QLS-4100 X 23
Compressed Air Connection
Preparing the Air Regulator
When you receive the QLS-4100 X Printer, the Air Intake Regulator is ready for
operation. The air pressure regulator has been set at the factory for the proper air
pressure. You only need to connect your in-house air supply to the printer.
QuickLabel Systems can supply you with a portable, quiet air compressor suitable
for office use should you not have a source of compressed air.
Connecting the Air Supply
Obtain a suitable source of in-house air. Be sure to turn off the supply of air to this
connection before making any connections.
Attach an appropriate threaded fitting to the Air Intake Regulator using Teflon tape
on the threads to seal the fitting.
Attach your in-house air source to the Air Intake Regulator.
Turn on the supply of air to this connection.
Check the indicator dial to ensure that the regulator is set to 70 PSI.
If adjustment is required, pull down on the regulator knob to unlock it and turn the
knob until the desired pressure level is reached:
• Turn the knob clockwise to increase air pressure
• Turn the knob counterclockwise to decrease air pressure
When finished adjusting the pressure, push the regulator knob upwards to lock it
into place.
Note
The QLS-4100 X can be used without compressed air, but the
RibbonRation system cannot be used. Refer to Chapter 5 for information
on how to disable the RibbonRation system.
