One has to take into account that the units of both fields is not the same !
Making a change of one unit in the general field, counts for a shift of around 8 µm.
Making a change of one unit in the color fine tuning fields, count for a shift of 80
µm. It is very unlikely to have figures in this color fine tuning field bigger then 2.
How to check the Bi-Dir Alignment:
Use a small image( 15cmx15cm), with text and a smooth background.
Evaluate the text sharpness and image smoothness.
As an indication, you can stop the print when it’s over half way.
By doing this, you’ll have a print with unfinished passes at the end, helping
you to evaluate the alignment.
The Bi-Dir can be out of focus, left or right:
Look at the end of the interrupted print:
(A) Too much left (B) GOOD
(C) Too much right
Change the Bi-Dir Value
Change the Bi-Dir Value
from e.g.: -4115 to -4130 from e.g.: -4125 to -4110
After the changing, use “Save” to store the new value in the ‘.dat’ file.
The new value will become immediately active as soon as it is saved.
