Loading Rolls in the Printer
Be careful not to soil the printing surface of roll paper as you insert it in the slot. This may affect the
printing quality. We recommend wearing clean cloth gloves when handling rolls to protect the printing
surface.
•
If the paper is wrinkled or warped, straighten it out before loading it.
•
Load paper straight so it is not fed askew.
•
Do not release the
fl
anges until you load the holder fully in the
Roll Holder Slot
, keeping it level.
Accidentally loading the
Roll Holder
crooked may damage the printer or
Roll Holder
when paper is
advanced.
•
Be careful not to pinch your
fi
ngers between the
Roll Loading Slots
(b) and the
Roll Holder
shaft (c)
when loading rolls.
Do not force the
Roll Holder
into the printer with the right and left ends reversed. This may damage the
printer and
Roll Holder
.
