Facing the right side of the plotter, grasp the empty supply roll
and shift it to your right. This depresses the spring-loaded hub at
the far end of the plotter and frees the closer end of the paper
roll bar from the drive hub.
Lift the bar away from the plotter and lay it on the floor. Remove
the empty supply paper roll.
