ADJUSTING THE PRINT HEAD

The distance between the print head and the platen must be adjusted to accommodate papers of different thicknesses. To make this adjustment, move the adjustment lever, which is under the printer cover and immediately in front of the release lever (Figure 2-l 1). Pulling the adjustment lever towards you will widen the gap; pushing it away from you will narrow the

gap.
