Adjusting Print Position

If a document is printed off-center or out of the printable range, adjust the print position. You can adjust the print position for each paper source. You can adjust the print position in the range -0.20" to +0.20" (-5.0 mm to +5.0 mm) in increments of 0.01" (0.1 mm).

Checking the Direction and Distance to Adjust

When you adjust the print position, specify the direction using "+" and "-" and the distance using "mm." For <Adjust Vertically (Front Side)>/<Adjust Vertically (Back Side)>, specify a value with a "+" sign to shift the print position in the up-to-down direction. For <Adjust Horizontally (Front Side)>/<Adjust Horizontally (Back Side)>, specify a value with a "+" sign to shift the print position in the left-to-right direction. To shift in the reverse direction, specify a value with a "-" sign.
