Releasing a Pinch Roller Follow these steps to raise a single pinch roller if the edge of the media must be located under the roller, or if the roller is unusable:

◆Raise the pinch rollers using the release lever.

◆Install the release block from the front of the printer into the desired pinch roller assembly.

◆One of the block’s two indents should rest on the pivot. Push the block back to the second indent to engage the back of the rail as shown below.

◆Lower the rollers to the desired tension.

◆The block can be stored in the disengaged position by raising the pinch rollers, then pulling the block forward so that its first indent rests in the pivot.
