English term or phrase: float
Non so bene come tradurre "float" in questo contesto.

Note: If the substrate still does not feed smoothly through the printer,
especially if you are working with a very thin substrate, float the dancer
as described in the following section.

Italian translation:spostare lievemente
Explanation:
dancer = rullo ballerino, in macchina da stampa
Secondo quanto descritto "nella sezione a seguito" citata nel testo, credo che l'operatore debba spostare lievemente il rullo ballerino in modo da facilitarne la presa del supporto.
Non ho trovato un termine esatto per float in questo caso, quindi lo renderei con un termine generico e comprensibile, secondo la descrizione fornita nel testo.

Explanation:
proposta. Ho trovato che in edilizia float signfica "frattazzare, spianare, lisciare, piallettare". Se il dancer è il ballerino con funzione di compattare il supporto di stampa, magari potrebbe anche andare ;-)

ciao
