Adjusting Print Head Position Automatically
Print Head Alignment corrects the installation positions of the print head and improves misalignment of
colors and lines.
This printer supports two head alignment methods: automatic head alignment and manual head alignment.
Normally, the printer is set for automatic head alignment, but if the printing results are not satisfactory, such
as if the borders are not aligned, perform
manual head alignment .
The procedure for performing automatic Print Head Alignment is as follows:
Important

progress.
