W-MD-4 Media Advance/Drive Too
Slow
Media advance motor is too slow. Determine the cause of the drag on
the media advance servo motor. Lis-
ten for unusual noises coming from
the grit roll shaft which might indi-
cate sticking or binding. Advance the
media with a supply loop in the
media supply to eliminate media
supply spool tension problems. As a
last resort, disengage the motor from
the grit roll shaft gear and attempt a
media advance. The motor encoder
will still report that the media is
moving, and with no load the motor
should easily reach the desired
speed.
