Unit 4: Operation

CUTTER SENSOR POSITIONING

The cutter assembly has dual adjustable sensors and is designed to permit lateral movement of the sensor assembly to accomdate multiple media types. To position the sensor, loosen its set screw and move the sensor assembly along the incremented scale to the correct position so that it aligns with its reference mark on the media and then retighten the set screw. Then select which of the dual sensors is also applicable to the media of use.

NOTE: In order for the sensor to function properly, it must be correctly positioned and the switch properly set for the applicable media. If the cutter assembly still does not operate correctly, the sensor’s sensitivity may require adjustment. Refer to the Maintenance Unit for instructions on sensor sensitivity adjustment.

If the media was incorrectly positioned following sensor adjustment, press the FEED key to reposition. If the power was removed while printing, the media may be incorrectly positioned when power is restored and may print several blank tags. Press the START/STOP key to pause the print job and switch off power. When power is restored, the printer will correctly position the tags.
