Adjusting the Measurement Scale for Better Accuracy
To adjust the measurement scale and ensure accuracy (so that lines in CAD drawings are printed at exactly
the right length, for example), specify the amount of paper stretching or shrinkage when adjusting the feed
amount.
Note
•
If printed images are affected by banding in different colors, adjust the amount that paper is fed.
(→P.686)
Important
•
Use paper of the same type and size for adjustment as you will use for printing.
•
To apply the results of adjusting the measurement scale for better accuracy in printing, you must rst set
Feed Priority to Print Length. Note that if you select Automatic, the results of adjustment will only be
applied in printing if you set Print Priority in the printer driver to Line Drawing/Text. (→P.249)
