Operational Procedures
Loading Tickets into Feeding Mechanism
When loading new ticket stacks, be sure that the printer mechanism assembly has been unseated from the
outer slide chassis’s racking retainers, and there is power to the printer. The first ticket of the stack must be
inserted into the printer by hand. The Series 800 Printers’ Ticket Supply Box is integrated with a guide to
direct the ticket into the printer mechanism. Once the leading ticket enters the TOP OF FORM sensor, the
ticket will be automatically fed into the Printer Mechanism Assembly.

1.
Check to ensure that the tickets have been placed in the ticket supply box with the proper black dot
orientation.

be fed about a ½" into the mechanism; at this time, the machine automatically completes the feeding
process.
