2 Basic Operation
Pass the material between the pinch rollers and the grit
rollers as shown in the figure.
1
Line up the right-hand side of the material with the
guide line, and line up the front edge of the material
with the reflective tape.
If the front edge of the material has been cut at an
angle, pull out the material so that all of the material
covers the reflective tape.
* Be sure to line up the right-hand edge of the material
with the guide line.
If the material is not positioned correctly when the
[SETUP] key is pressed, the display shows "IN-
VALID SHEET SET SHEET AGAIN."

Sheet Material
- When using sheet material, if the loaded material contacts the media flange of the back of the unit, shift the right-
hand retainer to a position where the material doesn't touch the media flange.
- When transparent material is loaded, it is necessary to set [SHEET TYPE] to [CLEAR]. For more information, see
"4-6 What to Do If..." (Even when the [SETUP] key is pressed, [INVALID SHEET] appears and the material
cannot be detected).
- When thick material is loaded, it may adjust the head height. For more information, see "4-2 Adjusting the Height
of the Printing Head."
- When changed to a different type of material, it is necessary to carry out feed correction and bidirectional correc-
tion. For more information, see "2-6 Printing -- Making Corrections for Printing."
- If the sides of the material have warped, then bend back the warp or feed the warped portion to the front and
perform setup again. Attempting to print with warped material may scrape the printing heads or cause the material
to jam. If the printing heads become damaged or soiled as a result, printing accuracy may suffer.
