3. Use Instructions
3.1 Run Foil Control Center
Open the file "FoilControlCenter" and Run the
Normally, when installation is done by ISIX, the FoilControlCenter is already running in
the background.
3.2 Prepare 123 Ribbon Printer
3.2.1 Check parts
The 123 Ribbon Printer consists of two feeding axes (one for the foil and one for the
ribbon) with four mounting sleeves, two waste axes for the foil, the printer itself, the
power cable and the network cable.The delivery also includes a tool to fix the mounting
sleeves, plus cotton pads to clean the print head.
3.2.2 Enter Ribbon
Move the print head manually up, so that the area to the main printing axis and the two
defection axes is easy accessible.
Position the ribbon centralized on the feeding axle (thicker axis) and fix it with the
mounting sleeves.

10
The printing section consists of three axles: the main printing axles (black rubber) and
two deflection axles just before and after the printing axle.
Enter the ribbon in the order “down”, “up”, “down”:
1. Below the first deflection axis (“down”)
2. Above the main printing axis (“up”)
3. Below the second deflection axis (“down”)
Hint: to change the ribbon, you can let the foil installed (just ease it to have enough
space to enter the new ribbon). E.g. if you want to print different ribbons with the same
foil (e.g. gold on black ribbon and gold on white ribbon).
3.2.3 Enter Foil
First make sure the foil is entered the way you have the material on top that should be
finally on top of the ribbon. E.g., the gold foil will have to golden part on top, while the
yellow part looks towards the ribbon.
The foil follows the ribbon, so the order “down”, “up”, “down” applies. After the second
deflection roll, the foil needs to be fixed at the upper waste roll.
You might want to fix the foil with a small tape to the waste axis.
