Rolls are heavy, and dropping a roll maycause injury.Important• When handling the roll, be careful not to soil the printing surface. This may affect the printing quality. We recom-mend wearing clean cloth gloves when handling rolls to protect the printing surface.• Use scissors or a cutting tool to cut the edge of the roll paper if it is uneven, dirty, or has tape residue. Otherwise,it may cause feeding problems and affect the printing quality. Be careful not to cut through any barcodes printedon the roll.• Align the edges of the paper on both ends of the roll. Misalignment may cause feeding problems.Note• For details on supported sizes and types of rolls, see Paper Sizes or the Paper Reference Guide.
