Description
Depending on the media, media may wrinkle or come loose from the platen during printing, increasing the
chance of contact with the print heads. When you are using such media, adjust [HEAD HEIGHT] to "HIGH."
Printing quality when [HEAD HEIGHT] is set to "HIGH" may be coarser or otherwise lower than when set to
"LOW." If this happens, refer to the pages indicated below.
