• Take care to avoid soiling the printing
surface when removing rolls of paper. A
soiled printing surface can affect printing
quality.
• Remove all wrinkles and curls from the
paper, if any, before loading it.
• When loading paper, make sure there is no
gap between the right side of the roll and
the roll holder.

• Be sure to perform steps 10 and 11. If paper cannot feed straight or becomes curled, it may rub
against the print head or be jammed.
• Do not pull paper in an attempt to force it to align with the paper alignment line (b). Doing so may
cause the paper to not feed straight.
13 The screen for selecting the paper type
is shown on the display screen. Press ▲
or ▼ to select the type of paper loaded in
the printer.
Select Coated Paper and then press OK.
Then from the menu that appears, select
HW Coated and then press OK.
Paper begins feeding.
MEMO
• If Paper loaded crooked. appears on
the display screen, refer to steps 10 and
11 to reload the roll of paper.
If the error occurs again after you reload
the paper, remove the roll holder from
the printer and check to make sure that
the roll of paper is in close contact with
the roll holder flange as described in
step 5.
14 Once feeding the paper is finished, the
printer automatically starts charging
the system with ink and adjusting the
printhead. Charging the system with ink
and adjusting the printhead for the first
time takes about 41 minutes.
Install the printer driver and electronic
manuals on your computer while the
printer is working. (See "Install the
Software and the Electronic Manuals" on
page 12)
MEMO
• Charging the system with ink fills the
system between the ink tanks and
printheads. In addition, cleaning is
performed to keep the printer in optimal
condition. This may cause the remaining
ink indicator and maintenance cartridge
capacity indicator to drop to about 80 %
(the remaining ink indicator may drop to
about 40 % for the starter ink tank), but
this is not a problem with the printer.
When printhead adjustment is finished,
Ready appears on the display screen.
MEMO
After you have finished setting up the printer and installing the software and electronic manuals, we recommend performing color calibration. Color
calibration compensates for changes in color from individual variation and aged deterioration of the printer, ensuring better color consistency.
Perform color calibration using the provided Sample Paper, which is compatible with this process. For information on other compatible paper, refer
to the Paper Reference Guide.
During color calibration, on the control panel's display screen, open
(settings/adj. tab) and select Adjust Printer - Calibration - Auto Adjust.
The process of color calibration takes about 10 minutes.
If you use the color calibration for color adjustment, it is useful to set the function to notify the execution period (Prompt Execution). For details of
the function, refer to "Using Color Calibration for Color Adjustment" in User's Guide.
