Use Middle Pinch Rollers When Pulling Back or Feeding Media

Set the setting that causes the middle pinch rollers to go up automatically during pullback printing or printing and cutting to "DISABLE." Holding down media that is not straight or comes loose is effective in preventing misalignment during printing and cutting.

"AUTO MIDDLE PINCH" is a function that causes the middle pinch rollers to automatically rise when media is pulled back, performs overprinting and cutting while they are raised. However, if you are performing lengthy printing or using non-resilient media, the media will be skewed or will come loose, which may have an effect on the output quality.

If you set "AUTO MIDDLE PINCH" to DISABLE, the middle pinch rollers will press down on the media while moving, thus preventing skewing or coming loose. However, because the middle pinch rollers are pressed against the printed surface, it is easier for the rollers to leave a trace on the printed surface. Before pulling back the media, make sure to dry it thoroughly.
