2.

When the media is being unloaded, the front panel will display the amount remaining so that you
can note down for future reference.

3.

Next time the media is loaded, you can enter in the remaining length, and the printer will again
track the media as it is used. If the media was never actually unloaded, for example if there was a
media jam and the media was unloaded and the printer was turned off and on, if you select 'Last
know Length' the printer will apply the values from when the jam occurred (if the tracking feature
was enabled).

The remaining length of media is always displayed on the Substrate area of the front panel. If your
RIP has the functionality, this information will also be displayed in the RIP.

Enabling/Disabling the Length Tracking feature

1.

The length tracking feature can be disabled or enabled from the front panel. On the printer's front
panel, select the icon>Substrate handling options>Substrate length Tracking.

2.

Select On or Off.

Store the substrate

The following are tips for storing substrate:

Always keep unused rolls wrapped in the plastic wrap to prevent discoloration. Rewrap partially
used rolls if they are not being used.

Do not stack rolls.

Allow all substrates to adapt to room conditions out of the packaging for 24 hours before printing.

Handle film and glossy substrates by the edges or wear cotton gloves. Skin oils can be transferred
to the substrate, leaving fingerprint marks.

Keep the substrate tightly wound on the roll throughout the loading and unloading procedures. If
the roll starts to unwind, it can become difficult to handle.
