Hi John N,

Thanks...

I have to check the manual as I thought the 7000 only had the regular alignment that uses 
the whole width and about six feet of paper. 

One thing that I did was mark the adjustment levers on the head. There are three 
adjustment levers - two on the bottom and one on the side. I marked each one with a dot 
from a sharpie to get back to the settings if they moved. Only the side adjustment lever 
moved and I'm glad I marked it. Just before I put the head cover back on I set the lever to 
the dot. I hoped it helped!
