ARGHHH !!! Dumb Fkckng design on our big printer!
We have a 60 inch wide printer that came with a take up winder as part of the printer. If you actually read the manual it wants you to feed out almost three feet of paper to tape it up to the spool before you start printing. Now the paper is 60 inches or five feet wide and they want me to waste three feet of it. 15 sq feet of paper for the trash can. That is great if you sell paper but sucks for the consumer.
Anyway on top of that stupid design is that if everything is not set up just right the take up spool just sits there doing nothing so you have to manually twist the paper take-up or let it pile up on the floor. When the print job is done it just comes up and says take up error, set up paper take-up properly. There is no reset for that error at all except turn the printer off. If you don't remove that paper first off the printer will start with the same error. Once you have turned the printer off it no longer knows how long the roll of paper is so it assumes it is a new roll.
Very poor design on an otherwise great printer.
