Adjusting The Head Gap - Oki ML280eco User Manual

A
DJUSTING THE
The head gap is the distance between the print head and the platen
roller. When you use envelopes or multi-part forms you will need to
have a larger gap than when using plain paper. Use the
recommended head gap to ensure the best print quality and easy
paper feed.
Incorrect setting of the print head gap can cause print head
damage or ribbon jams. To avoid these problems set the print
head gap for the type of stationery being used.
To adjust the print head gap, move the coloured lever located to the
left of the ribbon cartridge (a), to the correct position for the type of
stationery being used......
