Correcting Misalignment for Printing or Cutting
Perform following corrections / adjustments to correct misalignment for the media you're using.
1. <Bidirectional Adjustment>
Bidirectional adjustment corrects subtle misalignment occurs in the Bi-Direction printing.
This misalignment varies according to the head height and thickness of the media, so perform this
adjustment to match the media you're using. This setting in XC-540 also serves to correct the shifting of
Printing and Cutting Position. Under this case, this setting needs to be confirmed and adjusted.
Refer to the User's Manual [Correcting for Misalignment in Bidirectional Printing].
2. <Feed Calibration>
Feed distance of media slightly changes by media thickness and heater temperature. In this case, print
banding tends to be noticeable. It needs to be adjusted to the media and heater, repeating print test and
adjustment. However, the print result may be improper when media is fed backward after adjustment.
When it needs a margin for next print after adjustment, set it 40 mm or more.
Refer to the User's Manual [Performing Feed Correction to Alleviate Horizontal Bands and the Like].
3. <Print / Cut Position Adjustment>
Perform this adjustment when alignment of print and cut is not satisfactory under continuous
operation of print and cut. This adjustment needs to be optimized to your media, since cutting
position changes due to the media thickness and head height.
Refer to the User's Manual [Correcting Misalignment of the Printing and Cutting Positions During Printing
Followed Immediately by Cutting].
4. <Crop-Cut Adjustment>
Perform this adjustment when alignment of print and cut using the Crop Mark function is not
satisfactory .
Refer to the User's Manual [Correcting Misalignment for Printing and Cutting When Using Crop Marks].
