1
Install the printer on stand
24
in any convenient position in a
place that is free from vibration, shocks, excessive dust,
smoke and dirt as well as from aggressive or inflammable
vapours and gases.
If the printer is to be operated in a heavily dusty or
contaminated environment, please consider whether an
additional filter should be used in order to protect vent valve
4
or whether a cover allowing free airflow should be installed
(ask your dealer for optional accessories).
Install and operate the printer in such a position that the line
determined by the top housing edge of controller
1
shows the
HORIZONTAL DIRECTION,
whereas the butting face of the
head shows the VERTICAL DIRECTION (see
Fig. 2
).
NOTE:
The printer must not be tilted in any direction by
greater an angle than 30° while it is being installed
and operated.

You can fix an (external) photo-detector in a required place and attach it to connection socket

which is on the back panel.
You can also install a conveyor speed converter, a so called shaft-encoder, in a convenient place
on the conveyor on which objects to be labelled will move, so that the converter is driven by the
conveyor. Connect the shaft-encoder to socket
16
which is on the back panel.
