Media Does Not Feed Correctly
If media does not feed straight or roll up on the auto take-up reel correctly, try these solutions:
• Make sure your media is at least 36 inches (91.4 cm) wide for best results.
• If your media is attached to the auto take-up reel with the printable side out, try attaching with the
printable side in instead.
• If your media is thick, set the RIP software settings to use 3 passes or higher for best results.
• Perform the parallel adjustment procedures to correct the feed misalignment, especially after moving
the printer.

If media skew is detected by your product, perform the parallel adjustment procedure to ensure that the
media is fed straight into the product and onto the auto take-up reel.
Note:
Also perform the parallel adjustment procedure after you have moved the printer.
In addition to parallel adjustment, do the following to avoid media skew problems:
• Set the auto take-up reel to roll the media with the printable side in.
• Use media at least 36 inches (91.4 cm) wide.
• With thick media, set the software RIP to 3 passes or higher.
