The media take-up unit takes up roll media, ranging in width from 17 to 44 inches, on a 2 or 3-inch paper tube in roll form after they are printed by the host computer.
Taking up begins automatically when a sensor attached to the bottom of the stand detects a roll delivered after printing falling down due to the weight of a weight
roller.
Rolls may also be manually taken up by using a button on the media take-up unit.
The media take-up unit has an overload protection feature to prevent accidents while taking up rolls. (The feature will shut down the motor automatically when an
overload occurs while taking up a roll.)
Additional features of the media take-up unit include:
- An adapter may be installed to support a 3-inch paper tube.
- Rolls can be rewound by feeding them backward to visually check images.
- Weight rollers varying in length to suit specific roll widths ensure added takeup efficiency.
- The printer detects errors in the media take-up unit by itself.
- Linked with the printer's sleep mode.
