After setting the fabric to be plotted
Correcting error of amount of feed depending on fabric [MEDIA COMP.]
The plotter plots an image on the fabric while feeding it forward little by little.
When the thickness of the fabric changes, the optimum feed rate changes accordingly. If this
occurs, the plotter may not plot a clear image (e.g., unwanted stripes may appear on the
image). To correct the fabric feed rate according to the fabric thickness, execute this function
and make a printing test.
STEPS:
1. Select a type.
(See page 3.3). Here, select [Type.1].
2. Press the [ENTER] key.
3. Press the [ENTER] key.
4. Press the [ENTER] key.
Test printing for correction of the fabric feed rate starts.
Seven types of fabric correction patterns are plotted.
5. Enter a correction value from the output pattern.
Press the JOG keys [ ] and [ ] to enter the correction value.
If the printed pattern has a gap between lines: Select the minus
value.
If lines of the printed pattern overlap: Select the plus value.
6. Press the [ENTER] key.
7. Press the [END] key twice.
The menu returns to the LOCAL mode.
