Supplementary explanation

When the [RESTART] and [FEED] keys are pressed at the same time, the display shows the system mode menu.

If the [RESTART] or [FEED] key is held down for 0.5 seconds or more when a fine adjustment value is being set, the printer enters the repeat mode, in which the key is entered repeatedly.

A changed fine adjustment value is stored in memory by pressing the [PAUSE] key.

The printer is controlled by the sum of the fine adjustment parameter programmed on the printer and the fine adjustment command from the PC. However, the maximum values for each fine adjustment are as follows:

Feed fine adjustment

±50.0 mm

Strip position fine adjustment

±50.0 mm

Back feed fine adjustment

±9.9 mm

Print density fine adjustment

±10 step

X-coordinate fine adjustment

±99.5 mm

Ribbon motor drive voltage fine adjustment (Rewind)

-15 to +0 step

Ribbon motor drive voltage fine adjustment (Back tension)

-15 to +0 step

The X-coordinate fine adjustment is performed to finely adjust the X-coordinate of the drawing in the left or right direction. Adjust the X-coordinate in the effective print range. (After the value reaches the coordinate “0”, the value remains unchanged even if a subsequent fine adjustment is performed in the negative direction.)

The X-coordinate fine adjustment is not effective for the self-test results printout (maintenance counter, various parameters, and automatic self-test) and the test print.

The print density fine adjustment value is +0 step at the time of shipment from the factory.

The ribbon rewind/back tension motors drive voltage fine adjustment values are the sum of the fine adjustment by the command (from the PC) and the fine adjustment in the system mode (by key operation). The maximum fine adjustment values are -15 for both the ribbon rewind motor and the ribbon back tension motor.

The print density fine adjustment value is the sum of the fine adjustment by command (from the PC) and the fine adjustment in the system mode (by key operation). The respective max.
