Note that the left margin is not straight. If you notice misaligned printing, use the following procedure to check and correct the vertical print alignment Procedure Make sure that continuous forms paper is loaded in the printer. If possible, use forms at least 216 mm (85 inches) wide for 80-column printers or 356 mm (14 inches) wide for 136-column printers to avoid printing on the platen. However, you can also use letter or A4 size forms if you set the WIDTH option in MENU1 to 8 inches. See the section Changing MENU1 and MENU2 Options for details. Then proceed as follows to check and correct vertical print alignment 1. Enter setup mode. Press the FONT button and the MENU button simultaneously until the printer beeps.
