(6) Head Adjust Lever on the Thermal Mechanism Module
The TUP900 Series printers require that the head position be adjusted according to the thickness of the
paper to be used to ensure high quality printing. The head position is adjusted by changing the position
of the head adjustment lever.
See the table below to set to the optimum lever position.
• When 65 µm Paper Thickness < 100 µm: Normal Position
• When 100 µm Paper Thickness 150 µm: Position for Thick Paper
