ABSTRACT:
A scannable form for an optical mark scanning apparatus in the form of a generally rectangular sheet of paper or like material having a preprinted timing track along one edge and a plurality of preprinted quality assurance marks is printed by a laser printer with customized questions and corresponding response bubbles to create a survey form. An overprint registration system is used in conjunction with the scannable forms to align material for printing on the scannable forms prior to printing the survey form by printing an overprint registration mark corresponding to at least one of the quality assurance marks and adjusting the position of said overprint registration mark to establish the alignment between the response bubbles to be printed and the preprinted timing track. The system may also include a verification process wherein a plurality of alignment marks will be overprinted in the position of said overprint registration marks during the printing of the survey form, so that the alignment of each form in relation to the quality assurance marks may be verified during scanning.
