During sheet media loading, the plotter:
0Detects the front edge of the media. (Media sensor located before pinch.arm stops.)
1Grips and advances the media.
2Moves the media forwards and backwards to check whether it is still present and correctly gripped.
3Advances the media and rechecks media presence. (The loading process fails if the media sensor detects no media.)
4Actuates the bail so that the media can advance under it.
5Moves the media to a given absolute position.
6Again moves the media forwards and backwards to check for its presence. (The loading process fails if the media sensor detects no media.)
7Moves the carriage to sense the right and left edges and to check dimensions.
8Advances the media six inches.
9Checks the right edge of the media for skew (misalignment). (The loading process fails if the skew is greater than the allowed limits.)
10If the media is slightly misaligned, the plotter gives you the opportunity to realign it. After realigning, the right edge of the media is checked again for skew (misalignment). (The loading process fails if the skew is greater than the allowed limits or if the aligned media is too far away from the load line.)
11Advances the media until the media sensor detects the end of the media.
12Checks the position of the right edge of the media.
13Extrapolates the skew to the upper and lower edges of the media.
14Calculates the media dimensions: print margin, length and width.
15Moves the sheet to the printing position and resets the media.axis servo position.
