6 Maintenance and Adjustment
6.5 Adjusting the balance and print head tension
1. Open the printer side cover.
2.
Pull out the print head
release lever as shown in
the illustration (1) and turn it
anticlockwise to a top right
position (2).
When using a variety of label
stock and ribbons, the ink may
not be evenly distributed. If there
is no printed image on one side
of the paper, or the ribbon
wrinkles, the print head pressure
must be readjusted using the TPH
spring boxes.
3. Move the TPH spring boxes
as shown in the illustration to
change the print head
pressure. The wider the
medium you are using, the
further out the TPH spring
boxes must be moved.
If there
is no quality
improvement, you need to
change the pressure on the TPH
spring boxes.
4.
Turning the screw clockwise
increases the pressure,
while turning it
anticlockwise reduces the
pressure.
