Bidirectional Adjustment
You can adjust dot registration and print quality for characters on your printer by
running the bidirectional adjustment test pattern. The test pattern consists of three
parts: two groups of Hs (four lines each) with the current alignment value above
them and a line of Hs and Is printed on one line. You can set bidirectional
adjustment from -6 to 6 (where each unit is 0.212 mm [1/120 in.]). The default
value is 0.

All paper must be removed from the tractors, and all covers must be installed and
closed before selecting this parameter.
Note: Sensor Tune is available only in the Operator Print Tests menu.
