Adjusting the RP2 Potentiometer

 

 

 

 

Step

Procedure

 

 

 

 

1

Install the full-color ribbon in the printer.

 

 

 

2

Position the Magenta panel, from the supply spool, across the top of the Light

 

Emitting portion of the Ribbon Sensor Array. (This is the short metal bar

 

protruding from the rear chassis wall just to the left of the ribbon supply spool.)

 

 

3

Close the Printhead Assembly securely and leave the Top Cover open.

 

 

4

Locate the rectangular opening on the left side of the machine. Just inside the

 

opening are four small white switches aligned in a row vertically. The switches

 

are labeled 1 through 4; the top switch is number one.

 

 

 

5

Use the tip of the standard screwdriver to click switch number 1 towards the

 

rear of the printer; this turns the switch on.

 

 

 

6

Locate the Lid Switch at the top and middle of the printer, just to the rear of the

 

Printhead Assembly.

 

 

 

7

Use a piece of clear tape to secure the Lid Switch down.

 

 

 

8

Disconnect all cables from the back of the printer.

 

 

 

9

Place the note pad over the Printhead Assembly to shield the sensor array

 

from light.

 

 

 

 

10

Hold the on-line button down.

 

 

 

11

Plug in the power cable while continuing to hold the on-line button.

 

 

12

Release from the on-line button once the LED lights come on. You will notice

 

that one LED will be lit, either the on-line or the on/cancel.

 

 

13

Locate the RP2 Potentiometer on the right side of the printer, through the

 

opening in the middle.

 

 

 

14

Use the standard screwdriver to turn the RP2 potentiometer until both LEDs

 

are turned OFF.
