Selecting the Paper Type (Roll)

When changing the type of paper after the paper has been advanced, specify the type of paper as follows.
Important
• For best printing results, the printer fine-tunes the feed amount for each type of paper. Be sure to select
the type of paper to use correctly before printing.
• Because the printer fine-tunes the feed amount for each type of paper, the margins and the size of printed
images may vary depending on the type of paper used. If margins and the size of images are not as you
expected, adjust the paper feed amount and Printhead height.
(See "Adjusting the Feed Amount.")
(See "Troubleshooting Paper Abrasion and Blurry Images (Head Height).")
Note
• After you load the roll, the printer automatically shows a menu for selection of the paper type on the
Display Screen, unless a barcode has been printed on the roll or you have activated automatic monitoring
of the remaining roll paper. Select the type of paper, and then press the OK button.
If no barcode has been printed on the roll and you have activated automatic monitoring of the remaining
roll paper, specify the roll length after the paper type. (See "Specifying the Paper Length (Roll).")
