1. Media Load and Verification
- Install media onto spindle and attach the media guide
and tighten the blue locking nut. Verify spindle gears
mesh properly. Ensure left media guide is locked next
to the white alignment mark. Adjust right media guide
to within 2 mm of media edge. Load media into the rear
of printer, align with white alignment mark.
NOTE: paper will be automatically advanced following
a 6 second delay and then measured. Verify load was
successful under
Utility Menu - Display Settings.
- Install the front left and right Paper Guides (these help guide media under the air plenum)
and install the magnetic media holders
(help prevent media head strike) onto the Y-Arm
directly above the left and right edges of the media surface
(NOTE: illustrated in yellow
below; parts are actually black or white in color).
NOTE: After loading media a friendly reminder control panel message ‘Warning – Adjust
Rear Paper Guides…’ will appear.
- Ensure both rear paper guides are not touching media edges (2
mm offset minimum on both sides). This is very important as
media drag may occur at either the left or right sides (causes left
or right side micro-banding). Also ensure media is not rubbing or
‘climbing’ over guides at any time during printing.
CAUTION: once media has been aligned and guides
have been set, typically the media may "glide" against
one guide or the other but not to the point where media
jumps on top of the guide (see picture at left). Verify
media is initially loaded with the offset to ensure that
the media is not wedged between the two guides. This
can lead to left or right side horizontal banding on
printed output.
