Adjusting the Position of the Pinch Roller According to the State of a Media
Adjust the position of the pinch roller according to the width of the media to be set.
This machine feeds the media with a pinch roller and grid roller for printing or cutting.
The pinch roller should be above the grid roller.
• When setting the media. Do not place the pinch roller that has been removed from the media on the grid roller. (Move the
pinch roller as shown in the illustration “X” in “How to Adjust the Pinch Roller”.) Operating the printer with the media not
gripped between the pinch roller and grid roller could wear the pinch roller out.
