Description
This machine prints by the bidirectional mode (in which the print heads perform printing during both their outbound pass
and return pass). This printing method is called "Bidirectional Printing." This method oers the advantage of being able to
shorten output times, but subtle misalignment occurs during the outbound and return passes. The procedure to correct this
and eliminate misalignment is "Bidirectional Correction." This misalignment varies according to the print-head height and the
thickness of the media, so we recommend performing correction to match the media you're using.
