Slip Printing
Slip Positioning
Forms are inserted from the front, top-of-form first, up to a form stop behind the
carriage, or inserted from the left side and over-ride the form stop. In each case
the form must be aligned with the check guide (right edge of the slip path). A
pair of optical sensors are located (a) 11 mm (.45 inch) above the print centerline
and 25 mm (1.00 inch) from the check guide, and (b) just inside the check guide
and 37 mm (1.45 inches) below the print centerline. The application can use these
for form-in and trailing edge detection. A green slip-in LED indicates when both
detectors are covered.
The application moves the form bi-directionally in 1/72-inch increments to
position the first line of print.
