Loading Films - AGFA Drystar 5301 User Manual

Loading films

This section describes how to load the printer with appropriate films.
The printer can be loaded with 8x10", 10x12", 11x14", 14x14" and 14x17"
films.
The printer will inform you in several ways when a film tray is empty:
• an audible signal,
• the status indicator LED is blinking (red color),
• the display screen shows a message informing you that the input tray is
empty.
The film loading procedure is identical for both input trays. In the examples
below, we will assume that the lower input tray is to be loaded.

Note: If you want to change the film format, the tray
configuration must be modified.
Note: The procedure is slightly different, depending on the fact
wether the printer is printing/calculating or in the ready state.
WARNING:
Never load an additional film sheet or film sheets to a film pack
in use. Only load a new film pack when the current input tray is
empty.
