Abstract
According to an example, a media loading device may comprise a motor and a leading-edge sensor. The motor may rotate a media roll having a leading-edge in a winding direction and unwinding direction, the motor being controlled by a processor. The leading-edge sensor may comprise a pivot arm and a detecting element. The pivot arm may contact the media roll and the detecting element may issue a leading-edge presence signal to the processor upon contact between the detecting element and the leading-edge occurs.
