Use media edge guard (USE EDGE GUARD)

Use this option to activate or deactivate the media edge guards for the selected media type. The right and
left print margins are 10 mm when the media edge guards are used, and 5 mm when they are not used
(Refer to

Use the media edge guards

).

Parameters:

YES — the edge guard is used.

NO — the edge guard is not used.

Media advance mode (MEDIA ADV MODE)

Use this option to set a media advance mode for the selected media type.

Parameters:

FWD ONLY — Media is fed through the printer in the standard way.

BACK & FWD — This setting checks that the media moves freely through the media path by feeding
the media backwards and forwards before starting to print. This can be useful for media with adhesive
coating that, in combination with the heat, may stick to the platen.

NOTE

BACK & FWD can cause image banding.

Leading edge mode (LEADING EDGE)

This option allows you to define how the printer detects the position of the media when it is loaded or make
media settings on the front panel.

NOTE

This setting is not applied

when you use the take-up reel.
