Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for changing the calibration of a recording apparatus () to adjust for geometric distortion, comprising: providing a media support () for receiving recording media (); operating a recording head () comprising plurality of individually addressable recording channels () to form a first image feature () on the recording media while the recording media is positioned with a first orientation (A) on the media support; operating a recording head to form a second image feature () on the recording media while the recording media is positioned with a second orientation (B) on the media support, the second orientation being different from the first orientation; detecting variance in an expected separation between the first image feature and the second image feature; and making an imaging correction in accordance with the detected variance.
