The thermal transfer mechanism is only available as a factory-
installed option. It allows the use of both direct thermal and
thermal transfer supplies.
The EasyCoder F2 comes with either a short side door, which
only covers the print mechanism or with a long side door, which
encloses the entire media compartment. The long side door has
a slot for external media supply. The long side door is generally
illustrated throughout this manual, but pictures of the short side
door can be found at the start of this chapter and in Chapter 4.
The integral liner takeup unit is an optional device for peel-off
(self-strip) operation, which means the labels are separated from
a liner (backing paper) after printing and the liner is wound up
on an internal hub. The unit also includes a guide shaft. Peel-off
cannot be combined with Quick-Load guides, see below.
The rotating media supply hub is designed to fi t media roll cores
with an internal diameter of 38-40 mm (1.5 inch). The hub can
be fi tted in the same positions as the supply roll post, see Chapter
2. Being factory installed, the position of the media supply hub is
not intended to be changed by the operator.
The 3-inch/76 mm adapter is used with a rotating media supply
hub and makes it possible to use media rolls with 3 inch/76
mm inner diameter cores. The adapter is pressed onto the media
supply hub and secured by a screw. The 3-inch adapter is not
used with a media supply roll post.
The Label Taken Sensor (LTS) is a photoelectric sensor that
enables the printer's fi rmware to detect if the latest printed label,
ticket, tag, etc. has been removed before printing another copy.
