Procedure
  1. Press the sub power button.
  2. Open the front cover.
  3. Affix single-color tape to the position shown in the figure on the flat table.
    MEMO We recommend white tape to reduce printing time for alignment markers.
    • The affixing area (A) should be at least 12 mm (0.48 in.) from the white line.
    • If the white line of the maximum printing area is transparent, apply the tape over the white line until it is no longer transparent or use non-transparent tape.
