Using The Optional Takeup Roll - ENCAD 212528-05 Quick Start Manual

Using the optional takeup roll

The optional takeup roll allows unattended printing by automatically winding
printed media onto a core. In this mode, the automatic cutter is disabled. When
using this option, be sure that the media sensor on the printer's right leg is not
blocked.
Depending on the ambient humidity, temperature, and amount of ink coverage,
you may want to turn on the dryer and/or set a dry time as described in the
Reference Guide on the system CD-ROM. If you are using the dryer, position it
so that the fans blow on the media.

To use the takeup roll
1 Set the printer to Takeup mode by pressing Setup Menu/Paper
Options Menu, Supply Type/Takeup, then press OK. This enables
the takeup roll and disables the cutter.
2 Install an empty core onto the takeup guides. Be sure that the core
width matches the width of the media you are using.
3 Slide the roll guide into the media core, and secure it by tightening
the locking mechanism.
Since media cores can be shorter than the width of the media,
position the media guide 1/8" from the end of the core and lock it into
place.
4 Press Feed Media Menu/Forward to advance enough media to
allow its leading edge to come to the center of the takeup roll.
