Parameter Explanation
0 to 10 minutes Set a longer time if you are concerned that the scratch resistance of the
print start area is poor.
We recommend setting a longer time, especially if you are using thick
media.
On Set this to On if the colors of the adjacent prints do not match when
using tiling, or if the colors do not match immediately after printing
Off
starts when printing long jobs.
When you select On, the print head is warmed up before printing starts
to prevent color differences. As a result, it may take longer to start printing.

In most situations, use the values set for each media type as they are. If

may result in ink stains inside the printer, reduced print quality, or
shorter product life.
Lv1 to Lv4 In most situations, use the values set for each Media Type as they are.
Increase tension if creases appear in the media during printing. The
higher the value, the greater the tension.
Lv0 to Lv10 Set the strength of the suction by the platen on the media. The higher
the value, the greater the suction.
In most situations, use the values set for each Media Type as they are. If
the media is wavy on the platen, increase the set value.
If graininess or out-of-focus characteristics are detected in printing
results obtained using thin or soft media or if the media is not fed
normally, reduce the set value.
On Normally, leave this Off.
