Paper Loading
1. Open the paper cover.
2. If there is any unused paper or if there is an empty paper roll core in the paper
roll bucket inside the printer, remove it before inserting a new paper roll. You
can throw the core in the trash can.
Note: Refer to the label on the inside of the paper cover for a diagram of how
to load paper.
3. See Figure 24 on page 52 and place the paper roll into the paper roll bucket as
shown. The leading edge of the paper should come from the direction of the
front of the printer and go across the top of the roll as shown in the diagram. If
it feeds from the bottom of the roll, nothing will be printed on the paper.
Note: The thermal printhead will not print on paper with glue on it. If the new
paper roll was sealed by glue, tear off the 6 to 8 inches of paper with
glue on it before loading it. Or, you can advance the paper after loading
to get rid of the glued paper.
