Measuring the Curl / Decurling
Measuring the curl
Place a sheet of curled paper on a flat surface. Apply the scale to the edges of the paper to measure the curls at the 4 edges.
Count the maximum measured value as the curl.

[A]: Measure the horizontal curl (to the direction of the arrow)
[B]: Measure the vertical curl (to the direction of the arrow)
[C]: Paper feed direction
Acceptable curl
A curl within ±10 mm throughout the sheet is acceptable.
Decurling
Place the sheet on a flat surface with the curl facing downward.
Holding an edge of the paper, curl it in the opposite direction to decurl it.


Decurl the paper until the curl is within the acceptable range.
If double-feeding occurs: The curl is better if it is downward.
If paper misfeeds occur: The curl is better if it is upward.
Decurl the other edge in the same way.
