2.4. Printer Mechanism
It is very important that you be familiar with the printer mechanism. Every time your labels run out
you will be required to install the label roll and you will need to know the general parts of the printer.

Front View: (with Printer Front Cover removed)
LABEL PEEL SENSOR:
This sensor is used in conjunction with IR LED to detect if there is a
label waiting to be removed.
THERMAL PRINTHEAD:
The Thermal Printhead is the part that does the actual printing.
The printhead is VERY sensitive!! Please keep water and other liquids AWAY from the printhead.
DO NOT TOUCH the underside of the printhead. DO NOT USE METAL OBJECTS to clean the
printhead or you may cause an electrical short and damage the printhead. If labels become jammed
and stuck to the printhead, please call a qualified CAS Dealer to resolve the problem. When you
are finished installing labels, you will need to push down on the TOP of the printhead to lock it in place.
RED RUBBER ROLLER:
This is the part that the printhead presses the labels against in order to print.
Please do not scratch or damage the roller in any way. Any damage to the roller will result in bad print or
lower quality print.
PEEL-OFF BAR:
This part causes the labels to peel-off their backing paper when the paper slides
over it. Always install the labels OVER the Peel-Off Bar.
IR LED:
This part is used in conjunction with the Label Peel Sensor to detect if there is a label
waiting to be removed (InfraRed Light Emitting Diode)
NOTE:
Always replace the Printer Side Cover and the Printer Front Cover to ensure proper operation of
the scale. Failure to do so can result in printer failure. Also, failure to comply with any or all of the
guidelines for proper maintenance can adversely affect your scales warranty.
