8.1.2 To install the Stacker

1. Position the Stacker with the alignment plate attached, to
the front of the printer and slot the other end of alignment
plate to the base of printer.
2. Connect the built-in cable from the Stacker to the EXT con-
nector on the printer.
3. Adjust the Tag Stop for the length of the tag.
4. Adjust the Tag Edge Guide to the width of the tag.
5. Turn the printer on and make sure the cutter is enabled and
the tags aligned for printing.
Note:
If the tag sensors are not aligned properly, the printer feeds
out a length of tag stock without cutting it, as it is attempting
to determine the tag pitch (length). Temporarily move the
Stacker unit to one side if this occurs, until the sensors are
correctly set and the tags are at the proper position. See
Section 2.3 Loading Media for instructions on loading and
Section 2.4 Media Type selection for intructions on Tag
sensor setting.
6. Send the print job to the printer and let it cut and stack a few tags. The temporarily stop the printer by
pressing the ONLINE button and check to make sure the tags are being stacked under the Tag Hold
Down and that the Tag Stop and Tag Edge Guide are properly set.
7. When proper operation has been verified, place the printer back ON LINE by pressing the ONLINE button
again to finish the print job.
8. The printer will automatically stop and go OFFLINE when the Stacker is full. When this happens, remove
the tags and finish the print job by pressing the ONLINE button to place the printer back ON LINE.
