Figure 61. Align Forms panel
1. If there is not enough slack to load forms through both printers, select the
appropriate paper advance (feed page) key on the Align Forms panel or on
the printer operator panel, to advance enough forms through Printer 1 to load
Printer 2.
2. Select Forms → Align Forms to display the Align Forms panel.
3. 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.
4. 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.
Note: When forms are longer than 14" in size, the printer prints a dashed
line with 14" next to it. Line this mark up with the 14" mark on the ruler
in Printer 2. Otherwise, the alignment line would not reach the ruler.
b. This feeds a fixed length of forms through Printer 1.
The fixed length is a multiple of the current loaded Snapshot page length
that is closest to the "Printer 1 to Printer 2 Distance" without exceeding it.
5. Load the forms in Printer 2. See "Loading forms" on page 69 to select the
appropriate load procedure.
