Operating Procedures
Unloading the Paper from the Printer
The menu provides two options for unloading paper before the end of the roll is detected:
•Unload Supply and Takeup— Automatically makes a cut between the exposed paper and the unexposed paper. The printer then winds the exposed paper and trailer into the takeup cassette and rewinds the unexposed paper into the supply cassette.
NOTE: Approximately 27 inches of unexposed paper will not be rewound into the supply cassette.
•Unload Takeup and Rethread— Automatically makes a cut between the exposed paper and the unexposed paper. The printer then winds the exposed paper and trailer into the takeup cassette. Paper is then advanced as appropriate for the loading option selected. See “Selecting a Loading Option” on page
NOTE: You can determine the amount of trailer. See “Setting the Length of the Paper Trailer” on page
To choose one of the above options, see “Unloading Paper” on page
Reaching the End of Roll of Paper
When the end of the roll is detected, the remainder of the paper is wound into the takeup cassette and the message “Out of Paper...” is displayed on the OCP. See “Removing Exposed Paper from the Takeup Cassette” on page
If an error has occurred and/or a door has been opened or closed after the printer reached the end of the roll, the message “Out of Paper...” may display even though paper is still partially threaded. To completely wind the paper into the takeup cassette, either reinitialize the printer or see “Unloading the Paper from the Printer” above.
