Loading Media
Follow these guidelines, as well as those included in your media package,
when handling media:
• Roll media is heavy, so two people are required to load it onto the
printer.
• Avoid touching the printable surface with your bare hands. Fingerprints
may affect print quality. Handle media by the edges or use cotton
gloves.
• Be careful not to bend or scratch the media.
• Keep unused media in its original packaging and store it in a cool, dry
place to maintain quality. Avoid storing your printouts where they will
be exposed to high temperature, humidity, or direct sunlight.
