8. Press the Print button on the LFP Remote Panel Screen.
The print process will take approximately 10 minutes.
After the print is complete, be careful not to smudge the ink, it will be wet for a short while.
Selection and Entry of the Values
1. Study the alignment patterns.
If completing a Uni-Directional Alignment, you will notice two columns and a group of dotted lines
marked #1, #2 and #3, representing each Dot Size. NOTE: The Express will only print 1 at a time. If
performing a Bi-Directional Alignment, you will also see individual sets of color swatches. These
particular groups will consist of:
Each alignment will be identied by a number (#1, #2, #3) that represents the dot size pattern on the
alignment. There will also be a color designation (C, M, Y, Pk/Mk. Lc, Lm, Lk, LLk) for each. You will
notice that there are two columns of identical groups. The rst, or left hand column, will be used for
calibration. The second column is only a duplicate image of the rst column.
Enter “Best” Values
2.
The next step is to enter the best results from the printout in the Alignment Screen and in the
corresponding Dot number (1 being the rst round and 3 being the last).
• Examine the lines.
The rst set of vertical lines begin with PK/MK, which refers to Black,
numbered 1-9. Carefully examine the printed lines and determine the cleanest,
straightest line. Select this line by entering its number (1-9) in the
corresponding box in the LFP window.
• Examine the swatches (Bi-Directional only).
The “C” refers to the Cyan color swatch. Examine the Cyan
swatches and select the one closest to a perfect rectangle with no
gaps or breaks in color. Enter the best swatch number (1-9) in its
corresponding box on the LFP Remote Panel screen.
9 sets of vertical, dotted
line patterns numbered 1-9,
representing each ink color.

the three colors labeled C, M
and Y numbered 1-9.
