Step 9: Loading roll media
•
Pull some media off the roll, feed it into the media feed
gap and between the pressure rollers and the drive
roller.
•
Pull out the media at the front side and make sure at
least 0.5 meters hangs out in front of the printer.
Caution:
•
When you load roll media from the back, be careful not to hurt
yourself by touching the pressure roll system.
Step 10: Checking the position of roll media
Turn the scroller by hand and wind up several turns of roll media. As you wind up the
media, check the relative positions of the drive roller on the right and the right hand edge
of the roll media. It is normal if with the roll media pulled tight, the portion that is being
wound and the portion that was unwound are straight and the right hand side edge of the
media is on the guide line. If this is not the case, adjust the position of the roll media in
accordance with step 9.
Guide line (holes) can be seen
Guide line (holes) is hidden
Step 11: Fine-tuning the roll media position
If the guide line (holes) can be seen, the roll media must be moved to the right.
If the guide line (holes) is hidden, the roll media must be moved to the left.
•
Turn the scroller receiver screw counter-
clockwise to move the roll media to the right
(when standing in front of the printer).
