Color misregistration
Make sure that the drum unit is installed properly.
Make sure that the belt unit is installed properly.
Make sure that the waste toner box is installed properly.
Perform the auto color registration by using the control panel (see Auto
Registration on page 90) or perform the manual color registration by using the
control panel (see Manual Registration on page 91).
If the color mis-registration is not corrected after registering the color
manually, take all the toner cartridges out of the drum unit and turn the drum
unit over, then make sure that four drum unit gears are in the home position.
The home position of each drum can be identified by matching the number on
the drum unit gear to the same number on the side of the drum unit as shown
in the illustration.
