  1. Press [Settings]>[Maintenance]>[Improve Print Quality]>[Alignment].
  2. Press [Next].
  3. Press [Yes] after a confirmation message if a print quality check has been completed appears on the LCD.
  4. Press [Auto] or [Manual].
    • If you select the [Auto] mode, the print alignment is automatically adjusted by scanning the Alignment Check Sheet.
    • If you select the [Manual] mode, you need to input information printed on the Alignment Check Sheet manually.
  5. If you selected the [Auto] mode, select the paper size to print the Alignment Check Sheet on.
  6. Load specified size paper in the tray, and then press [Start].
    The machine prints the Alignment Check Sheet.
