Aligning the Print Head Position
Print head alignment corrects the installation positions of the print head and improves deviated colors
and lines.
This printer supports two head alignment methods: automatic head alignment and manual head
alignment. Normally, the printer is set for automatic head alignment.
If the printing results of automatic print head alignment are not satisfactory, see "
Alignment," and perform manual head alignment. To change to the manual head alignment, click
Custom Settings on the Maintenance tab, and then check the Align heads manually check box.
