(The last 4 figures of the bar code label attached to the Gear plate calking Assy stand for the adjusted value of the laser scanner.) Among 4 figures mentioned above, the first 2 figures stand for the adjusted value of X and the last 2 figures stand for the adjusted value of Y. Each of the adjusted value is calculated by 50 and measured by 0.1mm. For example, when the adjusted value is 5248, (X, Y)=(52, 48) X=(52-50) *0.1=0.2mm Y=(48-50) *0.1=-0.2mm
Check box

2-4:Read/Write NVRAM By this function, it is possible to save the data of NVRAM in the file, or to write the
saved data to the NVRAM. If you chose the “Read/Write NVRAM” from the “Menu” of
the main window, the following window will appear.
Choose the printer port (connected to the printer) and the model name. Then, push the
“Read” or “Write” button. Operation corresponding to each button will be performed.
<Operation of “Read”>
When the printer port and the printer name are chosen correctly, and the “Read” button
is pressed, the data of NVRAM will be written out to the file. This file is saved at the
TEMPORARY folder (TEMP or TMP folder). It overwrites if the file that has the same
name exists. The names of the file that will be made at this stage are as follows. HL-7050 -> HL-7050_NVRAM.inf HL-1850/1870N -> HL1850-1870N_NVRAM.inf HL-5030/5040/5050 -> HL-5030-5040-5050_NVRAM.inf HL-5070N -> HL-5070N_NVRAM.inf HL-8050 -> HL-8050_NVRAM.inf HL-6050 -> HL6050_NVRAM.inf HL-5130/5140/5150D -> HL-5130-5140-5150D_NVRAM.inf HL-5170DN -> HL-5170DN_NVRAM.inf HL-5070DN -> HL-5070DN_NVRAM.inf HL-2030/2040 -> HL2030-2040_NVRAM.inf HL-2070N -> HL-2070N.inf

Example:
When the temporary folder is “C:¥Windows¥Temp”, and the model name is HL-7050,
the file will be saved in “C:¥Windows¥Temp¥HL-7050_NVRAM.inf”.
The window message as shown below will be displayed during the operation of
“Read”.
During the operation of “Read”, the data transmitted from the printer is always checked
whether it is damaged or not. When the data is damaged, the operation of “Read” is
finished at the time and the file that contains the “data” will also be canceled. When all
the data is written in the file, the data of the file will be checked again. If the error is
found in the data at this stage, the file will be canceled again. The following window will
be displayed at the time of completion of “Read” operation.
<Operation of “Write”>
When you push the “Write” button, “Data” is read from the file at first. After that, the data
will be written out to “NVRAM”. Then, the contents of NVRAM will be compared to the
contents of the file to check whether the data was written out correctly.
The file which will be used during the operation of “Write” is chosen from the temporally
folder automatically. (The name of the file contains the model name.) When the selected
file agrees with the model which is connected, the data will be read from the file. Then, it
starts to write out the data to NVRAM. If the file with the name corresponding to the
connected printer does not exist, the operation of “Write” will end in the “ERROR”. The
window message as shown below will be displayed during the operation of “Write”.
After writing the data to the printer is completed, the data of the file and the data of
