Loading Sheet Media

When loading sheet media in the machine, use the right edge of the media as a reference. This is because the range of movement of the right pinch roller is fixed.

Place the media in a position where the following conditions are met and where media waste will be minimized.
  • Position of right edge of media

    Within the right pinch roller movable range and where about 10 mm (0.39 in.) between the right roller edge of the right pinch roller and the right edge of the media can be secured.

  • Position of left edge of media

    Where about 10 mm (0.39 in.) between the left edge of the roller and the left edge of the media can be secured when placing the left pinch roller within the range of the grit pattern.

    MEMO

    If 10 mm (0.39 in.) cannot be ensured for margin A from the left edge of the media to the left pinch roller, move the right pinch roller and the media to the left to provide the margin.

    The range of motion of the right pinch roller is fixed. Place the right pinch roller within the movable range in a position that ensures margin A from the right edge of the media to the right pinch roller is about 10 mm (0.39 in.).
