(5) Repeat step (4). At the pattern number that you wish to accept, keep the RELEASE but-
ton depressed (approx. 2 seconds) until the buzzer makes a long (0.5 second) sound. This
completes the acceptance of the setting.
Example: To accept the No. 4 setting, short-press the RELEASE button three times. At
the fourth time, keep the RELEASE button depressed.
Note: If you press the RELEASE button 24 or more times, it will exceed the available range
of settings. This will cause the warning buzzer (0.1 second) to sound four times, and
will delete the number of pressings of the button. Go back to step (4) to resume the
setup process.
(6) If you do not find an optimal correction pattern among the printed patterns, perform the
"Backward" or "Forward" operation as indicated in No. 1. These operations will allow
you to make printing pattern adjustments with a greater range of dot corrections. After
performing steps (1) to (3), perform the respective operations as follows:
For a "Backward" operation, keep the RELEASE button depressed (approx. 2 seconds)
until the buzzer makes a long (0.5 second) sound.
→ The printer will release the paper with a printing pattern in which the backward pass
is corrected rightward of the current printing pattern.
For a "Forward" operation, keep the RELEASE button depressed until the buzzer makes
a long (0.5 second) sound. Then, continue pressing and holding (approx. 4 seconds) the
RELEASE button until the buzzer makes a short (0.1 second) sound and another long (0.5
second) sound.
→ The printer will release the paper with a printing pattern in which the backward pass
is corrected leftward of the current printing pattern.
(7) The printer will write the setting value, which you have accepted, on the nonvolatile memory.
For confirmation, the printer will print out five patterns (which includes the setting value
that you have accepted, as well as the preceding and succeeding patterns) and an "Adjust
Completed" message.
This is followed by the release of the paper and the resetting of the printer.
Note: During the period between the time you accepted the setting value and the printer
starts to print as described above, the printer will write the setting value on the
memory. Never turn the power OFF or reset the printer during this period. Doing so
will corrupt the dot adjustment settings as well as other settings.
If you make a mistake in the settings, do not turn the power OFF in the middle of
the process. Instead, wait until the printer completes the final reset and start the dot
adjustment mode from the beginning.
