Checking and Adjusting the Print Reading Sensor’s
Sensitivity
If the Print-Reading Sensor is not functioning properly, it may mean that the sensitivity of the
Sensor needs adjustment. Examples of a possible problem with the Print-Reading Sensor
include:
•
Alarm on the HMI: Notice: No Catch Mark
•
Incorrect label cut lengths
•
Incorrect cut locations
•
Double or triple labels, in which the machine appears to ignore where the cut mark
appears at times
These issues can have a number of causes. Before attempting to adjust the Print Reading
Sensor’s sensitivity, explore some other possibilities first:
•
Make sure that film is threaded through the system. If there is no film load a new film roll
and thread it through the system (see “Installing the Film” on page
, and “Fine-Positioning the Film for Cutting” on page
•
Verify that the Print-Reading Sensor Eye is looking through the slot in the Mandrel Fin.
•
Verify that the correct recipe is loaded.
•
Check that the Film Drive Wheels are tight against the Film Drive Bearings (causing the
Wheels to slip on the label and thus preventing them from advancing the film with
precision). If needed, adjust the position of the Film Drive Wheels (see “Film Drive
Wheels: Unlocking/Adjusting/Locking” on page
•
Clean the Lens of the Print-Reading Sensor (see “Cleaning the Print Reading Sensor”
•
Verify that the Cut Length shown for the recipe is the same as the desired cut length for
the actual labels, and if not, correct it (see “Fine-Positioning the Film for Cutting” on page
and “Loading a Recipe” on page
If all of these options have been exhausted and the same problems persist, the sensitivity of the
Print-Reading Sensor may need adjustment.
To Adjust the Print-Reading Sensor’s Sensitivity
On the side of the Print-Reading Sensor is a yellow light (toward the front) and two buttons, one
with a “+” and one with a “-” on it. Their functions are:
