NOTE When printing without using the take-up reel, make sure the media or printing surface is not damaged or folded by the take-up reel sensor.

Define the take-up reel winding mode

The take-up reel supports two winding modes; tension winding and loose winding.

By default, use LOOSE winding mode. Always use TENSION winding mode when printing long plots or if you have problems with skew.

NOTE The HP Designjet High Speed Dryer is not usable with the take-up reel when in TENSION winding mode. Please use LOOSE mode when using the HP Designjet High Speed Dryer.

To set the winding mode:

Loose: place the take-up reel roller in the top position.
