To change the PG position, turn the cam each on the left and right side of the carriage shaft
simultaneously.
Tools
Adjustment gauge
In this adjustment, use the same adjustment gauge on the left and right sides.
Do not touch the surface of the adjustment gauge plate with bare hands.
Before performing this adjustment, clean the adjustment gauge with a soft cloth
moistened with Shipping Cleaning Liquid “CR06” (parts number: 6104713(1kg),
6104714(18kg)).
Adjustment procedure
Before starting PG Adjustment, completely wipe drops of ink around the Print Head.
Remaining drops of ink will stick t o the conti nui ty meas ure ment point of the adjustment
gauge, and cause continuity befor e the continui ty measurement po int makes contac t with
the metal frame around the Print Head, interrupting accurate PG Adjustment.
As the ink in the Print Head may stick fast and damage the Print Head during PG
Adjustment, make the continuity time detected with a tester as short as possible.
(Maximum three minutes.)
Move the CR Unit by moving the timing belt.
Place the printer on a level, warp-free table. PG Adjustment cannot be performed
normally on a warped table.
Make sure that the Ink Supply Unit and the CR Support Plate are secured when

Calibration principle
Measuring a color chart prin t resul t (i nk dis char ge amoun t) i n a ca libr ator.Created Color ID informat ion ba sed on
the obtained col or dif feren ce values (L*, a *, b*) is stored on the pr inter.When printing, the prin ter dri ver take s the
Color ID to correct the number of ink droplets (dot generation rate) for each of diff erent sized droplets of each
colors.
Correlation with Head ID adjustment
Head ID: In the pr int h ead manufacturing proc ess , i nk discharge amount of each head is actually measured to g et
individual characteristic information. The information is the Head ID that was set to revise a characteristic
difference betwee n the heads. The Head ID is shown with a la bel on the each pr int head, the refore you must inpu t
the Head ID to the printer after print h ead exchange.
Before performing Colorimetric Calibration, the conventional Head ID must be preregistered.
If you do not perform Colorimetric Calibration after performing Head ID adjustment,
the printer will be controlled only by the Head ID. In that case, the color precision is not
guaranteed.
Flow of the Colorimetric Calibration
The following steps show the Colorimetric Calibration:
1. Print a nozzle check pattern. If there is nozzle missing, run a head cleaning.
2. Print a color chart with the printer which you want to calibrate via ColorBase2.
3. Scan the printed colo r chart with a calibrator.
4. ColorBase2 calculates a Color ID from the sc anning result and calculation paramet er of the color i metric
calibration.
5. Write the Colo r ID to the printer. When printing, printer driver refers to the data of the Use r Color ID area.

3.1 Overview
This section provides information to maintain the p rinter in its op timum condition.
3.1.1 Cleaning
Except for the printhead, there are no other mechanical parts or units that require periodic cleaning. However, if
need arises, clean the component observing the following instructions.
Instructions for cleaning
Exterior parts such as housing
Wipe dirt off with a soft clean cloth moistened with water. For glossy or transparent parts, use of unwoven cloth is
recommended to avoid scratching those parts.
Inside of the printer
Remove paper dust with a vacuum cleaner.
Rubber or plastic rollers such as an LD roller used to feed paper
If paper dust adhered to the rollers decreases the frictional force of the rollers and the rollers cannot properly feed
paper, wipe off the paper dust with a soft cloth moistened with diluted alcohol.
Instructions for cleaning ink stains
Wipe the stains off with a cloth wrung out of diluted alcohol.
Do not use alcohol for cleaning the transparent parts. Doing so m ay cause them to get cloudy.
When wiping paper dust off the LD roller, be careful not to rub against the surface asperity.
To minimize the effect on the parts, use diluted alcohol such as 70% diluted ether.
After using alcohol for cleaning, make sure to wipe the part off with a soft dry dust-free
cloth to remove alcohol traces fully.
3.1.2 Lubrication
The type and amount of the grease used to lubricate the printer parts are determined based on the results of the
internal evaluations. Therefore, refer to " 3.2 Lubrication Points and Instructions (p73)" for the repairing
procedures below, and apply the specified type and amount of the grease to the specified part of the printer
mechanism.
This section describes the power-on sequences for this product. The conditions are as follows.
Conditions
Initial ink charge has finished.
The Front Tray Assy is set at the standard paper printing position without roll paper lo aded.
No paper on the paper path.

The Printhead is capped with the Cap of the Ink System Assy.
The PG position is PG 2.
The Carriage is normally fixed by the CR Lock.
The ink cartridges with sufficient ink are installed, and no ink low or ink end error is occurring.
The following explains how to use the simplified diagrams in Table 4-1. The diagrams show
the movement of each component as seen from the front of the printer.
