Detecting Register Marks Automatically After Sheet Detection

Set the automatic register mark search function after sheet detection.
Register marks will be searched for automatically after sheet detection provided both register mark detection and registration mark searching are enabled.
Bidirectional scans are made over the preset scanning width from the origin after sheet detection at a spacing corresponding to half the register mark size. Register mark detection is then performed when lines, points, or printed objects are discovered.
Once the vertical and horizontal lines of a register mark have been detected, this is recognized as a register mark, and the origin is set.
