Abstract:
A method for calibrating a multi-function printing (MFP) device includes printing a calibration target image on a first side of a print medium from at least one print medium source with a printing device of the MFP device. The calibration target image includes at least one fiducial. The method includes scanning the first side of the print medium comprising the calibration target image with a scanning device of the MFP device to create a first scanned image, identifying at least one edge of the print medium via a background pattern to determine a number of scan measurements, identifying at least one position of the at least one fiducial within the calibration target image, and calculating a calibration target error based on the at least one fiducial and the scan measurements.
