Mark the target area on the registration paste.
Place the impression plate in position. The tomographic
lights form a cross which indicates the imaging position.
Adjust the lights so that they hit the marking on the
registration paste as described in section 15.2 "Adjusting
position of target area" on page 88. Light A must be
parallel to tangent of the jaw curve and light B must be
perpendicular to the jaw.
