Administration/Engine/Image Alignment
The Image Alignment option allows you to adjust the horizontal
and vertical placement of printed images. To check image
alignment, print a standard status page (this option is located in the
Administration/Special Pages menu). When the printer is placing
images properly, the alignment tickmarks at the lower left of a
status page are 0.5"/12.7 mm from the left and bottom edges of the
page. If the tickmarks are off, use this option to align the image
horizontally and vertically in pixel increments (

" or .08 mm),
from 000 to 300 pixels (300 pixels = 1" or 25.4 mm). The factory

(for horizontal alignment) or down (for vertical alignment); values
below 100 move the image left (for horizontal alignment) or up (for
vertical alignment). See “Entering Alphanumeric Values,” earlier
in this chapter, if you’re not sure how to enter a number in the
message window.
NOTE: Engine constraints may limit the accuracy of pixel
alignment.
Administration/Engine/Default Paper
Default Paper specifies a media size for the printer to use if it does
not recognize the size specified for a job. The choices are letter and
A4. The factory default is letter. Change the default to A4 if you
print on metric-size media.
Administration/Engine/Inputbin 1 Name

(input bin). For example, you may want to name it “Letterhead” if
you always keep letterhead paper in that cassette. The factory
default is upper.
Administration/Engine/Inputbin 2 Name
