Guidelines for Using Roll Paper
Follow these guidelines when you print on roll paper:
•
When both spindles have roll paper on them, wrap one of the roll paper
belts around the roll you’re not using. This keeps the paper out of the
way.
•
To avoid feeding excess paper, make sure the
Sheet
light on the control
panel is off. Press the
Paper
Source
button until one of the
Roll
lights
comes on.
•
Choose
Roll
Auto
Cut
if you want the paper to be cut automatically
after each page is printed.
•
Choose
Roll
Cutter
Off
if you’re printing on canvas, vinyl, or other
heavy media. Media that is too thick may damage the cutter. Also
choose this setting if you’re using the optional auto take-up reel, or if
you want to print a series of pages and keep them together for later
cutting.
•
To protect it, always store unused roll paper in its original package—
including the bag, end caps, and box.
•
Avoid touching the printable surface of the paper. Oils from your skin
can affect print quality.
Using the Roll Paper Belts
To keep the paper wound when you’re not printing, use one of the roll paper
belts included with your printer.
