2.10 Feed Correction
Changing the media may affect the feed amount due to various factors, including the weight and thickness of
the media and whether the take-up unit is used. Correct the drop position to suit the type of media used.
Image defects (e.g., dark or light streaks) will result if the feed is not properly corrected.
Check beforehand
• Is media loaded? "Loading the Media"(P. 54)
• Does the heater temperature suit the media to be used? "Setting the Heater
Temperature"(P. 70)
• For roll media, is the rear roll media free of sagging?
• When using the take-up unit, is the media mounted on the paper core of the take-up unit? "Loading
the Roll Media"(P. 59)
Feed Correction Procedure
