Brady 260M Printer User Manual


 
CAUTION: To ensure that the M-Series Printer has proper
ventilation and cooling, do not place any padding or cushioning
material on the back of or underneath the unit because this will
restrict the air flow.
The M-Series Printer may be installed on any solid, level surface
of sufficient size and strength to accommodate the unit. The area in
which the printer will operate must meet the environmental
conditions specified.
Since the Brady M-Series Printer was designed and is fabricated
as an industrial-type unit, it will function satisfactorily in areas
such as a warehouse or factory floor that conform to the specified
environmental and electrical conditions.
Refer to Figure 2.3 throughout this procedure.
Note: When placing the ribbon roll on the Ribbon Supply Spindle,
make sure that the core is pushed up against the stop on the
ribbon supply spindle and that the ribbon is aligned
squarely with its core. If this is not done, the ribbon may
not cover the inside edge of the printhead, exposing print
elements to potentially damaging contact with the media.
Note:
Do not load ribbon if the printer is to be used in the Direct
Thermal Mode.
CAUTION: Do not use ribbon that is narrower than the media. If
the printhead is not protected by the smooth backing of the ribbon,
excessive abrasion may cause premature printhead failure.
