Head slant auto
adjustment
(PF direction)
Correct slant of the Print Head in the PF
direction. An adjustment pattern is printed and
the IM Sensor scans the pattern. Based on the
scanned result, a number of steps to move the
lever for the adjustment is displayed. Move the
lever the number of steps to correct the head
slant.
If this adjustment is not made, the gap between
the Print Head surface and paper is kept uneven
(e.g.: the gap at the front side is wider than that at
the rear side), and causes irregularity in size and
position of printed dots. This may be observed as
print quality problems such as grainy image,
banding, or color unevenness.

Tube inner cleaning
Clean the ink flow paths to resolve the solidified
ink in the paths and clogging of nozzles of the
Print Head. Or, when leaving the printer unused
for a long period, doing this in advance can
prevent ink from getting solidified. Use the
Cleaning Cartridge for service and the Service
Program.
If the printer is left unused for a long period
without doing this after discharging ink, the ink
left in the ink flow paths may get solidified. Once
the ink becomes solidified, charging new ink may
become impossible or dot missing may occur.
