Explanation
You can select the media type that is most similar to the paper
you are using.
You can adjust the distance between the print head and paper.
STANDARD: Normally, select STANDARD.
NARROW: Use this when printing on thin paper.
WIDE or WIDER: Select this if you find that printed images are
smeared.
You can print the paper thickness detection pattern and select
the appropriate number from the printed pattern.
You can set the paper feed amount of the printable area. The
range is -0.70 to 0.70%. If the paper feed value is too large,
white horizontal micro-banding may appear. If the paper feed
value is too small, dark horizontal micro-banding may appear.
You can set the ink drying time for each print head pass. The
range is 0 to 10 seconds. Depending on the ink density or paper
type, the ink does not dry soon. In this case, set the drying time
longer.
You can set the suction pressure used to feed the printed paper.
When using a cloth or thin paper or when wrinkles appear in
the paper during printing, select HIGH or EXTRA HIGH.
You can select whether to perform this operation to reduce the
paper skew or not.
