Perform paper advance calibration

The printer is calibrated to advance correctly when printing all the papers that appear on the front

panel. When you select the type of loaded paper, the printer adjusts the rate at which it advances the

paper while printing. However, to fine-tune the image quality of your print, you may need to calibrate

the rate at which the paper advances. See

Troubleshoot print-quality issues on page 147

to determine

whether paper-advance calibration is the solution for your issue.

Accurate paper advance controls proper placement of dots on the paper. If the paper is not advanced

correctly, light or dark bands appear in the printed image and the grain in the image might increase.

The printer starts paper advance calibration automatically if accurate paper advance is particularly

important for the loaded paper type. This can happen after the paper is loaded or after printhead

replacement.
