RIP Settings
Item Parameter Explanation
Platen Gap
1.5
Change Platen Gap (the gap between the print head and the media) for
the media setting bank selected in the software RIP.
The default setting of 1.5 is recommended in most situations. Choose 2.0 if
printout is scratched or smudged. Select 2.5 only if print results are still
smudged when 2.0 is selected. Choosing a larger gap than required may
result in ink stains inside the printer, reduced print quality, or shorter
product life.

Tension Measurement
Periodically
Choose Periodically or Every Page to have the printer automatically
monitor and adjust media tension during printing for optimal results, Off
to disable automatic tension adjustment.
Periodically is recommended in most circumstances.
The printer may however be unable to adjust tension appropriately for
some media, resulting in excessive slack or other maladjustments that
cause printing problems, in which case you should select Off. Note,
however, that Off may result in unusually large margin between pages. In
addition, printing may not stop and the inside of the printer may become
stained. Observe the following precautions:
❏ Do not print at the end of a roll
❏ Do not select Off for Media End Check.
Select Every Page for more precise tensioning, but note that print times
will increase.

Media Tension 0 to 40 Increase tension if creases appear in the media during printing. The higher
