Operation Manual

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 Explanation

the print head unidirectionally.
BI-D 2-COLOR Use Cyan and Vivid Magenta ink color
to align the print head bidirectionally.
Bi-D ALL Use all ink colors to align the print
head bidirectionally.
