Adjust Paper Feed

If horizontal lines are printed unaligned or print images are patchy, print a test pattern, and then adjust the paper feed setting.

Note

  1. Open the printer properties dialog box.

  2. Click the [Maintenance] tab.

  3. Click [Adjust Paper Feed].

  4. Click [Next >].

  5. Check that A4/Letter size paper is loaded in the paper tray.

  6. Click [Next >].

    A test pattern to adjust paper feed is printed.

    Note

    • Do not perform other operations during printing.

  7. Check the optimal adjustment values on the printed test pattern.

    Note

    • The optimal adjustment value is the number that appears on the left of the lightest gray square with straight horizontal lines on both sides. When this number is "+2", the optimal adjustment value is "+2".

    • When horizontal lines beside the lightest gray square are broken, select the optimal adjustment value by referring to the lines broken in the opposite direction. When the "+2" square is the lightest gray square and the "+6" horizontal lines are broken in the opposite direction, the optimal adjustment value is between "+3" and "+5". After adjustment, check the adjustment result.

  8. In the [Paper feed value:] box, enter the adjustment value (-14 to +14) from step 7..

  9. Click [Finish].

    Note

    • If a test pattern is not printed or the image is not clear, select the [Print a test pattern and return to this screen] check box, and then click [Next >].
