Alternating current To indicate on the rating plate that the equipment is suitable for alternating current only; to identify relevant terminals.3 Notes on Use Notes on printing and the paper used (1) Printing at a high rate might result in unclear printing. If this problem occurs, adjust the printing rate. Alternatively, adjust the print speed and print density so that there are no blurs. (See Examples (1) and (2) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer.") (2) Printing characters from a non-standard character set e.g. in a thin serif font will result in the characters appearing very faint. Use a bold sans serif font. (3) For quality printing that is free from uneven spacing and condensed or elongated printing after paper is cut or printing is paused, resume printing following a paper feed of at least 1 mm (8 dots). (4) If the data transfer rate is too low, serial printing may result in uneven print density (vertical white marks may appear on printouts) because of repeated printing and pausing. If priority is placed on print quality, use batch printing mode. (See Example (8) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer.") (5) The printer shipped from the factory is preset to the darkest print density (130%). If this setting is inappropriate, specify a lighter print density. (See Example (1) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer.") (6) If roll paper with an outside core diameter of other than 32 mm is used, the paper-near-end detection accuracy deteriorates. If roll paper with an outside core diameter of less than 32 mm is used, a transport error may occur when the cutter cuts the paper in full cutting mode and reaches the core. (7) Since the difference in hue between red and black or blue and black may not be noticeable when two-color thermal paper is used, be sure to confirm in advance the color of the printed characters. (8) When roll paper with a width of 83 mm is used, characters that are too close to the (left or right) edge of the paper may not be printed because of inaccuracies in tracking. Be sure to set a margin of sufficient width. (9) Do not switch from narrow paper to wide paper (e.g., from paper that is 58 mm wide to paper that is 80 mm wide) during operation. When narrow paper is used, the thermal head area where there is no paper comes in direct contact with the platen roller, and the resulting wear on the head may lead to a deterioration in print quality. Similarly, if the paper width is changed, the cutter blade will cut at a location that has no paper, and the resulting wear on the blade may lead to improper cuts. To switch from narrow paper to wide paper, exchange the thermal head and the cutter blade.4 (10) If label paper is used, adhesive matter adhering to the cutter blade, thermal head, paper transport, or paper holder may cause a cutting error, print error, or paper transport error. Remove adhesive matter periodically (typically on a monthly basis). (11) If paper is left inserted in the printer for a long time, the paper may become deformed and result in thin (faint) printed characters. Before starting printing in such cases, feed the paper by 20 to 30 mm. (12) If the type of paper used is other than the recommended ones, the print quality and thermal head life are not guaranteed. In particular, if the type of thermal paper contains Na+, K+, or Cl-, the thermal head life may be significantly shortened. (13) When using full-sheet label paper, note that the paper may adhere to the head and cause noise if the top margin is less than 3 mm. You should therefore set the top margin to 3 mm or a greater value when printing on this type of paper.5 Notes on using the cutter (1) Note also that the paper length used per transaction must be at least 15mm. (2) The maximum number of successive cuts by the cutter is 30 cuts per minute (at least two seconds per cut). Using the cutter at a higher rate may cause a failure. (3) Do not pull the paper during cutting. Doing so may cause a paper jam or another problem. (4) Each time that 30 sheets of paper are printed, the paper must be removed. Otherwise, the printed paper remains in the automatic cutter section and may cause a cutting error.

