Print head alignment

To prevent deterioration of print quality caused
by misalignment of the print head, align the print
head before you start printing your data.
You can perform print head alignment using:
❏ printer driver
❏ EPSON LFP Remote Panel
❏ printer's control panel
Usually perform print head alignment using the
printer driver. If the print quality does not
improve, use EPSON LFP Remote Panel. If you do
not have a computer or software, use the printer's
control panel.
Note:
Align the print head for the paper width loaded in the
printer. Use the Epson special media (except plain
paper) which paper width is the same as the paper that
you actually use for printing.
