4 - INSTALLATION
4.1 - INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
The PTD55 is designed to be fixed in a bigger case or structure or another kind of appropriate
chassis. A wrong installation may cause many issues like paper jam, difficult maintenance of the printer,
difficulty in changing the paper, etc. Moreover, a correct installation can prevent the printer from being
damaged by external agents, such as weather or vandalism.
The basic points that a correct installation must follow are:
•
Smooth exit of the ticket. Prevent problems with static electricity due to the nature of the
used materials. Be sure to make a good earth connection.
•
Prevent final user's from accessing the printer outlet.
•
Allow enough room and accessibility to reach the maintenance procedure points in case it is
needed. Take notice all user accessible parts in the printer:
Printing Head
–
Paper box location.
–
Connectors.
–
Led and push-button.
–
•
Fix the PTD55 printer to the chassis by using four screws (Ø5mm maximum) as shown on
the pictures below. It is recommended to implement some system to allow the printer to be
moved backwards when accessing the printing head. Below it is shown how to fix the printer
onto a detachable or sliding tray or practice fixing slots on the supporting base, so that the
PTD55 can be moved backwards and forwards for easy maintenance.
