Parameter Explanation
- Use Auto is in most situations. If Media Size Check is not On when Auto is
set, the appropriate tension is not applied because the media width
1 to 6
cannot be detected.
If Media Size Check is Off, set Take-up Tension to Manual and then set
the recommended value for the media width.
If Take-up Tension is set to Auto and creases appear during printing or
black bands (dark stripes) appear in the print results, set Take-up Tension
to Manual. When Manual is set, we recommend setting Take-up Tension
to Lv3.
0 to 40 The manufacturer default set values will change as follows depending on
the Tension Measurement setting.
Periodically/Every Page: Lv28
OFF:Lv39
We recommend setting Media Tension in the setting menu to comply
with the width of the loaded media. The value depends on the Tension
Measurement setting. See the following for more information.

Explanation
Assign the media setting bank a name up to 22 half-size characters long.
Using distinctive names makes it easier to select banks for use.
Use this option if banding (horizontal banding, lines, or strips of uneven
color) persists after head cleaning and head alignment have been
performed.
The user visually inspects print results and enters the adjustment value by
hand. U
Adjustment varies with the media being used. Load the media for which
feed adjustment is required under the same conditions as the actual print
job.
Choose the platen gap (the distance between the print head and the
media).
The default setting for the SC-F7100 Series is 2.0. The default setting for the
SC-F7000 Series is 1.5. The default setting is recommended in most
circumstances. Raise the setting by 1 if printout is scratched or smudged.
Select 2.5 only if print results are still smudged when 2.0 is selected.
Choosing a larger gap than required may result in ink stains inside the
printer, reduced print quality, or shorter product life.
Select Head Alignment to realign the print head when print results seem
grainy or out of focus.
Visually inspect print results and enter an appropriate correction by hand.
