TANGO / TANGO XL – Operation 6–17
8 Mounting Barcode Strips
This step is only necessary if the barcode
strip is dirty or defective. The scanning
drums have the barcode strips pre-fitted on
delivery.
Barcode strips are contained in the scope of
delivery.
■ Different Barcode Strips
Different barcode strips are available for
the 150-mm and 212-mm drums. No
distinction is made between standard and
Copix drums.
For 150-mm drums, it is necessary to use
barcode strips whose initial digit is 0, whe-
reas for 212-mm drums, it is necessary to
use barcode strips whose initial digit is 2:
150-mm drum: 000001 to 099999
212-mm drum: 200001 to 299999
Before you fit a new strip, first
remove all the remains of the old
adhesive strip. The drum must be
completely clean and grease-
free.
Stick the barcode into the designated
groove, making sure that the 1st marking
on the barcode is aligned such that it is in
line with the groove at the side of the
alignment strip for reflection scanning –
tolerance threshold ± 1 mm (see sketch).
These mounting instructions apply for all
TANGO drums, namely both for standard
drums and for Copix drums with 150-mm
and 212-mm diameters.
