2.2.Component names and descriptions
2.2.1. Press station
No.
Name
Description
1
Press Station
Mechanical part to control the process of hanging, feeding roll
paper and winding it back after printing.
1-1
Unwinder
Part to mount roll paper. The unwinder releases as much
paper as is needed to feed the printer, which allows the paper
to keep its tension constant.
1-2
Unwinder Tension Bar
Sensor bar for feeding paper. When paper is fed up to the
printer, the tension bar would be moved up by the tension. At
this time, the sensor works to rotate the unwinder and release
the roll to maintain the paper’s tension.
1-3
Shaft No.1
Shaft (axis) for feeding paper
1-4
Sensor
Sensor to support labels precut
1-5
Feeding Roller
Roller to insert paper into the printer when printing.
Holds remaining paper after printing and feeding it.

1-6
Cutter
Cuts continuous paper when finishing ordered printing.
1-7
Feeding Guide
Guide for paper moving from the feeding roller to the printer.
Role of aligning paper horizontally evenly during printing.
1-8
Button Panel
Front panel with 2 LEDs and 4 buttons
1. POWER LED
LED to check on/off conditions of the station
2. MARK LED
LED to check whether the sensor detects marks in the sensing
mode
3. Cut Button
Button for operating the cutter 6
4. Rew Button
Button for operating the rewinder 11
5. Feed(<) Button
Button for operating the feeding roller 5 (moving paper
backward)
6. Feed(>) Button
Button for operating the feeding roller 5 (moving paper
forward)
1-9
Shaft No.2
Shaft (axis) for feeding paper printed
1-10
Rewinder Tension bar
Sensor bar for rewinding. When paper connected to rotation
of the rewinder is wound up, the tension bar moves up by the
tension, at this time the rewinder’s rotating speed is reduced
to allow the paper to keep constant tension.
1-11
Rewinder
Part to rewind printed paper.
1-12
Rewinder guide
Guide to uniformly wind paper on the rewinder
1-13
Power Button
On/off button for the station

3. Installation of the Product
3.1.Requirements for installation
3.1.1. Overview
-This product is a printing device and digital electronic communication equipment. Accordingly, this
product can implement optimum printing quality only if it is installed in a place meeting
environmental requirements for digital equipment as well as the conditions required for a label printer.
For this reason, our company makes it a rule to professionally install our products by our staff or our
designated agency’s personnel and we request that customers follow our personnel’s suggestion for
the locations of the equipment along with the environmental requisites for optimal operation.
3.1.2. Place and environment
-The operating environment of this product is as follows, and it should be installed in a place
satisfying the specified conditions for temperature/humidity. In addition, considering the gross weight
of this product, it should be installed on a level rack that can withstand a weight more than 3 times
that of the equipment, at least. Additionally, cleanliness of the working area and minimization of dust
is essential for high-quality printing in particular.

3.1.4. Delivery
-The installation personnel will completely install this product and software (such as the printer driver)
and also a test printa roll of continuous paper. At this time, the delivery will be completed by the
customer’s signature on the receipt.
3.2.Installation of the press station
3.2.1. Checking of press station components
- The press station is mounted or projected by a unwinder, rewinder, tension bar, sensor and cutter etc.,
and is a smart station that is intricatelyconnected with various semiconductor circuits and wires to
electronically control these all components, rather than being a simple rack to put a printer on.
Therefore, the same care is required as with the printer (digital press) when moving or installing it, so
please follow understand the installation personnel’s instructions and this manual.
3.2.2. Checking of place, carrying and installation
-carefully carry the press station to the place of installation selected previously in section 3.1.2 before
the printer (digital press). This press station has a gross weight of 150Kg, with an overall size of (length)
71cm ×(width) 193cm ×(height) 70cm, which should be carried by at least 4 people. Because there
is an electronic circuit board at the rear of the press station, it is recommended that the rear is put as
close as possible to the wall for stable installation.
3.2.3. Checking of Variousplug-insandoperations

3.3.Installation of the printer (digital press)
Carrying, installation and securing of the printer: After unpacking the printer box, place the
printer on the press station, and then secure the printer and the mechanics together tightly
with bolts in the box (refer to the figure).
