9820/9830/9835 Service Manual

SENSOR SETUP WITH VERSION 5.2 OR GREATER

Manufacturing sets all three sensors before a printer is shipped. Service needs to adjust the sensor if a sensor component fails in the field or for specific customer supplies. Use Sendfile Version 2.21 (or greater) to set the sensor values. The three sensors are: aperture (center), black mark (center), and die cut (edge).

WARNING

You must follow these steps exactly. Failure to do so may cause the printer to lock up and not be able to recover.

1.Set switch on bottom row, position #3 (on CPU board) to diagnostic mode.

2.Remove any supply from printer.

3.Close the printhead.

4.Make sure printer is turned OFF.

5.Connect the correct printer voltage (115 or 230).

6.Connect the serial cable to printer and computer.

7.Start Sendfile version 2.21 (or greater).

8.Turn on printer. Press Clear if error 792 is displayed.

9.Press D to go into diagnostics.

10.For standard 9820/9830/9835 printers, set print contrast to 2.50 (+/- .02). For linerless 9830, set print contrast to 1.25 (+/-.02).

11.Press X for sensor adjustments.

12.Press C to get to the screen on the right-hand side. It should show version 5.0 at the top right and the center should show

aperture die cut black mark. Toggle C until you see this screen.

13.Press S, this saves the virgin settings.

14.Press D to go into diagnostics.

15.Press X for sensor adjustments.

16.Press C to get to the screen on the right-hand side. It should show version 5.0 at the top right and the center should show

aperture die cut black mark. Toggle C until you see this screen.

To set/adjust the aperture (center) sensor:

17.Remove supplies (if any are loaded) and close printhead.

18.Press 1 to set aperture sensor.

19.Press A to automatically set adjustment. The ideal setting is 4.00. The acceptable range is +/- 0.10. The word “Calibrating” appears on the screen. The process is complete when “Calibrating” disappears.

To set/adjust the die cut (edge) sensor:

20.Load a minimum of 4-inch long die cut liner stock, with the labels removed. Close printhead.

21.Press 2 to set the die cut sensor.

22.Press A to automatically set adjustment. The ideal setting is 4.00. The acceptable range is +/- 0.10. The word “Calibrating” appears on the screen. The process is complete when “Calibrating” disappears.

To set/adjust the black mark (center) sensor:

23.Remove the liner stock from the printer.

24.Load a minimum of 4-inch long piece of tag stock into printer. Make sure the black mark is not over the center sensor. Close the printhead.

25.Press 3 to set the black mark sensor.

26.Press A to automatically set adjustment. The ideal setting is 4.00. The acceptable range is +/- 0.10. The word “Calibrating” appears on the screen. The process is complete when “Calibrating” disappears.

27.Press S to save the adjustments.

The printer displays 909. Turn off the printer. Wait three seconds and turn the printer back on.

POWER UP SENSOR

RECOGNITION

During power up initialization the software checks a reserved area in flash to see if the printer has the V5.2 sensor system hardware installed. If it does then the V5.2 sensing is activated. If not then the daughter board is checked to see if the model switch is set to the 9835 sensing system. If no daughter board is installed, then the 9820/9830 sensor system control software is enabled. For the 9820/30 and for the M9835 the selectable modes are transmissive, reflective, and non-index (continuous) which currently exists in these models.