Notes on printing of barcodes and two-dimensional codes (1) Barcodes that are rotated 90 degrees or aligned vertically when printed may not be readable. Verify the readability in advance. (2) Printouts on label paper or thick paper may contain blurs, depending on humidity and other environmental conditions. Adjust the print speed and print density appropriate for the type of paper used, and verify the readability in advance. (See Examples (1) and (2) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer.") (3) The recognition ratio of two-dimensional codes (QR codes, PDF417, DataMatrix, MaxiCode and RSS) varies depending on various factors, including the module width, print density, ambient temperature, thermal roll paper type, and reader performance. Adjust the print speed and print density appropriate to printing two-dimensional codes, and verify the readability in advance. (See Examples (1) and (2) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer.") (4) The paper transport accuracy may be negatively affected by printing a barcode in the Upper margin at the beginning of paper transport or in the Lower margin at the end of paper transport. Verify the readability before starting printing.6 Notes on using the printer through the USB interface (1) The printer must be connected directly to the host computer. (2) Before starting printing, turn on the power to the printer. (3) If a printer error occurs during printing, recover the printer from the error, and then retry printing. (4) The host computer should not be set to any of the following modes: standby, sleep, suspend, and pause. If the host computer or printer does not work normally after the host computer returns to normal operation mode from one of the above modes, disconnect the USB cable once and then reconnect it, or turn off the printer power switch once and then turn on the switch again. If the host computer or printer cannot be restored to normal operation after the cable is reconnected or power switch is turned on again, restart the host computer. (5) The USB hub function cannot be used when the power to the printer is off. (6) If a peripheral device connected to the USB hub is not recognized, perform one of the following operations: - Disconnect the USB cable from the peripheral device once, and then reconnect it. - Connect the peripheral device to the other port of the USB hub. (7) The operation of connected USB devices is not guaranteed. Before using a USB device, verify its operation yourself. Note : Do not turn off the power to the printer during printing. If you inadvertently turn off the power to the printer during printing and the printer then fails to work normally, restart the host computer.7 Note on installation (1) The printer must be used indoors. If used outdoors, the printer may fail because of dust.

Note on the modular connector (1) This product uses a modular connector as a dedicated connector for the cash drawer or customer display terminal. The connector must not be connected with a connector that leads to a public switched line or other such destination.

Note on using the printer in special mode (1) If a large diameter roll is used, paper may fold or unusual noises may be heard. To prevent these problems, use a roll with a small diameter (50mm or less). If a Windows PC is used as the host system, a utility program can be used to make settings.

The end of the paper must also not be folded back. Note: Do not use rolls that have rough sides or sides from which pieces of paper extrude. Using such rolls could cause a printer failure.15 (2) Fanfold paper - Maximum stack height: 180 mm or less - Fold length: 76.2 to 203.2 0.5 mm (3 to 8 inches) - Perforation specifications: 3 (cuts):1 (tie)16 3-4. Paper Types The printer supports the following paper types: a. Plain paper (including full-sheet label paper) b. Black mark paper c. Die-cut label paper (including die-cut label paper with black marks) When using black mark or die-cut paper, the printer can move the paper to the start position, cutting position, peeling-off position, or tear-off position according to the paper layout settings. To use this function, provide the printer with paper layout information, including the paper type and size, before printing. Use of the printer without these settings may result in a paper layout error or unexpected printouts. Therefore, set the paper layout when you: (1) use label paper for the first time, (2) change the paper type (plain paper, black mark paper, or die-cut label paper), (3) change the paper size, or (4) switch to die-cut label paper of the same size as the current paper but with a different base color or other specification. You can set the paper layout automatically or manually. For details, see Chapter 6, "Setting Up the Printer."17 Note: Die-cut label paper is a type of label paper with a label sheet already cut into segments of a certain size. Note: Full-sheet label paper is a type of label paper with an uncut label sheet that allows users to cut to any length by using a cutter. Note: The same settings can be used when printing on full-sheet label paper or plain paper (with no black marks). Note: When printing on die-cut label paper with black marks, be careful regarding the print position and cut position. Printing on base paper, which is not covered with label sheet, may damage the thermal head. Note: Note on preprinting on the recording side of thermal paper Using thermal paper whose recording side is preprinted may result in the thermal head sticking to the surface of thermal paper, causing a print error. Therefore, you should avoid using this type of thermal paper as much as possible. If such use is unavoidable, confirm beforehand that use of the paper does not cause print errors, thin printing or other problems.3-4-1. Requirements for full-sheet label paper To prevent adhesive matter from sticking to the print head or paper guide, use label paper that has undergone margin removal as shown below. (Margin removal means cutting the margins at the time of manufacturing.)

If a type of paper other than a recommended one is used, head damage, printing irregularities, or similar problems may occur. Note : To use two-color thermal paper, set the print color to two colors from the printer setup menu or using the setup tool contained on the CD-ROM provided with the printer. (See Example (3) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer.")

