DS-Series™ Printer Quick Reference DNP Imagingcomm America Corporation 1 Release: v01.2017 © 2017. All rights reserved. PN: 35-260-2-SA DS40 & DS80 Printers The DS40 and DS80 are quite similar. The instructions for one will work for the other. The main difference is in the media width size: • DS40 printers use 5” or 6” wide media sets. • DS80 printers use 10” wide media sets. The easiest way to determine what kind of printer you have is to look at the label on the front. ATTENTION: Always replace paper and ribbon at the same time. Installing a Paper Roll 1. Pull out the media compartment drawer by lifting the blue handle under the scrap box and pulling gently. 2. Release the paper compartment release lever. 3. Remove the scrap box. Set it aside. 4. Remove the paper roll from the printer. 5. Remove the spools ends from the paper roll by pulling gently on the spools. 6. Set the spools into a new roll of paper. ATTENTION: Be sure there is no gap between the paper and the spools. Failure to set correctly can result in paper jams. Set the paper into the paper compartment. Make sure the paper roll is seated so that the leading edge of the paper roll is coming over the top of the paper roll and feeding into the paper compartment from the bottom. 7. Remove the seal on the paper. 8. Advance the paper so that the paper is feeding into the printer from the bottom of the paper compartment. The printer beeps when the paper is in the correct position. 9. Replace the scrap box, and close the top of the paper compartment. 10. Close the paper compartment. ATTENTION: The printer will not operate without the scrap bin in place. Installing a New Ribbon 1. Remove the old ribbon and discard it. 2. Set a new ribbon into the ribbon cassette. Advance the ribbon, leaving no slack. 3. Place the cassette in the printer with the supply side in the front. 4. Close the media compartment drawer. 5. The printer will cycle through the lights as it adjusts the media. When the media is aligned, four blank test images are printed. Repairing a Ribbon Tear 1. Open the media compartment. 2. Remove the ribbon cassette. 3. Cut the ribbon. Carefully remove any remaining ribbon from inside the mechanism. 4. Reattach the ribbon using cellophane tape, as shown. 5. Advance the ribbon several times until the tape is no longer showing. 6. Make sure there is no slack in the ribbon. Replace the cassette in the printer. ATTENTION: Make sure the ribbon is placed in correctly. 7. Close the media compartment drawer. The printer will re-initialize. Removing a Paper Jam 1. Pull out the media compartment. 2. Release the paper compartment release lever. 3. Remove the scrap box. Set it aside. 4. Remove the paper roll from the printer. Pull any paper remaining from the printer. 5. Cut off any partially printed, wrinkled or otherwise inferior paper evenly with scissors. 6. Replace the paper and feed the paper into the printer. 7. Replace the scrap box, and close the media compartment drawer. 8. The printer will cycle through the lights as it adjusts the media. When the media is aligned, four blank test images are printed.
