Step 13 :
•
Before lowering the media hold lever, hold the media on the front side and turn the
media feeding scroller slightly backward, making sure that there is an even tension
across the full media width.
•
Lower the media hold lever and close the cover.
•
The head moves automatically and will search for the left and right edge of the media
being loaded.
Important :
If the roll media has not been fed straight or incorrectly, messages such
as “Stuck Media error” or “Take out paper” are shown on the display. If
this is the case, reload the media following the instructions mentioned
above.
Step 14 :
In the MENU “Function” of your printer, set media cut to OFF.
Step 15 :
Feed the media forward by pressing the SHIFT &
ADVANCE keys simultaneously until the media
reaches the cardboard core on the take-up
system.
Step 16 :
Fix the media on the cardboard core by means of self-adhesive tape strips in the middle
and on the left and right side.
Note :
First attach the middle of the media on the cardboard core to avoid
slipping of the media.
Step 17 :
Feed the media slightly forward (using SHIFT & ADVANCE) and wind it up on the take-up
system.
Now you are ready to start printing.
