Test patterns: 82E2000 (A3 and 11x17), 82E2010 (A4), 82E2020 (8.5x11). Use for checking
copy skew with border erase turned off or scan skew.
Procedure
NOTE: For a description of the print/copy orientation definitions, refer to GP 31 Print/Copy Ori-
entation Definitions.
Go to the relevant procedure:
• Print Skew
• Copy Skew
Print Skew
Specification
Refer to Table 1.
Skew Measurement
To check for skew, perform the steps that follow:
1. Enter dC612. Make a simplex print of internal test pattern 28.
2. Determine the amount of skew. Measure the distance from a printed line to the lead edge
of the paper at the inboard and outboard edges.
3. If skew is not within specification on either side, perform the IQ8 IOT Skew RAP.
Copy Skew
Specification
Refer to Table 2.
Skew Measurement
To check for skew, perform the steps that follow:
1. Make a simplex copy of test pattern 82E2000 (A3 and 11x17), 82E2010 (A4) or 82E2020
(8.5x11).
2. Refer to Figure 1. Determine the amount of skew by either:
• Measuring the distance between the datum line and the lead edge of the paper at
the inboard and outboard edges.
• Using the grid A and grid B areas of the test pattern to directly measure the skew dif-
ference.
NOTE: Grid A and grid B are small areas of parallel lines 1mm apart.
3. If skew is not within specification, perform the IQ26 DADF, Document Glass and Scanner
RAP.
