FCC Note
Verify Correctness of
Weight & Price
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference; in
which case, the user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense.
Verification of information on labels should be made
routinely. Check the multiplication of price-per-pound
times weight, and check the indicated weight against
printed weight. Weigh the same package several times to
verify consistency. Bear in mind that some packages which
weigh near the middle of the .01 lb. increment will normally
vary up or down by .01 lb. Greater variation than .01 lb.
indicates a need for adjustment of the system. In such cases,
or whenever necessary, contact your authorized Hobart
service representative.

Quantum Scale System
General Information
The Quantum Scale System is perfect for your over-thecounter weighing applications. This state-of-the-art
weighing system can handle a broad variety of products for
deli, bakery, produce, fish and cheese departments. It can
also function in a Prepack Scale mode when necessary.
With 512K memory, the system can store information on
thousands of products; including NutriFacts which allows
you to meet labeling law requirements and Expanded Text
for Recipes and Cooking Instructions.
A new feature with the Quantum is Flashkeys which allow
easy access to product information. A maximum of 16
Flashkeys can be displayed on a screen at one time.
Multiple screens can be programmed to mirror your
product case. When an item is called up from memory, the
product information can be reviewed or changed before
weighing or label printing. This allows quicker and easier
service to your customers.
Another new feature is the On Screen Library which
provides you with the ability to locate the PLU information
using the Class Structure. A detailed description of this
feature is found later in this manual.

stock and printing needs.
You can:
♦ Load narrow or standard Die-Cut Labels for single or
multiple transactions
♦ Stream Die-Cut Labels for Bakery Printer Applications
♦ Load Continuous Label Stock
♦ Load Listing Paper

The following paragraphs describe how to load the label
stock for your desired method of operation.
Note
☛
If you want to change label stock, contact your local Hobart
Service Office to make the necessary adjustments.
Your Hobart Representative can create custom labels to
accommodate your unique merchandising needs.
2 - 9 General Information
Quantum Scale System
Loading Standard or Narrow
Die-Cut Labels
To load die-cut labels into the scale:
1. Remove the labels from the first ten (10) inches of the
label roll.
2. Place the roll of labels on the Hub in the Label Cassette.
3. Thread the Leader between the Peel Bar and the Cassette
Housing.
4. Wrap the Leader around the Take-Up Spool.
5. Slide the Take-Up Key onto the Take-Up Spool, making
sure that it is on the outside of the leader.
6. Turn the Take-Up Spool counterclockwise to remove
any slack in the label stock liner.
7. Replace the Label Cassette.
General Information 2 - 10
Quantum Scale System
Streaming Die-Cut Labels
(Bakery Printer Applications)
In most bakery printer applications, the process of printing
multiple labels can be speeded up by arranging the labels to
print in the Streaming Mode. This simply means that you
arrange the Label Roll so that it prints a label and then
“spits” it out the front of the scale with the backing paper
still attached. You might use it for example, when you need
to print 100 labels for bread. All the operator has to do after
the labels print is remove the label from the backing paper
and apply it to the package.
If you don’t set up the scale to print in the streaming mode,
the scale would either print labels one at a time and wait for
the operator to remove it or it would just start printing
labels without waiting for the operator to remove the
previous one before printing the next. As you might have
guessed, this can be quite a mess to correct.
To set-up the Quantum to print in the Streaming Mode:
1. Place the roll of labels on the Hub in the Label Cassette.
2. Thread the Leader so that the Labels come out the front
of the Label Cassette.
3. Replace the Label Cassette.
2 - 11 General Information
Quantum Scale System
Loading Continuous Label
Stock
To load Continuous Label Stock:
1. Peel the label stock from the first ten (10) inches of the
label roll, tear it off and discard.
2. Place the roll of labels on the Hub in the Label Cassette.
3. Thread the Leader between the Peel Bar and the Cassette
Housing.
4. Wrap the Leader around the Take-Up Spool.
5. Slide the Take-Up Key onto the Take-Up Spool, making
sure that it is on the outside of the leader.
6. Turn the Take-Up Spool counterclockwise to remove
any slack in the label stock liner.
7. Replace the Label Cassette.
Loading Listing Paper Stock
Loading Linerless Labels
General Information 2 - 12
To load Listing Paper:
1. Place the roll of Listing Paper on the Hub in the Label
Cassette.
2. Thread the Listing Paper so that it comes out the front of
the Label Cassette.
3. Replace the Label Cassette.
To load Linerless Labels:
1. Place the roll of Linerless Labels on the Hub in the Label
Cassette.
2. Thread the Linerless Labels so that it comes out the front
of the Label Cassette.
3. Replace the Label Cassette.
Quantum Scale System
Installing the Label Cassette
To install the Label Cassettes:
1. Line the Guide Rail on the Label Cassette with the Track
on the base of the scale.
2. Slide the Label Cassette into the Printer Area. The
