      To ensure that lines in CAD drawings are printed at exactly the right length, use [Adjust Length] to adjust the amount that paper is advanced.
      There are two options in [Adjust Length] : [AdjustmentPrint] and [Change Settings].

      • AdjustmentPrint
      After a test pattern is printed, you will measure the discrepancy based on the results of printing.
      • Change Settings
      No test pattern is printed. Instead, you will measure a document already printed to determine the discrepancy.

      Additionally, two modes are available in both [AdjustmentPrint] and [Change Settings] : [A:High] or [B:Standard/Draft]. Choose the mode that suits your particular printing application.

      • A:High
      This setting is applied when [Highest quality] or [High] is selected in [Print Quality] in the printer driver.
      • B:Standard/Draft
      This setting is applied when [Standard] or [Fast] is selected in [Print Quality] in the printer driver.
      NOTE
      • Always check the [Adj. Priority] values before using [Adjust Length].
      • Use paper of the same type and size for adjustment as you will use for printing.

      <Paper to Prepare>
      When Using Rolls:
      • An unused roll at least 10 inches wide
      • High-precision ruler
      When Using Sheets:

      Perform adjustment as follows.

      1.Load the paper.

      NOTE
      • A test pattern is printed in black when you choose [A:High] or in magenta if you choose [B:Standard/Draft].
