Different material width and/or material thickness have an effect

To allow a compensation of this influences, the position of the
spring boxes and the contact pressure are both adjustable.
The spring boxes are located above the printhead:

Please note:
- Printing should always be carried out with the lightest contact
pressure possible for creating a satisfactory print quality. This
protects the printhead and the entire device.
- Excessive contact pressure can result in premature wearing of
the printhead.
- See also section 11.2 Printhead Exchange
and section 11.3 Adjusting the Right Pressure Value.
