You have to set emphasis printing by using the menus to set Impact Mode to Hi Copy as

Do not use emphasis printing if performing horizontal tab character
printing on thin paper as the paper may become damaged.
NOTE

use emphasis printing.

> The print may become blurred if high density characters and graphics are
printed using a new ribbon.
> In emphasis mode, ensure that the paper is flat to avoid possible printing
errors.
