Roll-to-Roll Media Installation
Successful media installation is dependent on several factors, including:
•
Centering/alignment of the supply media roll on the supply mandrel
•
Matching lengths of the supply and take-up cores
•
Aligned installation of the supply and take-up cores on the supply and take-up
mandrels
Inexact installation may result in media encoder errors, the misreading of the media width,
media rippling and/or head strikes.

Follow the steps below to install a new supply media roll:
1.
Install the supply media on the mandrel (see Figure 3-3), ensuring that the media is
centered (see Figure 3-4), and secure the locking hubs.
2.
Lower the mandrel assembly support arms on both sides of the frame and place the
mandrel/media assembly into the machine (see Figure 3-5). Make sure the mandrel is
seated properly on the gear and steel rollers (see Figure 3-6)
