Rolling the roll paper with too much force may damage the printer or the roll paper adapters.

Press Set on the control panel to unlock the paper feed slot.
Insert the leading edge of the paper into the paper feed slot until you hear a sound.
Make sure the roll paper is taut and the leading edge is not folded.
Close the roll paper cover.

Note: To prevent dust from accumulating inside the printer, always keep the roll paper cover closed unless you are loading or unloading media.
On the LCD screen, select the paper type for the loaded paper.
Note: If the roll paper has a barcode printed on it, the printer reads it and automatically loads the correct settings.
If you want to track the amount of paper remaining on the roll, do the following:
- Select Paper Remaining and turn on Remaining Amount Management.
- Select Remaining Amount and enter the length of the roll paper.
- If you want to be notified when paper is low, select Remaining Alert and enter an amount.
Note: When you enable Remaining Amount Management, the printer prints a barcode on the leading edge of the roll when you remove the roll paper. When you reload the paper, the printer reads the barcode and automatically sets the paper type and amount remaining.
Select Advanced Paper Settings and set any additional settings, if necessary.
Select OK when you are finished.
