Loading Roll Media - Epson 500DN - B Color Inkjet Printer Using Instructions

Loading Roll Media

Carefully follow the instructions included with your roll media feeding equipment and your roll media to load the media
onto the equipment correctly. Then follow these steps to feed the media into the printer:
1. Cut the leading edge of the roll media squarely and evenly, so the corners are at 90° angles.
2. Feed the end of roll media into the manual feed slot at the back of the printer. Looking down from above, align the left
edge of the media with the edge of the white plastic tab as shown below. Align the paper as close to the inside edge of
the plastic tab as possible without covering the edge (the edge of the tab should still be visible). Make sure the media
feeds straight into the slot.

3. Guide the media straight into the slot until you hear the printer feed motor. Hold the media in place for 3 seconds or
until the printer feeds it in. If it does not feed, remove the media and press the u button on the printer control panel
once to clear any errors, then repeat steps 2 and 3 to align and reload the media.
