Solution
If printed vertical lines are warped or colors are out of alignment, execute Head Posi. Adj. to adjust the Printhead alignment.
Normally, execute Auto(Standard) or Auto(Advanced).
However, when printing on special paper, or if printing is not improved after Auto(Advanced), try Manual Adjustment.
Manual adjustment requires you to examine the printed test pattern and enter an adjustment value.
NOTE
- Manual Adjustment may be unavailable in some cases, even if it is displayed in the menu.
If so, execute Auto(Advanced) once.
- Always make sure the loaded paper matches the type of paper specified on the printer. Adjustment cannot be completed correctly unless the loaded paper matches the settings.
- We recommend using the type of paper you use most often for adjustment.
