Pre-load the different types of media onto the spindles.
Remove and replace the spindle with the new type of media.
Extra spindles are available from HP see Ordering Accessories Loading media onto the Take Up Reel When loading media onto the Take Up Reel:
Check the leading edge as it unwinds from the spool. If it is not evenly cut or if it is skewed, trim the media as shown in the animation.
Check the media is straight when it is attached to the Take Loading Roll Media Guidelines Up Reel, otherwise the media will skew as it is wound onto the core.
The core tube on the take-up reel must be the same width as the media you are using.
Make sure the take-up core is pushed firmly into both media guides.
If you need to feed more media from the printer, and the 'Move Media' screen is no longer displayed, go to the media menu and press Enter. Then select 'Move Media'.
If you are using a three- inch cardboard core, make sure the core adaptors supplied with the printer, have been installed. Core adaptors LOAD AND UNLOAD MEDIA file:///D|/hydra/ug_loc/f
