Sensitive-paper mode (Z6dr and Z9+dr only) The printer's sensitive-paper mode is designed to ensure the highest-quality prints on paper particularly vulnerable to deformations or scratches, such as film. By default, for some categories of vulnerable paper, the printer will ask whether you want to load it as sensitive paper. If you want the printer to ask you every time you load a roll, go to the front panel and tap , then , then Paper source > Ask how to load. When loading paper in sensitive-paper mode, the front panel guides you through a step-by-step process. At the end, you are asked to keep the roll cover open while sensitive-paper mode is active. Apart from that, you can print as usual. CAUTION: Do not put your fingers into the printer's roll-paper input path and gear system. Notes NOTE: While it is active, it is indicated with an icon on the front panel's paper information screen. ● Sensitive-paper mode remains active until the roll is unloaded. While it is active, it is indicated with an icon on the front panel's paper information screen. ● When a roll is loaded or treated as sensitive paper, it cannot be parked by the printer. This means that no other paper will be available for printing as long as sensitive-paper mode is active. Thus, in this mode the printer works like a single-roll printer. ● If a second roll is loaded while sensitive-paper mode is active, the sensitive roll is automatically unloaded. View information about the paper To view the loaded paper information, tap , then the roll icon. The following information is displayed on the front panel: ● Paper type you have selected ● Roll or sheet status ● Width of the paper in millimeters (estimated) ● Length of the paper in millimeters (estimated) ● Calibration status If no paper is loaded, the message Out of paper is displayed.
