• For the leaf media, use only a withy one.
When using the leaf media, the take-up device is
invalid. If the set media is not withy, the printing
face will not become flat and the media will jam.
• Set media long enough to cover tension roller.
Otherwise, the media may be caught between
tension roller and the fabric roller and get jammed.
