scale mark in Printer 2, select the appropriate paper advance (feed page)
key on the Align Forms panel or on the printer operator panel, pressing as

Printer 2.
c. If the Printer 1 alignment mark is past the forms length scale mark in
printer 2, add some more buffer loop between Printer 1 and the
Buffer/Flipper Unit by selecting the appropriate paper advance (feed page)
key several times. Then select Cancel on the panel. You must now perform
