The carriage moves to a higher position when
the mechanism is set to the right.

change the position of the left head up/down
mechanism.
TIP
š We recommend wearing glove during this operation
to keep your hands clean.
Next, while raising the front of the carriage,
change the position of the right head up/
down mechanism.
TIP
š The carriage position is 0.5 mm higher when both
the right and left head up/down mechanisms are set
to the horizontal position.
Generally, Normal is used for glossy and matte vinyl
chloride media, and High is used for tarpaulin and
FF media. If the media thickness exceeds 0.5 mm,
High should be used regardless of the media type.
Use also High even with thin media if it is severely
wrinkled or contains irregularities that may touch
the print head.
After changing the position of the head up/
down mechanism, push lightly the carriage
downward with your hands.
Note
‹ This operation is required to make sure the height of
print heads has been changed correctly.
