press specifications. Refer to the Recommended Media List for the press and to Paper and
Media.
• Check that the press is within environmental specifications and humidity levels; refer to
Environmental Specifications.

• Measure the frequency of the spot intervals.
– Acquire the measuring tool either from www.xerox.com/VERSANT_4100docs or from the
Nationalization Kit.
– If spots occur every 147 mm on the output, print the Halftone Test Pattern to determine
which color drum is affected. To print the Halftone Test Pattern, go to www.xerox.com/
