Installing and Using Options

Roll paper holder

The optional roll paper holder (C811141) allows you to use your printer with 216 mm (8.5 inch) roll paper like that used with telex machines. This option is not available in all countries.
Follow these steps to install and use the roll paper holder:
Turn off the printer.
Slide the edge guide all the way to the left, and facing the back of the printer, slide both sprocket units all the way to the right.
Position the roll paper holder beneath the printer as shown below. Fit the two holes in the roll paper holder base under the two positioning pegs on the bottom of the printer. Gently lower the printer so the positioning pegs slide into the holes.
Caution:
Be careful to avoid dropping the roll paper holder when lifting the printer. Only the printer’s weight holds it in place.
Cut the leading edge of the roll paper straight across. Slide the roll paper holder shaft through the center of the paper roll.
Set the shaft and paper roll onto the roll paper holder. Load the roll so that paper feeds from the top of the roll and the edge of the roll paper passes the tension lever.
Turn on the printer and make sure that the single-sheet feeding is selected as described in Selecting a Paper Source.
Bring the leading edge of the paper up over the paper path guide and insert it into the printer path until you feel resistance. The printer loads roll paper automatically.

Removing roll paper

Roll paper cannot be fed backward. To remove roll paper, Cut the paper behind where it feeds into the printer. Press the Load/Eject button to eject the remaining paper.

Print server

You can use this printer as a network printer by installing the EpsonNet 802.11b/g Wireless and 10/100 Base Tx Ext. Print Server (C82437*) in the printer’s parallel interface port. See the Administrator’s Manual packaged with this option for instructions on installation and use.
