Printing with Externally Mounted Roll Media

The G-Series printer accommodates externally  mounted roll media similar to the printer’s 
support of fan-fold media. The printer requires the media roll and stand combination to have a 
low initial inertia to pull the media off the roll. The G-Series motor has 30% more torque than 
the Zebra 2800 Series desktop printers to provide improved media handling and speed. 

Zebra at this time does not offer an external media option for the G-Series printer.

Externall y Mounted Roll Media Consi derations:

• The media ideally should enter the printer directly behind the printer through the fan-fold 

media slot in the rear of the printer. See 

 for media 

loading. 

• Lower the print speed to decrease the chance of motor stalls. The roll ty pically  has the 

highest inertia when trying to start the roll moving. Larger media roll diameters require the 
printer to have more torque applied to get the roll moving.

• The media should move smoothly  and freely. The media should not slip, skip, jerk, bind 

and then move, etc. when mounted on your media stand.

• The printer should not touch the media roll.

• The printer should not slip or lift up off the operating surface.
