Description
The bidirectional-printing mode (in which the heads perform printing during both their outbound pass
and return pass) oers the advantage of being able to shorten printing 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 head height and the thickness of
the media, so we recommend performing correction to match the media you're using.
This settings also serves to correct for misalignment of the printing and cutting positions. In such cases,
check or adjust this setting.
