Media Handling
The Arizona 500 printer loads and prints centered on the media. Do not attempt to left
or right justify the media during installation. Take-up cores should always be the same
width as the supply media, and the attached media should be centered on the take-up
core. The supply media is mounted from the rear of the printer, while the take-up is
located at the front just behind the IR heater door. Dancer rollers are positioned between
the vacuum platen and both the supply and take-up media mandrels to aid in correctly
tensioning the media during printing.
To ensure the highest quality printing, protect the media coating and store it at the
recommended temperature and humidity. Media should be stored in a horizontal
position and conditioned to the printer environment. Place media in the same room as
the printer for 2 to 24 hours before use.
