The Elite is generally supplied with an Inkjet Printer Tray and this tray must be removed. Please 
store this tray if you plan to ever use the Elite for Inkjet printing.  
 
To install the printer onto the Elite unit following these steps: 
 
Install the thermal ribbon and prepare the PowerPro for operation 
 
Install the PowerPro Software located on the CD supplied with the printer documentation. 
 
Remove the Inkjet tray that was shipped on the Elite. 
 
Locate and install the PowerPro Thermal Printer tray onto the Elite Unit 
 
Secure the fasteners snug, but do not tighten. 
 
Place the printer into the print holding tray located at the top of the drive stack. Holding the printer 
with hands on the left and right side, insert the front of the printer at an angle first, and then let the 
back section “drop into” place. The printer should be securely inserted into the print holder tray and 
should be completely level. 
 
Connect the parallel printer cable provided with the Elite into the rear of the printer and connect into 
the Elite connector on the rear of the Elite (or to your PC if the you are using an external PC).  
 
Connect the CD Printer mini din control cable to the rear of the Elite and connect the DB9M 
connector into mating connector in the rear of the printer. 
  
Connect the AC Power cord that was provided with the CD Printer next to the rear of the printer and 
connect into a standard 115VAC outlet. 
 
When you connect the printer and power is applied, the printer will perform a basic internal test and 
then wait for additional commands from the operator or the software. Once the printer has completed 
it self-tests, you will need to align the printer. First open the printer tray and open one of the drives 
below the printer. Look down through the printer tray opening adjust the printer position so that the 
center of the tray aligns with the drive tray center. Next close the printer and drive trays.
