2. Ensure that forms are properly threaded through Printer 1 and Printer 2.
3. If you would like to change the length of the paper between the printers,
select the appropriate paper advance (feed page) key on the Align Forms
panel or on the printer operator panel.
To permanently change the length of the paper between printers, change the
value of "Printer 1 to Printer 2 Distance" on the Printer - Setup panel (Printer
Definition → Printer → Setup ).
4. Select Printer 1 Aligned on the Align Forms panel after you have visually
verified that the forms are aligned. This activates the Align Printer 2 function.
5. Select Align Printer 2.
a. This prints an alignment mark on a page in Printer 1, which is designated
as an alignment page.
If you are using perforated forms, the alignment mark is printed on the
leading perforation of the page.
A one-bar or two-bar pattern is also printed on the alignment page to
show whether Side 1 or Side 2 of the form is being printed on Printer 1.
b. This feeds a fixed length of forms through both Printer 1 and Printer 2.
The fixed length is based on the Printer 1 to Printer 2 Distance
configuration item shown on the Printer - Setup panel. It is a multiple of
the current loaded Snapshot page length that is closest to the "Printer 1 to
Printer 2 Distance" without exceeding it.
6. Visually verify that the alignment mark printed on Printer 1 is aligned to the
correct form length mark on the input station alignment scale on Printer 2.
