  • Core Adapters for Wide Format Inkjet Printers

Do you offer core adapters?

Wide format inkjet printers have a spindle that holds the roll of media in place when printing. The spindles come in two sizes: 2 inches and 3 inches. The “core” of a roll of inkjet media is the cardboard cylinder upon which the media is rolled.

If your printer has a 2-inch spindle, you will need a core adapter in order to load inkjet media that has been rolled on a 3-inch core.

Newer models of HP, Canon and Epson printers come with core adapters. If you have lost those adapters we can provide them to you. Even with core adapters, older CAD/technical printers cannot use media that comes on a 3-inch core because the diameter of the roll is too large to fit on the printer.
