Using the Auto Take-up Reel Unit
The auto take-up reel unit automatically takes up media as it is printed, improving the
efficiency of unmanned operation.
The auto take-up reel unit for this printer can take up media in either of the following
directions.
Printed side out
Taking-up with printed side out places the printed surface on the outside of the roll.
Taking-up with printed side in places the printed surface on the inside of the roll.
Follow the procedures below to attach the roll core to the auto take-up reel unit, and then
attach the media to the roll core depending on how the media is rolled.
The explanation that follows uses the supplied auto take-up reel unit for illustrative
purposes, but the same procedure can be followed when using the optional auto take-up
reel unit for heavy media (unless otherwise noted).
See "Attaching the Roll Core" on page 93, "Take up with the printed side facing out" on
page 97, or "Take up with the printed side facing in" on page 102.
Caution:
c
❏ Follow the instructions in the manual when loading media or roll cores or removing the
take-up roll.
Dropping media, roll cores, or take-up rolls could result in injury.
❏ Be sure that your hands or hair do not get caught in the auto take-up reel unit while it
is in operation.
Failure to observe this precaution could result in injury.
❏ Use a roll core that is longer than the width of the media. This allows the media to be
taken up without protruding from the core.
