After
adjusting the media feeding unit, you need to perform a similar
procedure on the auto take-up reel.
Two people are required for parallel adjustment: one in front of
the printer and one in back.
Use the
large hexagon wrench to loosen the four fixing screws on the front
of the product as shown.
Loosen
the roll core holder locking screws and move the left roll core
holder all the way to the left. Align the inside edge of the right
roll core holder with the outside edge of the after heater, then
tighten the right roll core holder locking screw.
Note: If the left
roll core handle shaft is pushed in, rotate the handle until it
stops.
Insert
the roll core with the alignment tool into the right roll holder.
Then insert the left roll core holder into the roll core and
tighten the roll core holder locking screw.
Rotate the handle until part A is
fully inserted as shown.
Move the alignment tool to the left
side and feed it through the paper path between the media guide bar
and the after heater.
Place the alignment tool (a) next to
the left adjustment guide (b) and line them up at the front and
back of the product. Then attach the counterweight to the alignment
tool.
Note the location where the alignment
tool crosses the front of the white line on the platen.
Lift up the alignment tool and slide
it to the other side of the product, next to the right adjustment
guide. Line up the alignment tool and the adjustment guide at the
front and back of the product. Note the location where the
alignment tool crosses the front of the white line on the
platen.
Do one of the following:
If the location you noted is different from the left side, go
to the next step.
If the location you noted is the same as the left side, go to
step 11.
Make sure all four of the mounting
screws are loose. Use the large hexagon wrench to turn the silver
adjustment screw counterclockwise to move the line back and turn it
clockwise to move the line forward. The line moves approximately 1
mm with each turn of the screw.
Continue to turn the silver adjustment screw until the measurements
are the same.
Fully tighten all four of the screws
on the right bracket to secure it in place.
At the back of the product, remove the
counterweight.
At the front of the product, remove
the alignment tool.
Move the alignment tool to the left
side and feed it through the paper path between the media guide bar
and the after heater.
Place the alignment tool (a) next to
the left adjustment guide (b) and line them up at the front and
back of the printer. Then attach the counterweight to the alignment
tool.
Note the location where the alignment
tool crosses the front of the white line on the platen.
Lift up the alignment tool and slide
it to the other side of the product, next to the right adjustment

front and back of the product. Note the location where the
alignment tool crosses the front of the white line on the
platen.
Do one of the following:
If the location you noted is different from the left side, go
to the next step.
If the location you noted is the same as the left side, go to
step 21.
Use the small hexagon wrench to loosen
the two screws.
Make adjustments using the large
hexagon wrench while holding the media guide bar. Turn the
adjustment screw counterclockwise to move the line back and turn it
clockwise to move the line forward. The line moves approximately 1
mm with each turn of the screw.
Continue to turn the adjustment screw until the measurements are
the same.
Use the small hexagon wrench to

Remove the roll core and the alignment
tool.
Remove the alignment tool from the
roll core.
Remove the adjustment guides from the
product.
Use a damp lint-free cloth to wipe off
any dust and lint from the back of the adjustment guides. Roll up
the alignment tool and adjustment guides and store them so that
they do not become creased.
