Adjusting for paper thickness
Paper comes in different weights, normally expressed as gsm (grams per square
meter) or lbs (pounds). Some types of forms have multiple pages that make
them quite thick. Use the following procedure to change the gap between the
print head and the platen and adjust for paper thickness.
❏
Move the adjustment lever to one of its nine settings. Position 1 is most
suitable for single-sheet paper.
