Tension Measurement Periodically Choose Periodically or Every page to have the printer automatically
monitor and adjust media tension during printing for optimal results,
Off to disable automatic tension adjustment. Periodically is
recommended in most circumstances. The printer may however be
unable to adjust tension appropriately for some media, resulting in
excessive slack or other maladjustments that cause printing problems,
in which case you should select Off. Note, however, that Off may result
in unusually large margin between pages. In addition, printing may not
stop and the inside of the printer may become stained. Observe the
following precautions:
Do not print at the end of a roll
Do not select Off for Media End Check.
Select Every page for more precise tensioning, but note that print
times will increase.
Every page
Off
Media Tension 0 to 40 Increase tension if creases appear in the media during printing. The
higher the value, the greater the tension.
Feed Speed 1 to 2 Choose a slower feed speed if thin media is creased or torn or sticks
together during printing. The lower the value, the slower the speed.
