Media Supply Positions
There are four sets of slots and threaded holes in the printer’s center
section for the media supply roll post or rotating hub (optional).
These slots allow the largest possible roll size to fit, given the
limitations of any liner takeup unit and/or the full enclosure provided
by the long side door or Megatop. The positions are indicated by
numbers engraved in the center section.
• Position 1 is used when the media compartment is fully enclosed
by a long side door, regardless of the existence of any integral liner
takeup unit. Maximum roll size is 152 mm (6 inches).
• Position 2 is used when the printer has a short side door that only
encloses the print mechanism, but does not have an integral liner
takeup unit. Maximum roll size is 213 mm (8.38 inches).
• Position 3 is used when the printer has a short side door and an
integral liner takeup unit. This position is also used with the
optional 8-inch Megatop, see Chapter 8, “Options.” Maximum
roll size is 213 mm (8.38 inches).
• Position 4 is reserved for possible future development.
The printer can also use an external media supply located behind the
printer, unless it has an optional 8-inch Megatop.
