Arrgh. I'm an idiot.

I'll spare you the details as to why, but I need to know there any guide to align a printed gerber registration mark with a point on the edge 1 so that the job is homed?

(not using "return to home" in the rip, I have botched that already)


I assume there must be part of the assembly that lines up with the edge reg mark (or is a certain mm distance from it?)

Thanks for any help!!!

Ok I think i pulled it out of my #ss..

Just printed part of a copy of the same job with the regmark, measured the distance from the regmark to a point on the edge chassis, then aligned the original job referencing the distance to that point.

Whew. Anyone got any smoother ideas?

Going from memory, on my Edge LE, the target lines up to where it just appears inside the bail with the right side of the target touching the inside edge of the bail. That should get you to within .05" or closer.
