Choosing feed media options
Feed media options let you:

Feed media
Feed media options let you move the media forward or backward.
To feed media
1 Press Feed Media/Forward (or Backward).
Media feeds in the selected direction while the button is pressed.
Media counter
The Media Counter function gives you a means of estimating the amount of media left on a roll. When a new
roll of media, or a used roll where the remaining length is known, is installed on the printer, you can enter the
length of the roll into the printer's front panel display. As images are printed, this amount is decremented. You can
view the estimated amount of media remaining on the printer's front panel display. When you are ready to remove
the roll, you can display and print the estimated amount of media remaining on the roll. When you reload this
media, you can enter this figure on the printer's front panel display.
