1.
Open the pivoting deck by rotating the blue deck lock lever
clockwise and then open the front door and loosen the two
thumbscrews for better platen access.
2.
Remove the wrapped label by slowly pulling and
unwrapping it from the platen.
NOTE: Even though power is removed from the platen motor,
some drag will be felt as the platen rotates.
CAUTION
Never use a sharp object against the platen as cuts and
gouges in the platen may cause voids in the printed image
and require platen replacement.
3.
When the entire label is removed from the platen, then use
an isopropyl alcohol wipe, Printronix PN 254945-901, to
remove all the adhesive from the platen to help prevent
any future label wraps. Tighten the printer front door
thumbscrews.
4.
A label wrap occurs when a die cut label is incorrectly torn
at the tear bar by the user and adhesive is exposed under
the leading edge of the next label. When the printer pulls
this next label back to TOF, the adhesive contacts the
platen and when the label advances forward during
printing or a Form Feed, it wraps around the platen.
5.
Label wraps can be avoided by having the user practice
careful tear off techniques and ensuring that the label
across perforations are ideally positioned at the tear bar
edge by using the correct Media > Image > Paper Feed
Shift value.
1.
Set the printhead pressure adjustment dial to the MIN
position.
2.

3.

desired head pressure setting.
