6.6 Ribbon shield settings
The use of different ribbon materials may cause wrinkling of the ribbon, which in turn affects the print result
as illustrated by the examples in (a) and (b). To change the print quality, you can adjust the ribbon shield screws.
If your print result looks like the example in (a), you need to turn ribbon shield screw clockwise.
If your print result looks like the example in (b), you need to turn ribbon shield screw counterclockwise.
(a)
(b)
To keep track of the change in print quality, you should adjust the screws by half a turn at a time.
Print a test page. If there is no improvement in the print result, turn the screw by another half turn.
Do not turn the adjustment screw more than two full turns(360
