Sequence of print dispensing:

• A print job is transferred to the printer (via database interface or memory card).

• The printer starts. When it does the dancer lever of the dancer unit moves up. The

printer stops as soon as the dancer lever has reached approximately the position

shown here [6 right].

• The dispenser dispenses a label as soon as there are enough printed labels in the

buffer loop and a start signal is received. This draws the dancer lever down, which

in turn causes the printer to print as long as there are still more labels to print until

the dancer lever has reached the upper end position.
