About this task
In order for the labels to slide smoothly onto the applicator pressure plate after dispensing, the home
position of the applicator pressure plate must be checked and adjusted, if necessary, after installa-
tion of the LTSA/LTMA. When viewed from the side, the pressure plate must be slightly above the dis-
pensed label (distance B) and slightly ahead of the dispensing edge (distance A).
Fig. 9: Setting the home position of the pressure plate (1). A = Horizontal distance (setpoint: 1 mm), B = Vertical distance
(setpoint: 0.5 mm).
Triggering the applicator without printing/dispensing: press the key below the
icon.
Procedure
1.
Switch on printer.
After booting of the printer and initialisation of the applicator (brief up-and-down movement), the
pressure plate is in home position.
2.
Check the position of the pressure plate (1) relative to the dispensing edge (2). If adjustment is
necessary, determine and note the necessary adjustment distance (horizontal and vertical).
