HP Latex 3000 Printer - Manual (Page 62)

NOTE: When one roll runs out, you should lock the differential in the middle of the spindle, using the lever
on the left-hand side.
1. Go to the Internal Print Server and select Substrate Load/Unload, then select the correct configuration.
2. In the Internal Print Server, choose from the list of substrate types the type that you have loaded.
3. If they are installed, remove the substrate edge holders from the print platen so that they do not get in
the way while loading the substrate.
CAUTION: Loading the substrate on top of the edge holders could severely damage the printheads
and carriage.
4. If you intend to use the Dual Roll Center Supports, install them now, for both input and output spindles,
and move them up to their calibrated positions to ensure that the substrate is later brought to the
output spindle and properly wound.
CAUTION: The calibrated position should be set following the instructions provided with the
accessory. An incorrect position could cause the carriage to crash (see There are wrinkles and ink
smears on the substrate on page 257 ).
5. You may find it helpful to lock the differentials on the input and output spindles while loading.
6. Bring the new rolls on their spindle to the rear of the printer, with the geared end of the spindle on the
left.
7. Rest the ends of the spindle on the platforms provided at the rear of the printer; plastic pads are
provided to absorb the impacts.
8. In the same way, load the spindle with the empty cores into the front of the printer. In this case, the
geared end of the spindle should be on the right.
