** You may have to change these aims later on if you feel that production has shifted color because of changeover to the
new type of paper.

8. Perform Time Slope. < 453 >
** If two manufacturers of paper are used on the machine at the same time, each must be assigned to a different time
slope, and a time slope test must be performed for each.

INDEX PRINT BALANCING PROCEDURES "A " series machines
DO NOT perform index print procedures until all other balancing procedures have been completed. (including monitor
balance)
1. Paper Autosetup < 422 > All versions ( 1.0 and above ) have a secondary display which maintains balance to an
aim that was input into menu < 482 > . This aim should be .77 .69 .73. The paper balance procedures done on each
paper channel should account for the major portion of a paper changeover procedure. Make sure to perform paper autosetup
on any paper type that you will be using to make index prints . If fine tuning is necessary follow the steps below:
2. Make Index Prints on IX240 ( APS ). They should look like the monitor. If balance changes are necessary to match the
index print to the monitor, offset the balance numbers in Correction Balance Setup menu < 485 > for IX240.
3. Make Index Prints on 135mm. They should look like the monitor. If balance changes are necessary to match the index
print to the monitor, offset the balance numbers in Correction Balance Setup menu < 485 > for 135mm.
