  3. Affix single-color masking tape to the positions shown in the figure on the flat table.
    MEMO We recommend white masking tape to reduce printing time for alignment markers.
    • The affixing area (A) should be at least 12 mm (0.48 in.) from the white line.

    • If the white line is transparent, apply the tape over the white line until it is no longer transparent or use non-transparent tape.

      It may not be possible to read the alignment markers if the line is visible.
