If the correction value is not appropriate, stripes may appear on the printed image, thus resulting in a poor
printing.
• When you have changed the media type, check the pattern and perform adjustment depending on the
status.
• When you have changed the temperature of the heaters, make sure that the [CONSTANT] lamp lights
up and that the preset temperature is reached, and then start the correction.
• When printing with a take-up device, set the media first and then perform media correction.
