Paper Feed Adjustment Detail Dialog Box

Click the Detail button of Paper Feed Adjustment Value in the Custom Paper Setup dialog box to display this Detail Dialog Box. To determine an appropriate paper sending correction value of the printing area, you may print 5 samples.
Note:
This Dialog Box appears according to the printer model.
Set the minimum and maximum values to determine the range by using the sliders or text boxes. We recommend you to set -70 for minimum value and 70 for maximum value at the first printing.
Note:
To make 5 samples, set the printing range minimum and maximum value. Value of Test Range is set in the ratio for the paper feeding of 1mm
Between the minimum and maximum values, five values will be determined for the sample feeding value. These five values are displayed above the Sample Prints button.
To use a specific image as the sample print for choosing the most appropriate media, select User Defined Image, and then click the Browse button to find the image.
Note for Windows:
The available size for User Defined Image is within 4060 × 1190 pixels and the 24-bit BMP file format is used.
Note for Mac OS X:
The available size for User Defined Image is within 4060 × 1190 pixels and the 32-bit PICT file format is used.
To use a standard image, make sure Standard Image is selected.
Click the Sample Prints button. The five samples for sample feeding value specified in step 1 will be printed.
Note:
In some cases with Mac OS X, a dialog indicating the number of sheets required to complete the sample print job appears. Confirm the sheets and click OK if there is no problems. Printing will be started.
Observe the samples and determine which image has the least amount of banding. A value is printed next to each image.
Repeat steps 1 through 4 until the banding is eliminated.
Write down the value you determined.
Note:
An interval of paper feed adjustment value is 6 or above (for example: -12, -6, 0, and 12) is recommended. This is because with the naked eye it is difficult to recognize the difference with an interval set under 6.
To remove white banding, move the slider toward - 70. To remove dark banding, move the slider toward 70.
Click the Close button to close the Paper Feed Adjustment Detail dialog box.
Set the range you wrote down by using the slider or enter a value in the text box in the Custom Paper Setup dialog box.
