application with the Tabber/Labeler. Avoid using tabs/labels with little or no contrast
between tab/label and backing. Less than 2 clicks on the tab/label sensitivity adjustment
will not allow unit to run properly. Doubles and misfeeds are a symptom of the wrong label
being used.

FAN-FOLDED TABS
1. Remove the top exit roller from the plastic brackets.
2. Place a stack of fan-folded tabs on the tray with the tabs facing up.
3. Remove the first nine inches of tabs from the backing paper to form a leader.
4. Disengage the label advance rollers [Figure 4A] by turning LABEL PRESSURE knob
[Figure 3A] to the OFF position.
5. Thread the tabs into the L-250/350 following the TAB THREADING DIAGRAM
[Figure 5a].
6. Position the tabs by moving the entire
stack to desired location. Loosen the
guides [Figure 3B] and align them
with the stack of tabs.
7. Tighten guides.
8. Pull the backing paper until the first
tab starts to peel off.
9. Slide folding guide spring [Figure 6A]
to a position directly below sensor
guide [Figure 6B].
10. Turn the LABEL ADVANCE [Figure 3D]
COUNTER-CLOCKWISE until a tab is in
the slot [Figure 6C].
11. Align folding guide spring [Figure 6A] so that
the tab is centered in the slot {Figure 6C].
12. Remove tab from the slot and reinstall media pressure roller.
13. Set media height by adjusting MEDIA THICKNESS knob [Figure 3E].

SETTING UP THE L-350 TO APPLY STAMPS
ROLL OF STAMPS
1. Install the TR-10 Reel Assembly on
the machine by hooking the rear
bracket to the center tie bar of the
head assembly. Pivot the reel
assembly forward to seat the front
bracket over the front tie bar of the
head assembly.
NOTE: In order to run the stamp at a
position within 1/4” of the edge of
the media, install the 90-103-02B
Right Side Guide supplied with the
machine. This guide will permit the
positioning of the stamp at the top
edge of the media.
2. To position the reel, slide the whole
assembly on the tie bars until the tracking
guides [Figure 7A] are over the desired
location of the stamp. Lock the reel in place with the thumbscrew [Figure 7B].
3. Remove the Reel support guide [Figure 7C] by pulling it off the reel shaft.
4. Mount a spool of stamps so it unwinds in a counterclockwise direction with the
stamps facing up. Reinstall the support guide removed in step 4.
5. Route the stamp supply around the brake roller [figure 7D] to the guide roller [Figure
7E] in such a manner that the stamps contact the brake roller while the backing
paper contacts the guide roller.
6. Loosen the two tracking guide screws and separate the guides. Route the stamp
supply between the guides and clamp support rails.
7. Remove the first nine inches of stamps from the backing paper to form a leader.
8. Disengage the label advance rollers [Figure 4A] by turning LABEL PRESSURE
knob [Figure 3A] clockwise to the OFF position.

9. Thread the stamps into the L-350 following the LABEL THREADING DIAGRAM
[Figure 5].
10. Position the stamps by moving the entire stack to desired location. Lock the reel in
place with the thumbscrew [Figure 7B].
11. Tighten guides.
12. Pull the backing paper until the first stamp starts to peel off. Then set the label
sensor adjustment.
13. Slide the folding guide spring, so that the
media sensor [8A] is positioned to the left
of the sensor guide [8B].
NOTE: The folding guide spring contains
the media sensor and must be positioned
per the illustration. Do not position the
media sensor directly below the backing
paper or it may stay interrupted, creating
an error condition.
14. Set media height by adjusting MEDIA
THICKNESS knob [Figure 3E].
15. Position tab/label switch to L position.
16. Run a test sample to check position. Adjust the position using the LABEL
POSITION adjustment on the control panel.

LABEL SENSOR ADJUSTMENT
THE L-250/350 HAS BEEN FACTORY CALIBRATED TO DETECT THE PRESENCE AND
ABSENCE OF LABELS UNDER MOST CONDITIONS. HOWEVER, WITH THE
VARIATION OF BOTH LABEL AND BACKING PAPER DENSITY, IT MAY BECOME
NECESSARY TO FINE-ADJUST THE SYSTEM.
1. Locate the LABEL SENSOR
ADJUSTMENT knob [Figure
9A] and red light emitting diode
[Figure 9B] on the non-operator
side cover. Turn the switch fully
COUNTER-CLOCKWISE to
position 1.
2. Thread labels/tabs/stamps into
the labeler following the
diagram [Figure 5 or Figure 8].
3. Turn the LABEL ADVANCE
[Figure 3D] knob until the first
label (or tab) just starts to peel
off the backing paper.
4. Turn the LABEL SENSOR
ADJUSTMENT [Figure 9A]
knob CLOCKWISE until the red
L.E.D. is illuminated.
5. Release the label pressure
roller (turn it off) and pull the
label material approximately
two inches out of the machine.
This ensures the backing paper
is the only part, which is seen
by the label sensor. The red
L.E.D. will not come on at this
time.
6. Turn the LABEL SENSOR ADJUSTMENT knob CLOCKWISE and count the number
of clicks the switch makes until the red L.E.D. comes on.
7. Now turn the switch COUNTERCLOCKWISE half the number of clicks that you
counted.
EXAMPLE: the light comes on at the sixth click. Now remove the tab from in front of
the sensor and turn the switch six clicks CLOCKWISE. The light comes on again. Now
turn the switch three positions back or COUNTERCLOCKWISE.
THE SYSTEM IS NOW CALIBRATED TO THIS TYPE LABEL.
THIS STEP CONCLUDES THE INITIAL SETUP AND ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES.
