Thread/Align Forms

Select this task when you load forms in duplex mode. This procedure is also automatically called when the system is powered-on in duplex mode and during some error and jam recovery procedures.

All of the controls you need to accomplish this procedure are available on the

Display Touch Screen windows.

This procedure initially displays a Setup Thread/Align Forms window (see

Figure 30).

 

Notes:

 

1.

Proper completion of this task is important to ensure that Printer 2 prints side 2

 

 

pages correctly opposite the side 1 pages that were previously printed by

 

 

Printer 1.

 

2.

You can print veri®cation marks on both sides of the pages by using the

 

 

Veri®cation marks Printer Con®guration Item. You can then visually inspect

 

 

these marks to ensure that sides 1 and 2 of the forms are properly

 

 

synchronized. See ªVeri®cation Marksº on page 224 for more information.

3.

The dashed line is used to align the forms in the printers. The solid line is used

 

to align postprocessing equipment if any is attached.
