Tip
In case of winding, the leading edge of the media must be aligned
and taped straight on the take-up roll core for best winding and
printing quality. Tape first the center and then the sides.
For more information, see
page 123.
When you wind without a tension bar, position the media guides
against the media for best winding quality.
For more information, see
page 124.
When you have taped your print to the take-up roll but the roll
winder has not wound up your print, move the media towards the
printer to start the winder. Move the part of the print that is hang-
ing just above the ground in front of the lower sensor towards the
sensor. The printer then sees the media and will start winding au-
tomatically.
Always calibrate a new media type in order to optimize the print
quality. Calibrate media of the same type with different media
sizes for each size.

When you run out of media while printing you will get a media re-
quest message. When you want to finish your jobs you can also
continue printing on a larger width media roll. Load the larger
width media roll and select it, the printer will then continue print-
ing on the larger media width.
NOTE
Note that you will always have to load the larger width
media roll, even if it has already been loaded in the
printer. In that case, the printer will only recognize the
larger width and start printing on it when it is reloaded.
Perform media calibration from the empty leading edge of the me-
dia roll. So start calibration after you made a cut or when you start
with a new roll. Do not perform media calibration when there is al-
ready a print on the roll.

Take note that moist sensitive media will deform when lying on
the print platen for some time.
Be aware of uncured ink on media or the printer. Do not remove
uncured prints via the winder or drawer, but only via the top cov-
er. Follow the referred procedure carefully.
