Installing A New Tape Roll - Pitney Bowes Connect+ 1000 Operator's Manual

Installing a New Tape Roll

The mailing system uses gummed or adhesive tape. A red stripe appears along its edge
approximately 36 inches from the end to indicate a low tape condition. Replace the tape
when the stripe appears. You can install a new roll before the system actually runs out of
tape.
CAUTION: If you do not use Pitney Bowes supplied tape, you will not be able to deter-
mine when the tape is running out and this may cause a jam. The red stripe on the tape noti-
fies you that you are running low on tape. There is also a black stripe that tells the machine
when it is out of tape. When the system detects the black stripe on the tape it stops the
machine. At this point there is still a small amount of tape on the roll.
