DMP-204  (260-2883)              Print Head           Faxback Doc. # 4252

Adjusting the Print-Head Gap:

The size of the gap between the print head and the paper determines the
printing pressure, which affects the darkness and quality of the type. The
print-head gap also determines how smoothly the paper feeds.

Move the head position lever to correctly set the print-head gap for the
type of paper you are using.

Standard, 20-lb.: Position 3 (This is the standard setting.)

Most 2-part Copies: Position 5 or 6

CAUTION: If you do not correctly set the gap between the print head and
         the paper, you may damage the print head.

When you use a different thickness of paper, run a self test and adjust the
print head gap until the print quality is good and the paper feeds normally.

Notes:

* If the print smudges, the paper jams or feeds abnormally, or the ribbon
  loosens or comes off the print head during printing, select a higher
  setting.
* If the print is too light or characters or parts of characters are
  missing, select a lower setting.
