Step 4: RegiCon #2 In/Out Skew Adjustment This test makes "magnification" adjustments for registration. Magnification is the length of the scan line for the four colors, so that each scan line for each color is the same length. The data output can indicate PASSED, or READJUST (PASSED), or FAILED. If the result is READJUST, the indicated adjustment values for the skew adjustment should be done. It should not be necessary to rerun the test after making this adjustment. 1.
