Use only the distance between the center symbols
or the average of the distances between the left,
center, and right symbols.
After the adjustment pattern is printing, the length
of the pattern will be displayed in the control
panel. Press the

measured value and press the

Value
Selected
Choose an adjustment between -0.70 and +0.70%
Selecting too small a value causes dark bands;
adjust the amount upward. Similarly, choosing too
large a value causes white bands; adjust the
amount downward.
Value
Paper Suction
-4 to 0
It is important to choose the appropriate amount
of suction for the paper used in order to maintain
the correct distance between the paper and the
print head. Choosing too high a value for thin or
soft paper will increase the distance between the
paper and the print head, causing print quality to
decline or preventing the paper feeding correctly.
If this happens, lower the paper suction. The
suction power is weakened when the parameter is
lowered.
