Chapter 2 Installation
Since the EasyCoder F4 has a modular design, it uses a media supply
roll post that can be fi tted in three different positions inside the
media compartment. The position depends on the type of side door
(long, short, or Megatop) and whether or not the printer is fi tted with
an integral liner takeup. Alternatively, an external media supply
(for example a box of fan folded tickets) behind the printer can be
used. A rotating media supply hub is also available as an option,
see Chapter 8, “Options.”
Media Supply Roll Post
The media supply roll post fi ts both 38-40 mm (1.5 inches) and
76 mm (3.0-inches) cores, since it can be moved vertically in the
slot in the center section. The bottom position is intended for
small cores and the top position for large cores only. The post is
locked by a straight-slot screw and has a moveable edge guide to
fi t various media widths.
To move the post to a different slot; remove the screw, twist the post
a quarter of a turn, and pull it out.
To fi t the post; rotate it a quarter of a turn, insert it into the approp-
riate slot in the center section (see next page), and twist back so
the lips engage the cutouts in the sides of the slot. Move it up
(large core) or down (small core) as far as it goes and secure it
with the screw.
Caution!
Make sure to adjust the position of the post according to the size
of the media roll core. When the post is fi tted in the top position,
the head of the screw will interfere with small (38 mm/1.5 inches)
cores, causing media misalignment.
