time dur-
ing this procedure.
NOTE: Do not exit back to the Ready Screen with the test target still Inserted in the scan-
ner.
9. If a test reports "FAILED: BAD TARGET' the scanner will be reset after the EXIT key has
been pressed, it will be necessary to wait for the scanner to finish the Power On Self Test
before the test can be executed again.
