3.5 Handling and storing media
Before you will be able to cut a job, it is necessary to know which media to use.
3.5.1 Handling media
When you handle media, please pay attention to the following:
 Use recommended media in an appropriate environment. Following are the appropriate
temperature and humidity ranges for cutting.
 Do not use creased, damaged, torn, curled, or wrapped media.
 Temperature changes will influence the size of media that is used. Before using sheet
media, place the sheet in the working environment to have it match to the temperature of
the working area.
 Cutting before the media has been able to accommodate to the cutting environment may
cause media jams due to slippage or creases. This also adversely affects the quality of
cutting.
 Do not throw away the box or wrapping bag for storing media.
3.5.2 Precautions on storing media
When storing media, pay attention to the following:
 Do not store media in high temperatures, high humidity, or direct sunlight.
 Store sheet media in the original bag after unpacking.
 Unused roll media must be removed from the scroller, rewound tightly, and stored in the
original wrapping bag and the box.
 Do not wet media.
