GL4xxe Internal Rewinder-Dispenser Installation The installation procedure for the Internal Rewinder with front-mounted dispenser, involves three major steps, that are similar to the installation of the GL4xxe internal rewinder: 1) Removing the base of the printer. 2) Mounting the printer above the rewinder and reinstallation of all removed covers. 3) Mechanical adjustment of the rewinder.
1) Removing the base of the printer (cont’d) The front cover can now be removed. Figure 1c. Front cover can now be removed Remove the lock shaft located at the front of printer.

1) Removing the base of the printer (cont’d) Finally, carefully separate the base plate of the printer from the main chassis. This can be done by placing the printer on its side and pulling the base plate out. Figure 1h.
2) Mounting the printer above the rewinder-dispenser To facilitate easier mounting, it is recommended that you remove the front cover of the internal rewinder-dispenser beforehand. Front cover フロントカバー Pull down the side cover of the internal rewinder and remove two bind screws (M4x4) located as shown within the orange circles. 図 Side cover Figure 2a.

1) Mounting the printer above the rewinder A total of seven screws (cross recessed hexagonal bolt M4x10) are used to install the internal rewinder-dispenser to the printer chassis (Do not damage the PCB when using any tool such as screwdriver) Do not tighten all seven screws until you are sure the installation alignment is correct. Also check that all connectors have been reconnected. Two screws removed originally from the front of the printer, will be left unused. Figure 2d.
1) Mounting the printer above the rewinder (cont’d) If the front cover snaps into place correctly, you can proceed to further tighten the screws permanently, followed by inserting the thumbscrew used to secure the printer’s front cover in the first step of this guide. Figure 2g. Installing the thumbscrew Finally, connect the printer power cable as shown, routing it through the slot at the bottom of the internal rewinder. Figure 2h.
3) Mechanical adjustment of the dispenser Turn the printer ON and take it OFFLINE (by pressing the LINE button). ADVANCED MODE Go into the printer’s ADVANCED Mode and scroll to the Media Handling menu. Select Peel-Off to activate the peel-off and rewinder functions, and then exit the menu.
