Installation

Media Selection 

Both roll-type and fanfold media can be used with the printer. To use fanfold 

media, you may need to remove the access plate on the back of the printer as 

described under Loading Media, Fanfold Type.

Caution
The media width should be equal to, or just 

narrower than, the print head. Using media that 

does not cover the print head will allow the 

platen roller to tread on it and wear it out. The 

media edge will also wear a groove in the platen 

roller affecting print quality.
