Operating Environment

Your Disc Publisher system should be used in a climate controlled environment free of dirt, dust, excess humidity, excessive heat or electro-magnetic interference. Your Disc Publisher system should be placed on a sturdy level surface –away from sources of vibration.

Allow at least four (4) inches of clearance around the sides and back of the unit for ventilation.

Power On

Before powering the system on, please ensure that if you intend to print then the printer is correctly installed. The printer should be powered on before the main system. After the power is turned on the Disc Publisher goes through a series of self-tests. If the Main Menu prompt does not appear within a minute or so see the Error Messages section of this manual.

Printer Setup

The TCP can optionally print to the discs –either before, or after duplication.

Ensure that the printer-mounting platform is secured to the top of the right hand side drive cube. Position the printer as per the instructions supplied with the mounting platform. Connect the printer to the system via the serial and parallel leads, and ensure that the printer is powered on at the same time, or before the main system. This will allow the system to correctly initialise the printer.

To configure the printer, go to the Setup Menu, then to the Printer Settings menu within the Setup Menu. Select the printer type by using the right arrow key, then press ENTER to save. Press the STOP key to get back to the main menu. It is important that the correct printer type is selected, otherwise the Disc Publisher will not printer correctly.

Once the parameters (above) are set, the final step to configuring the system for printing is to ensure that the printer is in position and the system is able to load discs.

To do this:

First place a disc into the input stack.

Go to the Utilities Menu Loader Utilities Loader Utilities Load –the Robotic should pick the disc up.

Enter the Utilities Menu Loader Utilities Loader Utilities Extended Diags section

Select Set Printer from the list

Open printer tray

Looking from above, use the left and right arrow keys to position the disc centered according to Fig. 6

If you are not able to position according to Fig 6, you may need to use the Base plate Adjustment knob. (see Fig 3)
