Problem Solution
Printing is vertically
misaligned (jagged).
Use the printer’s V-ALMNT function to check
the vertical print alignment. If necessary, adjust
the print alignment. See the section Using the
Diagnostic Functions in Chapter 5.
The top margin is
wrong.
The top margin is the sum of the top-of-form
setting, the software-specified top margin, and
the printer’s TOP-MRG setting. Proceed as
follows:
• Make sure that the top-of-form setting is
correct. The factory default is 25.4 mm (1
inch). See the section Changing Top-of
Form in Chapter 5.
• Check the software-specified top margin.
Refer to your software documentation.
• Check the printer’s TOP-MRG setting. See
the section MENU1 and MENU2 Items
and Options in Chapter 5.
Lines are double
spaced instead of
single spaced.
Check the line spacing setting in your software.
Change the CR-CODE setting in the printer
setup mode to CR ONLY. See the section
MENU1 and MENU2 Items and Options in
Chapter 5.
The printer
overprints on the
same line.
Change the CR-CODE setting in the printer
setup mode to CR & LF. See the section
MENU1 and MENU2 Items and Options in
Chapter 5.
The next print line
starts where the
previous line ended
instead of at the left
margin.
Change the LF-CODE setting in the printer
setup mode to LF & CR. See the section
MENU1 and MENU2 Items and Options in
Chapter 5.
