Dot Adjustment Mode - Star Multi-Font XR-1020 User Manual

DOT ADJUSTMENT MODE
This mode is used to adjust the alignment of the print head on successive bi-
directional passes.
After a period of some months, your printer may work itself out of alignment
on left and right printing passes, showing itself most obviously in graphics

1. Turn the printer off and then turn it on again while holding down the
[=ET'EJ~=T 1 and 1 ON LINE 1 buttons. The printer will then print
something like the following:

line, the bi-directional alignment test is completed.

press
the [ ON LINE I .button. This will cycle between "HS Draft",
"Draft", "NLQ-A", "NLQ-B '0 "GRAPHICS-A" and "GRAPHICS-B".
Repeat the process for all print modes.
2. The printer will feed the paper forwards and backwards during this
operation, allowing you to view the paper for optimum alignment.
3. To adjusttheprinting, use the
[Sk6~~PT I
and
I PAPER FEED
I buttons.
The !?'?ZlF"' button will move the second pass to the left. The
I PAPER FEED
I button will move the second pass to the right.
