Using the Media Take-up Unit
If you are using the optional media take-up unit, paper that
has been printed from roll media can be spooled
automatically. This is convenient if you are printing a large
quantity continuously. Refer to the following table for the
paper types that can be used with the media take-up unit.
If you are using the media take-up unit, perform the
following procedure.
Loading the Roll Media ( → P.2-28 )
Set the media take-up unit to Enable using the
operation panel (
→ P.2-47 )
Mount the roll media in the media take-up unit
(
→ P.2-47 )
Printing ( → P.1-38 )
Remove printed paper from the media take-up unit
(
→ P.2-53 )
Set the media take-up unit to Disable using the
operation panel (
→ P.2-56 )
Important
z If you are using the media take-up unit, do not tread on
the sensor, or place any object between the sensor
and the paper. This could cause misoperation.
z If you are using the media take-up unit, auto cutting
cannot be performed regardless of the the auto cutter
setting. If Auto Cut is turned ON in the printer driver,
however, auto cutting will be performed, so check that
the auto cutter is turned OFF before printing.
z If you are using cut sheets, the media take-up unit
cannot be used.
z With some print media, the hue of some colors may change
slightly when the ink on the surface of the media has dried
completely. Make sure the ink is dry before performing the
final coloring check or handling the printed matter.
z If you are printing large quantities of ink onto thin, weak paper
such as thin coated paper, etc., spooling may not operate
correctly in humid environments. In such cases, improve the
operating environment, or use the ink drying time function to
make sure the ink is dry before the paper is spooled.
z Fabric banner and synthetic paper may not spool
correctly in humid environments.
