Media Roll Core Size Adapters
The media roll adapters kit includes three (3) pairs of media roll adapters. The kits are for
the following inner diameter (I.D.) media cores
:
• 38.1 mm (1.5 inches)
• 50.8 mm (2.0 inches)
• 76.2 (3.0 inches)
Adapter Usage
• The adapters are intended to be permanently installed in the printer.
• They may be changed to support other media roll sizes that require one of these
adapter sizes.
• The adapters may wear out if they are changed too much.
• Removing the media adapters to print on standard roll cores may leave plastic
pieces in the media roll holders side areas that rub against the roll. Push those
attached pieces back into the side of the media roll holder.
Installing Media Roll Adapters
1. Place one screw in the top adapter mounting hole of both of the roll holders. Start
turning the screws clockwise using the Torx wrench until the tip of the screw is just
protruding through the inside of the roll holder. The screws are self-tapping.
2. Place the adapter on the inside of the roll holder. The large side of the adapter is on
top. The smooth side (no ribs) faces the middle of the printer.
3. Align the adapter’s top screw hole to the protruding screw tip and pinch it tightly to the
roll holder body. Tighten the screw until there is no gap between the adapter and roll
holder. Do not tighten beyond this point. Over tightening will strip the thread.
