10.19.3 Ribbon Service

Transfer ribbon width:
Selection of the used transfer ribbon width (depending on printhead
either 53 mm, 107 mm or 128 mm).
Transfer ribbon:
Selection of the used transfer ribbon length (300 m, 450 m, 600 m,
900 m or 1000 m). With smaller ribbons, a higher number of cycles
can be reached. Standard, Fast and Low indicate the tightening force
with which the transfer ribbon is wound up.
Standard (Std) = used for normal transfer ribbon (for KCE
printheads).
Low = is selected if the transfer ribbon was torn in Standard mode or
the transfer ribbon can no longer be removed from the cassette. The
transfer ribbon is not accelerated as much as with Standard and
therefore it is also suitable when using thin transfer ribbon.
Fast = the transfer ribbon is accelerated faster and therefore a higher
number of cycles can be achieved. It can occur that the transfer
ribbon can no longer be removed from the cassette. To avoid this, an
optional cassette is available on request.
Maximum diameter for consumption display:
The maximum diameter of the consumption display is automatically
generated and set by selecting the transfer ribbon length. The transfer
ribbon diameter can also be measured and entered manually. The
consumption display is shown on the left side of the Home screen
from 0 ... 100 %.
NOTICE!
Depending on the transfer ribbon used, deviations may occur
in the determination. Depending on the thickness of the
transfer ribbon, the value must be increased or decreased.
Winding:
Selection of the coating side of transfer ribbon, either outside or
inside.
Ribbon prior warning: Before the end of transfer ribbon, a signal is
sent by the control output.
Ribbon prior warning diameter: Setting of transfer ribbon advance
warning diameter.
In case you enter a value in mm then a signal appears via control
output when reaching this diameter (measured at transfer ribbon roll).
Value range: 0 ... 255 mm
Ribbon prior warning mode:
Warning: When reaching the transfer ribbon advance warning
diameter, the corresponding I/O output is set.
Error: The printing system stops when reaching the transfer ribbon
advance warning diameter with the message 'too less ribbon'.
