Important
• Starting the printer when it is connected via the USB cable to a Macintosh computer that is off may cause the computer
to start up at the same time. To prevent this, disconnect the USB cable before starting the printer. Connecting the printer
to the computer via a USB hub may solve this issue.
Turning the printer off
Important
• Never disconnect the printer's power supply or unplug it during a print job. This may damage the printer.

Important
• If you are not using the optional Media Take-up Unit when printing long documents such as banners, spread a
clean cloth or paper on the floor. Use the Output Stacker to prevent long printed documents from being soiled by
the floor after they are printed. (See "Using the Output Stacker.") ➔ P.500
Note
• For details on supported sizes and types of rolls, see Paper Sizes or the Paper Reference Guide. (See "Paper
Sizes.") ➔ P.458 (See "Types of Paper.") ➔ P.458
• To wait until the ink dries after printing before cutting the roll, set Drying Time in the printer driver. (See "Specifying
the Ink Drying Time for Rolls.") ➔ P.482
• Once you have used all the paper on a roll, clean the platen. If the Platen inside the Top Cover becomes dirty, it
may soil the underside of paper. (See "Cleaning Inside the Top Cover.") ➔ P.840
