Page 2: Precautions To Prevent Media Jams
Precautions to prevent media jams The precautions below are recommended to prevent the main causes of media jams: media wave and skew. Carriage If media waves, the sliding carriage may touch the wave, which may damage the Printer. Media wave At printing without winding Note that the media on the platen may bunch up when the front media edge reaches the floor. Media bunches up. Media At printing on paper-based media To avoid media wrinkle, turn off the preheater and printheater. Preheater Afterheater Printheater At setting media Set the media so that the front media edge precedes the front cover. - Page 3 Be sure to set the media perpendicular to the take-up paper tube. If the media is not perpendicular to the paper tube, the media is taken up with skew, which may cause the media wave on the platen.
