Printing procedure
8. Start printing.
• Printing from Windows (→P .88)
• Printing from Mac OS X (→P .89)
• Printing from Mac OS 9 (→P .91)
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 or Automatic
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 13) or
the Paper Reference Guide . ( → P .108)
• Clean the platen after you have used up a roll. ( → P .640)
• 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 Load/Eject button to enable feeding again.
( → P .122)
• When printing on rolls after printing on sheets, if the lit paper selection lamp does not switch from the
Cut Sheet lamp to the Roll Media lamp , press the Feeder Selection button.
