Description
This machine prints by the bidirectional mode (in which the print heads perform printing during both their
outbound pass and return pass). This printing method is called “Bidirectional Printing.” This method offers
the advantage of being able to shorten output times, but subtle misalignment occurs during the outbound
and return passes. The procedure to correct this and eliminate misalignment is “Bidirectional Correction." This
misalignment varies according to the print-head height and the thickness of the media, so we recommend
performing correction to match the media you're using.
Correcting for Misalignment in Bidirectional Printing More Precisely
When further correction is required, such as when adjustment made using [SIMPLE SETTING] does not enhance
printing, use [DETAIL SETTING] to make corrections.
For information on operations, refer to P. 44, "Performing the Initial Adjustment (Correcting for Misalignment
in Bidirectional Printing More Precisely)"
