2. LOADING ROLL MEDIA
Step 1:
Open the cover, check that the head is in a position where it will not touch the media
keeper blade and put the hold lever up.
Step 2: Selecting the media
•
Press the [Media] key to select between cut-sheet or
roll media.
•
By pressing the key you will see the LED alternate
between the two choices. Now select roll.
Note :
When making the wrong choice by selecting cut-sheet when a roll is
loaded, the printer will pull off the maximum cut-sheet length, searching
the back edge. Finally the printer will report a media search error.
Step 3:
Take your roll of media.
Step 4:
Remove the movable flange from the scroller by
pulling it off.
Step 5: Load the media over the scroller
Turn the roll media as shown in the diagram and pass it over the scroller until the media
tube fits firmly over the fixed flange. Replace the movable flange on the scroller and fit it
firmly into the media tube.
