1.3.17 Updating of Paper Feeding Correction Values (Maintenance mode 58)
< Function >
To match the paper feeding amount with the head nozzle pitch, the machine optimizes
the rotations of the paper feed roller and paper ejection roller, using the correction
values stored in the EEPROM on the main PCB.
If you replace the head/carriage unit or main PCB or remove the engine-related parts,
you need to update the paper feeding correction values according to the procedure
given below.
< Operating Procedure >
Note: Before carrying out maintenance mode 58, update the firmware to the latest
version.
For printout of test patterns
(1) On your PC, when using A4-sized paper, save copies of "pfadj1_A4_BHB17.prn" to
"pfadj6_A4_BHB17.prn" and when using letter-sized paper, save copies of
"pfadj1_LTR_BHB17.prn" to "pfadj6_LTR_BHB17.prn” to a USB flash memory.
(2) Use “1.3.19 Printout of PRN/JPEG Files in USB Flash Memory (Maintenance
