NOTE: Whenever you update the printer firmware, the paper-advance calibration values are reset to the factory default. See Update the printer firmware on page 137. NOTE: Colored papers, glossy canvas, and transparent materials such as translucent bond, clear film, natural tracing paper, and vellum are not suitable for paper-advance calibration. Overview of the paper advance procedure 1. On the front panel, select the icon, and then select Image quality maintenance > Paper advance calibration > Calibrate paper advance. The printer automatically calibrates the paper-advance and prints a paper advance calibration image. 2. Wait until the front panel shows the status screen, and then reprint your image. NOTE: The calibration procedure takes approximately six minutes. The front-panel display shows any errors in the process. If you are satisfied with your image, continue using this calibration for your paper type. If you see improvement in your image, continue with the next step. If you are dissatisfied with the calibration, return to the default calibration. See Return to the default calibration on page 31. 3. To fine-tune the calibration, select the icon, and then select Image quality maintenance > Paper advance calibration > Adjust paper advance. 4. Select the percentage of change from -5‰ to +5‰. To correct light banding, decrease the percentage. To correct dark banding, increase the percentage. TIP: This can also be useful for fine-tuning the total length of the print. Bear in mind that 1‰ means a change of 1 mm per meter, or 1 mil per inch. 5. Press the OK button on the front panel to save the value. 6. Wait until the front panel shows the status screen, and then reprint your image. Return to the default calibration Returning to the default calibration sets all the paper-advance calibration to zero. To return to the default paper advance-calibration value, you must reset the calibration. 1. On the front panel, select the icon, and then select Image quality maintenance > Paper advance calibration > Reset paper advance. 2. Wait until the front panel shows that the operation has been successfully completed before you press the Back button to return to the Ready screen. Download paper presets Each supported paper type has its own characteristics. The printer changes the way it prints on each different paper type. For example, some might need more ink and some might require a longer drying time. The printer requires a description of the requirements of each paper type. This description is called the "paper preset". ENWW Download paper presets 31
