General advice
TIP:Before starting a paper loading process, make sure you have enough room around the printer,
both in front and behind.
CAUTION:Make sure the printer wheels are locked (the brake lever is pressed down) to prevent
the printer from moving.
All paper must be 280 mm (11 in) or longer. A4 and US Letter paper cannot be loaded landscape.
TIP:For photo paper wear cotton gloves to avoid transferring oils onto the paper.
CAUTION:Keep the basket closed throughout the loading process.
Load a roll...

1.Remove the right-hand end of the spindle from the printer, then the other end.
WARNING!Do not insert your fingers into the spindle supports during the removal process.
2.The spindle has a stop at each end to keep the roll in position. The blue stop can be removed to
mount a new roll; it slides along the spindle to hold rolls of different widths. Remove the blue
paper stop from the end of the spindle.
3.If your roll has a 76 mm (3 in) cardboard core, ensure that the core adaptors have been
installed....

TIP:You may need two people to handle a large roll.
5.Slide the new roll onto the spindle. Make sure the paper type is oriented as shown. If it is not,
remove the roll, turn it 180 degrees and slide it back on to the spindle. There are labels on the
spindle showing the correct orientation.
NOTE:From the back of the printer, the blue stop is fitted onto the right-hand end of the
spindle.
Ensure both ends of the roll are as close to the spindle stops as possible.
6.Put the blue paper stop onto the open end...

Easy loading procedure
1.Standing behind the printer, rest the spindles black end on the left side roll holder. Do not put
the end completely into the roll holder.
2.Rest the blue end of the spindle on the right side roll holder.
3.With both hands, push the spindle into both roll holders at the same time. The spindle snaps into
place.

4.If the edge of the roll is torn (sometimes due to tape used to hold the end of the roll) or not
straight, pull the paper slightly beyond the cutting groove and use a cutter to cut a straight edge.
TIP:Cut the paper as straight as possible, as uneven paper does not load correctly.
5.Insert the edge of the paper into the feeder.
CAUTION:Do not push your fingers inside the printers paper path.
6.Roll the spindle into the feeder until you feel resistance. The printer detects the paper and feeds
it...

8.Select your paper category and type.
TIP:If you have loaded a paper type whose name does not appear in the paper list, see The
paper type is not in the driver on page 134.
9.The printer checks the alignment and measures the width. It cuts a strip off the leading edge of
glossy or satin paper to ensure perfect quality; other paper types are not cut.
10.Look at the front panel; you may find some instructions there.
11.When the roll is aligned, the front panel displays the Ready message and the printer is...
