A General Guide to the Documentation A General Guide to the Documentation This manual contains the description and usage instructions for the A8 printers. For detailed technical information on programming of the A8, a separate Programming Guide is available on request. For specific information on maintenance and repair of the printers, separate Service/Maintenance Manuals are available. The first few chapters cover general information which is necessary for unpacking and setup of the printer, including ribbon and media loading. Chapter 5 covers the connection and usage of optional equipment that may be attached to the printer. In the appendices, additional information such as cabling specifications, error messages and problem resolution, and maintenance/cleaning instructions are included. Please take special note of the specifications for suggested print media and the references to cleaning the printer, to prevent damage, poor quality printing and avoidable failures of your printer. Every effort has been made in the creation of this manual to provide as much information as possible in a form that is both understandable and useful. We welcome your comments and suggestions regarding additions or corrections to improve future editions of this manual. cab Produkttechnik GmbH & Co KG 7

1. Product Description 1. Product Description General Information A8 is an innovative printer which may be used in either direct thermal or thermal transfer mode. It offers a high resolution with virtually an unlimited variety of printout designs. The center mounting plate is made of die-cast aluminum which makes it very robust and resistant to bending. By using 32 bit-processors from Motorola and the internal memory of 16 MB, very long large labels (up to a length of 25.5 in / 650 mm) can be printed quickly. As standard equipment, the printer has a bi-directional parallel and a serial RS-232-interface. An optional RS-422/485-interface, USB-interface or ethernet-interface can be installed. The printer auto-senses which interface is actually used. Furthermore the printer has a keyboard interface to connect a standard keyboard as well as a bar code scanner. By using a memory card it is possible to print and to enter variable data without any connection to a computer. The ranging power supply (100-240VAC) allows the printer to be used around the world without re-configuration. The operation and usage of the printer is simple and comfortable. All printer settings can be carried out with the Navigator Pad. To ease the operation the active key is marked in the several operating modes. The graphic LCD display keeps the operator constantly informed about the current status of the printer. The modular design of the printers guarantees efficient service. Additional accessories are external un- and rewinders as well as a label/tag cutter. Printer Types A8 printers are available in two equipment variations: for tearing-off or internal rewinding the labels. Basic Device: A8/300 The device is equipped with a tear-off plate to aid the removal of the labels or continuous material by hand after printing. R-Version : A8/300R The printer is equipped with an internal rewind and may be used to rewind short runs in the printer. 8 cab Produkttechnik GmbH & Co KG
