Chapter 9 - SETUP PART 7: Print Head Alignments - BLAZER EXPRESS
59
Version 5.5 Revised December, 2008
Bi-Directional Alignment Patterns:
If performing a Bi-Directional Alignment, you will see lines for black and individual sets of color
swatches for the colors.
The black and light black ink colors (Pk/Mk and LK) will have it’s
own set of lines like the sample shown here.
The colors (C,M and Y) will each have color swatch set
numbered 1-9 (cyan shown in this example).
The 4 white cartridges will each have a white swatch set
numbered 1-9 as well, labeled Lk, Lc, Lm, and LLk.
NOTE: 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.
2. Determining “Best” Values
These following sections will cover determining which numbers are the best from the printout and
entering those values in the Alignment Screen.
Determine “Best” Lines: Uni-Directional
The rst set of vertical lines begin with PK/MK, which refers to
Black.
Carefully examine the printed lines and determine the cleanest, straightest line.
This line will then be entered (1-9) in the corresponding box in the LFP window.
Determine “Best” Lines: Bi-Directional
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. Pick the best swatch number (1-9) to enter
in its corresponding box on the LFP Remote Panel screen.
