Page 195 highlights

X-Axis Drive (Continued) This test drives the X-Axis motor in each directions until the printhead stalls into the stops, and then moves the printhead into the clear and performs an on-the-fly reversal. The power profile is used to confirm operational goals. R# Definition Typical Value Actions 5 Left Right Traverse MFG Power Ripple (watts) Only 6 Turnaround Power 4.3 to Blip Width (watts) 10.85 Same as R3 except for the other direction of. motion. Reports the width of the momentary drop in the required drive power when the printhead motion is being reversed. An abnormal value may indicate an unusual amount of play in the drive mechanism. Transfix Drive Slow and Transfix Drive Fast With the drum turning at a constant velocity, the transfix roller is loaded against the drum, held for one revolution, then raised. The velocity with which the transfix roller is moved differs for the two tests.
