Precautions When
Handling Media
If the following points are not observed when
handling media, small amounts of dust and lint may
stick to the media surface and cause ink drops in the
print results or cause the nozzles to clog.
Do not place exposed media directly on the floor.
Media should be rewound and inserted in its original
packaging for storage.
Do not carry media with the media surface pressed
against clothing.
Handle media in its individual packaging until just
before loading the media in the printer.
Notes on Loading Media
Caution:
❏
The heater may be hot; observe all necessary
precautions. Failure to observe the necessary
precautions could result in burns.
❏
Because the media is heavy, it should not be
carried by one person. We recommend using
a lifter for media that weighs over 40 kg.
❏
Be careful not to trap your hands or fingers
when opening or closing the front cover.
Failure to observe this precaution could result
in injury.
❏
Do not rub your hands along the edges of the
media. The edges of the media are sharp and
can cause injury.
Load the media just before printing.
The pressure rollers may crease media left in the
printer. The media may also become wavy or curled,
causing jams or resulting in the media coming into
contact with the print head.
Do not load media if the right and left edges are
uneven.
If media is loaded and the right and left edges of the
roll are uneven, media feeding problems may cause
the media to move around during printing. Either
rewind to align the edges or use a roll without any issues.
