Manual Band Adjustment (Manual Band Adj)

If printed images are affected by banding in different colors, adjust the amount that paper is fed.
Use Manual Band Adj for transparent media or other paper for which adjustment with Auto Band Adj. is not possible.
We recommend automatic adjustment for other types of paper. (See "Auto Band Adjustment (Auto Band Adj.).")
Always check the Feed Priority setting before using Manual Band Adj. (See "Selecting a Feed Amount Adjustment
Method (Feed Priority).")
