Quick Reference for SIQA Alignment Adjustment
Simple Image Quality Adjustment (SIQA) is a maintenance tool that adjusts the quality
of the printed images generated by the Xerox® Versant™ 180 Press. There are three sets of steps
to perform an Alignment Adjustment with the SIQA tool:
1. Print the SIQA targets.
2. Scan the targets using either the Document Feeder or the Platen Glass.
3. Save the adjustment data to a file on the press providing the profile with a unique name.
The adjustment profile is then complete and can be selected by users for print runs, as needed.
Performing SIQA Alignment Adjustment
The Alignment procedure generates an individual alignment profile for each
stock/tray combination selected when performing the procedure. These profiles
ensure that images are placed correctly on the media. You can create up to 50
profiles. Each created profile will then be automatically used each time the
associated stock is used, ensuring optimal print quality.Follow these steps to
perform a Simple Image Quality Adjustment (SIQA) for alignment:
1. If not done already, you will need to print a pattern that is used during this
procedure. Print the PDF file called Black Background Sheet which is located on
www.xerox.com under the Versant 180 Documentation. This file is also in the
Install Nat kit.
The Black Background sheet is needed when creating profiles for media over
220gsm and/or larger than 11x17”/A3. Print the file duplex on either 11x17”
or A3 media – depending on your region.
The weight (gsm) is not important, but a higher gsm will result in a longer sheet life. Once someone at
your site prints this sheet, you can re-use it and do not have to print it again until it gets worn down with use.
2. At the Press UI, select the Login/Logout button.
3. Log-in as a System Administrator by typing admin as the ID (password).
4. Select the Machine Status button on the UI control panel.
5. Touch the Tools tab.
6. Select Setup & Adjustment on the left of the window..
7. Touch the Group button Alignment Adjustment Setup.

8. Touch Auto Alignment Adjustment.
9. Touch Print Calibration Chart.
10. Touch Paper Supply.
11. Select the Paper Supply tray for the
adjustment/profile needed.
12. Touch the Save button.
13. Set the area coverage if needed
Coverage is the amount of toner covering
the page. Coverage 1 is for Side 1 and
Coverage 2 is for Side 2 of the page. You can
usually leave the coverage set to 1. However,
if you are experiencing alignment problems
repeadedly on print jobs with high area
coverage, you can increase this value
incrementally up to 10.
14. Set the number of sheets to print. With
multiple sheets, the software will use the
average values from all sheets to make
adjustments. Therefore it is best to set at
least 5 sheets. and so the variation between
the sheets will be reduced
15. Touch Print.
16. After the prints are output, touch Confirm.
17. Next, you will collect the printed targets and
scan them. You must choose weather to use
the Document Feeder or the Platen Glass to
scan the targets:
• If the targeted media is larger than
11x17 (A3) or heavier than 220 gsm,
the Platen Glass must be used.
• Another factor is selecting either the Document Feeder or the Platen Glass is that while the Document
Feeder is easier and faster, the Platen Glass method is more accurate. The accuracy of the Document
Feeder is within .2 mm, while the accuracy of the Platen Glass is within .1 mm.
Follow these steps to use the Document Feeder (DADF)
a. Place all of the target sheets in the Document Feeder. The orientation of target sheet is not important
when using the DADF.
b. Select the Scan Chart with Document Feeder button on the Touch Screen.
c. Touch Scan.
d. After the scanning completes, touch Start.
e. Go to Step 20 below to continue.

Follow these steps to use the Platen Glass
a. Select the Scan Chart with Document Glass button on the Touch Screen.
In the next steps, you will scan the Calibration Chart 4 times – 2 times per side. For each scan you will
reposition the chart.
For each scan do not place the target against the registration edge, but leave at least 20 mm to the edge of
the glass. Also makesure the target is not skewed more than 15 degrees:
b. Open the cover of the Duplexing Automatic Document Feeder (DADF). Notice that the Control Panel now
displays the Auto Alignment Adjustment screen. The instructions on this screen will assist you in
performing the next several steps. Notice that the bottom right of the screen displays: Scan Page(s): 0.
The next series of steps will be performed 4 times; twice for each side of the Alignment Adjustment
Calibration Chart that you printed.
c. Follow these bullets to position the Calibration Chart and the Background Plate onto the glass:
• Place the Background Plate on the platen and align it to the rear left corner, as shown on the Control
Panel screen. The all-black side of the document should be placed face down on the platen. The side of
the document with the instructional icons should face up. Note that these icons are identical to those
displayed on the Control Panel screen.
• Select one of the five Calibration Charts that you printed.
• Inspect the Calibration Chart to find the side of the document that contains a single black square
printed in the left-hand margin. Orient the document so that this square is in the lower left-hand
quadrant of the page as you hold the document.
• Slide the chart under the Background Plate that you placed on the platen in the previous step.

• It is important to preserve a black margin around the Alignment Adjustment Calibration Chart. Align
the chart laterally (left to right) so that it is at least 20 mm to the right of the left-hand edge of the
glass, and not skewed more than 15 degrees.
• Align the chart vertically (forward and back) so that the horizontal line is just above the black square
and aligned with the bottom edge of the Background Plate.
d. Close the document cover and touch Scan. This will generate a scanned image that is stored on the press
for later use. While the scan is in progress, the Control Panel displays a status screen. The Auto Alignment
Adjustment screen displays again when the scan is complete.
e. Notice that the bottom left of the screen displays: Scan Page(s): 1, indicating that one scan is complete.
f. Slide the Alignment Adjustment Calibration Chart out from under the Background Plate and rotate it 180
degrees. Notice that the lower left-hand quadrant of the document now contains two black squares in the
margin. Reposition the chart under the Background Plate as you did in Step c above, except that 2 black
squares should be showing.
g. Close the document cover and touch Scan.
h. Notice that the bottom left of the screen displays: Scan Page(s): 2, indicating that two scans are
complete.
i. Slide the Alignment Adjustment Calibration Chart out from under the Background Plate and flip it over.
Notice that the lower left-hand quadrant of the document now contains one gray square in the margin.
Reposition the chart under the Background Plate as you did in Step c above, except that one gray square
should be showing.

j. Close the document cover and touch Scan.
k. Notice that the bottom left of the screen displays: Scan Page(s): 3, indicating that three scans are
complete.
l. Slide the Alignment Adjustment Calibration Chart out from under the Background Plate and rotate it
clockwise 180 degrees. Notice that the lower left-hand quadrant of the document now contains two gray
squares in the margin. Reposition the chart under the Background Plate as you did in Step c above, except
that two gray square should be showing.
m. Close the document cover and touch Scan.
n. Notice that the bottom left of the screen displays: Scan Page(s): 4, indicating that four scans are
complete. Note also that the Start button is now visible.
o. Touch Start.
p. Remove the chart and black background sheet from the scanner.
q. Touch Confirm.
r. This completes the scanning of the Alignment Adjustment Calibration Chart. Go to Step 20 below to
continue.
Saving the profile
18. Now you must save the profile. By default, you
can first assign the profile to the tray from
which the paper was fed when you printed the
target. If you used the Document Feeder,
select the line shown next to the blue
checkmark on the screen. If you used the
Platen Glass, select an <Available> line (for
example Type 1, as shown). This will be the
location for the saved adjustments.
19. Touch Change Settings.
The profile opens for you to enter information.
20. Select the Name line.
21. Touch Change Settings.
22. Using the Touch Screen keyboard, enter a profile name, so that users can select the profile for print jobs.
Name the profile with the tray number, paper size, and weight. For example, tray 2_11x17_90 gsm.
23. Touch Save.
