7. Adjust the Media Thickness Knob
The media thickness knob sets the distance between the Print Heads and the material. Use it to compensate for different material thicknesses and to increase clarity of the printing.
Estimate the thickness of the material to be run.
NOTE: All material in a run must be the same thickness.
For 1/16" (1.5mm) thick material, start half way. For 1/8" (3mm) thick material, start with setting all the way at the Thick side (clockwise).

IMPORTANT! Adjusting the media thickness knob too far counterclockwise may cause smearing or jamming.
