Setting the Feed Path of the Transfer Ribbon

Transfer ribbon wrinkling can lead to print image errors. The transfer ribbon deflection (3) can be adjusted so as to prevent wrinkles.
Note!
A maladjustment of the head locking system may also cause ribbon wrinkling.

Note!
The adjustment is best carried out during printing.
Read current setting on the scale (1) and record if necessary.
Turn screw (2) with Allen key and observe the behavior of the ribbon.
In the + direction, the inner edge of the ribbon is tightened, and the outer edge is tightened in the - direction.

Printing Operation

Synchronization of the Paper Feed

After the label stock has been inserted, for peel-off or cutting mode a synchronization of the paper feed is required.
That way the first label, which is detected by the label sensor, will be transported to the print position and all labels in front will be fed out of the printer. So the synchronization avoids, that blank labels are peeled-off together with the first printed label or that the first cut label would be too long. Both effects can cause useless first labels.
Select to start the synchronization.
Remove the blank labels peeled-off or cut during the synchronization.

Note!
Synchronization is not necessary if the printhead was not opened between different print jobs, even if the printer was switched off.

Tear-off Mode

In tear-off mode, labels or continuous media are printed. After printing, the label strip can be separated by hand. The label printer must be equipped with a tear-off plate.

Peel-off Mode

In Peel-off mode, the labels are automatically peeled off the liner after printing and presented for removal. The liner is wound up by the internal rewinder. This mode is available only on the peel-off printer versions. The printer must be equipped with a dispense plate.
Attention!
Peel-off mode must be activated in the software.
This is done with the "P command" in the direct programming, Programming Manual.

• In the most simple case the peel-off mode can be controlled without optional device by the touchscreen display:
  Start a print job in peel-off mode.
  Start every peel-off cycle by pressing on the touchscreen display.
• When using the optional PS800 or PS900 the label in the peel position will be detected by an optical sensor. After the label has been removed the next label will be printed and fed to the peel position separate documentation.
• With the applicators S1000 and S3200 or the dispense module S5104 the labels can be applied to a product directly after printing separate documentation.

Internal Rewinding

The labels are wound up internally after printing with the carrier medium for later use. This mode is available only on the peel-off printer versions.
The label printer must be equipped with a rewind guide plate.

Suppressing Backfeed (SQUIX MT only)

Note!
Feeding back the material to the printhead in the cut mode or between print jobs is not allowed for SQUIX MT.
To avoid the backfeed:
In the printer driver menu General > Print Settings > Advanced Setup > Options

• deactivate the setting "Single buffer mode".
  or

For direct programming Programming Manual

• do not use the command O S.

Avoiding Loss of Material (SQUIX MT only)

Attention! Loss of material!
At SQUIX MT a media backfeed from the cutting edge to the printhead is not allowed due to the reliability of the media transport.
Therefore every interruption of the continuos print process has the following consequences:

• The print of the current label/section will be completed. The printed label will be fed through the cutter and will be cut. The media between printhead and cutter will remain blank.
• Upon resumption of printing the media between printhead and cutter will not be fed back. The print will be started at the media position currently laying under the printhead.
• Following blank sections are generated, which cannot be used.
• For operation with cutter the length of the blank section is at least 50 mm for continuos material. For structured media where the print image has to be synchronized to the media transport the loss of material can reach a length of more than 300 mm.

To minimize the loss of material it is necessary to avoid interruptions of the continuos print process.
Interrupt the print process with the pause key only if it is absolute necessary.
Avoid print jobs with a small amount of labels/sections, especially single prints.

Optimization of the Data Transfer
If sequent labels/sections contain differing information, the internal preparation of the second sections must be completed before the printing of the first section has been finished!
Otherwise the first section will be fed to the cutter without printing the next section. The print of the second section begins only after cutting off the first section.
Therefore it is necessary to minimize the data to be transferred. i.e. to avoid transferring complete label descriptions and to transfer the changing data only:
Activate In the printer driver menu General > Print Settings > Advanced Setup > Options the setting "Force optimization for all software" . or
For direct programming use the replace command R for changing data Programming Manual.

Cleaning

Cleaning Information

Risk of death via electric shock!
Disconnect the printer from the power supply before performing any maintenance work.
The label printer requires very little maintenance.
It is important to clean the thermal printhead regularly. This guarantees a consistently good printed image and plays a major part in preventing premature wear of the printhead.
Otherwise, the maintenance is limited to monthly cleaning of the device.

Attention!
The printer can be damaged by aggressive cleansers.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents for cleaning the external surfaces or modules.
Remove dust and paper fluff from the print area with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.
