Press the Load Media button to move the media into printing position.

If you are going to use the takeup roll, be sure that a media core is installed
on it. Attach the leading edge of the media to the takeup roll with three
pieces of tape: one at the left, right, and center of the core. Orient the media
as shown in the preceding illustration.
As printing progresses, media loops down in front of the takeup core and will
be detected by the sensor on the printer stand leg. The takeup roll will then
be activated to roll the media.
Be sure not to block the sensor!

Adjust the media edge guides on the back of the printer. 1/16" gap spacing
is optimum.
Moving the carriage
When not in use, the ink cartridges rest in the service station at the right side of the
printer. This device seals the inkjets to prevent them from drying out. With the power
turned on, select Utility/Access Cartridges on the control panel to move the carriage
away from the service station so that you can install, change, adjust or clean the ink
cartridges, change the cutter, or clean the service station. Do not move the carriage
manually as you could damage the printer.
Installing the cutter
A cutter located in the ink cartridge carriage cuts roll media. The printer is shipped with
the cutter installed.
!
Be careful when handling the cutter to avoid injury.
!
Cutting media with a worn cutter can cause the media to jam and create
a ragged cut line. Replace the cutter to avoid this condition. Do not cut
media on the printer with an external knife, as you could seriously dam-
age the platen and void the warranty.
