Page 167 highlights

Step 3: RegiCon #1 Fine Skew Adjustment This process uses sensors to examine the RegiCon image on the belt and report what skew adjustments need to be made. A side effect of this test is that horizontal and vertical alignments are automatically done (if the test passed). The data output presents the skew screw adjustment values (some number of "clicks" of the screw, either CW or CCW direction). Values less than 5 or so are "noise" and should not need adjusted. 1. From the Service Diagnostics menu, highlight the Adjustments/Calibration menu and press OK. 2. Highlight Regi Con 685 Setup Cycle and press OK. 3. At the prompt: Which DC685 procedure?, highlight #1 Fine Skew Setup and press OK. The front panel now displays: 4. The printer now reboots and runs the test. Wait for approximately 10 seconds after the motors turn off and the display indicates "Ready To Print", then cycle power and enter Service Diagnostics. 5. Enter Adjustments/Calibration --> Regi Con 685 Results and press OK. 6. Wait until the test results are displayed as follows: DC685-1 Passed A Out Blocks: 24 B Out Blocks: 4 Note If the block counts are not the same number as presented here, the printer has a print-quality problem. Please refer to section "Streaks in Direction of Paper Travel" on page 3-111 to resolve the print-quality problems before proceeding further with RegiCon. 7. Press OK to see the second panel data. If an adjustment is needed, adjust by the smounts displayed on the front panel. Be sure to tap the screw that was adjusted with a heavy screwdriver to ensure that the adjustment remains true.
