CAUTION

If the paper bubbles or wrinkles while it flows over the platen surface,

the carriage might catch the edge of the paper and tear it, causing a paper jam. Make sure that the paper is smoothly collecting on the floor to avoid paper jams.

iNote

The front dancer bar should not be used when plotting to the floor.

Printing to the Floor

With careful setup and constant supervision, the printer will print markers directly onto the floor. This method is NOT intended for printing long markers or unattended printing.

1.Thread the paper on the front of the machine. It should drape off the platen, over the feed roll, and onto the floor.

2.Set an origin normally and begin plotting. Make sure that the paper piles smoothly onto the floor. If it bunches up, it may catch on the moving carriage and tear.
