Automatic media roll switching
The printer has an automatic roll-switching feature that allows it to
switch to another roll when the roll in use empties. This feature
provides for longer continuous operation of the printer.
Automatic switching is possible only if the follo wing conditions are
met:
• Another drawer contains a m edia roll of the identical size and
type as the roll in use.
• The print job has not specified a particular roll (e.g., roll 1).
If both of the remaining media drawers contain the ide ntical media
size and type as the roll is in use, the printer will select th e lowest
numbered drawer first. If, for example, roll 3 empties and bot h roll
1 and roll 2 contain the same media size and type, the printer will
switch to roll 1. If roll 1 then empties, the printer will switch to roll
2.
