Figure 2 - 4. Column Alignment Scale
Step 6.
The Column Alignment Scale is on the top of the ribbon support platform. It is to be used for general guidance in horizontally aligning the form for each print job. The leftmost mark on the scale indicates the location of the first, or leftmost, printable character. Each successive tick mark indicates the location of additional 10 CPI characters.
Unlock the right tractor and move it so that the paper's holes align directly over the tractor pins, making sure that the paper is straight, then close the tractor door. Gently push the tractor to the right until the paper is smooth.
Unlock the left tractor and, keeping the paper reasonably taut, holding onto both tractors, move the paper to the left or the right until it is roughly aligned with the desired mark on the Column Alignment Scale. Lock both tractors.
