4. At the system controller, select Transport → Page, and then use the
Page Correlation screen to configure the feature:
a. With the Check Page Correlation checkbox, disable the page
correlation feature. (You will enable the feature at a later point.)
b. With the Generate Marks button, enable printing of page correlation
marks by printheads, if desired. Disable printing of page
correlation marks if the substrate has preprinted marks.
c. If the Generate Numbers button is active, enable or disable printing
a document number along with the page correlation marks.
d. In the Position field, enter the location from the first line of the
document where the page correlation mark is printed. Usually the
location should be 1 /8 inch or further down the page.
e. In the Height field, enter the size of each segment of the page
correlation mark. This value can be 0.125 ( 1 /8) to 0.25 inch wide
(0.318 to 0.635 cm).
f. In the Distance field, enter the distance of the sensors from the
first cue sensor. (This distance is best determined with “Setting
the Cue Delays” on page 3-22.)
g. With the Sensor polarity buttons, select the sensor polarity to
invert the polarity. Leaving the polarity unchecked is more
common.
h. Select Apply.
5. At the system controller, select Print and a printhead that prints
black ink, and then use the Print screen to configure the printhead:
a. In the Mark Position field, enter the location from the GS edge of
the printed document where the page correlation mark is printed.
Usually the location should be 0.125 ( 1 /8) inch (0.318 cm) or
further from the left edge of the printhead, but the value is allowed
to be 0.0 to 8.96 inches (0.0 to 22.76 cm).
b. In the Mark Width field, enter the size of the page correlation
mark.
Usually this value is at least 0.125 ( 1 /8) inch, and usually 0.25
inch wide (0.318 and 0.635 cm). The mark can be as narrow as
0.063 inch ( 1 /16 inch, 0.159 cm) and as wide as the printhead
(8.96 inches, 22.76 cm). Sizes at the extremes of the range may
facilitate page correlation errors due to substrate wandering
underneath the sensors.
c. With the Sensor buttons, select the sensor that will detect the
marks printed by—or preprinted for—this printhead. Select Not
used if the page correlation marks can be ignored for this printhead
and others in line with it.
d. Select APPLY.
6. Repeat step 5 for each printhead that prints black, then go to step 10.