• By setting the appropriate property (use Color on the Graphics tab) for printing with this printer driver, you can easily print in two-color mode without having to change the printer setup. Note : Ruled lines or characters containing fine lines (e.g. a serif typeface) tend to have dull colors when they are printed on two-color thermal paper. For printing on two-color thermal paper, a thick font (e.g., a sans serif font) is recommended.22 Note : Red or blue printing on two-color thermal paper has an inferior preservation characteristic that is equivalent to that of normal thermal paper. Note : Printouts on label paper or thick paper may contain blurs or voids, depending on the humidity and other environmental conditions. Adjust the print speed and print density as appropriate for the type of paper used. (See Examples (1) and (2) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer.") In particular, note that the paper transport accuracy may be negatively affected by printing a barcode in the top margin at the beginning of paper transport or in the Lower margin at the end of paper transport. Note : The outside core diameter is assumed to be 32 mm. If roll paper with an outside core diameter of other than 32 mm is used, the paper-near-end detection accuracy deteriorates. Note : If roll paper with an outside core diameter of less than 32 mm is used, a transport error may occur when the cutter cuts the paper in full cutting mode and reaches the core.23

Top part of the top cover Bottom part of the cover release lever

(2) When manipulating the top cover, note that the cover seems to lock in position before it is open completely. Make sure that the cover is really open completely as shown in the picture below.

Note: If the top cover is not open completely during maintenance, it may close inadvertently. 315-2. Setting the Paper Width Separator A is set to the position for a paper width of 70 mm at the time of shipment from the factory. - By adjusting the position of separator A, you can use paper with a width within a range of 70 to 25.4 mm. (See "Section 5-2-1. Attaching separator A.") - To use paper with a width of 80 mm, remove separator A. (See "Section 5-2-2. Removing separators A and B.") - To use paper with a width of 83 mm, remove separators A and B. (See "Section 5-2-2. Removing separators A and B.") Note : When replacing the separator, set a paper width appropriate to the print area, referring to "Special Modes." (See Examples (7) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer.") Note : If the printer is using narrow paper (e.g., width of 70 mm), do not replace the paper with wide paper (e.g., width of 80 mm). In printing with narrow paper, part of the thermal head (the part where there is no paper) comes in direct contact with the platen roller. The resulting wear may lead to a deterioration in print quality. Similarly, if the paper width is changed such that the cutter blade cuts at a location that has no paper, the resulting wear on the blade may lead to improper cuts. Note : Do not touch the thermal head except during cleaning. Doing so may result in damage from static electricity. Thermal head

325-2-1. Mounting separator A Holding separator A at locations a (lever) and b, slide the lever to the desired position. Then, set the separator in place. Use the scale as necessary. Note: Separator A must be set in place with an allowance of about 0.5 mm for the maximum paper width.

335-2-2. Removing separators A and B (1) Removing separator A While holding part b on separator A with part a (lever) pushed in the arrow-indicated direction, lift it to disengage the lock, and then remove the rear bearing section.

Note : Push the separator down until it engages with an audible click, and confirm that the top of the separator is aligned horizontally.

375-3. Loading Paper 5-3-1. Loading roll paper (1) When using a new paper roll, remove the glued portion of the paper as well as the part to which adhesive tape is affixed. Note : Since the glued portion of the paper should not be printed on, remove about one turn (about 40 cm) of the roll paper from the beginning so that none of the remaining paper has glue on it. Any adhesive or other matter remaining from the glue may adhere to the thermal head and cause a problem, such as voids on printouts. Therefore, do not forget to remove the glued portion of the paper.

(2) From the front of the printer, pull out the end of the paper as shown below. Front cover of the printer.

Note: Pull the end of roll paper until it comes out from the front of the cover. 38Note : Before loading a new roll, make sure that an old core does not remain in the roll holder. Leaving an old core will cause a paper-near-end error condition.

Roll paper inserted upside down Paper not protruding from the front cover

Not e : The roll paper mus t have no deformities. Using roll paper such as that shown in the figure below may cause a paper jam, uneven printing, or other printing problem.

Note : If the loaded roll paper is loose (slack) as shown below, take up the slack before printing on the paper. Printing on roll paper that is loose may cause a paper jam, uneven printing, or other printing problem, which will prevent the printer from detecting paper near end conditions.

395-3-2. Loading fanfold paper (1) Load the fanfold paper with its thermo sensitive side facing up. (2) Open the top cover, and then pass the fanfold paper through the paper feed section at the rear of the printer.

