SECTION 2 INSTALLING THE PRINTER

4.Loosen the knobs on the side guides. Adjust the side guides to within 1/32-inch of the media. Then tighten the knobs.

5.Adjust the back guide so that the media is raised approximately 1/2-inch and rests on the curve of the back guide. When running 10 inch or longer or heavy media you may have to set the back guide so that it just touches the back of the media.

6.Feed a piece of media through the printer and adjust the two exit guides so that they ride on the media. To prevent smearing, make sure that the exit guides do not track over any printed information
