The recommended media thickness is 60 to 170 μm (2.4 to 6.7
mils). 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.
The media must be wound up on the core in such a way that the
printer can pull the end free.
