7.9 Adjusting the Color Registration 161
Determining the Adjustment Values
There are two types of charts on the Color Registration Chart: Chart 1 (fast scan) and Chart
2 (slow scan).
The Chart 1 is used to adjust the color registration for the fast scan direction, which is
vertical to paper feed direction. The Chart 2 is used to adjust the color registration for the
slow scan direction, which is horizontal to paper feed direction.
The following explains how to detemine the adjustment values for the fast scan and the slow
scan.
Fast Scan
On the Chart 2 of the Color Registration Chart, find the straightest line where the two black
lines and the colored line are most closely aligned for each color (Y, M, and C). If the
straightest line is identified, make a note of the value (-9 to +9) for each color.
When the value is “0” for each color, you do not need to adjust the color registration for the
fast scan.
When the value is not “0”, enter the value using the procedure in "Entering the Adjustment
Values" (P. 162).
Slow Scan
On the Chart 2 of the Color Registration Chart, find the medium line within the range of white
area for each color pattern (Y, M, and C). If the medium line is identified, make a note of the
value (-9 to +9) for each color.
When the value is “0” for each color, you do not need to adjust the color registration for the
slow scan.
When the value is not “0”, enter the value using the procedure in "Entering the Adjustment
Values" (P. 162).
