BIDIRECTIONAL TEST/ADJUSTMENT MODE
This mode is used to adjust the alignment of the print head on successive bidirectional passes. After a period of some months, your printer may work itself out of alignment on left and right printing passes. This will be most evident in NLQ printing. This mode will probably be used very rarely.
1.Turn the printer off and then turn it on again while holding down the ( sE~r=&CT) and ( ON LINE > buttons. The printer will then print
something like the following:
f#YPI<’ADJU~TMFNT SETTING LtL
CURRENT | 0 | : | ////////////////////////////////////////////////// |
2.The printer will feed the paper forwards and backwards during this operation, allowing you to view the paper for optimum alignment.
3.To adjust the printing, use the ( stpf&c’ )and (PAPER FEED) buttons. TheC SEpf&CT) button will move the second pass to the left. The
(PAPER FEED) button will move the second pass to the right.
4.When the two passes are aligned with each other to form one continuous line, the bidirectional alignment test is completed.
5.To save the corrected value and to exit from this mode, press the (PITCH
| button. |
