properly aligned, you can use the printer's bidirectional
adjustment mode to correct this problem.
Note:
To complete the steps below, you need four sheets of A3-size single-
sheet paper or four pages of continuous paper that are at least 11

time the printer ejects a printed sheet onto the paper guide.
Follow these steps to perform the bidirectional adjustment:

alignment patterns and select the pattern with the best
alignment in each set.

the printer or the computer is the cause of a printing problem.
You can print the self test using either single sheets or
continuous paper.

A3-size paper.
To perform a self test, follow these steps:

seconds before turning it back on; otherwise you may
damage the printer.

source of your printing problem; however, the draft test
