15.14 Liner Takeup Troubles
Description:
The internal liner takeup unit does not work properly.
Possible Causes and Suggested Remedies:
• Bad liner takeup or bad separation of labels from liner at the tear bar.
- Check that the media is routed correctly as described in the User’s
Guide.
- Check that the liner is securely locked to the takeup hub by the brace,
so it cannot slip.
- Check the setup for incorrect media type and feed adjust settings.
• Takeup unit slips.
- Spring clutch inside the takeup hub is broken.
- Either the outside of the pulley or the inside of the hub has become
worn.
• Either the liner drive roller in the print mechanism or the takeup hub
is not driven by the stepper motor.
- Check if any of the belts from the stepper motor is broken or has
come off the pulleys, see Chapter 8.2.
• Neither the liner drive roller in the print mechanism nor the takeup
hub is driven by the stepper motor.
- Check if the stepper motor runs. If not, check as for “Media feed does
not work” in Chapter 15.12.
- Check if both the belts from the stepper motor are broken or have
come off the pulleys, see Chapter 8.2.
