LSS Adjustment
The LSS is laterally adjusted using a screw protruding through the
outer lower gable. Turning the screw clockwise will move the LSS
inwards and vice versa. The position of the LSS in relation to the
media is best checked by looking head on into the print unit when
the printhead is lifted. Align the centerpoint of the V-shaped upper
sensor with the center of the gaps to be detected.
The linear markings on the lower guide plate can also be used
for positioning of the LSS as they are spaced with an interval of
exactly 1 cm (0.39 inches) from the edge that guides the media.
This method is especially useful for black marks (measure the lat-
eral position of the black marks with a ruler).
