Plot is wrong length

7

If you suspect that a plot is the wrong length, plot a job of a known length and measure it.

Possible causes: Paper is not moving freely Scaling is incorrectly applied

Vertical emulation is incorrectly applied

Solutions:

1.Check the media feed path. Ensure that the paper is installed correctly and that the paper feed is not obstructed.

2.Adjust or reset the scaling setting as described in Chapter 4, Operation.

3.Determine if your data requires vertical emulation and adjust the vertical resolution setting appropriately. See “Emulation” in Chapter 4, Page 4-10.

Paper is wrinkling or tearing along one edge

Possible causes: Paper feed is misaligned Paper is incorrectly installed Lid is not securely closed Latch pins need adjustment

Solutions:

1.Ensure that paper is correctly aligned while feeding. If using fan- fold paper, you may wish to leave the paper in the box.

2.Check that the paper is installed correctly (see “Media Installation” in Chapter 3, Installation) and the plotter lid is securely closed. The top of the lid should be flush with the top of the side panels.
