A gap between the print head and the T-shirt may cause ink
misalignment that produces grainy or blurry printouts. This occurs
due to the environmental temperature and humidity, inertial force
of the print head movements, direction of the print head movement,
and thickness and texture of the media. Ink misalignment can also
occur if the platen feed varies for some reason.
To correct this problem, perform the following
procedures from the printer's control panel as necessary:
Note: Before
performing any adjustments, make sure the nozzles are not clogged
and clean the print head, if necessary.
-
Standard
(when printouts contain vertical lines or faint text)
-
Micro
Adjust (to fine-tune adjustments after head alignment)
Note: If you are
using the medium grooved platen or the sleeve platen, or when the
print surface of the media is not flat, perform Micro Adjust before a Standard adjustment.
