One of the more frequent adjustments needed on
thermal printers is to correct paper skewing. More prevalent
on wide-bed thermal (20" display) than on the GSP-1086 series,
paper will wander or drift to the left or right.
Using a 3/32 right angle hex wrench, open paper
feed chamber and locate the paper support blocks. On the paper
support block there is a 3/32 set screw. Keeping bare hands
away from the printhead, advance the screw upward into where the
end cap of the paper roll would be. This procedure will create
drag on the end cap causing the wandering paper to pull towards
that block and straighten out the record.
