Adjusting the feed amount
Adjusting the Feed Amount Manually
If printed images are affected by banding in different colors, adjust the amount that paper is fed.
This topic describes how to adjust the feed amount manually.
When using highly transparent media for which automatic adjustment is not supported, adjust the feed amount
manually. We recommend automatic adjustment for other types of media. For instructions on automatic
adjustment, see “Adjusting the Feed Amount Automatically”. (→P.604)
Note
• To adjust the measurement scale and ensure accuracy (so that lines in CAD drawings are printed
at exactly the right length, for example), specify the amount of paper stretching or shrinkage when
adjusting the feed amount. (→P.611)
Important
• Use paper of the same type and size for adjustment as you will use for printing.
• To apply the results of adjusting the feed amount in printing, you must rst set Feed Priority to Band
Joint. Note that if you select Automatic, the results of adjustment will only be applied in printing if you
set Print Priority in the printer driver to Image or Ofce Document. (→P.203)
Follow these steps to change the Feed Priority setting.
1. Press the Menu button to display MAIN MENU.

3. Press ▲ or ▼ to select the type of paper, and then press the ► button.

1. When using sheets, have two unused sheets A4/Letter-sized or larger ready.
When using a roll, load a roll 10 inches (254 mm) or wider.
• Loading Roll on the Roll Holder (→P.121)

• Loading Sheets in the Cassette (→P.162)

Note
• Always make sure the loaded paper matches the media type setting. Adjustment cannot be
completed correctly unless the setting value matches the loaded paper.
