Note on test printing
• When using leaf media, set a media of more than
210mm put horizontally. If a media with narrow
width is set, printing will only be conducted to
midway.
• If use by setting the media to Narrow roll holder,
rewind the media by hand before printing so that it
is not loose. When the roll media has not been
rewound tightly, it may cause image quality to
deteriorate.
• When test print, be sure to close all the covers
