1. Getting Started

The Paxar 610 / 611 / 612 Care Label printers let you print text, graphics, and bar codes on thermal transfer (ribbon) fabric labels.

This chapter includes information about

♦ Unpacking the printer. ♦ Connecting the power cord. ♦ Connecting the communications cable. ♦ Using the printer's control panel.

Users Manual - 610 / 611 / 612 Printers 1. Getting Started • 1

Audience

The User’s Manual is for the person who prints and applies labels.

Unpacking the Printer

After you unpack the printer, you should have: a 610 / 611 / 612 printer, power cord, communication cable and a ribbon take-up core (may already be on take-up reel).

Keep the box and packaging material in case the printer ever needs repair.

Power cords are not supplied with 230-volt printers. You need to purchase a power cord separately. The power cord requires IEC 320 STD C13 end finish for the printer interface and it must meet requirements for 1.6 Amps at 115VAC and 1 Amp at 230VAC.

Shipping the Printer

If you need to ship the printer to a different location:

1. Remove the ribbon roll, if one is loaded.

2. Remove the supply roll, if one is loaded.

3. Close the printhead by pressing down on the thumb well until

you hear it click into place.

4. Place the printer in the original box and secure with packaging

material. Make sure the printer is adequately packed to avoid damage during shipment.

Connecting the Power Cable

To connect the power cable:

1. Plug the power cable into the socket. Plug the other

end of the cable into a grounded electrical outlet.

2. Turn on the printer. Press ( I ) to turn on and ( O ) to

turn off the printer.

2 • 1. Getting Started Users Manual - 610 / 611 / 612 Printers

Establishing Communications

Before the printer can accept print jobs from the host, you must:

♦ Connect the communication cable to the printer and to the host. ♦ Set the communication values on the printer to match those at the host. (Only required if

you are using the serial port.)

Connecting the Communication Cable

Make sure the printer is off before connecting the cable to the communication port. Your printer is supplied with a parallel printer cable. You may optionally connect your printer to a serial port. To do this, you must purchase a serial interface cable compatible with your computer.

♦ Serial Communication

9 to 25 pin cable 25 to 25 pin cable

♦ Parallel Communication

IEEE-1284 or Centronics mode cable

See Chapter 4, "Communication Values," for more information.

Connect the communications cable to the appropriate port on your computer. If you are unsure where to connect the cable, consult your computer documentation.

NOTE: It is highly recommended that you use the cable

supplied with your printer. Paxar cannot be responsible for communications problems when a non-Paxar cable is used.

Connect the other end of the communication cable into the appropriate port on the printer. Secure the cable with the connecting screws (serial) or spring clips (parallel).

The printer also has a USB (Universal Serial Bus) Version 1.1 communication port. Drivers are available on our Web site for a variety of operating systems.

Parallel Port

USB Port

Serial Port

Users Manual - 610 / 611 / 612 Printers 1. Getting Started • 3

Default Serial Port Communication Values

If you are communicating with the host through the serial port, make sure the printer's communication values match those at the host. The factory default values are: 9600-Baud, 8 bit data frame Word Length, 1 Stop Bit, no Parity, and XON / XOFF Flow Control.

To change the printer's communication values, ask your System Administrator or see Chapter 4, "Communication Values," for more information.

Default Printer Settings

These defaults can be changed using Paxar's PCMate software. Print Speed - 4.0 ips (inches per second), Ribbon - High Energy, Supply Type - Black Mark, Contrast - 225, Backfeed Disabled.

Using the Control Panel

The control panel has a two-line LCD display, 2 status lights, and five buttons. The control panel displays error codes / messages, and allows you to setup-configure the printer.

Printer Status Lights

2. Loading Supplies

This chapter describes how to load a roll of supply and a ribbon roll.

You can use Paxar's fabric label kits containing fabric labels and ribbon. If you switch from black mark to continuous supplies make sure the printer is set for the correct supply type.

Make sure you use only approved Paxar supplies. See Appendix A, "Specifications and Accessories" for a list of Paxar supplies or contact your Paxar Representative for more information.

If you experience label jamming with narrow supplies in humid environments, store supplies separately from the printer in a dry, less humid environment.

CAUTION

The width of the ribbon must be greater than the supply width. Since

some supplies are more abrasive to printheads than others, using a

ribbon wider than your supply helps protect the printhead. Failure to do

this may void your printhead warranty. Replacement printheads are

expensive.

7. Lay the label strip across the supply guide (B). It is not necessary at this point to put the

label strip in the guide. Lay the label strip across the platen roller (C) and thread the end of the strip into the gap between the platen roller and the auxiliary feed (D).

