Trouble isolation procedures (con’t)
Magnification adjustment mode
The vertical media movement between carriage
head passes is governed by the number of cycles of
the media transport system's forward motor. This
enables fine-tuning the amount of media vertical
movement associated with each pass of the print
heads, preventing a void between the inked areas
laid down with each print-head pass.
Control panel menu item
The vertical magnification adjustment is set
independently for each of the different media rolls
that can be used with the printer. Media type mode
selects the magnification parameter that is
appropriate to the media selected. However, you
can select and change the values for the installed
media. In this case you must verify the selected
value by trial and error, printing with your media for
optimum results.
The value entered can be any value
between
–0.50% and +0.50%
in 0.01 intervals. Set the value
and print your patterns to find the most appropriate
value for your media.
For more detailed procedures, refer to the
Operations Panel Menu
section,

Attribute
.
Note: Adjusting magnification is only
recommended to fine tune an image. A setting
change can affect other modes for different images
and different media type. True size proportions
can be compromised.
Computer interface test
Use the following procedure to check the computer
interface:
1. Turn the printer power switch
OFF
.
2. Ensure that the interface cables is securely
connected to the printer. You should also
ensure that you’re using the proper host
computer interface cable.
3. Turn the printer's power switch
ON
