9-52 Confidential

 Selectors 3 to 5: Paper feed amount compensation (for preventing banding at the leading edge of

recording paper fed from the photo tray)

This compensation function is usually enabled for preventing banding (horizontal streaks) from

occurring at the leading edge of recording paper fed from the photo tray.

When postcards or small size paper are fed from the standard paper tray, however, this

compensation function can be counterproductive. If so, disable the function, and the print quality

may be improved.

 Selector 6: Registration time offset to slipping in plain paper feeding

Enabling the registration time offset with this selector increases the registration time (during which

the paper feed roller rotates in the reverse direction), avoiding the occurrence of a paper feeding

timeout error even if the paper cannot reach the registration sensor actuator within the predetermined

registration time due to slipping of the paper pull-in rollers against paper in the paper tray.

Selecting the "Fast" print quality disables the registration time offset even if it is enabled with this

selector.

NOTE: Selecting the "Glossy paper" automatically enables the registration time offset.

 Selector 7: Unidirectional print for higher print quality

The machine prints bidirectionally by default. To get higher print quality, set this selector to "1" to

switch to the unidirectional print mode in which printing is performed only when the head/carriage

unit travels from left to right. Note that the unidirectional print mode sacrifices the print speed.
