DMP 206  (260-2906)             Print Density          Faxback Doc. # 5861

ADJUSTING THE PRINT DENSITY:

The distance between the print head and the paper determines the printing
pressure, which affects the darkness and quality of the type.

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

Be sure the print-head gap is correctly set for the type of paper you are
using.

-Standard, 20-pound - position 3 (a mark shows this is the standard
 setting)

-Most 2-part copies - position 4 or 5

When you begin using 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,.  See "Running a Self Test."


NOTES:

-If the print smudges, the paper jams or feeds abnormally, or the ribbon
 comes loose or slips away from 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,
