Platen Gap 1.2
Displayed when Custom Paper is selected in Paper Type. When
registering Custom Paper, this is the Platen Gap (distance between
print head and paper) for the paper selected in Change Reference
Paper, so it does not normally need to be changed. Change this to a
setting that will widen the gap (a higher value) if print results are
smeared.
