Handling and storing media
Before you are able to cut a job, it is necessary to know which media to use.
3.6.1
Handling media
When you handle media, please pay attention to the following:
Use recommended media in an appropriate environment. Following are the appropriate
temperature and humidity ranges for cutting.
Recommended working environment
Rate of change
Do not use creased, damaged, torn, curled, or wrapped media.
Temperature changes will influence the size of the used media. Before using sheet media,
place the sheet in the working environment to have it match to the temperature of the
working area.
Cutting before the media was able to accommodate to the cutting environment may cause
media jams due to slippage, tracking problems or creases. This also adversely affects the
quality of cutting.
Do not throw away the box or wrapping bag for storing media.
3.6.2
Precautions on storing media
When storing media, pay attention to the following:
Do not store media in high temperatures, high humidity, or direct sunlight.
Store sheet media in the original bag after unpacking.
Unused roll media must be removed from the scroller, rewound tightly, and stored in the
original wrapping bag and the box.
Do not moisten media.
