Aligning Print Head - Auto head align

Aligning the print head allows you to print without shifts in the color registration.

There are two ways to align the print head, automatic or manual. First, try adjusting the print head automatically. If the automatic print head aligning does not work or if you wish, you can adjust the print head manually. See “Adjusting the Print Head Manually” on page 44.
