Adjuster plates
As the various labelling elements do not have a
consistent thickness, the different heights need
to be balanced out using the adjuster plates. This
guarantees that the surface to be labelled is always at
the same height and can make optimum contact with
the plotter pen. The position the adjuster plate should
have is defined by the software for each labelling job
(see Chapter 5.5).
Stop mode/key STOP
If necessary, you can put the plotter into stop mode
(e.g.to stop a write process). Use the STOP key to switch
between operating and stop mode. In stop mode, the
STOP LED is red.

Writing guide and writing boards
As with a fountain pen, sometimes the ink application
from a plotter pen is not perfect at the beginning
of a writing process. To avoid rejection because of
unsatisfactory ink application, you can use the writing
guide function (see Chapter 6.1). This means the
plotter pen is first moved to a writing board before it
starts with the labelling.
The writing boards are positioned in two holding
fixtures on both sides of the pen station. The writing
board nearest to the seal insert with the active plotter
pen is always the one activated. If you wish to use the
writing aid, writing boards need to be installed.
The service pack contains replacement writing boards
(see Chapter 10).
Data memory
If print data is stored in the plotter, the Clear buffer LED
lights up yellow. To cancel a print job, you need to
wipe the data memory (see Chapter 6.4).
