2. Turn the Cover Open Levers frontward, and open the Top Cover.
3. When the inner core diameter of the media roll is 25.4 mm (1”),
remove the Media Holder Spacers from the Media Holders. The
Media Holder Spacers are required to print media rolls with 38.1-mm

up as shown below.
5. Hold the Media Holder with the smooth side facing the media roll,
align the Media Holder’s centre hole with the Media Shaft, and then
install the Media Holder by sliding it onto the Media Shaft. Make
sure that the media roll is positioned at the centre of the Media Shaft.
