Note
•Steps 5 and 6 are not required, if a barcode has been printed on the roll and you have activated
automatic detection of the remaining roll paper . The paper type and amount of paper left are
automatically detected.
•Keeping a roll in the printer for a long time without printing on it may leave a depression on the leading
edge.
When printing quality is most important, we recommend setting T rimEdge Reload to On so that the
paper edge is automatically cut before printing.
•For details on supported sizes and types of the roll that can be loaded, see Paper Sizes (→P .1 12) or
the Paper Reference Guide . ( → P .107)
•Clean the platen after you have used up a roll. ( → P .670)
•When a roll has been advanced, do not pull it out by force. This will prevent the paper from being
advanced.
If you accidentally pull out the paper , hold the Stop/Eject button to enable feeding again.
