2. Check that the paper is now flat.

We recommend printing curl-corrected paper one sheet at a time.

• Depending on the media type, the paper may be smudged or may not be fed properly even if it is not

curled inward. In such cases, follow the procedure described below to curl the paper outward within 0.1

inch / 3 mm (B) in height before printing. This may improve the print result.

We recommend printing paper that has been curled outward one sheet at a time.

Adjust the setting to prevent paper abrasion.

Adjusting the setting to prevent paper abrasion will widen the clearance between the print head and the loaded

paper. If you notice abrasion even with the media type set correctly to match the loaded paper, set the machine

to prevent paper abrasion by using the operation panel or the computer.
