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 a roll into the printer, you must have a roll loaded onto the input spindle. See Load a roll onto the spindle on page 33. TIP: The spindle by itself is quite heavy, and a roll of substrate can be much heavier. You are recommended to use a forklift or some other equipment to move it into position; otherwise, lift one end into the printer, and then the other end. 1. Go to the HP Internal Print Server and select Substrate > Load/Unload, then select the correct configuration. 2. Remove the substrate edge holders in the print platen, or move them aside, so that they do not get in the way while loading the substrate. CAUTION: Loading the substrate on top of the edge holders could severely damage the printheads and carriage. 3. Lift the substrate pressure handles at the rear of the printer. Handle the substrate 4. Go to the front panel and select Carriage beam position > Move to highest position. The printer raises the carriage beam, making it easy to insert the substrate. This process takes about 2 minutes to complete. During this period, you can load the input roll. NOTE: While the carriage beam is rising, you can stop it by pressing the Cancel key. 5. Bring the new roll on its spindle to the rear of the printer, with the geared end of the spindle on the left. 6. Rest the ends of the spindle on the platforms provided at the rear of the printer; plastic pads are provided to absorb the impacts. ENWW Load a roll into the printer 49
