Curl Correction for Each Paper Drawer
This mode enables you to adjust the curl correction level of each paper source.
Curl correction level is constantly adjusted to suit the characteristics of a paper. However, if the paper curl is not corrected properly, you can manually adjust the curl correction level to accommodate the environment and the characteristics of the paper, such as moisture in the paper.
You can change the level of curl correction to suit the characteristics of the paper.
Paper curl is negated by adjusting the paper in the opposite direction that is curled. Make test copies or prints on the paper that you have adjusted and check the level of curl correction.
IMPORTANT |
If you adjust the level of curl correction in [Paper Type Management Settings] in [Preferences], make sure to reset the value in this mode to '0'. (See "Overview of This Function.") Note that this feature may affect paper feeding. Since increasing the value to a great extent may cause paper jams, adjusting the values in small increments is recommended. |
NOTE |
Depending on the environment where the paper is stored, the condition of the paper, such as moisture in the paper, may differ. If the condition of the paper is different than usual, you can adjust the curl correction level of each paper source individually for a better result. |
