Chapter 2: Basic Operation
You can set up to three align points. Change the number of points set with [ALIGN POINT]
as required.
The locations on the media of ALIGN POINT 1 through ALIGN POINT 3 are fixed. The
machine automatically determines from the location of the BASE POINT which ALIGN
POINT or points have been set. The screen display the number of each ALIGN POINT
that has been set. For information about the location of ALIGN POINTS, see the previous
section, "Printing with Crop Marks."
Set the align points after you set the BASE POINT. Setting the BASE POINT after setting
ALIGN POINTS clears all the previously set ALIGN POINTS.
Aligning Manually
Depending on the type of media, it may not be possible to detect crop marks automatically. When crop marks cannot be
detected automatically, you perform alignment manually.
