Note
The Scale command does not
effect calibration values.

Cleaning the Support Blocks

When dust and paper residue will accumulate on the take-up and
feed shaft support blocks, frequent feed shaft jams can occur. Per-
form this procedure when debris inhibits easy rotation of the shaft.
1. Turn off power to the printer.
2. Remove the feed shaft and the take-up shaft.
3. Dampen a lint-free cloth with isopropyl (pharmacy) alcohol
and gently wipe the plastic support blocks until accumulated
residue is removed.
4. Apply a light coating of grease to the plastic feed shaft support
block. White Lithium grease is supplied with the printer. 3-in-
1 brand oil is also a very good lubricant for the feed block.
™
5. Wipe down both ends of the feed and take-up shafts before
reinstalling them.

Size Calibration

Over time, the printer may require calibration to account for normal
wear. Calibration adjusts the output to match design intent.

Prepare the Printer (See the Operation chapter)

1. Load the printer with, at minimum, 46-in wide paper.
2. Install ink cartridges.
3. Using the Arrow keys, move the carriage so that the carriage
notch is positioned about 1 inch from the right edge of the paper.
4. Press the Set Origin key to put the printer in START (green
light) mode.
