Note
• Steps 5 and 6 are not required, if a barcode has been printed on the roll and you have activated
automatic detection of the remaining roll paper . The paper type and amount of paper left are
automatically detected.
• Keeping a roll in the printer for a long time without printing on it may leave a depression on the leading
edge.
When printing quality is most important, we recommend setting T rimEdge Reload to On so that the
paper edge is automatically cut before printing.
• For details on supported sizes and types of the roll that can be loaded, see Paper Sizes (→P .1 12) or
the Paper Reference Guide . ( → P .107)
• Clean the platen after you have used up a roll. ( → P .670)
• When a roll has been advanced, do not pull it out by force. This will prevent the paper from being
advanced.
If you accidentally pull out the paper , hold the Stop/Eject button to enable feeding again.
