Chapter 5 General Operation This section provides an overview of the Wraptor operation process. 5.1 Creating, printing and wrapping labels The Wraptor works in conjunction with your computer and software applications included with the unit. The process flow is as follows: On your computer: 1. “Design labels on your computer using Brady’s LabelMark software. 2. Print” your completed labels to the Wraptor printer with the Print command. On the Wraptor printer: 1.
5.1.1 Wrap Quality Please heed the following tips as not doing so may effect the quality of your wrap: ♦ Make sure to hold the wires tight and straight during wrapping. Kinked or curved wire may cause spiraling or bubbling. ♦ Make sure to use the correct size label for the wire you intend to wrap. ♦ Do not use wire jackets with greasy coatings or the label will not wrap properly. ♦ Inspect the peel plate area—especially below—to ensure there are no stuck labels.
5.1.2 Print details When you “print” your labels to the Wraptor, the computer creates a print file: Print files are saved with the LabelMark file name and a PRN extension. The PRN file contains all the information necessary to print your labels. PRN files can be stored in the Wraptor’s internal memory, on your computer’s hard drive or on the Wraptor’s CompactFlash Memory Card.
5.3 The Wraptor Control Panel You control the Wraptor through the touch screen Control Panel. When you turn the Wraptor unit on, the touch screen initializes itself and the Wraptor Control Panel appears: Figure 11. Wraptor Control Panel on the Touch Screen The Control Panel has six tabs with printer-related commands: File, Run, Setup, Adj, Config and IP. Press a tab or button on the touch screen with a finger to select it. The following sections provide information on the tabs and their commands. 5.3.
Button Description Up, Down, Page Up, Page Down Use to highlight a print file in the list. Open Use to launch the highlighted file and begin printing/wrapping labels. The open command reads the print file and displays its first label in the Run tab. Preprint Use for pre-printed labels – Wraptor wraps but does not print the labels. The word PREPRINT is displayed in the Run tab. Delete Use to remove the highlighted file from the Wraptor internal memory.
5.3.2 Run Tab Commands The Run tab menu allows you to set the label to be wrapped (see Figure 14). This menu displays the current label, allows you to move to a different label and provides status information about the printing/wrapping process. Figure 14.
The following table describes the Run tab command buttons and status fields: NOTE: The “go to” buttons are disabled if the print file only contains one label. Button Description > Goes to the next label. < Goes to the previous label. >> Goes to the last label in the file. << Goes to the first label in the file. Goto… Prompts for the label number to jump to. Reset Sets the Count (number of labels wrapped) to zero. Wrap Shows the operating mode of the printer: Auto or Manual.
5.3.3 Setup Tab Commands The Setup tab menu allows you to load labels and ribbons and to clear jams. Figure 16. Setup Tab Menu The following table describes the Setup tab command buttons: Button Description Load Labels Shuttles the print/wrapper mechanism back, tilts the print head open and displays the Load Labels dialog. To load labels: • Physically load the labels in the Wraptor unit as described in Load Label Material. • Press Feed Label until a label dispenses.
