The
following
sections
describe
the
setup
procedures
that
need
to
be
checked
and
performed
on
the
dot
matrix
printer
before
labels
can
be
printed
properly.
Make
sure
the
dot
matrix
printer's
application
plate
is
aligned
correctly
by
holding
a
device
in
your
fingers
in
the
“dead
bug”
position,
with
the
leads
pointing
up,
and
sliding
it
across
the
application
plate,
over
the
press
bearings,
and
onto
the
bearing
plate
(see
Figure
2-8).
The
device
should
move
smoothly
across
the
press
bearings.
If
device
travel
is
not
smooth,
use
a
7/64-inch
hex
wrench
to
loosen
(raise)
or
tighten
(lower)
the
screw
on
the
left
side
of
the
plate
(near
the
bearings)
until
a
smooth
transition
is
achieved
(see
Figure
2-8).

Labels
Labels
are
positioned
on
a
non-adhesive
liner
material
so
they
will
peel
easily
as
they
advance
around
the
label
platen's
point.
The
label
part
number
is
written
on
a
label
attached
to
the
inside
of
the
label
roll.
Note:
The
label
part
number
is
marked
on
the
inner
cardboard
reel.
You
can
identify
a

of
ProMaster

Installation
and
Setup
Refer
to
Figure
2-9
and
follow
these
steps
to
install
a
roll
of
labels:
1.
Raise
the
application
plate,
and
release
rollers
B
and
F
by
sliding
them
in
the
direction
shown
by
the
arrows
in
Figure
2-9.
This
prepares
the
path
of
the
labels
to
be
threaded
through
the
labeler.
2.
Remove
the
label
reel
cover
(see
Figure
2-9).

3.
If
labels
are
already
installed,
unthread
the
liner,
and
remove
the
label
roll
by
putting
your
thumbs
into
the
cut-outs
in
the
supply
reel
and
rocking
the
roll
back
and
forth
as
you
pull
it
off.
4.
Install
the
labels
on
the
supply
reel
so
that
the
label
liner
passes
to
the
left
of
optic
A
(see
Figure
2-9).
Note:
Do
not
tighten
the
label
roll
on
its
core.
The
roll
is
intentionally
wrapped
loosely
so
that
high
temperature
and
humidity
do
not
cause
the
labels
to
peel
incorrectly.
5.
Replace
the
label
reel
cover
over
the
label
reel.
6.
Unroll
approximately
two
feet
of
liner,
and
thread
it
around
the
left
of
roller
B,
between
C
and
D,
and
then
between
the
platen
and
press
bearings.
7.
Move
roller
B
to
the
left
so
it
pinches
the
label
liner
and
holds
it
in
position.
Ensure
that
the
labels
are
fully
aligned
between
the
underside
of
the
platen
and
above
C
and
D.

8.
Thread
the
label
liner
across
the
platen
and
lower
the
application
plate
to
hold
it
in
position.
9.
Route
the
liner
to
the
left
side
of
roller
E
and
to
the
right
of
roller
F.
Allow
the
remaining
liner
to
drape
to
the
left
of
knob
G.
10.
Move
roller
F
to
the
right
until
it
snaps
into
position.
Note:
To
ensure
correct
label
printing
and
application,
make
sure
both
pinch
rollers
(B
and
F)
are
fully
engaged.
At
certain
times,
you
must
calibrate
the
labels
so
that
the
2500
can
correctly
print
and
apply
them
to
devices.
During
the
label
calibration
process,
the
ADC
(label
detection)
optic
reads
and
assigns
a
value
to
the
amount
of
light
passing
through
the
label
when
it
is
blocking
the
optic.
You
can
view
and
adjust
this
ADC
optic
value
from
the
2500's
optics
diagnostics
menu
(refer
to
page
5-34).
You
must
calibrate
labels
whenever
you:
•
Change
the
labels
•
Change
the
ribbon
•
Advance
the
labels
by
running
the
label
drive
motor
test,
turning
the
label
advance
knob,
or
pulling
the
labels
forward
by
hand
•
Adjust
the
ADC
optic
value
To
calibrate
labels,
do
the
following:
1.
Place
your
finger
next
to
the
press
bearings
to
“catch”
the
two
or
three
labels
that
are
advanced
during
the
calibration
process.
2.
Press
CAL
on
the
2500's
keyboard.
3.
When
the
labels
stop
advancing,
calibration
is
complete.
