Tape
Paper tube
Attach the media passed through the Printer to
the paper tube.
(1) Check the take-up direction, remove the slack of the
media, and then make sure that the media position
is not deviated on the supply side and the take-up
side.
(2) Attach the media to the paper tube with adhesive
tape. Tape it fi rst at the center, and then at the right
and left sides, so that the tension is uniform across
the media width and that no wrinkles are found on
the media. The taped positions are recommended to
be three or more in total.
Inner take-up:
Media is taken up with its print
surface coming inside.
Outer take-up:
Media is taken up with its print
surface coming outside.
Points to be noted on winding media
- If the media is not installed straight to the paper tube, a skew of media may occur.
- When the take-up direction is set as Inner take-up, the taken-up media's diameter increases and the media
cannot backfeed after printing. Select
[FWD ONLY]
beforehand in MEDIA BACK MODE of MEDIA REG MENU.
(When the media backfeeds in
[BACK&FWD]
mode, the motor idles and may cause a trouble.)
