6. Pull the tab of the Substrate loading Tool through the substrate path. Once the substrate is fully pulled through the printer's substrate path, open the magnetic substrate flaps to release the substrate. The Substrate Loading Tool can be stored under the printer. Double-sided printing Selecting the double-sided printing option will provide you with guidance and help specific to doublesided printing during the load process. The roll-to-roll configuration is recommended for double-sided printing. You cannot perform doublesided printing if the dual-roll spindle or the ink collector kit is in use. A double-sided job must be defined as a pair of images. ● Side A is the first image to be printed. ● Side B is the second image to be printed, on the reverse of Side A. On Side A, after each row of images a black continuous line called a "registration line" is automatically printed: (a) and (b) below. These registration lines are used while printing Side B to minimize any registration errors in the direction of substrate movement. When the whole of Side A has been printed, a space (c) is normally left blank for calibrations (the substrate is already warmed up), and a further space (d) is left blank so that the substrate can be loaded for printing Side B. However, these blank spaces are optional: you can turn them off. Handle the substrate 58 Chapter 3 Handle the substrate ENWW

Double-sided printing
Selecting the double-sided printing option will provide you with guidance and help specific to double-
sided printing during the load process.
The roll-to-roll configuration is recommended for double-sided printing. You cannot perform double-
sided printing if the dual-roll spindle or the ink collector kit is in use.
A double-sided job must be defined as a pair of images.
Side A is the first image to be printed.
Side B is the second image to be printed, on the reverse of Side A.
On Side A, after each row of images a black continuous line called a “registration line” is
automatically printed: (a) and (b) below. These registration lines are used while printing Side B to
minimize any registration errors in the direction of substrate movement.
When the whole of Side A has been printed, a space (c) is normally left blank for calibrations (the
substrate is already warmed up), and a further space (d) is left blank so that the substrate can be
loaded for printing Side B. However, these blank spaces are optional: you can turn them off.
