HP Designjet Z6100 Printer Series - Quick Reference Guide

Handle the paper
Load a roll onto the spindle
1.
Make sure that the printer wheels are locked (the brake lever is pressed down)
to prevent the printer from moving.
2.
Remove the first end of the spindle from the right side of the printer, and then
move the spindle to the right in order to extract the other end. Do not insert your
fingers into the spindle supports during the removal process.
The spindle has a hub at each end to keep the roll in position. Remove the blue
hub at the left end to mount a new roll. The hub slides along the spindle to hold
rolls of different widths.
Slide the lever-lock on the blue spindle hub to the unlocked position and remove
the hub (1) from the left end of the spindle.
3.
Rest the roll of paper that you want to load on the take-up reel deflector. The
roll might be long and heavy, and you might need two people to handle it.
4.
Slide the spindle into the roll. Make sure that no space exists between the roll
and the fixed hub at the right end of the spindle.
Make sure that the paper will wind off the roll in the correct direction. If it does
not, remove the spindle from the roll, turn the roll 180° and rest it on the
deflector. Then slide the spindle into the roll.