8. Reach under the platen roller and pull the label strip back towards the turn bar (F). Thread

the label strip under the guide roller (E) and around the turn bar (F) as shown below.

Users Manual - 610 / 611 / 612 Printers 2. Loading Supplies • 15

9. Bring the label strip over the guide roller and across the platen roller to the left of the strip

that is already around the roller. Place the end of the strip into the auxiliary feed and feed it through using the advance knob (G). Press the advance knob toward the printer to engage the advance shaft. Turn the knob counter-clockwise to feed the label strip. Continue feeding the label strip until it appears coming out of the cutter.

10. Insert the label strip into both sides of the supply guide. Adjust the supply guide by

moving the right guide in or out, depending on the stock width. The label strip should be in the guide slots on the inner edges of the strip and under the sensor at the back right of the guide. Adjust the supply guide so that it just matches the width of the inner strip. The outer strip will be slightly loose.

11. Push the black deflector tab down. Release the printhead latch, but do not lock the

printhead assembly down. Gently roll the supply roll back to tighten the label strip. Continue until the label strip is snug around the turn bar. Lock the printhead down.

Note: If the printer is not used for an extended period, the label stock may take a “set”

where it goes around the turnbar. After a period of not printing, it is recommended that you feed the material through the printer until the “set” material has gone through the knife. This will reduce the possibility of jamming.

This is the amount to move the label backwards. The backfeed distance can not be greater than the dispense position. If you make the backfeed distance greater than the dispense position, the dispense position automatically changes to match the backfeed distance.

The backfeed distance should equal the dispense position. An exception is when you are tearing labels, instead of peeling. Then, the backfeed distance must be 30 dots (0.15 inches) less than the dispense position to account for improper tearing of butt cut supplies. You will have a 30-dot non-print zone on your supply, but this prevents exposed adhesive under the printhead.

Setting Contrast

The print contrast controls the darkness of the printing on your supply. The range is -699 to +699 and the default is 225. You may need to increase the print contrast for linerless

supplies. Having the correct print contrast setting is important because it affects how well your bar codes scan and how long your printhead lasts. You can use a verifier to check the bar code print quality.

Contrast Knob Adjustment

The physical contrast knob that was located on the back of the printer has been replaced with a virtual contrast adjustment. This adjustment is controlled by software (virtual), not hardware, by sending an immediate command.

NOTE: Your printer already has the maximum value set as the default. If you want to lower

the contrast, you can make this software adjustment. This adjustment should be made your System Administrator or another advanced user.

Your printer must be connected to the host and ready to receive data.

1. Enable the immediate command character, by sending this packet to the printer before

you send any commands:

{I,E,"~123~044~034~124~125~126~094"¦}

Enables the caret (~094) as the immediate command control character.

2. Use the table below to find your desired contrast setting from –125 to 125. Each count of

this contrast adjustment is equal to four counts of the contrast value set offline or via MPCL packets.

Memory Guidelines

Use these basic guidelines when storing files in your printer's memory.

♦ Your printer may have volatile RAM (packets deleted when the printer is turned off), non-

volatile RAM (packets saved when the printer is turned off), and flash memory (packets saved when the printer is turned off). Each printer has a different limit of available memory.

♦ Before you save any packets in flash memory, you must format flash memory first. See

"Formatting Flash Memory" for more information.

♦ Formats, graphics, and check digits can be saved in flash (but they are also duplicated in

RAM). Any packets saved in flash cannot exceed the memory available in RAM.

♦ Fonts are stored differently in flash. If you print TrueType or double-byte Asian fonts,

purchase a printer with the extended memory option.

♦ There is not a 1-to-1 ratio between the memory in your printer and the memory in your PC.

For example, a file that is 5K in Windows may require 15-20K to store in your printer.

♦ When using graphics, use the lowest-resolution graphic possible. If your printer uses a

203 dpi printhead, the graphic's resolution should be 150 to 200 dpi. In fact, 96 dpi may work. Try to create the smallest file size possible.

♦ Use temporary storage for graphics that are only used once or twice. However, if you

have a logo that is used on multiple formats, save the graphic in flash. Once again, try to create the smallest file size possible for your graphic.

♦ Each line in a packet requires the same amount of memory. The smaller the format, the

less memory required to save it.

Setting Batch Options

You can select Batch Options to change which prompts appear during Batch Entry mode and set default values for those prompts. Customizing which prompts appear during batch entry can reduce the time it takes to enter data for a format. If you set a new default value for an option, that value is used even if the prompt is not displayed. If you do not change a default value for an option, the system default is used if the prompt is not displayed.

