Solving Media-Handling Problems

The Front Panel indicates that media is misaligned or incorrectly positioned

Roll media

„ The roll may be loaded the wrong way. The paper should load over the

 

roll toward you.

 

„ Check that the paper is correctly loaded onto the spindle.

 

„ The paper may be loaded at an angle. The right-hand edge must be

 

aligned with the blue line on the Print Platen.

 

With 24 inch printers, ensure that the paper is wrapped

 

tightly on the roll. This is a very important step to remember

 

because if this is not done, the media may be loaded at an

 

angle, causing the media to be rejected.

 

„ Check that the Right Spindle Holder (rewinder included) is properly

For a graphic of a properly installed Rewinder, see Right Spindle Holder

„If hand-cut media is used, the edges may not form a right-angle or they may be rough. If possible, hand-cut media should not be used. Only purchased sheet media should be used in the Printer.

„If you have problems with paper jams, check that the Overdrive is not obstructed by bits of paper or using the Turn Drive Roller Service Utility. See 1. Turn Drive Roller on page 3-58.
