otherwise a message is displayed. The accuracy of the advance is controlled by the substrate-advance sensor, or, for substrates that the sensor cannot see, by tracking the main roller movement. Before loading a roll into the printer, you must have a roll loaded onto a spindle (the input roll) and an empty core loaded onto another spindle (the output roll). See Load a roll onto the spindle on page 20. NOTE: For the output roll, use a single empty core the same length as the input core. Do not place two or more shorter cores on the same spindle, which could cause substrate-advance problems. TIP: The spindle weighs about 17 kg and a roll of substrate may weigh up to 110 kg. You may need a forklift or some other equipment to move it into position. 1. 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. 2. Lift the substrate pressure handles at the rear of the printer. Handle the substrate 3. Go to the printer's front panel and select the Substrate menu icon . NOTE: While you are in the Substrate menu, spindle rotation is motor-assisted and should not require much effort. 4. 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 two minutes to complete. During this period, you can load the input and output rolls. 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. 22 Chapter 3 Handle the substrate ENWW
