Adjusting the feed amount
Adjusting the Measurement Scale for Better Accuracy
To adjust the measurement scale and ensure accuracy (so that lines in CAD drawings are printed at exactly
the right length, for example), specify the amount of paper stretching or shrinkage when adjusting the feed
amount.
Note
•
If printed images are affected by banding in different colors, adjust the amount that paper is fed.
