Photocell
Fig. 6.17 Photocell positions
The photocell is placed at distance B ahead of the printhead (Fig. 6.17). The photocell will trigger the print
request input of the printer to make a print. To print on the product, the print delay parameter (subsection
8.6.6) must be set to a value that is equal or greater than distance B.
Fig. 6.18 Photocell distance to the product
Keep the photocell distance (C in Fig. 6.18) within the maximum operating range of the photocell, which is
approximately 400 mm. The operating range also depends on product properties like colour, reflection etc.
Take precautions so that the product cannot damage the photocell.
6.4.2 Print safety photocell (optional)
To make sure the printer will only print when the substrate is in front of the printhead an extra photocell can
be connected to the control unit. When this photocell is not activated the printer will not print at all. When
the photocell is deactivated during the printprocess the printer will instantly stop printing.
To make sure the photocell is activated while the subtrate is in front of the printhead, the photocell should be
located close to the printhead, preferably on top of the printhead.
Keep the photocell distance (C in Fig. 6.18) within the maximum operating range of the photocell, which is
approximately 400 mm. The operating range also depends on product properties like colour, reflection etc.
Take precautions so that the product cannot damage the photocell.
