3. Select Printer 1 Aligned on the Align Forms panel after you have visually
verified the forms are aligned. Then select Align Printer 2 or press the
appropriate paper advance (feed page) key on the Printer 1 operator panel.
This restarts the alignment procedure.
a. This prints an alignment mark on a page in Printer 1, which is designated
as an alignment page.
If you are using perforated forms, the alignment mark is printed on the
leading perforation of the page.
A one-bar or two-bar pattern is also printed on the alignment page to show
whether Side 1 or Side 2 of the form is being printed on Printer 1.
Note: When forms are longer than 14" in size, the printer prints a dashed
line with 14" next to it. Line this mark up with the 14" mark on the ruler in
Printer 2. Otherwise, the alignment line would not reach the ruler.
b. This feeds a fixed length of forms through Printer 1.
It is a multiple of the current loaded Snapshot page length that is closest to
the "Printer 1 to Printer 2 Distance" without exceeding it.
4. Visually verify that the alignment mark printed on Printer 1 is aligned to the
correct form length mark on the input station alignment scale on Printer 2.
a. If the alignment mark is aligned at Printer 2, check to see if there are
enough forms between Printer 1 and the Buffer/Flipper Unit. If you need to
increase the buffer loop, change the "Printer 1 to Printer 2 Distance" printer
configuration item. See the item in the Printer Definition Items table in the
Planning and Configuration Guide for more information.
