Using Various Media

Chapter 1
Basic Use

The table below lists the possible settings for the cut 
sheet type.

Roll media starts to feed as soon as the type of 
media is selected.

Important

z

Make sure to choose the correct media type setting. If 
the configured media type is incorrect, perform the 

“Media You Can Use”

 operation. (

→ 

P.2-2

)

z

As soon as each sheet prints, remove it from the output stacker.

z

Manually remove paper from the ejection guide and 
output stacker after cutting such media as trimmed 
paper and pre-cut paper.

z

If you are replacing the roll media, cut off a suitable 
amount of paper for the paper type to align the edge of 
the paper. Depending on the paper type, the paper 
may not be ejected but remain in the printer. If this 
happens, remove the paper manually.

Note

z

If a message appears in the display after loading roll 
paper, the operation panel lamp flashes. 

z

The factory default Media Type setting is 

Plain Paper

. Or, 

when the release lever is opened and closed, the media 
type setting is reset automatically to Plain Paper.

z

The media size is detected automatically, and so no 
settings are required.

z

If you are replacing the roll media, cut off a suitable 
amount of paper for the paper type to align the edge of 
the paper. If the roll media remaining amount detection 
function is turned ON, the barcode, which is at the edge 
of the roll paper, will be cut off after it has been read.
