INSTALLING PAPER
The outside surface of the paper is covered
with a heat sensitive coating. The paper must
be fed so that the coated outside surface is
fed upward, facing the back of the
compartment. Press the release buttons on
each side of the compartment to remove the
empty core. While holding the buttons, insert
the new roll until it is approximately centered.
Release the buttons and adjust the roll until
the holding pins snap into the core of the
paper roll. Make a clean square cut across
the end of the paper. Feed this end into the
opening formed by the plastic and metal
guides. Gently push the paper in 2 to 3 cm
(1 to 1.5") and press the Paper Advance
button until paper appears under the cutting
bar at the top of the compartment.
Use BLUE or BLACK thermal paper 80mm
(3.15") wide. The printer contrast can be
adjusted for paper with differing thermal
sensitivities. If characters are too dark or too
light, see Print Contrast in the
Diagnostic
Center Setup section to select the contrast
setting that works best with the paper being
used.
