3501 Help

[Photo Express GR]

We run 4" and 8" Fuji paper in gloss and luster on a Noritsu 3501. I can take the same file and it will print fine on both 4" papers but prints very dark on 8" papers. I have done numerous emulsion checks and they register fine. Noritsu suggested I register the canisters but could not give me a password to do so.

Any help is appreciated!

You don't need any password to register the canisters or get access to the setup menus.

First check in F → Menu → Extension → Setup → Paper Setup, Select your 8" paper magazine 203(#)

check the balance memory figures on the 8" papers match the 4" paper. The standard value is 0 0 0.

Check the balance memory inside the print channel settings, under the image quality Tab, again the standard value is 0 0 0.

Thanks Dave. All of the values were set to 0. Do you have any other suggestions why the 8" prints so dark?

Go to F → Menu → Extension → Setup → Laser Setup → Magazine Registration/Setup,

On the 203 magazines set the 1 (assuming type 1 is the paper in use) to 0, then click yes to register, then set it back the same number it was (1). Now click the Magazine Registration/Setup button to setup the magazine again.

Hopefully that will clear any bad data on the 8" magazine.
