Return to Overview

Depending on the paper type, the heat generated by the fixing assembly may cause the paper to expand or shrink slightly. In this case, images may also be enlarged or reduced accordingly. This feature enables you to set the zoom ratio of the image for each piece of paper, or enlarge the reduced image to match the zoom ratio of the image on the 2nd side of the paper. You can adjust the zoom ratio of the image either by entering the enlargement/reduction ratio, or by entering the value of the test page paper you measured manually.

• Printing performance may not be optimal if you use the Zoom Fine Adjustment mode.

1. Press (Settings/Registration) → [Preferences] → [Paper Settings] → [Paper Type Management Settings].

2. Select the paper type that you want to edit from the list → press [Details/Edit].

3. Press [Change] next to [Adjust Image Position].

4. Press [Output Test Page].

5. Select a paper source that contains a custom paper size → press [Start Printing].

The test page is printed. Check the zoom ratio of the image, and follow the procedure described below as necessary.

• 139.7 mm × 182.0 mm to 330.2 mm × 487.7 mm paper can be used for the test pages. Make sure that a sufficient supply of paper is loaded into the machine before starting this procedure.

• If you enter the enlargement/reduction ratio (%):

• If you enter the value of the test page paper you measured manually:

• If you enter the enlargement/reduction ratio (%):

• Press [Fine Adjust Zoom] displayed on [Adjust Image Position].

• Set the enlargement/reduction ratio (%) you want → press [OK].

Details of each item are shown below.

As necessary, try printing out the test page paper again and then check the correction amount.

• Press [OK].

• If you enter the value of the test page paper you measured manually:

• Measure the length of a and b on the test page paper manually.

• If you perform a test page using paper smaller than 287 mm × 393 mm, you will not be able to measure the length of a and b since the entire image cannot be printed on the paper. In this case, enter the expanding/reducing percentage to adjust the zoom ratio, instead of entering the actual length of a and b.

• Press [Fine Adjust zoom] displayed on [Adjust Image position].

• Press [Enter Test Page Value].

• Entering the length of the test page on both [Front Side] and [Back Side] → press [OK].

For example, if the measured length of [a] is 360.4 mm, enter 360.4. The difference in length (0.4 mm in this case), is automatically reduced, so that the image is printed in the correct size.

As necessary, try printing the test page again and then check the correction amount.
