Replacing and Removing Media
To replace or remove the media after printing, print the amount of media remaining, cut the
media, and remove the roll.
Printing the amount of media remaining
The printer displays the amount of media remaining and any media low warnings in the
control panel. This makes it possible to determine whether the media requires replacement
before printing.
The amount of media remaining can only be displayed if the correct length is entered when
the media is loaded.
You can print the amount of media remaining on the leading edge of the roll before it is
removed from the printer and then enter this number the next time the media is loaded for
accurate information on the amount remaining.
Note:
The printer does not calculate or display the amount of media remaining when Off is selected for
Remaining Setup in the setup menu. See "Viewing and Changing Media Settings" on page 85.
