  4. Select the setting.
    Auto The suction force is automatically adjusted to the optimal level for the width of the loaded media.
    Off Select this setting when you do not want to suction the media.
    10 to 100% When the media is flimsy and cannot move smoothly, decreasing this value (reducing the suction force) may correct the problem.
