Set Printhead Pressure

Use the tables below, depending upon which printer you have, to select the initial dial

settings for your media.

Some media types require higher pressure to print well. For these media, increase both

dials one position. If the media tends to shift to the left while printing, increase the

right dial setting one position or decrease the left dial setting one position. If the media

tends to shift to the right while printing, increase the left dial setting one position or

decrease the right dial setting one position.
