Stylus Pro 7600/9600 PSB.2002.09.003 10/7/02 3. Cut Pressure: The default is *100%. The Cut Pressure configuration setting is useful to insure good cuts with supported media and to allow cutting of thinner media without snagging or tearing it. (Range 0% - 150%). For thinner media try a value less then 100%. A dull or damaged cutter blade will cause improper cutting as well as cutting media that is not supported for the built in automatic cutter. Media that is NOT supported by the built in automatic cutter includes: Smooth Fine Art - Textured Fine Art - Canvas - Enhanced Matte Posterboard - Somerset Velvet Fine Art Paper Adhesive Vinyl - Backlight Film - Heavy Weight Polyester Banner - DuPont Semi Gloss Proofing and third party medias that are similar to those mentioned or paper media greater then 10mil thickness. Damage to the cutter blade will occur by using the built in Auto Cutter to cut these medias. Epson has a manual cutter option that can cut these medias. 4. Cut Method: The Default is *3 Step. The Cut Method is useful for cutting thinner media to prevent snagging or tearing of the media during cutting. For thinner media try the Custom Configuration of 4 Step. (Range 3 Step or 4 Step). 5. Paper Feed Adjustment: The default is *0.00%. The Paper Feed Adjustment is very useful in removing Horizontal Banding using the standard Epson driver or a 3Rd party RIP. The horizontal banding will appear as thin light or dark lines that repeat at the same distance. Make sure a nozzle check is performed prior to making this adjustment as missing or deflected nozzles can also produce prints with horizontal banding. The banding this adjustment corrects is caused by the media not being feed far enough (Dark Thin Lines) or the media is being feed to far (Light Thin Lines). The distance between the horizontal banding depends on the print resolution for example the approximate distance between the lines for various resolutions are: 360dpi = 5mm, 720dpi = 3mm, 1440dpi = 1.8mm. To remove Dark Thin Lines the paper needs to feed further, try a value in the + direction. To remove Light Thin Lines the paper needs to feed less, try a value in the - direction. (Range -1.00% - +1.00%). Printer Control Panel Paper Configuration Page 5.
