The difference between the NGP and 25x0 is the process speed.
The NGP works with one speed, but the 25x0 works with two speeds.
Excluding some conditions, 25x0 works basically with 140.8mm/sec.
If the width of paper narrower than A4 or Letter, the 25x0 works with 76.7mm/sec.
If the length of paper is shorter than A5-R or Half-Letter-R, 25x0 works with
76.7mm/sec (including all size of pasteboard, post card and envelope too).

Shift Printing
The normal paper output passes the PDS sensor as
it passes through Exit Roller. In the shift printing
output, the printing path is the same as normal
printing path until the PDS sensor. The shift motor
moves when the paper passes the PDS sensor and
only the Exit Roller transports the paper, and the
paper moves to the shift position.

When the shift function is used, the travel time of the shift function is needed. Therefore, paper distance
broadens more than normal output. Because it broadens between paper, PPM in the shift output
becomes 20 PPM, though the process speed doesn't change.

Adjustments - Registration
Printer, FBS (Flatbed Scanner), and ADF (Automatic Document Feeder)
When the machine produces a printed image that is not centered on the page, but
has shifted to the left, top, right, or bottom, adjustments may be needed to the printer,
FBS or ADF. These adjustments compensate for the alignment by moving the image
on the page to the correct margins.
Determining which items need to be adjusted (printer, FBS, or ADF) is done with the
test pattern print. A test pattern print is straight from memory, so if it is skewed, it is a
printer adjustment (as no scanning was involved). If the test pattern print is aligned
correctly, but a copy of the test pattern (made with the scanner) is not, then an
adjustment needs to be made on the ADF and FBS.
Once it has been determined whether it is a printer or scanner adjustment thats
needed, the appropriate corrective action can be chosen.
Adjustments - Printer Registration
Outline of printer registration adjustment:
1. Adjust the printer registration of the first cassette.
2. Adjust the zoom and scan position for the ADF and FBS.
3. After performing step 1 and 2, adjust the printer position for each cassette.
Printer registration adjustment procedure:
Printout the Ladder Test pattern from the first cassette.
Press, Setting, *, 0, 9, then select Test Pattern Print.
Select the D-Like test pattern.
Select the paper source, number of prints, and press Yes.
2 Make sure that the test pattern has a 0.12+/- 0.08 inch (3 +/- 2mm) margin on
both top and side.
3. If the margin is not correct, proceed to step 4. If the margin is correct, this step
is complete.
Adjustments - Printer Registration
4. To adjust the printer registration:
1. Press Setting, *, 4, 3.
2. Select the paper source (cassette) to be adjusted.
3. Select Vertical Registration or Horizontal Registration.
Adjustments - Printer Registration
4. Adjust the printer registration
Example:
When set to +12.3 for vertical registration, the printing image moves 12.3mm
downward. If set to 12.3, the printing image moves 12.3 mm upward.
When set to +12.3 for horizontal registration, the printing image moves 12.3 mm
to the right If set to 12.3, the printing image moves 123 mm to the left.
The adjustment range is between -127 mm and +127 mm.
