Leica COGNITIVE CXI Manual

&RJQLWLYH &[L ² Label Printer

The Leica Universal Label is suitable for most labelling applications including specimen containers, request forms and microscope slides for routine, special and IHC/ISH staining. Please be aware that only in combination with the Cognitive Cxi label printer (with a firmware modification carried out for Leica Microsystems) the Leica Universal Label ensures high-quality

text imprints and high-resolution linear and two-dimensional bar code markings that withstand almost all chemical and mechanical treatments of slide labels.

For optimum performance with the Leica Universal Label (and the corresponding ink ribbon) the firmware of the Cognitive Cxi label printer has been adapted. Therefore please note that the settings in the Setup Menu of the Cognitive Cxi label printer for usage with the Leica Universal Label has to be set to Speed = Low and Darkness = 300. For video instructions of label and ink ribbon insertion please have a look at the Leica Microsystems homepage on the instrument product

1.Fold the housing upwards and press the black locking mechanism upwards (see Fig. 1) towards the gray housing and push up the entire unit (past the resistance!).

2.Unpack the ink ribbon - unroll the transparent part of the ink ribbon approx. 20 cm. Carefully adhere the separate roll core to the self-adhesive area of the transparent part (see Fig. 3).

3.Insert the ink ribbon into the label printer. To do so, insert it on the left and pull out the right knurled screw (as shown in Fig. 4) and allow it to engage in the notch.

4.Detach the transport mechanism from the housing cover by pressing the lever (see Fig. 5) - fold up the lid and insert the roll core as described in Item 3. Once you have done so, turn the right knurled screw (Fig. 6) clockwise until the black ink ribbon is wound far enough so that it is completely visible (the shiny side of the ink ribbon is facing the user!)

5.You can now fold down the grey housing cover again and insert the label roll.
