The printer is factory-adjusted for full-size media width. When using
media less than full width, it is recommended that you adjust the
position of the pressure arm so it becomes centered with the media.
Thereby, an even pressure across the media is obtained.
A poorly adjusted pressure arm may be detected by a weaker printout
on either side of the media path.
To adjust the pressure arm, proceed as follows:
• Loosen the straight-slot screw that holds the pressure arm. Move
the arm inwards or outwards until the arrow on the tip of the arm
becomes centered with the media.
While moving the arm, push at the part where the screw
is situated, not at the tip. If the arm is hard to move, lift
the printhead and pull the printhead bracket free from the
magnet in the arm.
• After having centred the arm, lock it by tightening the screw.
