Quick Start Guide
Using the second feed roll
The takeup roll can also be used as a feed roll. If you use the takeup roll as a
feed roll, you cannot use the takeup system. If you want to use the takeup roll as
a feed roll, set the printer to ROLL2 by pressing Setup Menu/Paper Options
Menu/Supply Type/Roll2. Follow the loading instructions in the previous
section using the bottom roll.
Media presence
Caution: When using the ROLL2 option, the media has a tendency to curl inward
under the bottom roller. This could block the media sensor and prevent the reed
roller from feeding media. Make sure you keep the media turned outward, away
from the media sensor.
Using the takeup roll
The takeup roll allows unattended printing by automatically winding printed media
onto a core. In this mode, the automatic cutter is disabled. When using this
option, be sure that the media sensor on the printer's right leg is not blocked.
Depending on the ambient humidity, temperature, and amount of ink coverage,
you may want to turn on the dryer and/or set a dry time as described in the
Reference Guide on the System CD-ROM.
