Adjusting vertical alignment

After you have been using your printer for some time,
you may find that when you print graphics, the printed
dots are slightly out of line with each other. For exam-
ple, what you intend to look like this:
11111
may come out like this:
1,1,1,1,1, or like this: ,1,1,1,1,1
11111 11111
This is due to the mechanical parts of the printer work-
ing slightly out of alignment. It happens very rarely and
you may never meet this problem. However, if it does
occur, you can cure it as follows:
●Turn the printer off and make sure that it is loaded
~th paper (cut sheet or fanfold).
●Hold down both the [m] and the [-] keys.
QTurn on the printer. The printer will beep once.
●After asecond or two, release both keys.
The printer will then print something like
* * * DOT JiJ)JIJs TMENT SETTING * * *
LQ –3 :111111111111111111111
111111111111111111111
(The number before the vertical bars may not be “-3”).
After printing the bars, the printer will feed the paper so
that you can see the print-out clearly.
Each vertical bar is actually two bars. You can use the
[=] key to move the bottom row of bars to the left, and
the [=] key to move them to the right.
