Loading Media

Follow the loading procedures found in the QLn Series, QL 420 or P4T User’s Guide. Note that if you are using Fanfold media, you should install the Fanfold Spacer (p/n BA16625-1) between the printer’s media supports. The Spacer is included with the MM4 Mobile Mount Kit.

CAUTION: The Mobile Mount is designed for a maximum loading of 12 lbs [5.4kg] including the weight of media. Ensure no extra items are suspended from the Printer, the Mobile Mount Bracket of the Fanfold bin.

Printer Removal:

There is no need to remove the printer from the Mobile Mount during normal use and cleaning. All access doors and controls can be reached with the printer secured in the mount.

To remove the printer for servicing or repairs:

Unplug the power cable and the data I/O cable (if installed.)

Remove the mounting screws and their associated hardware. You can access the mounting screws through clearance holes in the Mobile Mount bracket.

Final Connections

If you are communicating data to the QLn420, QL 420 or P4T with a cable you must connect a “Data I/O” cable between the terminal and the printer. If desired, you can use one of the supplied cable clamps and a #6-32 x 1/4” screw to hold the cable in position. Consult the factory for information on the various I/O data cables offered by Zebra for use with a variety of widely used terminals.

NOTE: This unit was tested with shielded cables on the peripheral devices. Shielded cables must be used with the unit to insure compliance.

DC/DC Module Location

Locate the DC/DC Module in a location convenient to the printer. Follow these guidelines:

Select a location in the vehicle that will avoid personal contact in case of an accident.

Place the Module so that you can easily unplug the charger’s output cable from the printer.

Route the Module’s output cable to prevent undue strain being placed on the connection to the printer.

Make sure that cable routing does not invite damage to the cable.

RCLI DC/DC module series: Secure the module with #6 (3mm) hardware using the mounting flanges molded into the module cover. Insure that the mounting hardware will not become loose due to vibration by using locking hardware or prevailing torque fasteners.
