2.7 Loading the Media
This section describes how to load the media in the printer. This printer
accepts label rolls, tag rolls, and fanfold paper stocks. Please use
TOSHIBA TEC CORPORATION approved media.
NOTES:
1. Please perform a media sensor calibration whenever you change the
media type.
2. The size of the media which can be loaded inside the printer is as
follows:
Outer roll diameter: Max. 127mm (5”)
Inner core diameter: 25.4 (1”) mm or 38.1 mm (1.5”)
When the outer roll diameter exceeds 127 mm or the inner core
diameter exceeds 38.1 mm, an optional External Media Stand is
required. For details, refer to the
Installation Manual for the B-
FV904-PH-QM-R External Media Stand
.
At factory shipment, the core holder size is set for 1.5” on the Media
Roll Holders. If you want to use 1” core media, detach the core
holders by loosening the thumb screws, reverse the core holders then
re-attach them with the thumb screws to the Media Roll Holders as
shown below.
3. Media rolls can be wound inside or wound outside. (See the diagram
below.) Both types of media roll should be loaded so that the print
side faces up.
WARNING!
1. Do not touch any moving
parts. To reduce the risk
of fingers, jewellery,
clothing, etc. being drawn
into the mechanism, be
sure to load the media
only
once the printer has
completely stopped
moving.
2. To avoid injury, be careful
not to trap your fingers
while opening or closing
the Top Cover.
CAUTION!
Be careful not to touch the
Print Head Elements when
opening the Top Cover. Doing
this may cause damage to
some of the dots through
static discharge or other print
quality problems.
