If you press !, the control panel displays the prompt:

Advance media to takeup?

15.To advance the media, press "(Yes), otherwise press ( (No) and go to the next step.

If you press "(Yes), the media advances to the takeup spool. You can press Stop if necessary to stop the media advance at any time.

If you press ( (No), go to step 18.

16.Grasp the middle of the media web, pull straight back, route the media underneath the takeup core, and tape it to the takeup core as shown in Fig. 3-7 on page 3-19.

If necessary, you can use the arrow keys on the control panel screen to move the media forward or backward.

Note With the fixed collets securely pinned to the supply and takeup spools (see Fig. 3-4), position the media on the takeup core in the same relative position as it is wound on the supply core. For example, if the media is positioned 0.125 inches from the left end of the supply core, it should be positioned the same dis- tance from the left end of the takeup core. If neces- sary, the 3-inch collets on the takeup spool can be loosened so that the core can be moved to the right or left.

17.Press the ! key to continue.

The printer tensions the supply and takeup system, turns on the platen vacuum fans, and measures the width of the media by locating the right and left edges with the digital image sensor (camera) on the printhead carriage.
