Color Registration
When first installing the machine or moving it to a new location, color drift during printing may occur. Use this 
function to correct the color position of each of cyan, magenta and yellow to resolve color drift.
Normal registration and detailed settings are available for Color Registration. Color drift can be largely corrected 
through normal registration. However, if it is not resolved or to perform more detailed settings, use the detailed 
settings.
NOTE: To perform color registration, verify that either 11 × 8 1/2 or A4 paper is loaded into a cassette.
IMPORTANT: Before performing color registration, be sure to perform color calibration (see page 8-52). If color 
drift remains, perform color registration.By performing color registration without performing color calibration, the 
color drift will be resolved once, however, it may cause the serious color drift later.
Normal Registration
Follow the steps below to correct normal color drift.
