Adjusting the Punch Horizontal Position (Paper Feed Direction)

You can adjust the paper feed direction of punch hole position to fix the distance from the edge of punched output to the punch hole position

As an example, this section explains how to bring the punch hole position 1.5 mm closer to the edge of punched output by using the Finisher FS-532 mounted Punch Kit PK-522.
