The range required for the detection of registration marks is as shown below.
Blank margins must be left between the medium edges and the registration marks to enable the marks to
be read.
Reading range required for the detection of registration marks
• Incorrect detection may occur if there are marks other than registration marks
within the reading range. If drawings overlap the registration-mark reading range,
refer to “Setting the Registration-mark detection movement distance.”
• Incorrect detection may occur if the registration-mark reading range is dirty or
foreign matter is adhering to the medium surface.
