[X offset ({0})]

The image is shifted in X direction (feed direction) in mm (inches).

A shift > 0 moves the image to the right-hand side (trailing edge):

  • The distance between the leading edge of the sheet and the image on the sheet increases.

  • The distance between the trailing edge of the sheet and the image on the sheet decreases.

  • The circles on the verification chart move to the right-hand side (trailing edge).

A shift < 0 moves the image to the left-hand side (leading edge):

  • The distance between the leading edge of the sheet and the image on the sheet decreases.

  • The distance between the trailing edge of the sheet and the image on the sheet increases.

  • The circles on the verification chart move to the left-hand side (leading edge).

[Z offset ({0})]

The image is shifted in Z direction (perpendicular on the feed direction) in mm (inches).

A shift > 0 moves the image to the top of the sheet:

  • The distance between the top of the sheet and the image on the sheet decreases.

  • The circles on the verification chart move to the top of the sheet.

A shift < 0 moves the image to the bottom of the sheet:

  • The distance between the top of the sheet and the image on the sheet increases.

  • The circles on the verification chart move to the bottom of the sheet.

  • The distance between the leading edge of the sheet and the image on the sheet increases.

  • The distance between the trailing edge of the sheet and the image on the sheet decreases.

  • The dots on the verification chart move to the right-hand side (trailing edge).

A shift < 0 moves the image to the left-hand side (leading edge):

  • The distance between the leading edge of the sheet and the image on the sheet decreases.

  • The distance between the trailing edge of the sheet and the image on the sheet increases.

  • The dots on the verification chart move to the left-hand side (leading edge).

[Z offset ({0})]

A shift > 0 moves the image to the top of the sheet:

  • The distance between the top of the sheet and the image on the sheet decreases.

  • The dots on the verification chart move to the top of the sheet.

A shift < 0 moves the image to the bottom of the sheet:

  • The distance between the top of the sheet and the image on the sheet increases.

  • The dots on the verification chart move to the bottom of the sheet.

Range (mm)

Range (inches)

[X offset ({0})]

-5.0 to +5.0

-0.197 to +0.197

[Z offset ({0})]

-2.5 to +2.5

NOTE

If the shift is too much, the image be printed over the edges of the sheet.

  • Risk of reprinting.

  • Risk of system pollution.
