Drying Time
per Print Head
Pass
Adds a waiting time when the print head reaches the end of every pass.
Set this value using the slider or text box. To improve the print quality by
using slow ink absorption on the media, set a higher value.
The drying time per print head pass can be set from 0 to 5 seconds, in
0.1 second increments.
Note:
If you use this feature, the printing time will be longer.
Paper Feed
Adjustment
Controls the paper feeding value, in 0.01% increments. If the paper
feeding value is too large, white horizontal micro banding may appear. If
the paper feeding value is too small, dark horizontal micro banding may
appear.
Paper
Thickness
This value automatically appears according to the Media Type setting. If
you use non-Epson media, modify this value for your media. Refer to the
paper specifications, or print “Thickness Pattern” to find out the paper
thickness.
Platen Gap
Platen Gap is the height from the media loaded in the printer to the print
head. By adjusting this parameter, you may produce better print quality.
This is set automatically according to the Paper Thickness setting
specified.
Note:
Setting Platen Gap to
Narrow
may produce better print quality, but make
sure the media does not wrinkle or touch the print head; otherwise,
printed data or the print head surface may be damaged. Use
Wider
or
Wide
in such case.
