[01-01802-EN] Loading a Media Roll (When the Optional Cutter Unit Is Installed) – SATO Help Center

Applicable models: CT4-LX
Please refer to the below.

• The print head and its surroundings are hot after printing. Be careful not to get burned.

• Touching the edge of the print head with your bare hand could cause injury.

• Be careful not to touch the cutter blade.

• Adjust the cut position so as not to cut the label.

View the video below for the procedure.

Press the cover open latch (1) to open the top cover (2).

While pulling the slide lever (3), move the right side media guide (4) to adjust the width of the media guide to match the width of the media.

Load the media roll.

Load the media roll from above so the print side faces the print head (5).

If the media roll is loaded correctly, the flaps (6) stand up.

•

There are two wind directions for the media. The illustration is for face-out media.

Pull the paper out from the product so it goes under the left and right tabs (7), and pass it through the media discharge outlet (8).

Close the top cover.

Push both ends of the top cover, and close it firmly until it clicks.

•

When closing the top cover, be careful not to pinch your fingers.

• When the Label Waste Prevention function is enabled, an error occurs if the leading edge of the media extends too far from the media discharge outlet. Align the leading edge of the media with the media discharge outlet.

When using media with a label length of 20 mm (0.8") or less, set the leading edge of the media in position by pulling it about 10 mm (0.4") from the media discharge outlet towards the inside of the product.

Align the media to the print start position, and switch to Online mode.

If the

icon appears on the screen, the Label Waste Prevention function is enabled. Tap [GO ONLINE] to have the media position adjusted automatically when switching to Online mode.

If the

icon does not appear on the screen, the Label Waste Prevention function is disabled. Tap [FEED] to feed media, and then tap [GO ONLINE].
