If there are several skewed areas on the test printing result,
turn all the LSU skew adjustment screws shown in the figure *
To make "SKEW_*" values in the following ranges, turn the
LSU skew adjustment screws clockwise direction (a) or coun-
terclockwise direction (b).
SKEW_C : +/-30, SKEW_M : +/-40, SKEW_Y : +/-20

10) Enter the SIM61-4 mode and perform the procedures of 2) - 3).
Check the printed color image skew pattern.
In each Y/M/C color print pattern printed separately in the F side and in the R side, note the same print color pattern and check to confirm
that the front frame side and the rear frame side are in the same condition.
that the front frame side and the rear frame side are in the same condition.
Rough adjustment pattern check:
Check the sub scan rough adjustment color image shift check section on the R side and the F side of each color, use the black scale of "0"
as the center reference, and check the balance in shifts of the color image line positions in the positive and the negative directions. The
balance in the R side must be the same as that in the F side.

balance in the R side must be the same as that in the F side.
Fine adjustment pattern check:
Check the square frames on the R side and the F side of each
color. (Normally five sections of high density can be seen.)
Check the sub scanning direction position of the center area of
high density (one of the above five sections). These must be
on the same position on the R side and the F side.

In this case, use the sub scan direction color image shift check

Visually check the color density and make the darkest section

The positional relations of the front and the rear frame of the
print color patterns of a same color are compared. There is no
need that all the colors are in the same state. Compare only
the positional relations of color patterns of a same color.
