P. PRINTHEAD LOCATION - FRONT TO BACK:
Figure 3.16
The printhead assembly can be moved backward
or forward to locate the printed image on the
closure. Before adjusting be sure the top of the
bandhead is rotated back against the spacer (Refer
to Figure 3.18)
1. Loosen the two button head screws that secure
the bearing bracket to the top plate. Slide the
assembly as needed. Use a square along the
back edge of the bearing bracket and the side
of the top plate. Whenever the printhead is
moved, the ink roll arm mount will need to be
repositioned. If the printhead assembly is moved
forward (toward the bag closing location), the ink
roll arm mount may have to be moved out of the
way first. Do not run the machine under power
until the ink roll arm is repositioned properly.
Refer to Part Q, this section.
Q. INK ROLL ARM POSITION:
Figure 3.17 - 3.20
The ink roll arm must be positioned so the
mechanism does not bind and the type face is
completely inked. Manually depress and release
the ink roll arm to determine if it operates freely.
Use only the 0S-006 spring. If needed, clean
and oil the shaft of the ink roll arm.

When the printhead is manually depressed, the ink
roll arm should clear the flange of the cover mount
bracket by 1/4" to 1/2" (6mm to 13mm).
1. To adjust, loosen the two screws, which secure
the ink roll arm mount to the top track (Figure
3.18).
2. Slide the mount as needed. Force the side of
the slot against the two screws to square it.
Verify that the ink roll is centered side to side
with the closure strip.
3. After tightening the screws, check the
adjustment by manually depressing the print-
head before applying power to the machine.
