|
|
|
| Far End Margin | Setting |
|
|
|
| 5 mm | For media that has no problem when |
|
| printing with a standard size margin. |
| 10 mm | When printing an image at the very end |
|
| of the end margin, the cutter touches the |
|
| page before the ink has dried and dirties |
|
| the printed image. This setting sets the |
|
| margin about 5 mm (in the feed |
|
| direction) longer than the standard |
|
| margin for the media size. |
Important
When you set the margin smaller, the printed image may not print properly or, with some media, the printhead may scratch the surface.
c.From the Printhead Height Adjustment Lever Setting Position list in Roll Paper Margin for Safety set the position of the printhead height adjustment lever set with the printer to match the media.
The following settings are available for Printhead Height Adjustment Lever Setting Position.
Printhead Height |
|
Adjustment Lever Setting | Setting |
Position |
|
Upper | For media that has a strong tendency to |
| curl, causing the printhead to scratch |
| the surface. |
| Before you start a print job, check the |
| setting of the printhead height |
| adjustment lever. |
Middle (Standard) | For standard media. |
|
|
Lower | Select this setting to print fine, delicate |
| lines of the highest precision as in a |
| CAD design or drawing. |
| However, the ink absorption |
| characteristics of some media may |
| cause the printing surface to ripple when |
| the ink is absorbed, causing the |
| printhead to scratch the surface of the |
| printout. You should become familiar |
| with the properties of the media and do |
| the setting and limit such printing to |
| media that will not cause rippling. |
| Example: Film, etc. |
| Before you start a print job, check the |
| setting of the printhead height |
| adjustment lever. |
|
|
5.Set the thickness of the media to be added from the Media Thickness list. The following settings are available for Media Thickness.
Media Thickness | Setting |
|
|
Thick | Select this when the media set is thick, |
| or when the printhead scratches the |
| surface. |
