Using Roll Paper

The printer comes with one 2-inch and one 3-inch spindle, so you can have two types of roll paper available for printing at all times (with manual switching). Switching from one paper roll to another is a simple process.

High-tension spindles (available in both 2-inch and 3-inch diameters) are recommended options for printing on certain media such as EPSON Synthetic Paper, Smooth Fine Art Paper, and Textured Fine Art Paper; the higher tension keeps the paper from unrolling during use.

Other options for using roll paper include the Automatic Take-up Reel System (see your online Reference Guide for operating instructions) and the Manual Media Cutting System (for use with heavy media).

Loading Paper onto the Spindle

To load roll paper onto a spindle, follow these steps:

1.Slide the removable paper stop off the left end of the spindle.

2.Position the roll so the paper unwinds as shown:

3.Slide the roll onto the spindle so it fits securely against the paper stop.

4.Slide the removable paper stop back onto the spindle and insert it into the end of the roll.
