Canon BJC6500 - BJC 6500 Color Inkjet Printer, Service Manual, Page: 93 / 115

1.3 Form Alignment Function
In order to improve the paper feeding capability of the BJC-6500, such as reducing
skew, the printer has a built-in form alignment function to detect the top of fed media.
The form alignment function allows paper to press against the paper feed roller to
create a bend in the paper, and this bend forces the leading edge of the paper to
become aligned to permit straight-line feeding. The form alignment function is not
used, however, when printing in HS mode.
