The adjustment value is applied onto the [Rotate/Skew] screen, and it can be adjusted manually as needed.

To manually adjust [Rotate/Skew], follow the steps below.

The adjustment value specified in [Rotate/Skew] is held for each tray. If the paper size of the tray is changed, adjust the value specified in [Rotate/Skew] again to suit the paper you are using.

  • If [UTILITY] - [User Setting] - [Common Setting] - [Both Sides Rotate/Skew] (or [UTILITY] - [Administrator Setting] - [Common Setting] - [Both Sides Rotate/Skew]) is set to [Disable], the [Rotate/Skew] adjustment does not function. To make the [Rotate/Skew] adjustment, set [Both Sides Rotate/Skew] to [Enable].
    When the adjustment value is set on the [Rotate/Skew] screen, its value is held even if [Both Sides Rotate/Skew] is set to [Disable]. If [Both Sides Rotate/Skew] is set to [Enable], the same adjustment value can be used for adjustment.

  1. Press [Both Sides] on the [MACHINE] screen.

  2. Select the tray in which the papers to be adjusted have been set.

  3. Press [Rotate/Skew].

  4. Enter the adjustment value in [Rotate] using the touch panel keypad, [], or [].

    • Press [Rotate] under [Front] or [Back], then enter the numeric value.

    • To rotate the image counterclockwise, enter a positive value, and to rotate it clockwise, enter a negative value.

    • Adjustment range: [Front]/[Back] -1.00 to +1.00 (1 step = 0.01)

    • Use [+/-] to specify the value to be positive or negative.

    • Press [Clear] to reset the numeric value you are currently entering.

    • Pressing [Reset (Front/Back)] resets all the values you specified in [Rotate/Skew].

    • [Rotate] adjustment example: If the image on the front side is inclined clockwise, press [Rotate] under [Front], then enter a positive value. The image on the front side rotates counterclockwise.

  5. Enter the adjustment value in [Skew] using the touch panel keypad, [], or [].

    • Press [Skew] under [Front] or [Back], then enter the numeric value.

    • To adjust so that the right corner of the image lowers, enter a negative value. To adjust so that the left corner lowers, enter a positive value.

    • Adjustment range: [Front][/Back] -1.00 to +1.00 (1 step = 0.01)

    • The method of entering a value is the same as that of the step 4.

    • [Skew] adjustment example: If an upward-sloping skew is detected on the image in the front side, press [Skew] under [Front], then enter a negative value. The skew level lowers, getting closer to a normal form.
