The following table provides a general guide for setting the adjustment lever.
Experiment with different settings until you find the one that gives you the print
quality you want.
Important!
Continuous use of the wrong adjustment lever setting can drastically reduce
the print head life. Position “-” is used only when the print quality is too light.
Setting the lever to position “-” when you are using thin paper may damage the
print head.
