Connect the Direct Print Module
The direct print module is equipped with a versatile power supply unit. The device may be operated with a mains voltage of
110
… 230 V AC / 50 … 60 Hz without any adjustments or modifications.
CAUTION!
The direct print module can be damaged by undefined switch-on currents.

Set the power switch to '0' before plugging in the direct print module.

Insert the plug of power cable into a grounded electrical outlet.
NOTICE!
Insufficient or missing grounding can cause faults during operation.
Ensure that all computers and connection cables connected to the direct print module are grounded.


Connect the control unit and PC by printer interface.

Print Control
As the direct print module is always in control mode, print orders can only be transmitted but not started via the existing
interfaces (serial, USB
or Ethernet). The print is started by a start signal to the ‘print start-control input’. So that the control unit
detects when the start signal can be set, it is possible and mostly necessary to track the print status via the control outputs.
Initial Operation

After all connections are completed, switch on the control unit.
The main menu appears which shows the model type, current date and time.

Insert the ribbon cassette.
After loading the transfer ribbon cassette the measuring of transfer ribbon begins and the printhead is moved to the print
position.
