alignment.
There are two modes for automatic Printhead adjustment:

Important
•
This function is not available with Tracing Paper, Translucent Matte Film, or Clear Film.

If adjustment is not possible as expected using special media, try another type of paper, or try

Note
•
Because the results of adjustment vary depending on the type of paper used for adjustment, use the same type of
paper as you will use for printing.
•
Use
Auto(Standard)
if you have switched to another type of paper or if you want the boundaries between colors to
appear as clear as possible.
•
Use
Auto(Advanced)
to fine-tune the space between nozzles or colors if you have switched the printhead or if
clearer printing is required. We recommend
Auto(Advanced)
for printing at the highest level of quality.