Load the paper with its thermo sensitive side facing up.

Note: Pull the end of fanfold paper until it comes out from the front of the cover.

Note: Fanfold paper must be placed at least 20 mm from the rear of the printer. When this requirement is satisfied, paper can be stacked up to 180 mm (see Figure 1). When fanfold paper is placed in contact with the rear of the printer, paper can only be stacked up to 80 mm (see Figure 2). Note: Also, the paper location must be confined to an area between the left and right edges of the printer.

41Note: When using perforated paper, make sure that the printer does not cut the paper at perforations or in an area that is 0 to 15 mm in front of perforations (as viewed from the paper feed direction). Otherwise, incorrect cutting may result. (See Figure 3.) Note: When using perforated paper, be sure to prevent paper from being caught, paper jams, paper from being cut during transport, and other such problems. These problems may shorten the life of the thermal head.

Figure 3 Area that is 0 to 15 mm in front of perforations (cutting prohibited in this area) Fold at perforations Paper feed direction

Note: Should you find that the blinking ERROR lamp annoys you, perform printer setup to change PNE DETECT to DISABLE. (See Example (6) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer.") 425-4. Setting the Paper Guide When the print length per print session is longer than 50 mm, use the printer with the paper guide open. When it is equal to or less than 50 mm, use the printer with the paper guide closed.

For print length equal to or less than 50 mm: Use the printer with the paper guide closed.

For print length longer than 50 mm: Use the printer with the paper guide open.

435-5. Closing the Top Cover Place the paper in the correct orientation, and carefully close the top cover.

Top cover Release lever Press here

Note : Place the paper in t he correct orientation. If the top cover is closed while the paper is not correctly in place, a paper jam or misaligned printing might occur. Note : To close the top cover, press it down near its center (the location pointed at in the figure below) until you hear the lock engage. If the cover is not completely locked, printing might be impossible45

6. Setting Up the Printer

Introduction to printer setup procedures You can set the following items for this printer: (1) Paper type and paper layout - Die-cut label paper, black mark paper, or plain paper - Paper width and other paper layout information (2) Custom paper creation (3) Sensor adjustment (4) Print speed (5) Print density (6) Printer operation Item (1), (2) is a required setting. Items (3) to (6) are optional settings.

<Reference documents> The CD-ROM that comes with the printer contains some PDF-formatted online manuals. For details on how to install and use each of the software programs that come with the printer, see the following documents:

a. Plain paper (including full-sheet label paper) b. Black mark paper c. Die-cut label paper (including die-cut label paper with black marks)

When using black mark or die-cut paper, the printer can move the paper to the start position, cutting position, peeling-off position, or tear-off position according to the paper layout settings. To use this function, provide the printer with paper layout information, including the paper type and size, before printing. Use of the printer without these settings may result in a paper layout error or unexpected printouts. Therefore, set the paper layout when you: (1) use label paper for the first time, (2) change the paper type (plain paper, black mark paper, or die-cut label paper), (3) change the paper size, or (4) switch to die-cut label paper of the same size as the current paper but with a different base color or other specification. You can set the paper layout automatically or manually. The next and subsequent pages provide detailed information. Note: The paper layout must be set under the same temperature conditions as in the actual operating environment of the printer. Otherwise, the cutting position may be outside the base area for labels because of a temperature difference.

Note: - The printer provides a function that automatically detects the paper layout. This automatic layout detection function obtains fixed information on width settings. Therefore, OKI recommends that you manually specify these settings. Note: - There are two ways to manually set up the printer: (1) Paper information setting using the driver (2) Paper information setting using the utility47 6-1. Paper Information Setting Using the Driver Printer setup flow

6-4. Replacing paper The paper replacement procedure is as follows. Automatic layout detection <<Procedure>> (1) Turn off the printer power, and open the top cover. (2) Turn on the printer power. (3) Load the paper that you want to use into the printer. Leave the top cover open. (4) Press and hold down the FEED switch. The POWER and ERROR lamps blink alternately. Continue to hold down the FEED switch until the POWER and ERROR lamps blink at the same time. At this time, release the FEED switch. (5) Close the top cover. (6) The printer feeds the paper, automatically obtains paper information, and saves the information. Note: Automatic layout detection involves a paper feed of several tens of centimeters. This is normal operation.

