Present Sensor

The optional present sensor in connection with printers with internal rewinder

allows for on-demand label dispensing. That means, the labels are removed

from the silicon liner immediately after printing, and then available in a dis-

pense position ready for further processing.

The present sensor (2) consists of two components, the dispense edge (19)

and the present sensor photocell (6). The presence of a label (20) in dispense

position is observed by the photocell. Through its connection to the peripheral

port of the Apollo, the signal pauses the print of the next label until the label in

the dispense position is removed.

NOTICE !

When editing or creating labels in demand mode, make sure that the part

of the label which lies directly underneath the photocell is only colored

(black) to a maximum of 50%. Higher blackening/ density print may cause

malfunctions of the sensor.

Fig. 13 n Mounting of the present sensor

The Apollo is generally shipped with the tear-off plate (1) mounted. When

operating in dispense mode, the tear-off plate has to be replaced with the

present sensor (2) :

1. Turn lever (4) counter-clockwise until it stops.

2. Remove the tear-off plate (1) from the mounting holes (3).

3. Slide the present sensor (2) into the mounting holes (3).

4. Turn lever (4) clockwise until it stops.

5. Connect the cable (5) of the present sensor (6) to the 15 pin peripheral port

of the Apollo.
