User manual CITIZEN CLP-2001

[. . . ] This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions, may cause interference to radio and television reception. This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications. This equipment is designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. [. . . ] The basic unit is common to all label format and system level commands. The label format commands are used to specify the position, length, whole screen offset etc. And the system level commands are used to specify the maximum paper length, home position offset etc. 5 mm from the left edge of the paper is the reference point. the left bottom is the reference point for the printed characters and bar codes. The concept of this reference point is common to such commands as ruled line and graphic. Paper reference line Printing reference point Direction of paper feed Printing reference point The ±10% of the width of the paper to be used is recommended for the width of the thermal-transfer ribbon. The ribbon with inking surface rolled inward or outward can be used. A single roll of ribbon (360 m) can be used for printing on about two rolls with an outer diameter of 203 mm (8 in). CAUTION Be careful of the edges of the plates so injury or property damage is possible. The printer is designed to easily load the paper and ribbon. When the print is unclear or blurred because of poor paper quality: Adjust the offset of the print head and platen by turning the offset adjustscrew. The print head offset adjustments are made by changing the inclination of the print head to the platen. This has already been factory-set, but the offset may have been changed if the print head was replaced or disassembled. Also, it may change when using a different type of paper. In those cases, make adjustments according to the criteria below. A) b) Standard or label paper (slick paper, craft paper etc. ) and thermal paper Thick paper (tag or other similar paper) The relationship between the offset check window and the print head heating element is shown as follows: The relationship between the offset adjustment screw and the print head heating element is shown below: a) Print head position for label Offset adjustment screw Offset check window a Offset adjustment screw Offset check window When the print density on the left and right sides is not equal (when the paper with a different width has been used): The right head pressure viewed from the front of the panel can be adjusted with the head pressure adjust-screw. Turning the adjust-screw clockwise decreases the head pressure and turning the adjust-screw counterclockwise increases the head pressure. And the condition of the right side of the print head can be checked through the upper frame window, which is located at the front of the printer mechanism unit. Adjustments Normally, the left and right head pressure has already been factory-set to same loads. The check marks of the upper frame window are located at the right side of the printer viewed from the front of the printer. [. . . ] The printer will feed back paper to the start print position when the next print job is sent. Turning Tear ON/OFF Tear can be turned to ON or OFF from the control panel. Tear-off when printing If set, the tear-off will start if no data is transmitted from the computer for 0. Tear-off is only performed for the final label of each batch processing. [. . . ]
