Run this image quality adjustment when the printed output density is inconsistent (non-uniform) within the printed page. Non-uniform, inconsistent density may appear as faded colors on portions of the printed page (jobs running light and dark).

The press operator may perform this procedure, and it does not require system administrator access.

Select the Tools button on the Control Panel.
Select the Full Width Array Density Uniformity Adj.
Select the Paper Supply button.
Select the tray containing 11 x 17 in. (A3) or 12 x 18 in. (SRA3) paper and select Save.
Select Start.
You may have to wait up to a minute for the Full Width Array feature to be ready. The press prints the Density test patterns, measures them, and automatically adjusts the dry ink/toner density for consistent application across the page. The printed sheets do not yet reflect the new settings but are the sheets that were used to make the adjustments.
Select one of the following:
- If you do not want to print sheets with the revised settings, select Save and Close.
- If you do want to print sheets with the revised settings, select the Sample Printout button to view the adjustment prints. Sample sheets will print using the updated settings.
Check the printed samples for density uniformity.
- If acceptable, select Save.
- If not acceptable, repeat the adjustment procedure.
Select Close to complete the Density Uniformity Adjustment.
