Default nyko sucks

i bought an xbox 360 custom faceplate maker kit thingy from nyko. i was printing a custom one out. the instructions clearly show it being printed instructions-side-up, so that's how i put it in. it printed on the instructions, so i turned it around. it printed upside down. then i realized the instructions are supposed to face down when it prints, but by that time i had wasted one of my 15 blank templates and a whole lot of colored ink. long story short, nyko is run by a bunch of mental patients. just thought i'd let you know.

You mean it was printed with your printer?

Thats sorta your fault for not loading the sheet into the printer right. Nyko can't make instructions for the several hundreds of printer models.

well, it said, side a: put this on the bottom if your printer prints pages bottom first, then upside down under that it said, side b, put this on the bottom if your printer prints pages top first.

they're universal instructions, but they still didn't even work.

Do what I do.

Don't use the instructions!

Experiment with a blank sheet a paper, and mark it side a and side b. Print an image, and see which side the printer prints the image on, and then use that for reference when you load the xbox template. Universal instructions are barely guidlines, they can't cover every possibility.

very true. but my point is that the istructions specifically tell you to print it upside-down.
