Roll Media
Roll media may contain labels of a fixed length with gaps in between or it may be formed as one continuous length with no gaps (see Continuous Media in the Glossary). Both types of roll media mount inside the printer in the same manner. To load roll media, refer to Figure 2.5 and/or 2.6 and do the following:
1.Move the Media Guide and Media Supply Guide as far away from the printer frame as possible.
2.Place the media roll on the Media Supply Hanger.
3.Push the Media Supply Guide inward until it is just touching the outer side of the Media Supply Roll. (The Guide must not cause pressure or excessive drag on the Media Supply Roll.)
4.Thread the media through the printhead as shown in the illustrations.
5.Adjust the Media Guide until it just touches the outer edge of the media without causing it to buckle.
6.Close the printhead by moving the lever located on the upper printhead assembly to the CLOSED position.
