1.1 Description
The Markingenius MG4 is an industrial labelling printer designed to offer a very high quality and long-lasting printing for text,
logos, electrical symbols, QR codes and all kinds of vector images. It is equipped with a ribbon save system, a useful function
that allows you to consume only the ribbon needed for printing.
Its reliability and robustness mean that the MG4 can be used intensively, making it suitable for all kinds of applications.
The large on-board touch screen enables quick and easy management of print projects.
All CEMBRE MG products print using Windows True Type fonts in black or colour, at very high speed. It is also possible to re-
produce Clipart images, drawings, barcodes and bitmap images, including in very small sizes. Each monochrome ribbon can
print more than 300,000 MG-TPMF 4x10 mm tags with full printable surface coverage, while printing times, costs and ribbon
life may be further improved due to the ribbon optimisation system, depending on the type of material being printed. As the
pigment deposited from the ribbon dries instantaneously, printed sheets are immediately ready to use.
Projects can be set up and created from a PC with the GENIUSPRO software for managing production orders or, if necessary,
via the GENIUSPRO MOBILE APP developed by CEMBRE for IOS and Android devices (smartphones and tablets) for the latest
changes on site, on the electrical panel or on the edge of the machine.

4.2 Changing the print ribbon
To facilitate the unwinding of the ribbon, we recommend retracting the mobile carriage (5);
XRemove the top lid (3) (Fig. 9a).
XRotate the front media guide (15) completely downwards (Fig. 9b).
XRemove the ribbon take-up spool (13) by releasing it and lifting it up. Then insert the cardboard core (M) included
in the supply (Fig. 9c).
XPull out the ribbon take-up spool (14) by releasing it and raising it, thread the print ribbon through, aligning the slot
with the reference pin on the spindle (Fig. 9c).
XUnroll the ribbon by passing it under the rear guide (18) (Fig. 9) and then under the print head (20) until it comes
out on the opposite side (Fig. 9d).
XPull the ribbon further so that it passes over the front guide (19) (Fig. 9).
XTape the end of the print ribbon to the cardboard core of the spindle (13). We recommend that you wind the print
ribbon tightly around the cardboard core for a few turns in order to achieve correct take-up.
XThen secure the spool (14) in place by pushing it fully into its seating (Fig. 9d).
XLock the ribbon take-up spool (13) in place by pushing it all the way down so that the ribbon is taut (Fig. 9d).
XTurn the front media guide (15) completely upwards.
XReplace the upper lid (3).

Note!
To get the best printing results, we recommend following these rules:
• Only use genuine CEMBRE consumables (sheets, print ribbons, etc.).
• Handle the sheets carefully once out of the package and avoid touching the print area with your ngers.
• Before printing, always check that the sheets are free of dirt or residue. If necessary, clean the printing
surface with a soft cloth.
• Keep the sheets to be printed inside their packaging in a dry and clean place.
• When printing partially used sheets, make sure that there are no protruding burrs along the length of the
sheets along the punching edges or upward facing plates that could damage the print head.
• When printing partially used sheets, make sure that you are using a print le that has been suitably
modied for the number of sheets actually present on the sheet; executing a complete print with a partially
used sheet could irreparably damage the print head.

5.1 Printing process
Manually load a sheet onto the interface template in order to block its movement; the striker feet under the sheet
should match the holes in the template and the side stems should be facing the inside of the printer (Fig. 10).
After processing the print job using GENIUSPRO software, start printing.
The printing procedure includes the following phases:
1. The mobile carriage (1) retracts inside the printer.
2. The sheet is printed, then the carriage protrudes (1).
3. Manually remove the printed sheet from the template (Fig. 11).
Then manually detach the markers or tags from the sheet.
