Select [Perpendicular] when using paper with a fiber direction that is perpendicular to the feeding direction.
Select [Parallel] when using paper with a fiber direction that is parallel to the feeding direction.
* If you set the fiber direction incorrectly, paper jams may occur, and the quality of the image may be adversely affected.
[Adjust Image Position]
You can adjust the print position when the printed images are shifted.
Adjusting the Print Position[Adjust Creep Correction]
You can adjust the amount of creep (shift) correction for each sheet of paper so that the inner pages do not creep out when the layered paper is folded in half.
When you make a saddle stitched booklet using custom paper with [Adjust Creep (Displacement) Correction] performed automatically, the correction is performed according to the correction amount set for this setting.
* For details about [Adjust Creep (Displacement) Correction], see the following:
[Adjust Paper Separation Fan Level] (8100 Series Only)
You can change the air volume of the paper separation fan according to the symptoms of problems that occur. For details on the adjustment method, contact your dealer or service representative.
* You can configure the setting when the optional POD Deck Lite or Multi-drawer Paper Deck is installed to the machine.
[-5] to [-1]: When high-density images are not printed evenly or a large amount of curling occurs on the printed paper
[0]: When normal
[1] to [5]: When paper jams occur frequently or when the machine is used in a hot and humid environment
[Adjust Fan for Paper Conveyance] (8100 Series Only)
If a paper jam often occurs or the output paper is creased and it has a wave like appearance, increase the fan level for paper conveyance before fixation.
Adjust the fan when the paper which length of the parallel edge to the feeding direction is shorter than 200 mm (7 7/8") is jammed in the paper conveyance before fixation repeatedly.
Set to [1] when a plain paper or a thin paper is used.
Set to [-1] when temperature and humidity is high and heavy paper is used.
[Adjust Paper Curve] (8100 Series Only)
The paper curve is a deflection which occurs in paper when adjusting the image position.
If the printed image is skewed, the output paper is creased, or the lead edge/tail end of the paper is curled, Adjust the setting value of the paper curve.
You can press [±] to switch the entered value between positive and negative.
To improve image skew, increase the setting value.
To improve paper wrinkling, loop formation marks, or curling on the lead edge/tail end of the paper, decrease the setting value.
[Adjust Paper Realignment Speed] (6100 Series Only)
Adjust the paper realignment speed if more roughness occurs in the image compared to when printed on regular paper. For details on the adjustment method, contact your dealer or service representative.
Press [-] if roughness occurs in the printed image.
[Adjust Gloss] (6100 Series Only)
Adjust the glossiness of the printed image when using plain paper, coated paper, or other paper.
Press [-] to decrease the glossiness, or press [+] to increase the glossiness.
Adjust the value gradually to avoid problems that may occur when you change the adjustment value significantly.
Depending on the paper, setting a [-] value may cause a fixing or printing error, and setting a [+] value may cause a paper jam.
[Adjust Gloss/Fine Black] (8100 Series Only)
Adjust the glossiness of the plain or coated paper by adjusting the temperature of the fixing assembly. You can also improve the fine black setting for the plain paper when tiny white grainy dots appear on the black printed areas and when the paper fiber direction partly shows on the printed surface.
Press [+] to increase the gloss, and press [-] to decrease the gloss for the coated paper.
Press [+] to improve the fine black for the plain paper.
Values of the [Gloss] and [Fine Black] are directly related to each other.
You cannot adjust the [Fine Black] setting for the transparency, coated, and vellum paper.
Result of the adjustment may turn out to be the opposite of what you wish because of paper characteristics. Make sure to check the output result while adjusting the value.
Depending on the paper, if the value in this mode is increased, a paper jam may occur. If the value is decreased, fixing or printing errors may occur.
Adjust the value gradually to avoid problems that may occur when you change the adjustment value significantly.
[Adjust Lead/Tail Margins]
You can adjust the length of the margins at the leading edge and trailing edge according to the feed direction. Printing errors such as uneven glossiness, as well as corner folding and misfeeds, may occur when the margins are small. In such cases, increase the margin length.
[Adjust Temp. to Prevent Wrinkles] (8100 Series Only)
Change the wrinkle correction level if wrinkles appear or the paper seems thin and worn.
You can press [±] to switch the entered value between positive and negative.
Changing this setting significantly may have an effect on the paper curl.
[Adjust Primary Transfer Voltage] (8100 Series Only)
Adjust if uneven density occurs in the print area.
You can press [±] to switch the entered value between positive and negative.
[Adjust Secondary Transfer Voltage]
If the overall printed image is lighter in color or distorted compared to when printed on regular paper, you can adjust the secondary transfer voltage (voltage when the image is transferred onto the paper).
Adjusting the Transfer Condition of the Printed Image[Adj. Lead Edge Sec. Transfer Volt.]
If the printed image is lighter in color or distorted only in the leading edge area of the paper according to the feed direction compared to when printed on regular paper, you can adjust the lead edge secondary transfer voltage (voltage when the image is transferred onto the paper).
When you set [Adjustment Level] to a [+] value, the effect on the print problem will be increased. If the set value is too large, white spots may occur in high density areas.
When you set [Adjustment Range] to a [+] value, the adjusted distance from the leading edge of the paper becomes longer (by 1 mm for every "+1").
Making this adjustment may affect the [Correct Tail End Toner Application] and [Adjust Image Position] settings. Readjust those settings, as needed.
[Correct Tail End Toner Application]
If you use curled paper or paper prone to curl during 2-sided printing, white spots or faint colors may occur in the image at the trailing edge area of the paper according to the feed direction. Low density images may also become lighter or deeper in color. If this happens, perform Correct Tail End Toner Application.
When you set [Correction Level] to a [+] value, the effect on the print problem will be increased. If the set value is too large, white spots may occur in high density areas.
When you set [Correction Amount] to a [+] value, the adjusted distance from the trailing edge toward the leading edge of the paper becomes longer (by 1 mm for every "+1").
If the symptoms do not improve even after performing Correct Tail End Toner Application, perform adjustment using [Adjust Secondary Transfer Voltage] or [Adj. Lead Edge Sec. Transfer Volt.]. A certain effect can be expected by making the secondary transfer voltage smaller than the current value, but it may affect images.
[Toner Amount Reduction Mode] (6100 Series Only)
Set this to [On] if printing errors such as uneven glossiness occur, or if misfeeds or fixing errors occur. This reduces the amount of toner used for printing, which may solve the problem.
* The density, color tone, or glossiness may change when this is set to [On], depending on the paper.
[Adjust ITB Image Clearing] (8100 Series Only)
Adjust if toner smudges appear on the printed paper due to an intermediate transfer belt (ITB) that is not sufficiently clean.
You can press [±] to switch the entered value between positive and negative.
If the result is unsatisfactory even after pressing [+], press [-]. If the condition is not improved even after you have adjusted the value in both [-] and [+] directions, adjust the [Adjust Secondary Transfer Voltage] setting. The condition may be improved by adjusting the value of the secondary transfer voltage value in the [-] direction. However, note that changing the value of secondary transfer voltage value abruptly may greatly affect the output result.
[Embossing Depth] (8100 Series Only)
Select [Deep] when printing on textured paper that has significant unevenness.
