Chapter 3 Printer Adjustments
Media Width Adjustment
The head pressure varies according to the width of the media being
printed. The head pressure balance must be adjusted according to media
width so that constant head pressure is applied to the head. With this
printer, it can be adjusted easily by turning the media width adjustment
dial. If the printing is blurred or lightly printed on one side or the media
moves in a zigzag pattern adjust the head pressure balance.
After making an adjustment, conrm the output quality with a test print.
When using narrow media, be sure to MAKE this adjustment. (If you
do not, the head may be damaged by jamming, etc.)
