Zebra MtP400 Operator's Manual - Installing Media

Getting Started 

Installing Media 

Each printer comes supplied with either a roll of receipt paper or a cassette of receipt paper depending on the 

model you purchased.   

Note: For maximum performance and optimum print quality, use only genuine Printek media in your 

MtP400 series printer.   

To install media, you must release the paper door by moving the Paper Door Release in the direction shown in 

Figure 2 and then lift the paper door to expose the paper compartment.

Please refer to the appropriate section for roll or cassette media depending on your model printer. 

Roll Media 

Roll media is used in the MtP400 and the MtP400 LP printers.  To install media in the MtP400 SL model, 

please go to the next section. 

The MtP400 and MtP400 LP models feature a paper supply indicator as shown in Figure 2.  The indicator 

changes from all green to all red as the paper supply is used. 

To load media, refer to Figure 3 and locate the movable media support.  Move the support in the direction 

shown and then locate the media between the two supports and release the movable support.   

Note: Make sure that the roll spins freely on the media supports.
