The media take-up controls are located on the control panel next to the main scroller (take-up reel) drive
unit at the take-up side of the printer. This control panel provides the necessary switches to control the
manual advance or rewind of media through the media path (from the feed side to take-up side of the
printer). It also provides the method of selecting which side of the main scroller (for take-up) to wind the
media (inside or outside).
Scroller drive controls:
1. The white media rewind push switch (1), which is used to rewind media from the main scroller (take-
up reel) through the print path (from the feed side to take-up side of the printer) in the direction set
with the winding direction switch (3). The same operation can also be controlled using the black button
on the foot switch connected to the feed side of the printer
2. The black media advance push switch (2), which is used to feed media to the main scroller (take-up
reel) through the print path (from the feed side to take-up side of the printer). The same operation can
also be controlled using the black button on the foot switch connected at the feed side of the printer.
3. Three position media winding direction switch (3) which is used to disable the drive and to select which
side of the scroller to wind the media on (inside or outside).
Foot switches
The printer is equipped with two remote foot switches, one to control main scroller drive functions on the
feed side and the other to control the main scroller drive functions on the take-up side. Both foot switches
are identical and contain a black push switch (2) and a white push switch (1). These switches each have
exactly the same functions as their equivalent push switches on the control panels for the main feed and
take-up reel units.
