double sided prints not lining up on 2400
« on: October 23, 2007, 04:15:00 pm »

Hey there
i have an epson 2400 and trying to make double sided prints. I am printing on 11x17 inch paper and pretty much have 4 5x7 prints on each side. the goal is to print one side, flip it over and print the second. and then cut it out so have a 5x7 on each side. unfortunately prints arent lining up. i tried measuring it and it looks like its 1/16th off, but then when I correct for that in the photoshop dialogue  it still isnt coming out correctly. has anyone had this problem and any ideas?

I can't understand why they haven't fixed these alignment issues.  This has been going on a long time.
Man, try to get a decent presentation or portfolio going with some precision, and yuh -uh-uh-uck!!!
Glad you found this useful - I pulled my hair out until I found it myself long ago.

Best wishes -
