Install dual media rolls on the main scroller

The dual media roll printing function allows you to print simultaneously on two media rolls of up to 50-inches
wide. Dual media roll printing has the following special requirements:

Maximum media roll width — 50 inches

Use identical media rolls — type and width. The wound diameter (length of media remaining) on each
roll must be the same

Only print on the outside of the media rolls. Printing on the inside of the media rolls cannot be used
for dual media roll printing

Start winding two media rolls simultaneously to ensure the wound diameter is identical.

CAUTION

The printer does not automatically mask the gap between media rolls. If you do not

take this into account, when you send a print job, any data in the unmasked area will be printed
on the platen. This is also the case for test prints.

CAUTION

Do not touch heater surfaces in the paper path. This may cause burns.

Handle media rolls with care. They can be heavy and difficult to move in confined spaces. In some
cases, two people should move and install media rolls. Dropping a media roll could cause
personal injury or damage to the printer.

This procedure shows you how to install two media rolls on the main scroller for printing on the outside of
the roll.
