PART 1: INSTALLATION AND OPERATIONS
INSTALLING THE EVOLUTION SC PRINTING SYSTEM
Caution should be taken while installing the EVOLUTION SC printing system on your
equipment. Digital Design Inc. has taken every precaution to ensure a safe and
accurate instruction set to guide the installer through the installation process.
Follow the operational guidelines in the installation procedures.
VERIFY THAT YOUR EQUIPMENT IS IN PROPER OPERATING
CONDITION.
LOCATE A CONVENIENT POSITION ON YOUR EQUIPMENT.
EVOLUTION SC REQUIRES 4-1/2" OF SPACE ON THE
PRODUCTION LINE.
FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION PROCEDURES.
READ CAREFULLY ALL INSTALLATION PROCEDURES BEFORE
PROCEEDING.
INSTALL THE PRINTING SYSTEM ON YOUR EQUIPMENT.
THERE IS NO EXTRA HARDWARE REQUIRED OTHER THEN
THAT SUPPLIED IN THE INSTALLATION KIT.
MOUNTING ON PRODUCTION LINE
Locate the supplied mounting template
and affix in a convenient location on the
production line. Spot and drill both
mounting holes for a 5/16” bolt. NOTE:
the user may also thread the side of the
conveyer using a 5/16” tap.
Fasten the mounting bracket to the
conveyer using the supplied mounting
hardware and ensuring that the supplied
ground strap is located securely beneath
either of the two mounting bolts, and that
conductivity to earth ground is less than 1 ohm. This ensures a proper path for
static discharge, should the need arise.

INSTALLING THE PRINT CARTRIDGE
Remove the protective film from the face of the print head and retain the film.
This protective film may be re-applied to store partially used cartridges. If it is
necessary to remove the print head and store for a long period of time, it is best
to re-apply the plastic film, and place the cartridge in a closeable plastic bag.
The print cartridge is installed into the print head by inserting at a slight angle and
depressing the rear of the cartridge until it snaps into place. To remove the
cartridge gently lift the rear tab on the

CONNECTING THE CONTROLLER TO THE PRINT HEAD
Connect the Controller to the print carriage using the supplied 3 FT (.9 mm)
interconnect cable C21008-3 supplied with the Printing System. The cable is a
standard RJ50 (10 conductor). Longer cables are available as required.
Connect either end of the cable to the Carriage Assembly and securely lock in
place. NOTE: THE CONNECTOR MUST BE PLUGGED INTO THE INPUT RJ50
CONNECTOR LOCATED BELOW THE POWER CONNECTOR AND MARKED
WITH AN ARROW POINTING TO THE CONNECTOR. A click will be heard
when the connector is in the appropriate position. Connect the free end to the
Controller Assembly and ensure connector is securely seated.

HARD RESET:
In the event it is necessary to perform a hard reset, disconnect the power cable,
insert a standard paperclip into the hole located on the top of the cabinet, and
while holding the paper clip in place (a light click will be felt) re-apply the power
connector.
This operation will reset the print carriage assembly to the factory default settings
and clear any current message.
Note: upgrading the system to a newer version of software will automatically
perform this operation.
6 EVOLUTION SC SYSTEM MANUAL Issue 1.1 15 November 2006

MULTIPLE PRINT HEADS
EVOLUTION printing systems have the ability to reside on a network. The network
may contain from 1 to 32 print carriages connected via RJ50 cables. These
cables are available in varying lengths depending on the application.
Each mounting bracket can support up to 4 print carriages and would typically
interconnect with a 6” RJ50 data cable.
NOTE: Special care must be taken to connect the output of the first print carriage
to the input of the next print carriage.
When connecting multiple print carriages place no more than 2 stations on a side
of the mounting bracket as shown.
