Edge-to-Edge Printing 3-43

◆ During Load Media, the printer locates two points on

each of the leading, left, and right edges of the media.

The printer uses these data points, and assumes 90-

degree corners and parallel sides, to determine the skew

of the media. If the media is skewed enough that an

unprinted left or right edge may result, even with a mar-

gin of 0 and the amount of overprinting specified, the

control panel displays a message with the skew amount:

Correct the skew by nudging the trailing edge of the

media by the distance left or right as reported by the

control panel, without releasing the pinch rollers. Allow

the printer to measure the media again. Repeat until the

skew is within tolerance.

Note

LEFT and RIGHT are defined as if facing the front of

the printer: RIGHT is toward the control panel, LEFT

is toward the opposite end.

Tip

If you set the overprint distance to a smaller number,

there will be less skew tolerance before the printer

reports too much skew. If you set a larger overprint

distance, the printer will permit a greater amount of

media skew before displaying the error message.
