How to print accurately

  1. Download the vector PDF and open it in a standard PDF viewer.
  2. Choose the matching paper size in printer settings.
  3. Select Actual size or 100%; turn off Fit or Scale to page.
  4. Print one test page and measure the pattern interval before a large run.

Some printers cannot reach the paper edge. The built-in 12 mm margin keeps the pattern in a commonly printable region.
