Abstract:
A skew sensor calibration unit including a scanner providing a scanned image of a sheet as the sheet is conveyed along a transport path, the scanned image including a leading edge of the sheet and a skew detection pattern printed thereon by a printhead. A calibration module measures a top skew of the sheet based on position signals from a plurality of skew sensors indicating a position of a leading edge of a sheet as the sheet is conveyed along the transport path, measure an image skew of the sheet relative to the printhead based on the scanned image, and generates a calibration factor that when applied to the measured top skew provides a calibrated top skew that matches the image skew.

Claim (Index 10):
The method of  claim 9 , measuring the print skew including measuring a skew distance from the leading edge to the line at a plurality of locations across the sheet based on pixel values of the scanned image corresponding to the plurality of locations, the plurality of location spaced from one another by predetermined distances and the pixel values representing reflectance values of the sheet.
