Insert the paper holders into the paper roll.
A pink paper holder and a blue paper holder are
provided with the printer. Insert these paper holders
into the ends of the paper roll as shown in the figure
below, with the pink paper holder in the end closer to
the pink adhesive label and the blue paper holder in
the end closer to the blue label.
Notes
• If the edges of the paper on the ends of the paper roll
are not even, it is necessary to make the edges even
(being careful not to crumple the edges while doing
so) before placing the paper roll in the media tray.
Using a paper roll with uneven edges can cause a
malfunction.
• Do not strike or squeeze the paper roll. Doing so
could break or bend the paper roll, and could result
in poor printing quality.
• If inserting the paper holder into the paper roll is
difficult when loading the paper roll, squeeze the
roll from both sides to restore its shape.
• Correctly insert the paper holders all the way.
If the paper holder selector comes off
The selector could come off if you drop the blue paper
holder. Follow the procedure described below to
reattach the selector to the paper holder.
1 As shown in the figure below, put the selector in
the bobbin, line up the V mark on the selector
with the arrow on the bobbin, and then push the
selector into place.
The hook on the selector snaps into the notch on
the bobbin marked by the arrow.
Note
There are two hooks on the selector: one indicated by
the V mark and the other on the opposite side of the
selector. Do not install the selector so that the hook on
the side opposite of the V mark is in the notch on the
bobbin marked by the arrow, as doing so could result
in damage to the paper holder.
2 Turn the selector in the direction indicated by the
arrow in the figure below until it clicks into place.
