• Be sure to perform feed correction each time
before printing. The media feed amount may vary,
depending on the remaining amount of the roll
media.
• If use by setting the media to Narrow roll holder,
rewind the roll media by hand and set without
slack. There may not be accurate to correct the
feed amount.
• On completion of [MEDIA COMP.] during use of a
roll media, the media returns to the printing origin.
When a roll media is set on the narrow roll holder,
Slack will occur in the roll media of the back side of
this machine.
Before printing, take up the slack in the roll media
by hand; a loose roll media can result in an inferior
image quality.
• When printing with a take-up device, set the media
first and then perform media correction.
• If print without using the take-up device, please
make the correction from sending media to reach
the floor. There is a possibility that the fed amount
can not be adjusted normally.
• Two bands are printed in the correction pattern.
• Make adjustment so that an even color density is
obtained in the boundary between the two bands.
