Stim Phase<br />
Adjustment<br />
Note: The phase setting may require adjustment again when the print station<br />
reaches a maximum operating temperature.<br />
The operator can choose any of 16 phase settings during large<br />
environmental changes. Find and record the stim phase window with the<br />
following steps.<br />
1. From the CONTROL MENU screen, select function 8 Service<br />
Menu.<br />
2. Select function 9 Parameters Menu, and enter the password.<br />
3. Select function 4 Stim Phase.<br />
4. Select each of the 16 different phase settings. Record all phase<br />
settings that print test patterns of good quality.<br />
5. Examine the printed test patterns. Several adjacent settings should<br />
provide good print quality. These phase settings are the phase<br />
window.<br />
6. Find the center of the phase window, then set the phase one value<br />
above the center. This is the set point.<br />
7. <strong>Print</strong> test patterns at the expected job speed. Check the results for<br />
ghosting.<br />
Charge Voltage<br />
Adjustment<br />
Caution: Do not change the center point of the pressure by more than 1.5 psi (10.3<br />
kPa).<br />
Note: The operator has a range of 10 VDC above and below the center point for<br />
a total range of 20 VDC.<br />
Note: Extreme cases of pickout or dark defect may need changes of 5 to 10<br />
VDC to correct printhead performance. Small changes of about 2 VDC<br />
can correct minor cases of pickout or dark defect.<br />
Use the following procedure to change the center point of the operator<br />
charge voltage adjustment range.<br />
Find and record the charge voltage window with the following steps:<br />
1. From the CONTROL MENU screen, select function 8 Service<br />
Menu.<br />
2. Select function 9 Parameters Menu, and enter the password.<br />
3. Select 5 Charge Voltage.<br />
4. Lower the charge voltage to find the lowest charge voltage that will<br />
allow printing without dark defect.<br />
Lowest charge voltage setting:<br />
VDC.<br />
