Installing paper holder plates
Variations in quality and use conditions can cause the edges of the paper to curl, resulting in damage to the paper by the print head surface. To prevent this, use the paper holder plates to reduce the amount of curling in the paper.
Follow the procedure below to install the paper holder plates.
A Display SIDE MARGIN in the Printer Setup menu on the LCD panel.
B Set up the margins (side margins) to 10 mm while printing.
C Load the roll paper.
D Set the paper holder plates by sliding them from both sides of the platen.
Note:
Do not use the paper holder plates for paper whose thickness is 400 µm (0.4 mm) or thicker. The paper holder plate may interfere with the print head.
E After installing the paper holder plates, make sure that they do not interfere with the paper as it is fed through the printer.
cCaution:
If a paper jams when using the paper holder plates, the plates may be deformed. When the paper holder plates are deformed, stop using the printer and do not remove the clogged paper by force. Using the printer with deformed paper plates may damage the grid roller or print heads. Contact your local Epson dealer.
Note:
If there is interference with the paper as it is fed through the printer after the paper holder plates have been installed, stop using the paper holder plates.
F If the paper holder plates are not used, return the plates to their initial positions.
