Adjusting the feed amount

Follow these steps to adjust the scale for better accuracy.

1. When using sheets, load one unused sheet A4/Letter-sized or larger. When using a roll, load a roll 10 inches (254 mm) or wider.

•Loading Rolls on the Roll Holder (→P.119)

•Loading Rolls in the Roll Feed Unit (→P.121)

•Loading the Roll in the Printer (→P.122)

•Loading Sheets Manually (→P.151)

Note

•When loading paper, specify the correct paper type. When the paper type is not specied, the printing quality may be affected without the correct adjustment of the feeding.

•We recommend using the type of paper you use most often for feed amount adjustment.

2.Press the Menu button to display MAIN MENU.

3. Press ▲ or ▼ to select Adjust Printer, and then press the ► button.

A test pattern is printed for adjustment based on the amount of paper stretching or shrinkage. The scale bar shows “Millimeter” in 50 mm units and “Inch” in 1 inch units.

6. Measure the length of the adjustment pattern. Calculate the difference between the measured length and actual length. Enter it as a percentage and press the OK button.

You can adjust the value in 0.02% increments. Press ▲ to increase the value and ▼ to decrease it.

If the scale is printed shorter than actual size, set the value toward the positive side; if it is printed longer, set the value toward the negative side.

Note

•You can also specify the adjustment value by selecting Paper Details → Adjust Length.
