Handling Paper and Other Media |59

Using Roll Paper

You can use roll paper with a 2- or 3-inch core and a width of up to

24 inches (61 cm) for the Pro 7700, or 44 inches (112 cm) for the Pro 9700.

Manually switching rolls is a simple process.

When printing on roll paper, be sure to follow the media handling

guidelines on page 58, as well as these special guidelines for roll paper:

•When storing roll paper, keep it in its original packaging—including the

bag, end caps, and box.

•To avoid feeding excess paper, make sure the Sheet icon does not

appear on the LCD display. Press the lPaper Source button until the

or roll icon appears.

•Choose if you want the paper to be cut automatically after each

page is printed.

•Choose if you want to print a series of pages and keep them together

for cutting later on or use the Auto Take-up Reel (Pro 9700 only).

•If you’re loading heavy paper, you may need to increase the paper

suction by pressing the uPaper Feed button. For lightweight paper,

decrease the suction by pressing the dPaper Feed button.

•Do not leave roll paper loaded in the printer when it is not in use.

Whenever you load a new type of paper, you need to select the paper type on

the printer’s control panel.
