• Slightly tilt the media so that it can be smoothly
inserted into the machine without catching on
anything.
(1) Pull the media out to around the front edge of
the platen.
(2) Insert the media between the platen and the
pinch rollers.
• Pull the media out of the roll so that it can be
grasped from the front of the machine.
(3) Lower the clamp lever on the rear of the
machine.
• This holds the media in place.
Pull out the roll media.

Make the roll media even, and then lower
10
the clamp lever.
• Pull out a little at several positions of the media as
needed to confirm that the amount pulled out is
essentially even, and then lower the clamp lever.
Use the media holder to hold the media in
11
place lightly.
• Position the media so that it does not protrude on
the right end beyond the rightmost pinch roller.
• When using thick media, remove the media
holder from the media before printing.
Media holder
• When loading media, align the right edge with
the platen groove. Placing media farther right
than the groove will make it rise up if it moves
obliquely, which may damage the head.
• An error message (MEDIA SET POSITION R) is
displayed if media is misaligned to the left or
right of the standard position. Reposition the
media.

Media
• When there is no media, use the pinch rollers
with the clamp changeover sliders pushed back
and the clamp raised.
If pinch rollers press against the grit roller during
transport, the roller surface may be damaged,
which may result in transport problems and
image quality problems from roller marks.
