HEAD ALIGNMENT
This menu contains the following items.
PAPER THKNS
You can adjust the paper thickness of the paper that you are going
to use. If you use Epson special media and its paper thickness is
0.2mm or 1.2mm, select STD. If you use non-Epson special media,
enter the paper thickness in the range of 0.0 to 1.6mm.
ALIGNMENT
You can correct any head misalignment to obtain optimum
printing results. For details, see “Aligning the print head” on page
34.
Checking the print head nozzles
To find out if nozzles are delivering ink properly, you can print a
nozzle check pattern. If the nozzles are not delivering ink
properly, missing dots will be evident in the print pattern. To
print a nozzle check pattern, follow these steps.
Note:
Before you start printing your data, make sure that the nozzle check
pattern printing is complete. Otherwise, print quality may decline.
