Build-in rewinder mode
The Rewinder Assembly of the Strip Module can be used in batch mode to take up the
printed media as a Built-in Rewinder.
(1) Remove the two Black Screws to detach the Front Plate.
(2) Attach the Rewinder Guide Plate enclosed with the optional Strip Module to the
Strip Plate with the SMW-4x8 sems screws.
(3) Insert the media under the Rewinder Guide Plate.
(4) Wind the media onto the Take-up Spool and fix it in position with the Take-up Clip.
(5) Rotate the Take-up Spool counterclockwise a few times to remove any slack in the
media.
(6) Set the Selection Switch mounted on the Rewinder Assembly to REWINDER
position.
Cut mode
When the optional Cutter Module is fitted, the media is automatically cut. A swing cutter
and a rotary cutter are available as an option, but they are used in the same way.
Insert the leading edge of the media into the Media Outlet of the Cutter Module.
13. If the loaded media is direct thermal media (a chemically treated surface), the media
loading procedure is now completed. Close the Ribbon Shaft Holder Plate, and turn
the Head Lever to Lock position to close. Then, close the Top Cover.
If the media is thermal transfer media, it is also necessary to load a ribbon. Refer to
Section 2.8 Loading the Ribbon.
CAUTION!
1. Be sure to cut the backing
paper of the label. Cutting
labels will cause the glue to
stick to the cutter which may
affect the cutter quality and
shorten the cutter life.
2. Use of tag paper when the
thickness exceeds the
specified value may affect
the cutter life.

The cutter is sharp, so care
must be taken not to injure
yourself when handling the
cutter.

sure to install the Ribbon Saving
Module (CE-CR4-01). Failure to
do this may cause a paper jam or
ribbon error.
