Functionality

The main function of the ALX 73x is printing and dispensing self-adhesive labels. This
function is performed by a printing [2C] and a dispensing [2B] module that will be re-
ferred to below by the shortened form printer and dispenser.
The printer and dispenser work largely independently of each other. The only informa-
tion exchanged between the units relates to ready for operation status and error states
that occur. These units have their own control unit, firmware and control panel. To be
able to operate the machine, the two units must be set up separately from each other.
In some cases the same settings will have to be made twice (for example entering the
label length).
The labels are not dispensed immediately after printing. Instead they are buffered in
a loop where they are kept under tension by the dancer unit [2D].
