The Take-Up Module (Optional) And The Roll Wind Module (Optional); Configure The Roll-To-Roll Mode - Canon ColorWave 3800 Operation Manual

The take-up module (optional) and the Roll Wind module (optional)

Introduction
The ColorWave 3800 is compatible with the optional take-up module and Roll Wind module.
The take-up module and the Roll Wind module allow the user to print in roll-to-roll mode. The
module rolls up your print jobs automatically on a core without cutting. This can be handy when
you want to transport your prints or want to automatically clean-cut or trim your prints, laminate
or mount an adhesive back to the prints.
Before you can use the take-up module, you must first set the printer into the roll-to-roll mode.
You can enable the roll-to-roll mode in WebTools Express and on the user panel, see
the roll-to-roll mode in WebTools Express on page 138
page 31.
By default, the printer is delivered in roll-to-sheet mode. In this mode, the machine cuts and
delivers each print to the selected delivery destination.

Configure the roll-to-roll mode

Introduction
When you want to use the take-up unit, your printer has to be in the roll-to-roll mode. When you
enable the roll-to-roll mode, the printer will not cut between pages. You can also configure the
roll-to-roll mode in WebTools Express.

• When the roll-to-roll mode is enabled, each print job is delivered to the [Back output]; even
when you set the [Top delivery tray] as output location for your prints.

• When the printer is in roll-to-roll mode, you have to cut the media before you can replace a
toner cartridge.
