    5.2.3.1 Setting and Verification of Registration This section covers setting and verifying registration of the printer. WARNING! Make sure the printer has all the covers in place when you perform the test print. To set the printer registration, do the following: 1 Remove all paper from trays except the tray to be tested/adjusted.
  • Page 178 The two methods to verify registration are: 1. IOT Test Print (see Figure 5.2.2.1) • Measure 4mm from the top edge (lead edge) of the paper to the top edge of the IOT Test Print. • Measure 4mm from the left edge of the paper to the left edge of the IOT Test Print. NOTE: The ideal registration should measure 4mm in both directions to properly register the test pattern on the page.
