2.6 Feed Correction

Changing the media may affect the feed amount due to various factors, including the weight and thickness of
the media and whether the take-up unit is used. Correct the drop position to suit the type of media used.
Image defects (e.g., dark or light streaks) will result if the feed is not properly corrected.
• Is media loaded?
• For roll media, is the rear roll media free of sagging?
• When using the take-up unit, was the media mounted on the paper core of the take-up unit?
