Installation of the Printer
Locate the two sheet metal printer guides that are included with the Elite MicroPrint. Refer to
Figure 9.1 on the next page and arrange the guides as shown.
Remove the black knob that will hold the two guides together. Place the guides together as
shown in 9.2 and then replace the black knob, tighten securely. (Hand Tighten)
Next arrange the guide as shown in Figure 9.3 and
USING THE INSERTATION ANGLE

, place the Elite MicroPrint unit into the guide.
Next insert the CD Printer as shown in Figure 9.4.
USING THE INSERTATION ANGLE
INDICATED,
place the CD Printer into the guide. Holding the printer with hands on the left
and right side, insert the front on the printer at an angle first, then let the back section “drop
into” place. The printer should be securely inserted into the print holder tray and should be
completely level.
Review your configuration and confirm it matches Figures 9.5 and 9.6.
Plug the CD Printer Control Cable (mini din cable similar to a keyboard cable and has
connectors on both ends) into matching connectors in the rear of the Elite MicroPrint and the
rear of the Printer. (Figures 9.7 & 9.8)
Plug the parallel printer cable provided with the MicroPrint into the rear of the printer and into
the parallel port of your PC. (Figure 9.8)
Place the AC Power Adapter that was provided with the CD Printer next to the rear of the
printer and plug into a standard 115VAC outlet. Plug the other end into the power connector
on the rear of the printer.
The printer that is included with the MicroPrint will need to be prepared for operation. Please
follow the instructions that are provided with the printer and ready the printer for use with the
MicroPrint.
The Elite MicroPrint is generally preset for the CD Printer. Once the unit is connected and
operational, you may have to perform an alignment of the printer.
Please note that in addition to installing Discus Label Making Software you will be required to
install the Printer Driver included with your printer. Generally there is a labeling program that
is included with the printer, this software can be used in addition to the Discus. Please follow
the instructions included with this software.
