6.4 Adjusting the head locking system
The print head is pressed down by two plungers that are
positioned in the middle of the head bracket in the home
position. This setting can be retained for most applications.
The plungers can be adjusted if bright patches occur in the
side margin areas of a print image when using very wide
materials.
