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 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. See below.
