Load rolls into the printer
The two substrate rolls are mounted on the rear dual-roll spindle and will be collected on the front dual-
roll spindle. The substrate goes from the rear spindle over the main roller, over the platen, over the front
roller and then to the front spindle.
NOTE:
You can load substrate with the printed face inwards or outwards on the spindle, in which
case the spindle will turn in the opposite direction. The printer asks you for the winding direction if it
cannot detect it automatically.
Before loading two rolls into the printer, you must have both rolls loaded on the rear dual-roll spindle
and two empty cores loaded on the front dual-roll spindle. See
