Registering optimal print conditions
to match usage
With this machine, you can register four separate print
conditions (SETUP 1–4) to suit the media used.
• For example, after printing on a different type of
media than usual, you can print on your usual
media again simply by selecting the registered
settings (1–4).
To print under conditions that you rarely use, select
"Temporary" and set the print conditions.
• Temporary settings are restored to defaults (the
state at the time of purchase) when the machine
is turned off. SETUP1 is selected on startup if the
machine is turned off with "Temporary" selected.
• You can also copy print conditions for SETUP 1–
4 to "Temporary" and adjust them as needed
before printing. Similarly, conditions set in
"Temporary" can be copied to SETUP 1–4.

Feed correction

You can correct the media feed amount by printing a
correction pattern. Correct the media feed amount to suit
the type of media you are using. Unsuitable correction
values may result in banding or other printing problems.
• Roll media at the rear of the machine will not be
taut after you perform feed correction and the
media returns to the print origin. Manually rewind
roll media before printing to keep it taut. Failure
to observe these instructions may result in image
quality problems.
Load the media.

Dot position correction

Changing the media and print head height and

type of media used. Image defects (e.g., overlaid lines or
blurred images) will result if the drop position is not
properly corrected.
