The voltage applied to the printhead is the same voltage applied to the cutter module. The
specific voltage applied to the cutter motor is controlled by the home position
potentiometer.
There are three cases in which you must adjust the cutter module’s home position
potentiometer:
• Before placing a new cutter module into service.
• If a new printhead is installed on the printer.
• If a cutter module is installed on a printer other than the one it was previously
adjusted for.
1. Turn the printer power Off (O). Load media and ribbon if not already installed.
2. Attach the new cutter module to the cutter cable connector on the printer and lay it
on the table or on the inside of the printer’s open front door.
3. Perform a Pause and Cancel Key test, press, and hold PAUSE and CANCEL while
turning the printer On (l).
4. Refer to Figure 4-25 on page 4-33. While the labels are printing, observe where the
sensor disc on the cutter module stops after completing a cut cycle. It can be viewed
between the outer cover, and the side plate. The desired stopping position of the
censor disc is when the embossed line on the sensor disc is aligned with the edge
of the side plate.
5. Refer to Figure 4-26 on page 4-33. Adjust the home position potentiometer with the
potentiometer adjustment tool (Zebra part # 01428) until the embossed line on the
sensor disc is in alignment with the side plate edge.
6. Turn the power Off (O), and install the cutter module.
Caution:
Use caution around cutter blades. Keep fingers away from blades.
Note • Do not mount the cutter module at this time.
Note • Do not allow the printed labels to pass through the cutter module. Let them
accumulate on the table or floor.
