5B Adjusting Print Alignment

Eddie comes from the factory calibrated to print exactly to the edge of Primera Cookies. Eddie senses the beginning of the print object height and the front and back edge of the print object with an optical sensor. However, due to variability, it may be necessary to fine-tune these settings.

Adjust print alignment using the Eddie Config Utility. Click on the Alignment Tab (Third Tab).

Two items can be adjusted here:

• Horizontal. This value moves the printed image left or right. Add to the current value to move the printed image to the right. Subtract from the current value to move the printed image to the left. After adjusting the value, click the "Set Offsets" button to send the value to the Printer.
• Vertical. This value moves the print start position up or down on the print object. Add to the current value to move the printed image down or toward the Printer. Subtract from the current value to move the printed image up or away from the Printer. After adjusting the value, click the Set Offsets button to send the value to the Printer.

You may have to make several adjustments to one or more of these values. After each adjustment, you can click the "Test" button to print a small test pattern on the print object. This will help you find the proper alignment value.
