[Gap]
Overview
Simply adjust only the magnification and image position of the back side based on the image position of the front side.
This is useful for 2-sided printing with a new paper type, or when the amount of misalignment between both sides is unknown after changing the paper in the paper tray, because adjustment can be performed by just entering the adjustment value.
