Chapter 6 What to Do If

6-5 Media Wrinkles or Shrinks, or Feed Is Unstable

A variety of problems can occur if the media feed is

not smooth. This can cause such problems as poor

printing quality, contact with the media by the print

heads, misaligned positioning, or media jams. Take

action as follows.

Media Wrinkles or Shrinks

Is the media loaded and set up straight and se-

curely?

Feed is not smooth when the media is not straight or is tensioned
unevenly on the left and right. Reload the media.

Are the media clamps mounted?

When you're performing printing, be sure to attach the media
clamps.

Media Feed Is Not Straight

Is the media loaded and set up straight and se-

curely?

Feed is not smooth when the media is not straight or is tensioned
unevenly on the left and right. Reload the media.

Media Feed Is Not Smooth

Do the media or the shafts strike some other ob-

ject?

Make sure the media and the shafts do not touch anything
else. This may affect output, even when feed appears to be
smooth.

Is the media too thick?

Media that is too thick may not only cause unstable feed, but
may scrape the print heads, resulting in malfunction. Never use
such media.

Are the grit rollers dirty?

Check to make sure the grit rollers are free of buildup of foreign
material such as media scraps.
