How to use the head up/down mechanism

The printer automatically adjusts the head height to the best
height when the printer is turned on or when media is set. To
adjust the head height according to the media to be used,
select MEDIA REG MENU on the operation panel and adjust
the head height.
Note
- Adjust the head height so that the head does not contact
with the media. Friction of the head may cause poor fi ring of
the head and degrade the print quality. On the other hand,
excessive head height from the media will also degrade the
print quality. Use the printer with the head height that is
automatically adjusted by the printer.
