Adjusting Color on the Trailing Edge of Sheets

Adjusting Color on the Trailing Edge of Sheets

If printed sheets are affected by banding in different colors by the trailing edge (about 20–30 mm (0.8–1.2 in) from the
edge), try adjusting the feed amount of the trailing edge of sheets.

Important

This adjustment is only possible when feeding paper from the Top Paper Feed Slot that can be set up with a margin on the
trailing edge of 3 mm (0.12 in). Paper that does not allow a margin of 3 mm on the trailing edge is automatically ejected, and
the adjustment is not available.

Note

We recommend using the type of paper you use most often for adjustment.

For banding in different colors over the entire printed area of sheets or rolls (not only at the trailing edge of sheets), try adjust-
ing the overall feed amount. (See "Automatic Banding Adjustment.")
