Warning—Potential Damage: In some cases the adjustment process may take several tightening and loosening
cycles of the printhead mounting screws. Care should be taken to avoid stripping the mounting screw bosses.
Use only a manual hex head screwdriver, for this reason.

print a final Quick Test Page for verification.

adjustment” on page 393.
