Chapter B — Media Specifications
EasyCoder PF4i User’s Guide (IPL Version) 111
The recommended media thickness is 175μm (7 mils) with the
standard printhead or 220μm (8.7 mils) with the special thick
media printhead. If thicker media is used, print quality may be
reduced. Media stiffness must be balanced against thickness to
maintain print quality. Media rolls to be loaded inside the printer
should be wound with the printable side facing outwards.
The media supply must not be exposed to dust, sand, or grit. Any
hard particles, however small, can damage the printhead.
