Changing the Paper Width
The printer is initially set to print on 80 mm {3.15"} width paper, but you can change the printer to print on 58
mm {2.28"} width paper by installing the optional roll paper guide.
Follow the steps below to install the roll paper guide.
1
Open the roll paper cover.
2
Align 3 projections on the paper guide with the holes in the roll paper holder, and
push it until it clicks into place.
Because some parts of the print head and the autocutter contact the platen and they may
become worn out in 58 mm printing, once you change the paper width from 80 mm to 58 mm,
you cannot change it back to 80 mm.
When changing the paper width, be sure to change the setting for the paper width with the
customized value. To set the customized value, see
"Software Settings" on page 60
.
