18. PRINT HEAD PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT LEVER
The B-EX4/B-EX6 Series has a print head pressure adjustment mechanism.
Adjusting the balance of the print head pressure with this mechanism, the pressure against the ribbon is made
transversely equal, as the result, ribbon wrinkles are improved. This is effective especially when narrow
ribbons are used.

(1) B-EX4T2 series (Ribbon is left-aligned)
In the case of the B-EX4T2 series, the ribbon and the media are left-aligned. Therefore, the print head pressure
against the ribbon tends to become uneven. If the ribbon wrinkles, basically adjust the left side (printer frame side)
to High and the right side to Low to make the print head pressure balance equal.
