Description
Adjusts the strength of Color Density. Use a value in the range of -50% to
+50%. Drag the slider with your mouse to the right direction (+) to deepen
the color of your printout or left direction (-) to lighten its color. You can
also type a number (-50 to +50) in the box next to the slider.
Use this function when you print on paper other than Epson special
media.
Set the scroll bar to the 0 position when you print on Epson special media.
Note:
Deepening of the color of printout may not be possible, depending on
the printing mode.
Adds a waiting time when the print head reaches the end of every pass.
Set this value using the slider or text box. To improve the print quality by
using slow ink absorption on the media, set a higher value.
The drying time per print head pass can be set from 0 to 5 seconds, in
0.1 second increments.
Note:
If you use this feature, the printing time will be longer.
Controls the paper feeding value, in 0.01% increments. If the paper
feeding value is too large, white horizontal micro banding may appear. If
the paper feeding value is too small, dark horizontal micro banding may
appear.
This value automatically appears according to the media for the Media
Type setting. If you use non-Epson media, modify this value for your media
is recommended. Refer to the paper specifications, or print "Thickness
Pattern" to find out the paper thickness.
Platen Gap is the height from the media loaded in the printer to the print
head. By adjusting this parameter, you may produce better print quality.
This is set automatically according to the Paper Thickness setting
specified.
Note:
Setting Platen Gap to Narrow may produce better print quality, but make
sure the media does not wrinkle or touch the print head; otherwise,
printed data or the print head surface may be damaged. Use Wider or
Wide in such case.
