ADJUSTING THE PRINTING GAP
The distance between the print head and the platen can be adjusted to
accommodate different paperthicknesses. To make this adjustment, open the
front cover. The adjustment lever is located at the left side of the printer
mechanism. Pushing the adjustment lever backwards narrows the gap;
-
pulling it forwards widens the gap.
-~
There are seven positions, and you can feel the lever clicking into each
-
position. The second position from the rear (marked with "9") is the one most
I
commonly used for single sheets of paper.
Try different positions until you get the best printing results.
-
NOTE : Printing with an inappropriate gap may drastically shorten the life
of the print head.
