Xerox offers paper rolls with the widths shown in the illustration.

---

Note: The Xerox media rolls have a three-inch core. If you are using a media roll with a two-inch core, you must remove the adapter on the paper roll holder. Refer to Using a 2-inch core media roll: removing the core adapter for instructions.

Note: See also Supplemental print margin information.

---

---

Note: If you rotate an image, remember that the margins remain the same, relative to the leading and trailing edges; if an unrotated image is placed against the trailing edge, it will be clipped when it is rotated, because the leading edge's margin is larger.

---

---

Note: To assure the correct page margins, use the drivers supplied by Xerox.

Leading edge	Typical use
	Orientation	Rotation
Short side (preferred)	Portrait	0º or 180º
Long side	Landscape	90º or 270º

Roll media

The maximum image area is the entire requested page size, up to the limits of the roll width. The image's origin point (0,0) is 5 mm from the media edge. If the requested page size is the same width as the roll, 10 mm of the image will be clipped.

If the media runs out while making a print, the whole page is printed when a new roll is installed.

Any size media roll is fully printable up to the width of the roll, minus the side margins (totalling 10 mm). This illustration shows a 36-inch media roll with the maximum width image.

• Hint: If you have files that do not set the page size, set the printer's default media size in the front panel.

Cut-sheets	From: To:	Custom Arch E	175 mm x 175 mm 914 x 1219 mm	7 x 7 in. 36 x 48 in.
Roll Media	Width From: To:		305 mm 914 mm	12 in. 36 in.

Because the printer has been designed for wide-format printing, you will get the best results when you use cut-sheet media that is at least B-size (11 x 17 in., 279 x 432 mm) and media rolls at least 420 mm (16.5 in.) in width. Although the drivers allow you to select ANSI A, A4, Arch A, and custom page sizes, you cannot select them as the default in the front panel. You may experience more frequent media skewing or jams with the smaller media sizes.

Note: Image orientation refers only to how the image appears on the media relative to the media's long or short edge. It does not refer to how the media is loaded into or fed through the printer.

---

1. Portrait: Top of the image aligns with the media's short edge.

2. Landscape: Top of the image aligns with media's long edge.

3. Rotated Landscape: Top of the image aligns with media's long edge.

Hints

• Using 90° or 270° rotation with smaller page sizes on larger roll media uses less media. For instance, an ANSI B (11 x 17 in.) image uses 6 inches less media when it is rotated 90° or 270°.

• Cut-sheet media can be fed with the long edge first, with rotation set to 90° or 270°; however, do not use Page Centering or much of your image will not print.

1. You can select Manual Feed in the printer driver. You can also feed the cut-sheet media as it is needed, without selecting Manual Feed in the driver.

2. Unload any roll media by lifting the latch on the top cover. Open the paper roll cover to rewind the media completely onto the roll.

   

   ---

   Note: If the printer senses that roll media is installed (it looks to see if any media is covering a sensor located under the paper roll cover), it may not print the correct image area.

   ---

3. Close the paper roll cover.

4. Lower the top cover latch.

5. Orient the media so that the print side is facing up.

   

6. To avoid fingerprints and smears, hold the media by its outer edges and feed it over the top of the closed paper roll cover.

7. Align the media's right-hand edge with the guide line on the printer. Insert the media until it stops, plus a little more to make it buckle slightly. This ensures an even pressure and reduces the chance of media skewing. The printer picks the media in approximately one second.

   The front panel displays this message after it has processed a job:

   

   ---

   Note: On a network where the printer is usually using roll media, select Manual Feed in the driver, wait for the front panel to display this message, then unload the roll media and load the cut-sheet. If cut-sheet media is usual or if the printer is connected to a single computer, you can load the cut-sheet media at any time after the roll media is unloaded.

   ---

8. Press the front panel's Continue button; the printhead begins printing. Wait until the printer ejects the first sheet before inserting another sheet.
