User's Manual—SNAP™ 700 Printer
3.4 Using Pre-Printed Stock
When using pre-printed or die-cut stock, the printer must detect a sense mark on
the stock in order to print in the proper place.
The SNAP 700 printer comes with a through-hole sensor standard. The
•
sensor, mounted in the Sensor Module, will detect a hole or slot any
location across the width of the stock. Adjusted the sensor position to the
hole or slot to register.
The printer also comes with top reflective sensor standard. This sensor,
•
built into the same through-hole sensor, detects a black sense mark
printed on the top side of the stock.
The bottom reflective sensor is also standard on the SNAP 700. This
•
sensor is built into the through-hole sensor and will detect a black sense
mark printed on the bottom of white tape or tag stock.
Two contrast sensors are options. Both are dimensionally identical and
•
use a fiber-optic pickup tube mounted in the up-right frame with the tip
protruding into a slot in the left guide shaft. The contrast sensor detects
most sense marks. The color/contrast sensor detects colored and more
difficult sense marks.
The fiber-optic pickup tube is moveable and will detect sense marks
•
across the entire width of the supply. Refer to appendix 7 for instructions
on teaching these sensors.
