Making Corrections for Printing
When performing test printing for feed correction, load the material correctly (see "Setup for Printing -- Loading the
Material"). If the material is not loaded correctly, an accurate test pattern may not be output.
When you use the program to set a correction value for the amount of feed, the programs setting takes priority. The
setting made with the control panel for the machine takes effect only in cases where the program does not perform
correction of the amount of feed.
This corrects for errors in the amount of feed of the grit rollers due the type of material.
Be sure to make this setting when you have replaced the material with a different type.
Correcting the amount of feed improves the dot-positioning accuracy in the feed direction, which can help enhance image quality.