Setting batch options requires the optional keypad, which must be

purchased separately.

Refer to your keyboard's Operating Instructions for more information.

About Scripts

Using the Scripts menu requires custom software from Paxar. It allows you to print data streams written for other printers.

Ignore these menus if you do not use Scripts.

6. Printing

This chapter explains how to

♦ Use on-demand mode printing. ♦ Print an error label. ♦ Print, pause, restart, cancel, and repeat a batch.

You can send format, batch, and graphic data to the printer from a host. When the printer receives the data, batches begin printing automatically. The optional Packet Reference Manual tells how to create, store, and download the data necessary to print batches. You can also use the Monarch® MPCL™ Toolbox utilities to create and download packets.

Printing

Before you print, make sure the printer is connected and ready to receive data.

1. Turn on the printer. Your printer is ready to receive and print batches when you see

PRINT MODE Ready

2. Download a format and a batch. Refer to the optional Packet Reference Manual for

information on downloading print jobs.

3. The printer prints a strip of labels.

4. Remove the printed labels.

If the printer will be unused for extended periods of time, we recommend

leaving the printhead unlatched.

An optional keypad is also available to enter offline batch data. The keypad must be purchased separately. If there are offline batches in the print queue, the offline batches print after the downloaded batches have printed.

NOTE: Due to the way labels are printed by the 612 printer, the total label count will not be

Printer Alignment - Top and Bottom Copy – 612

The 612 printer must be adjusted so that the copy on the top and bottom of the label lines up correctly. On the base of the unit near the supply roll is an adjustment guide (see the picture on page 20). On the guide are several black bars, each of which corresponds to a set of label lengths. The guide allows an approximate adjustment when the label material is loaded (see Loading Labels – 612 ). After the supplies are loaded, the printer must be adjusted to properly align the print on the top and bottom of the finished label.

1. Unlatch the printhead. Turn the Label Length Adjustment Knob until the pointer on the

turn bar falls within the black bar corresponding to the length of the label to be printed.

2. With the printhead resting in the down position, but not latched, gently turn the supply roll

back until the stock is snug around the turn bar. Latch the printhead.

3. Load a batch and print several test labels, until labels are printed with print on both the top

and bottom. Note the alignment of the front and back copy. If the back copy is too far toward the top of the label, turn the Label Length Adjustment Knob counter-clockwise. If the back copy is too far toward the bottom of the label, turn the Label Length Adjustment Knob clockwise.

4. Run several more labels and check the alignment. Make further adjustments as

necessary.

Non-Printing Zone

A non-print zone is required for text (light copy) and bar codes (heavy copy). Thin lines and most fonts require a 0.25-inch non-print zone at the leading edge of the label. Bar codes, bold fonts, and Care symbol fonts require a 0.375-inch non-print zone at the leading edge of the label. Without these non-print zones, the ribbon sticks to the supply and can cause jams.

PCMate Software has a built-in non-print zone; however, some third party software packages may not. You should verify the non-print zone or check defaults.

Regardless of the software package you are using to create / design

formats, do not place logos or bar codes too close to the edge of your

0.375 inch non-print zone

Feed

supply.

Users Manual – 610 / 611/ 612 Printers 6. Printing • 47

Preventing Jams

To prevent jams

♦ Design formats using the appropriate non-print zones. ♦ Do not leave the printhead closed (in the locked position) longer than 30 minutes without

printing. Open (unlock) the printhead before a break period, at the end of each shift, and at the end of each day.

Printing Serial Bar Codes

Currently, the 610 / 611 / 612 printer does not support printing serial (ladder) bar codes.

Parallel (Picket Fence) Bar Code Serial (Ladder) Bar Code

Adjusting the Cut Angle

To adjust the cut angle:

1. Loosen the thumbscrews.

2. Slightly rotate the knife to the left or to the right. The knife may appear to sit at a slight

angle to the printer.

3. Tighten the thumbscrews.

4. Cut another batch of tags. If you are unable to adjust for a straight cut, call Technical

Support.

48 • 6. Printing Users Manual – 610 / 611/ 612 Printers

Using the Knife

The installed knife is two and a half (2-1/2) inches away from the printhead. Pressing and holding Feed / Cut for two seconds marks the tag under the printhead to be cut when it reaches the knife. Depending on the length of your supply, you may lose up to two tags after the last batch.

The knife operates when the printer is running. If the printer is paused,

the knife stops cutting.

Adjusting the Drop Tray

Depending on the model purchased, your printer may have a drop tray stacker. Adjust the drop tray by removing the plastic pins and re-inserting them according to the diagram below. Select the setting based on the length of your label.
