1.3.24 Margin Adjustment in Borderless Printing (Maintenance mode 66)
< Function >
This procedure adjusts the left, right and bottom margins for borderless printing. Print out a
margin check pattern, measure each margin, and enter the measured values.
If the head/carriage unit or main PCB is replaced or the engine and its related components are
disassembled, you need to make the adjustment given below.
< Operating Procedure >
(1) On your PC, when using A4-sized paper, save a copy of "mediaadj_A4_BHS13.prn" to a
USB flash memory or SD card. When using letter-sized paper, save a copy of
"mediaadj_LTR_BHS13.prn."
(2) Use Section 1.3.21 "Printout of PRN/JPEG Files in Memory Card (Maintenance mode 61)"
to print test patterns.
Tip: The test patterns can also be printed by opening "Filedrgs" on your PC and dragging
& dropping the above adjustment file onto the Brother Maintenance USB Printer driver
icon.
(3) Measure the left, right, and bottom margins on the printed pattern.
If each margin is within the range of 2.9 to 3.1 mm, no adjustment is required.
(4) Press the 6 key two times in the initial stage of the maintenance mode.
Wait for the "SELECT66?" to appear and then press the Mono Start key.
The "MEDIA SENSOR ADJ" appears on the LCD.
(5) Press the * key to display the "LEFT 1 :30."
Enter the measured upper left margin value "A" multiplied by 10. If the measured left
margin is 2.8 mm, for example, press the 2, 8, and SET keys.
The "RIGHT1 :10" appears on the LCD.
(6) Enter the measured upper right margin value "B" multiplied by 10. If the measured right
margin is 3.0 mm, for example, press the 3, 0, and SET keys.
The "LEFT 2 :30" appears on the LCD.
(7) Enter the measured lower left margin value "C" multiplied by 10. If the measured left
margin is 2.9 mm, for example, press the 2, 9, and SET key
The "RIGHT 2 :10" appears on the LCD.
(8) Enter the measured lower right margin value "D" multiplied by 10. If the measured right
margin is 3.1 mm, for example, press the 3, 1, and SET keys.
The machine saves the left and right margin values and returns to the initial stage of the
maintenance mode.
(9) Press the 6 key two times in the initial stage of the maintenance mode.
Wait for the "SELECT66?" to appear and then press the Mono Start key.
The "MEDIA SENSOR ADJ" appears on the LCD.
(10) Press the # key to display the "BOTTOM :30."
Enter the measured bottom margin value "E" multiplied by 10. If the measured bottom
margin is 3.5 mm, for example, press the 3, 5, and SET key
s.
The machine saves the bottom margin value and returns to the initial stage of the
maintenance mode.
(11) Go back to step (2) and print the margin check pattern again. If each margin is within the
range of 2.9 to 3.1 mm, the adjustment is completed.
