HP (Hewlett-Packard) QMS 1660 Printer User Manual


 
Through the Administration/Engine menu you can set print engine-
related parameters.
Usually, you don’t need to change the way images are placed on the
printed page. But if you do, the Image Alignment option allows you to
adjust both the horizontal and the vertical placement.
To check image alignment, print a standard status page (use the Sta-
tus Page key on the printer control panel) on letter/A4-size paper.
When the printer is placing images properly, the alignment angle bar
in the lower-left corner of the status page is 0.5"/12.7 mm from the left
and bottom edges of the page. If the angle bar is off, use the Image
Alignment option to align the image horizontally and vertically in pixel
increments (
1
/300" or 0.08 mm).
» Note:
Engine constraints may limit the accuracy of pixel alignment.
