12Checks the right edge of the media for skew (misalignment). (The loading process fails if the skew is greater than the allowed limits.)
13Moves the sheet to the printing position and resets the media8axis servo position.
Roll Media
When a roll8feed assembly is installed on the DesignJet 330 and 350C roll media can be used. The roll8feed assembly consists of:
DA roll8feed frame
DA spindle
DTwo media stops
DA built8in cutter
The roll8feed assembly is installed below the sheet media entry path, to allow the ease of loading for sheet media. When roll media is loaded into the plotter, it is passed around a diverter roll, which optimizes the infeed path to the plotter. Once a plot is completed, the built8in cutter is manually slid across the paper to cut the plot from the roll.

Removing Static Charge from the Media
An anti8static brush located under the entry platen prevents static charge from building up on the media. A charge can cause the media to stick to itself and jam the plotter.
Gripping the Media
When you load the media, it is gripped by the pinch8arms. There is no pinch8arm sensor on the DesignJet 230 and 250C but there is one on the DesignJet 330 and 350C.
PinchArm Sensor
The pinch8arm sensor is a switch sensor that is attached to the spittoon. It detects the position of the pinch8arm lever. Linkage, attaching the lever to a cam, causes the cam to release the switch as the pinch8arms are raised. The pinch8arm sensor is electrically connected to the main PCA.
