Fig. 6 a Media Loading Apollo 1

1. Lift the printhead by rotating the lever (1) clockwise until it stops.

With Apollo 1, the printhead lever (1) has to be rotated by approximately 260°.

Only if the swing movement has been completed will the upper pinch roller (10)

be removed from the lower pinch roller (11), and the entire area is opened for

loading the media.

2. Loosen the media retainer knurled screw (5) and swing the media retainer

(4) upwards.

3. Place the label roll (2) onto the media hub (3).

The solid line represents the feed path of outside-rolled labels, the broken line

of inside-rolled labels. The broken-dotted line shows the media path of fanfold

paper (6). For printers with internal rewinder, pay special attention that the

media is properly fed above the internal rewind hub (7) when loading.

4. Swing the media retainer (4) downwards to the media hub (3) and push it

inwards until it rests against the side of the label roll.

Tighten the knurled screw (5).

5. Slide the media guide (8) into its outermost position.

6. Unroll a length of label stock from the media roll and feed it through as

shown in Figure 6 a/b.

It is particularly important to ensure that the media strip slides properly

between the fittings of the adjustable photocell assembly (9).

7. Slide the media strip right through the space between the print roller and

the printhead until it comes out of the Apollo.

8. Slide the media guide (8) back towards the edge of the media strip.

9. Turn the lever (1) counter-clockwise until it stops and, thereby, lock the

printhead.

If you do not use the printer for an extended period of time, lift the

printhead to avoid possible flattening of the print roller.
