Loading Label Or Tag Media - Xerox QLS-8100XE Operation & Setup Manual

Loading Label or Tag Media

The QLS-8100 Xe is capable of printing on a wide variety of media types and
sizes and is designed to accept media up to a 12" OD (outside diameter) roll
capacity on a 3" ID (inside diameter) core.
The QLS-8100 Xe positions the printed image correctly by utilizing either a
transmissive or reflective sensor to detect the beginning of a label or tag. In
some applications, a continuous media without notches or reflective marks
can be used, and the length of the printed image is dictated by software.
When using the transmissive method of sensing, the media should have at
least a 0.125" (3 mm) gap or notch. When using a reflective sensing method,
the media should have a 0.078" (2 mm) solid black reflective mark on the
back that extends a minimum of 0.5" (12 mm) from the inside edge of the
media.
As an aid, a threading diagram showing the media path is printed on the
center plate of the printer.
To load label or tag media:
1 Lift the printer's cover.
2 Flip each Print Station Lift Lever counterclockwise to open the
printheads.
