How do I load labels in the cab SQUIX printer?

Instructions on how to load labels in the cab SQUIX printer

Positioning the Media Roll on the Roll Retainer

  1. Open cover
  2. Turn ring (2) at the margin stop (1) counterclockwise, so that the arrow points to the unlocked symbol, and thus release the margin stop.
  3. Remove the margin stop (1) from the roll retainer (4).
  4. Load label roll (3) on the roll retainer in such a way that the labels can be inserted into the printhead in the right position. The printing side of the labels must be visible from above.
  5. * Devices with left-aligned media guiding:
    Re-mount the margin stop (1) onto the roll retainer (4). Push the margin stop (1) to the roll (3) until the roll touches the chassis and the margin stop (1) and a clear resistance is encountered.
    * Devices with centered media guiding:
    Re-mount the margin stop (1) onto the roll retainer (4). Push the margin stop (1) to the roll (3) until the roll touches both margin stops and a clear resistance is encountered.
  6. Turn ring (2) clockwise, so that the arrow (10) points to the locked symbol , and thus fix the margin stop (1) on the roll retainer (4).
  7. Supply longer label strips: For Peel-Off or Rewind mode: approx. 60 cm For Tear-Off mode: approx. 40 cm

Inserting the Media into the Printhead

  1. 1. Turn lever (2) counterclockwise to lift the printhead.
  2. * SQUIX MT: Pull the detent pin (8). The pressing roller system (10) will swing upwards.
  3.  Adjust the guide(s) (6) with the knob (7) in such a way that
    * Devices with left-aligned media guiding
    the media can pass between the guide and the chassis.
    * Devices with centered media guiding
    the media can pass between the two guides.
  4. Guide label strip over the internal rewinder to the print unit.
  5. Guide label strip through the label sensor (3) in such a way that it exits the print unit between the printhead and the print roller.
  6. * SQUIX MT: Guide label strip further between pressing roller system (10) and pinch roller (8) of the separator, pull the detent pin, push the pressing roller system (10) downwards and lock it with the detent pin.
  7.  Move guide(s) (6) against the edge(s) of the material by turning the knob (7)
