(1) Check for skew, dent or roll media state. If the roll media
is not well finished, replace it with a good one.
(2) Check whether the media is set straight to the printer. If it
is set obliquely, raise the pressure roller with the pressure
control knob to shift the media to the right or left until
it becomes straight. When using the take-up reel unit,
adjust the paper tube position on the takeup side and
reinstall the end of the media to be wound around the
paper tube so that the media is wound straight to the
paper tube. (
