Roland SG weird prints

Trying to run print-cut adjustment and I have the attached result. It only does this when I print-cut adjust. I can print detailed images just fine. It's like double vision or ghosing. Anyone run up against this? I factory reset to default, but still happens.

What do your job prints look like? Print a file that has some fine detail and, ideally, something with small text. If you see this same "double" image, you need to run the bi-directional alignment. If you can get into service mode, start there and then do the user bidirectional alignment.

Regular prints are perfect. How do you enter service mode again? Thanks.

If you are using TR2 inks, you can't get in Service mode, only an on-site Roland certified tech can. However, you should run the bi-directional detail alignment in the user menu. See attached...

Here's the SG-540 user menu. Is yours different from this?
