(4)The printhead angle has been factory set. In order to ensure that it is still correct, compare the test card with the images on the back page of this document.

N.B. If your test card shows a completely different test image from those on the back page, you will need to download the correct test image from the Ultra website at www.ultra.co.uk/support . This image can then be printed from any paint package on your PC.

(5)If the printhead angle requires adjustment take note of the current position of the printhead angle adjustment screws (at the upper rear corner on each nylon side bracket).

NOTE : There are now two different types of nylon side brackets – one with 7 adjustment holes and one with 9 adjustment holes (see diagrams below).

(6)With reference to the relevant diagram (below) and the diagram on the rear page, decide which of the adjustment holes that the screws need to be moved to.

(7)Remove both printhead angle adjustment screws and raise or lower the rear of the printhead in order to align the required hole in the nylon bracket with the inner hole of the brass heatsink, and fit and tighten the two printhead adjustment screws.

NOTE : If a printhead angle adjustment screw is moved to a different hole then the other screw must be moved to the corresponding hole on the other side of the printhead assembly.

(8) Steps (3) to (7) should be repeated until the optimum printhead angle is obtained.
