7. PRINTER OPERATION
■Page alignment when “Precise print mode” is selected
In the page alignment when “Precise print mode” is selected, first, the loaded media is fed to find the first print start position that passes the sensor. Next, the media is fed until the print start position is aligned with the Print Head position. Therefore, compared to the “Paper saving mode”, which will be described later, the amount of media ejected is large. However, with “Precise print mode” selected, feed accuracy will increase because the media is fed while the sensor threshold value is being monitored all the time.
