<High-speed, high-quality printing>

This printer can be used for high-speed high-quality printing thanks to its direct thermal method

and thermal transfer method that use a line thermal printhead together with its 32 bit RISC CPU

and its ‘history control IC’.

• It is easy to change the printer’s settings on the operation panel, thanks to its unique and

simple VuePrint menu system.

• Its high-lift printhead and mechanism means that media and ribbon can be loaded with

ease and it is constructed for easy thermal printhead cleaning, etc.

• Media width adjustment, media thickness adjustment, and media sensor adjustment can

all be made easily by the user using the colour-coded operator controls.

This printer contains both the Datamax® and Zebra® emulations and will automatically

detect the language using the Cross-EmulationTM feature.

An industry standard RS232 serial port and USB2.0 port are standard equipment, for quick

data transfer and printing.

Additional connectivity is available with an optional internally-housed IEEE1284 parallel port,

an Ethernet interface and a wireless LAN print server.

The auto-cutter and peeler units are designed so that they can be installed easily.

The adjustable media sensors - which allow the sensors to be positioned in dierent

locations across the media - are standard features making the printer ideal for use with

special media.

The interface, power switch etc. are installed towards the back and the top cover opens and

closes vertically so that the sides of the printer are not restricted.

Performing a self test print is an easy way to check on the state of printer

setting and printing quality. Install the media as explained in “Installing

the Media” and then operate the printer as follows.

 Case of label media

Turn on printer power while

pushing the FEED key. When the

PRINT LED has begun to ash

slowly, release the FEED key.

After it enters TEST MODE and

media has fed, two labels print

then printing stops.

To restart printing, press the

FEED key once more.

 Case of continuous media

Turn on printer power while

pushing the FEED key. When the

PRINT LED has stopped ashing

slowly and has begun to ash

rapidly, release the FEED key.

After it enters TEST MODE and it

prints then printing stops.

To restart printing, press the FEED key once more.

Media Adjustments

Using the Self Test Print shown above, you can make adjustments to the

printer settings such as media width and media thickness (printhead

pressure). The location of these two adjustments is explained in Chapter

3 and also shown on the labels on the printer’s mechanism.

The rst sample, left, shows an incorrectly set

“media thickness adjustment”. For standard label

media, it is recommended you set the blue dial

to the “0” position.

The second sample, left, shows an incorrectly set

“media width adjustment”. For 6-inch or 150mm

wide media, the adjuster should be set to the “9”

position on the blue dial.

The settings shown above are for general label

media and may not apply to specialist media.
