Load a roll into the printer (manually)

The manual loading process should be used in the following cases:

●The substrate is unusually thin or unusually thick.

●The substrate has ragged edges.

●The substrate tends to curl at the edges.

●The printing side of the substrate faces outwards.

In other cases, the automatic loading process is recommended: see Load a roll into the printer (automatically) on page 27.

To start this procedure, you need to have a roll loaded on the spindle. See Load a roll onto the spindle on page 23.

The normal minimum substrate width is 23 inches (584 mm). To load substrates down to a minimum width of 10 inches (254 mm), go to the front panel and select the icon, then select Substrate handling options > Enable narrow substrate. With this option, print quality is not guaranteed.

TIP: To load a roll of textile material see The loading accessory on page 50.

1.At the printer's front panel, select the icon, then select Substrate load > Manual load.

Handle the substrate

This step is optional: you can alternatively begin at step 2.

The front panel may prompt you to remove the edge holders from the platen, if the printer believes they are present (it may be wrong: it has no sensor to detect them).

2.Lift the substrate-adjustment lever as far up as it will go.
