If the printer is equipped with the optional Rotating Media Hub, it can
accept two different core sizes: 3.0” (76mm) or 1.5” (38mm). When using
1.5” core media, first remove the 3.0” hub by grasping it and then pulling
firmly out and off. Store the removed hub in a safe place for future use.

backstop when loading.
