Adjusting the feed amount

Adjusting the Measurement Scale for Better Accuracy

To adjust the measurement scale and ensure accuracy (so that lines in CAD drawings are printed at exactly the right length, for example), specify the amount of paper stretching or shrinkage when adjusting the feed amount.

Note

If printed images are affected by banding in different colors, adjust the amount that paper is fed. (→P.580)

Important

Use paper of the same type and size for adjustment as you will use for printing.

To apply the results of adjusting the measurement scale for better accuracy in printing, you must rst set Feed Priority to Print Length. Note that if you select Automatic, the results of adjustment will only be applied in printing if you set Print Priority in the printer driver to Line Drawing/Text. (→P.216)

3.Press or to select the type of paper, and then press the button.
