Setting the print head gap
The printer features automatic print head gap adjustment to the thickness of the pa-
per used. In setup mode, you can enter a correction value to modify the head gap
that is normally determined automatically. This correction is useful for modifying
the appearance of the type face. This correction will modify the appearance of the
font. It may be necessary to obtain optimum printing results on certain paper types.
The AGA (automatic gap adjustment) function must be set to “always” or “once”.
For more detailed information, refer to the User guide on the Online CD-ROM.