Updating the layout information Re-specify paper information by following the procedure described in

Section 6-1-2, "Custom paper," or 6-2-2, "Setting detailed paper layout

information."65 6-5. Paper Layout Errors When using black mark or die-cut label paper, the printer monitors the paper length (L1) based on the set paper layout. If the detected paper length does not match the set paper length, a paper layout error occurs.

(1) Error when paper is being loaded Confirm that the paper being loaded is the same as the paper specified in the paper layout information for the printer. If not, replace the paper with paper that matches the paper layout information. (2) Error during printing If a paper layout error occurs during printing, open the top cover, check whether label peeling, a paper jam or other problem has occurred, reposition the paper, and then close the top cover. (3) Error when paper is being replaced Follow the procedure in "Section 6-4. Replacing paper."

Note: If the paper length (L1) of the loaded paper is 10% different from your specified paper length or that set through automatic detection, a paper layout error occurs.66 6-6. Adjusting Sensors

1) There are two ways to adjust sensors:

a. Automatic sensor adjustment (This mode is set at the time of shipment from the factory.) b. Manual sensor adjustment ■ Automatic sensor adjustment

1) With this mode enabled, the sensor is automatically adjusted in

parallel with automatic layout detection. This adjustment sets optimal values based on the measured sensor input level. Sensor adjustment values are not preset at shipping. However, when you load paper on the printer and initially power on the printer, the automatic layout detection function will set the sensor adjustment values.

1) You can start manual adjustment of a sensor by selecting the sensor in

sensor adjustment mode, which is a special mode. The printer prints instructions for operations. Adjust the sensor by following these instructions.

2) Automatic sensor adjustment is enabled at the time of shipment from

the factory. The printer as shipped need not be manually adjusted because sensors are automatically adjusted at the same time as automatic layout detection. Adjust sensors manually only if a paper layout error frequently occurs.67 6-7. Print Density Setting The printer can specify a print density for the paper to be used. The print density is preset to 130% at shipping. You can change this setting to the value appropriate for the paper to be used as described in Section 3-5, "Recommended Thermal Paper." There are three methods of changing the setting: (1) Using the Windows printer driver See "Section 4.4 [Graphics] Tab" in the Windows Driver User's Guide

(2) Using the printer utility See "Section 3.2.5 Customize Value" in the Utility User's Guide

(3) Setting up the printer Change the setting as described in Example (1) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer."

• If you have specified a print density using the Windows driver, the print density specified by the driver will be used for printing. (The print density specified by the driver takes precedence over print density specified by the utility.)68 6-8. Print Speed Setting There are three methods of changing the setting: (1) Using the Windows printer driver See "Section 4.4 [Graphics] Tab" in the Windows Driver User's Guide

(2) Using the printer utility See "Section 3.2.5 Customize Value" in the Utility User's Guide

(3) Setting up the printer Change the settings as described in Example (2) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer."

• If you have specified a print speed using the Windows driver, the print speed specified by the driver will be used for printing. (The print speed specified by the driver takes precedence over print speed specified by the utility.)

Note: The printer restricts the print speed when using paper with a width of 57 mm or less. Up to 260 mm/s for a paper width within a range of 83 to 58 mm Up to 180 mm/s for a paper width within a range of 57 to 38 mm Up to 80 mm/s for a paper width within a range of 37 to 25.4 mm69 6-9. Cutting Position Correction This printer allows you to correct (upward or downward) the top-of-form position, cut position, peeling-off position and tear-off position. Change the setting as required. You can use one of the following methods to change this setting. (1) Using the Windows printer driver See "Section 4.1 [Custom Paper] Tab" in the Windows Driver User's Guide

(2) Using the printer utility See "Section 4.3 Adjusting Cut Position or Tear Off Position" in the Utility User's Guide

6-10. Other Settings This printer allows you to specify whether to feed paper up to the top-of-form position at power-on and whether to cut paper upon the closing of the cover. There are two methods of changing the setting: (1) Setting up the printer Change the setting as described in Example (4) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer." (2) Using the printer utility See "Section 3.2.4 Memory Switch settings" in the Utility User's Guide

