When printing an overlay, if the data doesn't align properly, a horizontal and/or vertical margin offset will usually align the data on the form. Generally a + or - horizontal offset will move the data right or left, + or - vertical offset will move down or up. This however can change based on the page rotation command within the job. If a particular setting moves the wrong direction you will need to try the other direction or rotation. The offset command is based on 1/60 of an inch, &%I42,-15 will move the data to the left 1/4", &%I43,15 will move the data down on the page 1/4". This is on the assumption the job is printing at a 0 degree page rotation. Once you get the form printing correctly, send down an &%I99,0 to save the setting to nv ram. Sending down the command to the 4465 is accomplished by typing the command on a host command line and doing a print screen, the page should print out on the printer attached to the 4465. |
