Keeping Track of the Amount of Roll Paper Left
Setting ManageRemainRoll to On in the Paper Menu of the Control Panel will print a barcode with text on the roll
when the roll is removed that identifies the type of paper and amount left. When ManageRemainRoll is On and
you load rolls with printed barcodes, the type of paper and amount left are automatically detected after rolls are
loaded. The barcode will be cut off after it has been read.

Specifying the Ink Drying Time for Rolls
Specifying the Ink Drying Time for Rolls
When you are using paper that takes longer for ink to adhere, ink may be transferred onto the paper surface during
ejection, soiling it. In that case, you may be able to improve the condition by setting the time to wait for the ink to
dry after printing.
Note
•
If the Cutter touches the print surface on which the ink is not dry, the paper surface may become scratched or
soiled, or the paper surface may rub when the paper falls and the surface may become soiled.
To wait for the ink to dry without allowing printed documents to fall after printing, set Cutting Mode on the menu of
the printer to Eject.
(See "Specifying the Cutting Method for Rolls.")
