46.  Select the Z: down arrow until it reads -0.50.

NOTE: 

Visually inspect the gap between the tip of print jet 2 and the print 

pad for printers with 2 or 3 print jets. If there is still no gap, press the Z: 

down arrow until there is a gap.

47.  Press the X and Y adjustment arrows until print jet 2 (A) is closely aligned 

above the front print pad adjustment knob (B).

NOTE: 

The vertical red line in the illustration demonstrates an 

approximate alignment of print jet 2 and the front print pad adjustment 

knob.

48.  Press the Z: up arrow until the nozzle of print jet 2 lightly touches the print pad.

NOTE: 

If there is still a gap between the nozzle of print jet 2 and the print 

pad, and the Z: up arrow will not raise the print pad further, rotate the 

front print pad adjustment knob counter-clockwise until the nozzle lightly 

touches the print pad.

49.  Verify that the nozzles of print jet 1 and print jet 3 are also touching the printpad.
50.  When all of the print jet nozzles lightly touch the print pad, power off the printer 

and disconnect it from utility power.

51.  Tighten the left and right print jet T10 torx screws.

52.  Connect the printer to utility power and power on the printer.
53.  Ensure the print pad is at its lowest position in the printer.
54.  Power off the printer and disconnect it from utility power.
