Basic Operations
Take-up device (Except Type B)
The take-up direction of media is selectable by using the switch of
the take-up device.
Lever in top position (REVERSE) :
The take-up device winds the media with the printed side facing
in.
Lever in middle position (OFF) :
The take-up device does not wind the media.
Lever in bottom position (FORWARD) :
The take-up device winds the media with the printed side facing
out.
Setting the torque limiter
The take-up device is provided with a torque limiter.
The take-up torque can be adjusted with the torque limiter.
(The torque limiter is set at the maximum value when shipped from the factory.)
If the tension is too strong to use a thin sheet of media, lower the take-up torque with the torque limiter.
• Clockwise turn : Increases torque (a heavy and thicker media such as tarpaulin or the like)
• Counterclockwise turn : Decreases torque (For light media)
• When the torque limiter is adjusted too weak ;
The media can not be taken up firmly.
• When the torque limiter is adjusted too strong ;
The slack may occur depending on the media and cause influence on the image quality.

torque
100% of the maximum
torque value.