6-11. Initializing the Printer Setup Information You can disable the settings you specified on the printer and restore the default settings preset at shipping. Initialize the settings as described in Example 5) in Section 10-2, "Setting Up the Printer."7. Control Panel

17311. Regular Cleaning

Printed characters may not be completely formed if paper residue, dust, or a similar material is present. To ensure proper printing, remove any paper residue and dust on the paper holder, paper transport components, platen roller, and surface of the thermal head. Cleaning is required monthly. In particular, if the printer uses full-sheet label paper in full cutting mode, any adhesive matter adhering to the paper ejecting part of the paper guide may cause a paper ejection error. Using an alcohol solvent, remove adhesive matter periodically from the paper guide. - Recommended cleaning cycle: For a minimum cutting interval of 15 mm, clean the paper guide each time that printing on one or two rolls (about 5000 cuts) is completed. Note: Do not use a solvent other than ethyl or isopropyl alcohol.

11-1. Cleaning the Paper Holder and Paper Transport With a dry soft cloth, wipe the paper holder and paper transport to remove dust, paper particles, adhesive, and other foreign matter.

13-2. Cutter Specifications Cutting mode: Full cutting Note : For printing on label paper, use only partial cutting. If full cutting is used in such cases, paper cutting performance will deteriorate faster because of the greater adverse effect of adhesive matter. Note : Paper cutting performance may deteriorate faster with the use of label paper because of its adhesive matter. Clean the cutter blade periodically to remove the adhesive matter. Note : Full cutting may lead to irregularities at the center of the cutting surface. If paper fiber remains at these locations, this may eventually lead to incomplete cutting at these locations. Note : In full cutting mode, the printed paper must be removed each time that one sheet is printed. Otherwise, printed paper remains in the automatic cutter section and may cause a cutting error. Note : The maximum number of successive cuts by the cutter is 30 cuts per minute (at least two seconds per cut). Using the cutter at a higher rate may cause afailure.13-3. Paper Supply Specifications (1) Loading method: Rolls are loaded manually. (2) Paper near end: Detected when only a little paper is left. The outside core diameter <B> of roll paper is 32 mm. Paper thickness (m) Sensed diameter <A> (mm) Remaining paper length (m) 75 to 150 About 40 75 to 150

Note: The above values (i.e., sensed diameter, remaining paper length) are theoretical values. These values vary depending on actual conditions, including the paper roll condition and paper thickness. Note: The outside core diameter is assumed to be 32 mm. If roll paper with an outside core diameter of other than 32 mm is used, the paper-near-end detection accuracy deteriorates. Note: If roll paper with an outside core diameter of less than 32 mm is used, a transport error may occur when the cutter cuts the paper in full cutting mode and reaches the core.

21414-8. Setting the Roll Paper (1) Insert the paper roll to the included paper roll shaft core and set them in the large diameter paper roll unit.

Roll paper shaft Roll paper Note: To load a new roll paper, first remove the tape and the glued portion at the beginning of the roll. Note: The printer cannot print on the glued portion of the paper, so remove about one turn of the roll paper from the beginning. Any adhesive or other matter remaining from the glue may stick to the thermal head and cause a problem such as voids on printouts. For this reason, be sure to remove the glued portion of the paper. Note: There is a direction of the installation when the paper is installed. Please install it like the clause 14-8- (3). 215Note : The roll paper must have no deformities. Using roll paper such as that shown in the figure below may cause a paper jam, uneven printing, or other printing problem.

Note : If the loaded roll paper is loose (slack) as shown below, take up the slack before printing on the paper. Printing on roll paper that is loose may cause a paper jam, uneven printing, or other printing problem, which will prevent the printer from detecting paper near end conditions.

216(2) Set the paper width by positioning the partitions in the roll paper unit. [1] Orient the paper roll along the direction arrow A. [2] Loosen the knob screws front and back that fix the partition. [3] Align the partition to the width of the paper roll, and slide in the direction of the arrows B. [4] Fix the partition leaving a slight gap as shown in the diagram. Front: Leave a gap of one gradation on the scale between the partition and the paper roll, and then tighten the (front) knob screws to fix. Back : Leave a gap of one 1 to 3mm using the scale between the partition and the paper roll, and then tighten the (back) knob screws to fix.
