Media can become deformed by the
heat from the Pre-Heater or the Platen
Heater if it sets on the printer too long
in the "Ready to Print" mode.
This can also cause blurry printing and
shorten the life of the print head.
Raise the pressure rollers and pull about 12"
of media through manually just before
printing.
Lowering the heater temperatures might
help, but this can negatively affect the image
quality.
