Adjusting the Transfer Tension
This procedure positions the image correctly on the card. Refer to the Preparing to adjust the
Print Offset, Transfer TOF and Transfer EOF procedure for proper sequence.
Step Procedure
1 Choose Menu, Print Test Image and YMC Color Bars to print a test card.
2 Record the Transfer Tension value on the test card last printed.
3 Examine the test card.
4 a. Select MENU, Setup Printer and Transfer Tension.
Caution: Reducing the Transfer Tension too much may cause slack in
the Film take-up, which is evidenced by a wrinkling noise and extra Film take-up
during the release phase.
b. Increase the Transfer Tension if this occurs. (Note: There may be a
snapping or clunking sound during Film take-up if it is too tight. Errors may
occur in either case.)
5 Press the Select button to save the value.
6 Print a test card as described in Step 1.
7 Repeat Steps 1 to 6 until the Film is applied smoothly to the card without
wrinkles or creases.
