    C3220 gradation error

    Tech tried to do a full adjust gradation but it keeps telling him the test sheet isn't placed correctly. He is placing it correctly so what would cause this?

    if this calibration page is from the Auto-Cal on printer--
    u first need to tell him to read this PDF BELOW>>>


    iR3200-3220 ITB Issues TP03.pdf

    your ITB Patch calibration images are miss-aligned -
    do to ITB belt slipping/ it needs cleaning and or replaced

      the image on the page could be in the wrong spot or out of alignment. The reader position of the reader assembly could be in the wrong spot causing the issue as well.

      Check your cassettes, white space margins and image alignment.
      Accidents don't just happen. They must be carelessly planned.

        also print out your TEST PRINTS

        PG 10 pattern/ make sure color blocks don't overlap
        PG 6 pattern/ check the grid pattern

        this is what the PG10 SHOULD LOOK LIKE

        pg10.JPG
        this below is a NG issue
        pg10--.JPG
        TEST CHART below shows poor alignment
        TP.JPG
        THIS IS A GOOD PG6/ but the color grid lines never match up / overlay exactly as shown

            yeah, you have to make sure the patch reader assembly is down
