2-3 Loading Media
6 Align the left- and right-hand stoppers with the
width of the media and tighten the screws to
secure in place.
7 Pull out the media so that at least 50 cm (20
in.) hangs down at the front of the machine.
8 Rotate the media flanges on the shaft to take
up the hanging media at the front of the ma-
chine.
When you roll back the media until the sensor
comes into view, a tight seal is formed between
the media and the platen, and the media is
stretched taut.
To ensure that the media take-up is not crooked,
clear of items such as the media clamps that
may obstruct media feed.
9 With the media pulled out from the roll stretched taut with no slack, move the loading lever toward
"LOAD".
Pinch rollers lower to hold the media in place.
To secure the media in place,
move all the way to "LOAD".
When moved partway, only the
left-hand pinch roller de-
scends. Data cannot be output
while in this state.
If there is slackness in the
loaded media, the media may
move at an angle and come
loose from the pinch rollers.
