Chapter 4 — Media Load

External Supply (Fan-fold)

This chapter describes the case when an external media supply is used,
for example a stack of fan-fold tickets or an external media roll.
It is possible to simply let the media enter the printer through either
of the two slots in the rear plate. However, we recommend to fi t the
optional Intermec Fan-Fold Kit, which provides better guidance of the
media using adjustable guides. The kit can be fi tted to either the upper
or the lower slot in the rear plate.
When using an external media supply, take care to protect the media
from dust, dirt, and other foreign particles, that can impair the printout
quality or cause unnecessary wear to the printhead.
Depending on brand and quality, all direct thermal media are more or
less sensitive to heat, direct sunlight, moisture, oil, plasticizers, fat, and
other substances. Protect it accordingly.
External supply can be used for:
• Tear-off operation
• Cut-off operation
• Peel-off operation (upper slot only)
