the print is to be moved from the normal print position. The maximum
distance print may be moved is 9.99 inches in either direction.
Example
In this example, a number needs to be printed in a box on a preprinted form.
This form could be a packing list, an invoice, or a check. The first time the
page is printed, the number misses the box as shown below.

In this case, the print needs to be moved to the right and down. To
accomplish this, press ALIGN PRINT and access the Left/Right option. First
move the print to the right using the VALUE buttons. It appears that the text
needs to move about three characters. If the text is being printed at 10 cpi
(characters per inch), this would be 0.30 inches. After making this
adjustment the display would look as follows.
MOVE Left/Right
PRINT 0.30”
If you were to print this form now, it would appear as follows, showing that
the print still needs to be moved down.

To move the print down, access the Down/Up option by pressing either of
the ITEM buttons. It appears that the print needs to be moved down nearly
the height of the characters. These characters are approximately 0.10 inches
tall, so move the print down about 0.08 inches. The display should look
as follows.
MOVE Down/Up
PRINT 0.08”
Now when the form is printed again, the text will be printed in the box as
shown here.
