Aligning the print head manually
Because there is a distance between the print head
and paper, the misalignment may occur by the
humidity or temperature or moving the print
head bidirectionally. In this case, try UNI-D first,
and then BI-D 2-COLOR. If you want to perform a
highly accurate adjustment, try BI-D ALL.

ALIGNMENT, and then press the button.

Press the / button to select MANUAL,
and then press the button.
C
Press the / button to select UNI-D,
and then press the button to print the
pattern.

Check the pattern and select the set number
that has the smallest gaps.

number, and then press the button.
