5.3 Adjustment Procedure
5.3.1 Preparation
1) Remove the upper case unit.
2) Turn on the printer under the condition where no BJ cartridge is installed in the
carriage. (At this time, the carriage will move to position A.)
3) Disconnect the power cord.
4) Push in the carriage guide frame as indicated by arrows in Figure 5-7 and lightly
fix the frame with screws A and B.
5) Install a black BJ cartridge (procured for servicing) on the left of the carriage.

Before making the adjustment, make sure that the gap gauge is not
deformed and there are no foreign particles on it and the platen.
The platen has a structure which enables it to move up and down
vertically while maintaining a fixed distance between the head and paper
depending on the paper thickness. When the printer is turned on and
initialization starts, the LF motor rotates in the normal direction. This
operation will set the platen in the normal position of no paper loaded
condition. Do not press the platen down during adjustment.
