Printer-to-Autoloader Alignment
In order to reliably handle CD/DVD discs, the Robot Arm, Robot Arm Tower, and FlashJet
4800 Printer must be properly aligned. If you purchased a complete
TEAC
Duplication
System, your unit was aligned and extensively tested prior to being shipped. If there was
no shipping damage, your system should function properly after you install the Printer. A
properly aligned system should handle thousands of discs without a problem, so the
easiest way to verify alignment is to run your system. If your system does not handle
new, name brand, CD/DVD discs reliably, perform the alignment check and adjustment
procedure described below.
If you purchased your Printer separately from the autoloader it is being used with, you
should check, and if necessary adjust, Printer-to-Autoloader Alignment before you use the
system. The alignment check and adjustment procedure that follows should also be used
periodically to maintain reliable disc handling.

1. From the top level of the main menu scroll down to
