Feed Comp by print condition
Conditions such as feed speed differ depending on the
print mode.
By providing the correction value according to each mode,
it is possible to reduce the work of changing correction
values when outputting different print modes within the
same setting.
1
Set the media. ( P.2-4)

Each correction value is applied according to the
printing conditions.
(1) 480x600 1, 2 pass (1 pass is 4 color set only)
(2) 600x600 1, 2 pass (1 pass is 4 color set only)
(3) Others
The print mode except for (1) and (2) is
720x600, 600x1200 all pass.
• When OFF:
One correction value is applied to all modes.
• You can check all correction values by pressing

If the Positions of Dots Shift...
When the condition for printing (media thickness/ink type/
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 Printed Pattern
1
Set a media on the machine. ( P.2-4)
• In order to print a pattern, a media that is 500 mm
wide at least is necessary.
2
Press
(MENU)
in LOCAL.

patterns are called Pattern 1, Pattern 2, Pattern
3... in the order of printing.)
6
Press to enter a correction value
of Pattern 1, and press the key.
• Corrected feeding rate: -40 to 40
• 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 and
40, adjust the height of the printing heads and
then perform the operations in Step 2 and later.
7
In the same way as in Step 4, enter a
correction value of Pattern 2 and later, and
press the key.
8
Press the key several times to

direction form a straight line.
In this case, the dot position correction
value is 4.0.
