3. Note the position of the end of the roll on the scale marked on both sides from the center of the spindle.
The input and output rolls should be positioned identically on their respective spindles.
TIP: The rolls should be centered to reduce the risk of skew, wrinkles, and telescoping.
4. Connect the air gun to the pneumatic connector on the spindle, and inflate the spindle so that it cannot
move inside the roll.
TIP: If the substrate is telescoped on the input roll, there is a risk of substrate jams and damage to the
printheads. Try to straighten the edges of the substrate to minimize telescoping on the input roll before
loading it into the printer.
TIP: Check that the substrate is attached to the input core.
The roll is now ready to be loaded into the printer.
TIP: If you are a regular user of different substrate types, you can change rolls more quickly if you preload
rolls of different substrate types on different spindles. Extra spindles are available for purchase, see
Accessories on page 258.
NOTE: A dual-roll spindle can be used for single-roll printing. Lock the lever and inflate both valves.
