Is the media wrinkled?
If the media is wrinkled and comes loose from the platen, colors may be uneven or printing quality may suffer.

Is the printer installed in a level and stable location?
Never install the machine in a location where it is tilted or where it may wobble or experience vibration. Also,
make sure that the print heads are not exposed to circulating air. These factors may lead to nozzle clogging
or reduced printing quality.
Is the printer being used in a location subject to severe changes in the operating environment?
Large fluctuations in temperature or humidity while printing is in progress may cause the colors to change
partway through. When you're performing printing, use the machine in a location where temperature and
humidity are stable.
The media becomes soiled when printed
Is the print head dirty?
The following may cause ink to drip on the media during printing.

Buildup of fibrous dust (lint) around the heads.

Ink transferred to the heads due to rubbing against the media.
If this happens, perform manual head cleaning. We recommend carrying out periodic print head cleaning.


Too Low Humidity.
Use this machine in the environment of 35 to 80 %RH (non condensation).
Cutting is misaligned or skewed
Is the media loaded and set up correctly?
If the media is not loaded and set up correctly, or media feed is not smooth, cutting may be adversely affected.
Make sure the media is loaded and set up correctly.

P.89, "Media Feed is Not Smooth"
Are the settings for the cutting conditions appropriate?
Misalignment or skewing may occur if the cutting speed is too fast or the blade force is too high. Try chang-
ing the cutting conditions. With media having a strong adhesive layer, the adhesive layer reattaches to itself
immediately after cutting. However, if a cutting test shows that the peeling of the media and the blade traces
on the backing paper are optimal, then the media is being cut properly. Be careful not to make the blade
force too high.

Amount of Blade Extension"
Is the length of output too long?
For printing & cutting in particular, the longer the page length (that is, the longer the distance the media is
returned after printing), the greater is the chance of misalignment occurring. It is a good idea to keep the size
of each single page to the minimum necessary.
Are you using media that exhibits large expansion and contraction?
When you're performing printing & cutting, misalignment occurs if the media expands or contracts. If this
happens, try performing printing with crop marks, then setting the base point and one or more align points
and performing cutting. This corrects for expansion and contraction of the media.
