Zusammenfassung:	A printing system can include a movable support and a linehead disposed on the movable support. The linehead is positioned opposite a print media and jets ink onto a surface of the print media. One or more linehead skew adjustment mechanisms are configured to move the movable support to adjust a skew of the linehead. The printing system can include an imaging system that captures images of the surface of the print media and a processing device that analyzes the images to determine if the print media is skewed and to determine one or more linehead skew adjustment values when the print media is skewed.
