Loading Paper on the StudioJet
See the StudioJet Quick Start Guide.
Loading Paper on the FlexJet E
1. Before loading a new paper roll always make sure the drive shaft
is clean. See the Routine Maintenance section for more details.
2. Place a paper hub in each end of the paper roll using a rubber
mallet.
3. Slide the feed shaft through the paper hubs and the paper roll.
If a paper hub falls out, press it firmly back into the end of the
paper roll and re-seat it with a rubber mallet.
4. For paper narrower than 70-in, center the paper roll on the feed
shaft. Make sure the hubs remain securely in place. For paper
greater than 70-in in width, offset the paper to the left slightly
to avoid covering the Service Station area. Also leave a mini-
mum 1/4 inch gap between the paper edge and the edge of the
fan on the left side of the rear cover of the machine.
5. Use the supplied hex wrench to tighten both screws on each
paper hub.
6. Check that the right support block is clear of debris and apply a
light coating of white lithium grease (found in the Accessory Kit.)
7. Lift the feed shaft ends, one at a time, into the support blocks.

clothing away from all

Caution
The FlexJet Set-up, Operating and
Maintenance Video, provided on
CD-ROM in the Accessory Kit,
provides a helpful visual overview.
Hint
Make sure the paper unrolls from
behind and towards the printer.
