- Check the skew measurements in this table to see if the printer meets the spec.
Note: Is the Skew on the Simplexed or a Duplexed side? Look at the section Image Orientation in the
Tray found earlier in this guide to decide which side is skewed.

Calculated by taking the width or length of the paper (in millimeters) and multiplying it by the Simplex Skew Specification:
Example using Letter Size Paper:
Paper Width (mm) x Simplex Skew Specification (mm/mm) = Acceptable Skew Amount for Top/Bottom
216mm (letter paper width) x 0.005mm/mm = 1.0mm
Paper Length (mm) x Simplex Skew Specification (mm/mm) = Acceptable Skew Amount for Left/Right
279mm (letter paper length) x 0.005mm/mm = 1.0mm

Calculated by taking the width or length of the paper (in millimeters) and multiplying it by the Duplex Skew Specification:
Example using Letter Size Paper:
Paper Width (mm) x Duplex Skew Specification (mm/mm) = Acceptable Skew Amount for Top/Bottom
216mm (letter paper width) x 0.005mm/mm = 1.0mm
Paper Length (mm) x Duplex Skew Specification (mm/mm) = Acceptable Skew Amount for Left/Right
279mm (letter paper length) x 0.005mm/mm = 1.0mm
