Jet Status Lines This option prints the Manual Jet Mapping test pattern (see Fig. 4-4 on page 4-17) that shows which jets are working, and which jets are out, but does not run the Manual Jet Mapping calibration (see "Manual Jet Mapping" on page 4-16 for information). Media Feed Calibration This calibration allows you to calibrate the accuracy of the media advance. Inaccurate media advance can result in blank spaces between print swaths (too much advance) or overlapping swaths (too little advance). The Media Wizard stores this value by media type, and displays a media feed number (MFN), which you can record for subsequent entry. The media feed number enables you to quickly specify a known good media feed setting without recalibration. For example, you could keep a list of media feed numbers by media type, or by media type and full, half, and nearly empty supply rolls. Tip You can also adjust the media advance while a print job is printing. Repeatedly press the increase advance or decrease advance button shown on the control panel to eliminate blank spaces or overlap between print swaths. When you do this, the media feed number displayed on the control panel changes accordingly. 1. On the Manual Calibrations menu, highlight Media Feed. 2. Press the (Menu In) key to select the option. Stitch pattern - First, allow the printer to print the following number of swaths, depending on the mode you want to calibrate: • 16 swaths in High Quality mode, or • 8 swaths in Production mode, or • 4 swaths in Billboard mode Next, press the , key to increase the advance until you see blank spaces between swaths. Finally, press the ) key to decrease the advance until the blank spaces are eliminated, but avoid dark lines between swaths (which indicate overlap). This method allows for the Manual Calibrations 4-21
