To ensure that lines in CAD drawings are printed at exactly the right length, use [Adjust Length] to adjust the amount that paper is advanced. There are two options in [Adjust Length]: [AdjustmentPrint] and [Change Settings].
After a test pattern is printed, you will measure the discrepancy based on the results of printing.
No test pattern is printed. Instead, you will measure a document already printed to determine the discrepancy. Additionally, two modes are available in [AdjustmentPrint] and [Change Settings]: [A:High] or [B:Standard/ Draft]. Choose the mode that suits your particular printing application.
This setting is applied when [Highest] or [High] is selected in [Print Quality] in the printer driver.
This setting is applied when [Standard] or [Fast] is selected in [Print Quality] in the printer driver.
NOTE
- Always check the [Adj. Priority] values before using [Adjust Length].
- Use paper of the same type and size for adjustment as you will use for printing.
<Paper to Prepare>
When Using Rolls
An unused roll at least 10 inches wide
High-precision ruler
When Using Sheets
One sheet of unused paper of at least A4/Letter size

7. Press or to select [AdjustmentPrint] or [Change Settings], and then press the [OK] button. When you select [AdjustmentPrint], a test pattern is printed for you to measure the scale and calculate the discrepancy. The scale bar prints [Millimeter] in 50 mm increments and [Inch] in 1-inch increments.
NOTE
- A test pattern is printed in black when you choose [A:High] or in magenta if you choose [B:Standard/Draft].
- To cancel printing the test pattern for adjustment, hold down the [Stop] button. When "Stop printing?" is displayed, press or to select [Yes], and then press the [OK] button.
