CALIBRATION PROCESS OLD SOFTWARE
Step 1: Bi Dir offset, choose the speed to be calibrated (low, medium, high), since each speed needs an independent calibration, then press Print.
Look at the following print, 0 should be the alignment position.
In the case that the "0" position is not aligned, you must look for the number where it looks perfectly aligned and add (positive value) or subtract (negative value) this value to the number shown in the software, then click “Apply”.
Step 2: Step offset, click "Print".
At 0 the lines must be overlap as shown below:
For example, If the "0" position does not overlap but overlap in position 3, you should subtract this value from the software value and then press “=” box.
Step 3: Color offset, press “Print” and select “Left print.
Then look at the following figure:
XYL corresponds to the left print, you need to identify the position where the black reference line overlaps the colored line. Each color is referenced by K1,K2, C1,C2, M1,M2, Y1,Y2 and the white is referenced with w11, w12, w21, w22, w31, w32 ....
In the following image it is observed that the cyan perfectly overlaps the black reference line at position -1 above and -1 below.
After determining this position for each color, you must enter the values in the software.
Note: In case of performing the calibration a second time: add or subtract the new position value (generated by “Left print” and “Right print”) in the boxes of each color corresponding to XTL.
Then make the same process for “Rigth print” and enter the corresponding data in the XTR row.
