The short black line indicates the top of the sheet. On the printed output, as you hold the sheet with the top facing up, inboard refers to the left side of the sheet and outboard refers to the right side. These are the three sets of steps that are performed when calibrating the printer with the SIQA tools: 1-1ħ Simple Image Quality Adjustment (SIQA) Overview Image Orientation Definitions Inboard and outboard are as follows: On the machine, inboard refers to the rear of the machine (the side farthest from you as you are using the machine) and outboard refers to the front (the side nearest you). Unlike Auto Alignment Adjustment, the profile you select applies to all input trays. Perform the Density Uniformity Adjustment after you have completed the Image Transfer and Alignment Adjustments. Density Uniformity: The Density Uniformity procedure adjusts print engine tables to ensure that ink is deposited uniformly and consistently across the entire surface of a page for each print. Perform Alignment Adjustment after you have completed the Image Transfer Adjustment. The assigned Type is then automatically applied each time the associated tray is used, ensuring optimal print quality. You can assign a different Type to each of the input trays, if desired. You can create a maximum of 50 Types for use across all input trays. These profiles, ot Types, ensure that images are placed correctly on the media. Alignment: The Alignment procedure generates an individual alignment profile for each stock/tray combination selected when performing the procedure. Perform the Image Transfer Adjustment before performing any other image adjustment. The adjustment is created and saved for specific stocks and can be selected for any tray when printing on those stocks. Use the SIQA Tool in the following instances: When image alignment on duplex output requires correction When within page image density requires uniformity adjustment SIQA performs three types of adjustments, which must be performed in the order given: Image Transfer: This tool corrects for uneven toner and color shift by creating an Image Transfer Adjustment to the Bias Transfer Roll in the printer.
