Correct the ink drop position for bidirectional printing
When the condition for printing (media thickness/head height/etc.) has been changed, perform the following
operation to correct the ink drop position for bidirectional (Bi) printing and obtain the proper printing result.
Example of a Drop Position correct Printed Pattern
1
Set a media on the machine and set a printing origin. ( P.2-5)

• Corrected feeding rate: -40.0 to 40.0
• Check the test patterns. The position where an outward feeding
line and a return feeding line become one straight line is the
correction value.
• When the correction value in not between -40.0 and 40.0, adjust
the height of the printing heads and then perform the operations in
Step 2 and later.
The dots at the fourth position counted from the zero
position in the positive direction form a straight line.
In this case, the dot position correction value is 4.0.
