Printing Alignment Adjustment
This function adjusts the alignment of bi-directional printing.
In bidirectional printing, characters that are printed from left to right tend to misalign with
characters printed from right to left as shown below:
The vertical alignment function corrects the vertical character displacement that some-
times occurs with bidirectional printing and results in a poor appearance, especially in
printing tables. This function is defined as one of the power-on initiated test functions. If
you notice misaligned printing, use this function to check and correct the vertical print
alignment.
1 To enter the Printing Alignment Adjustment Function:
a) Make sure that the tractors are loaded with continuous feed paper and that the pa-
per select lever is set backward.
b) Turn the printer off.
c) Turn the printer back on while simultaneously pressing the “READY/CLEAR” +
“LOAD/FF” keys.
2 Adjust the vertical print alignment at High Speed.
After Paper is loaded, the format of adjustment for Bi-directional Alignment of High
Speed is printed and the paper will automatically advance for viewing after the print-
ing is complete. The message of ”Bi-Dir Align Adjust1 = xx” is printed.
An adjustment value is chosen using the NEXT and PREVIOUS keys. The adjust-
ment range is "01-15", and the center value is "08". By pressing SETUP/EXIT Key,
the adjustment value for High Speed is determined and the adjustment value for High
Speed is saved.
NOTE: Do not press any keys alone or in combination, except for pressing the
READY and LOAD keys simultaneously, when turning the printer on, to avoid
initiating unexpected tests not permitted for the user.
