4-2 AutoSet Calibration

AutoSet Calibration

AutoSet

is an advanced printer calibration feature that uses an

onboard camera and sophisticated software to detect and com-

pensate for variations in ink jet printing. It can be initiated by

the user or run automatically at specified intervals. AutoSet is

designed to be a “one-button” calibration, the only calibration

you need to run in most cases for superior quality output.

AutoSet consists of three separate functions:

◆ AutoJet Calibration

- detects and disables individual ink jets

that are misfiring or not firing at all. During subsequent

printing, the printer compensates for these jets by using

other jets in their place, ensuring maximum print quality

without reducing print speed.

◆ Bidirectional Registration

- ensures that every working jet

fires a pixel at precisely the same location, regardless of the

carriage’s direction of travel.

◆ Head Registration

- precisely aligns each cartridge in the

horizontal (x) and vertical (y) directions.

Note

Clean cartridges always produce the best printed

output. Ensure that the cartridges and service sta-

tion are clean before running an AutoSet calibration.

Note

AutoSet does not work with transparent media such

as ColorMark ClearFilm. In this case, you should run

AutoSet on a white media that is similar in thickness

to the clear media, then switch to the transparent

media; or manually run the calibrations under the

Expert Settings menu using the transparent media.

To ru n Au to S e t onc e :

1. Ensure that media is loaded on the printer.

2. On the control panel, press the

(Options) key to enter the

menu system.

3. Press the

key repeatedly to highlight the

Calibrate Printer

option.

4. Press

(Proceed).

The Calibrate Printer menu appears, with AutoSet high-

lighted.
