2.When the print density on the left and right sides is not equal (when the paper with a different width has been used):

The right head pressure viewed from the front of the panel can be adjusted with the head pressure adjust-screw. Turning the adjust-screw clockwise decreases the head pressure and turning the adjust-screw counterclockwise increases the head pressure. And the condition of the right side of the print head can be checked through the upper frame window, which is located at the front of the printer mechanism unit.

Adjustments

Normally, the left and right head pressure has already been factory-set to same loads. The check marks of the upper frame window are located at the right side of the printer viewed from the front of the printer.

Adjustments are needed in the following cases:

1)When the print on the left side is too light, turn the head pressure adjust- screw clockwise.

2)When the print on the right side is too light, turn the head pressure adjust-screw counterclockwise.

3)When the paper with a different small width is used, the contact between the print head and the platen becomes large, so the stepping motor will take a heavy load or the print head may scrape the platen. To avoid this, turn the head pressure adjust-screw clockwise to decrease the right head pressure.

In addition, adjustments will be useful for preventing the ribbon wrinkling or the paper skew. For more information, contact our service personnel.
