approximated• Calibrated look up tables\swatches• Look up table text• Application Support files
– Label stock can affect color output
![Page 29: Agenda Unpack and Assemble Install Software Create Label Status Monitor Maintenance/Troubleshooting](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103015/5519eb595503466a248b463d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Troubleshooting and Maintenance
• Color/Alignment Calibration– 500 pages– Change carts– Change ITU
• Force the printer to calibrate from the control panel

Troubleshooting and Maintenance
• Print Head Alignment– Pixel shifting cause by misaligned
cartridge– First try an auto alignment– If that fails a manual process can be
performed– Accessed from the Diagnostic Menu
of the CX1200
![Page 31: Agenda Unpack and Assemble Install Software Create Label Status Monitor Maintenance/Troubleshooting](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022103015/5519eb595503466a248b463d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Troubleshooting and Maintenance
• Cut Alignment/Stretch Factor– Printed output is stretched so the
size does not match the original file– Caused by fuser pulling paper
during printing– Status monitor has built in
procedure for setting the stretch factor
