Paper Menu

Setting Item Description, Instructions Load Paper Select either manually loaded sheets or rolls and load the paper. Eject Paper Choose this item before removing loaded paper. Chg. Paper Type (*1) Change the type of paper loaded.  (See "Changing the Type of Paper (6.2.3).") Chg. Paper Size Change the size of paper loaded.  (See "Specifying the Paper Length (6.2.4).") (See "Paper Sizes (6.1.2).") ManageRemainRoll Choose On to print a barcode at the end of a roll before you remove it. The printed barcode can be used in managing the amount of roll paper left. Choose Off if you prefer not to print the barcode.  (See "Keeping Track of the Amount of Roll Paper Left (6.2.10).") Paper Details (The type of paper is displayed here.)(*1) Head Height Adjust the Printhead height.  (See "Troubleshooting Paper Abrasion and Blurry Images (Head Height) (7.2.4).") Skew Check Lv. If you print on Japanese paper (washi) or other handmade paper that has an irregular width, choose Loose for a higher skew detection threshold, or choose Off to disable skew detection. However, if paper is loaded askew when detection is Off, note that paper jams or Platen soiling may occur. Cutting Mode Specify whether or not to cut with the standard round-bladed cutter. If you choose Automatic, the roll will be cut automatically using the Cutter Unit, depending on the printer driver settings. If you choose Manual, the paper will not be cut after printing. Instead, a line will be printed at the cut position. Choose Eject if you prefer not to have documents dropped immediately after printing, as when waiting for ink to dry. (See "Specifying the Cutting Method for Rolls (6.2.12).") Cut Speed Choose the cutting speed. The preset selection represents the optimal cutting speed for the type of paper. We recommend keeping the preset cutting speed. If you use adhesive paper, choosing Slow helps prevent adhesive from sticking to the cutter and keeps the cutter sharp. Trim Edge First If a roll is loaded, the end of the paper will be cut. CutDustReduct. If you choose On, a line will be printed at the cut position when paper cutting is selected. This option reduces the amount of debris given off after cutting. It also helps prevent adhesive from sticking to the cutter and keeps the cutter sharp if you use adhesive paper.  (See "Reducing Dust from Cutting Rolls (6.2.14).") VacuumStrngth Specify the level of suction that holds paper against the Platen.  (See "Adjusting the Vacuum Strength (VacuumStrngth) (7.3.8).") Scan Wait Time Select Entire area to apply the ink drying time after each scan until the document is fully printed. If you select Leading edge, the drying time is entered per each scan until about 110–140 mm (4.3–5.5 in) from the leading edge of the paper, and colors may be uneven in the boundary between the areas with and without a drying time. (The applicable length varies depending on the Print Quality setting.) Roll DryingTime Specify the time to wait for the ink to dry for each sheet. NearEnd RollMrgn Specify the minimum margin at the leading edge of roll paper to ensure better printing quality at the leading edge. Note that if you choose 3mm, it may lower the printing quality at the leading edge and affect feeding accuracy. The printed surface may be scratched, and ink may adhere to the leading edge. It may also cause the Platen to become soiled. NearEnd Sht Mrgn Specify a margin at the leading edge of sheets to ensure better printing quality at the leading edge. Note that if you choose 3mm, it may lower the printing quality at the leading edge and affect feeding accuracy. The printed surface may be scratched, and ink may adhere to the leading edge. Bordless Margin Adjust the margin during borderless printing. Choose Automatic to have the printer automatically detect the paper width and configure the margin settings for borderless printing. If margins are mistakenly created when Automatic is selected, choose Fixed. In this case, the paper width is not detected automatically, and the document is printed without borders, using the margin settings required by the printer. Manual Feed Select the Paper Feed Slot to use when printing on sheets. Normally, select Top. When printing on heavyweight paper such as POP Board, select Front. Return Defaults Choose OK to restore Paper Details to the default values. Paper Details Print the paper settings as specified in Paper Details. Keep Paper Type Select On when printing on a particular type of paper regularly.  (See "Changing the Type of Paper (6.2.3).") *1: For information on the types of paper the printer supports, refer to the Paper Reference Guide. (See Paper Reference Guide.) Types of paper in the printer driver and related software (as well as on the Control Panel ) are updated when you install the printer driver from the User Software CD-ROM or if you update paper information with the Media Configuration Tool.  (See "Updating paper information (6.1.4).")
