3.Pull out the substrate from the front of the printer.

4.Remove the empty spindle from the printer, pulling out the end on the right side of the printer first. Do not insert your fingers into the spindle supports during the removal process.

5.Lower the substrate-adjustment lever.

6.If the front panel shows a warning message, press the OK button to clear it.

NOTE: If the end of the roll has disappeared inside the printer, use the Move substrate button on the front panel to move it forward.

Use the take-up reel

The take-up reel must be enabled and operated from the front panel. When the take-up reel is enabled, the “Take-up reel enabled” message appears on the Substrate tab on the front panel. If the take-up reel is not enabled and you would like to enable it, select the icon and then select Take-up reel >

Enable take-up reel.

Follow these guidelines when taping rolls to the take-up reel spindle core:

Make sure that the substrate is straight when it is attached to the spindle core. Otherwise it skews as it winds onto the core.

The spindle core on the take-up reel must be the same width as the substrate that you are using.

Check that neither side of the spindle core has end caps, and make sure the spindle core is pushed firmly into both spindle guides.

NOTE: If you want to load the take-up reel during printing, familiarize yourself with the procedural steps. Loading the take-up reel during printing requires you to complete the procedure while the printer is feeding and printing substrate. Loading the take-up reel during printing saves approximately 1 m (3 feet) of substrate.
