3.0 Installation
3.1 Preparing for the installation
3.1.1 AC Power Line
NOTE: AVERY DENNISON requires that the minimum electrical service be 10 Amps @ 115VAC or 6 Amps @
230VAC. This will allow you to plug the SNAP 700 printer,
PC, and any additional support or service equipment into the same service. We highly recommend that the printer and its accessories be on a dedicated circuit.
The electrical service supplying power to the SNAP 700 printer or to peripheral equipment connected to the SNAP 700 printer should meet standard electrical code practices, including proper grounding and neutrals.
3.1.2 Location Considerations
The SNAP 700 printer weighs 60 pounds (27.2 Kg) and requires a table of sufficient quality and strength to handle this load. The printer requires an area of approximately 72" wide x 30" deep x 32" high (1.8 m x 76 cm x 81 cm). The host
PC (if used) and any printer options will increase the required area. AVERY
DENNISON recommends using an industrial type worktable. Refer to Figure 1 below.
The SNAP 700 printer is designed for easy operator accessibility to the printer controls and components. Select your SNAP 700 printer’s location to meet the following criteria:
1. Physical demands on the operator will dictate proper height of the table supporting the printer. Ensure the operator has comfortable access to the printer. Refer to Figure 1.
2. Allow enough space for smooth flow of materials that the operator will load on the printer as well as space for processing the finished product from the printer.
3. While AVERY DENNISON has designed the printer to be reasonably quiet, select an area where repetitious noise from printing and cutting processes is acceptable. This is not an office space printer
, it’s a production machine.
CAUTION: Each customer must take responsibility to ensure the workstation created for the SNAP 700 printer meets the recommended requirements to ensure optimal operation of the printer.

4.0 Operation
4.1 Loading Supplies
Your SNAP 700 printer is designed with upper and optional lower ink supply stations. . The ink supply station setup is dictated by the option of the printer your ordered. There is no way to change this setup at your location.
The ink arbors have a self-center guide to locate the roll of ink to ensure smooth tracking through the machine.
The ink cores have splines on their inside surfaces. These splines align with the grooves in the ink arbors. Splines allow the printer to control the tension of the ink ribbon during printing, minimizing wrinkling and optimizing print quality.
NOTE: Only use the white plastic cores on the SNAP printers. If you have a black plastic core they are design for the Avery Dennison 9800 series printers.
4.1.1 Installing Ink to the Top Ink Supply Station
1. Install an empty ink core on the upper ink rewind arbor. It is important that the core be the same width or wider as the core of the ink being used.
NOTE: The empty ink core should be the same width as the ink supply roll.
a. Rotate the core slightly to align the splines and grooves on the arbor. Slide it gently onto the arbor until it contacts the back core stop. b. If the front core locator is not exposed turn the black knob on the end of the arbor counterclockwise to bring it past the end of the core. To clamp the core rotate the black knob clockwise to center the core on the arbor.
See Figure 7.
CAUTION: Do not over tighten the core locators. Little to no pressure is needed to keep the core centered. Over tightening can damage the plastic stops.
CAUTION: To avoid damaging the print head, the ink supply roll should be ¼ inch (6 mm) wider than the stock.

4.1.2 Installing Ink to the Bottom Ink Supply Station
Installing Ink on the Bottom Print Station is done in the same way as the Top
Print Station, except that the ink runs up over the Turn bar, across the print head to the rewind arbor.
4.1.3 Loading the Stock
Before loading a roll of stock, you will need to be familiar with the following parts of the SNAP 700 printer (Refer to Figures 9 and 10).
The Stock Arbor is designed to clamp the core of the stock supply rolls to hold them in place during printing operations. This function provides back tension which helps keep the stock straight while it moves to the center of the print head.
By rotating the stock arbor knob, you can adjust for roll widths ranging in size from ½ inch to 5 inches (12.7 mm to 127 mm). This helps keep the stock straight while it moves to the center of the print head. To function properly, the stock roll must be wound firmly and centered on the core with no telescoping of the roll.
There are no other adjustments to the stock arbor.
The Stock (Web) Guide is located between the Stock Arbor and Sensor Module
Station to guides the stock through the machine toward the center of the print head. The black knob located at the end of the web guide controls the width of the guides. Turning the knob clockwise will widen the web guides, while counterclockwise turns will narrow the web guides.
The Upper and Lower Print Stations on the SNAP 700 printer are stationary.
The rollers swing open and closed for threading and printing. These rollers are held in position for printing with latches on both the inside and outside end of the rollers.
NOTE: If you are printing two-sided labels, both print rollers must be closed in order for the printer to operate.
If a two-sided label design is sent to the printer and the lower print roller is open, the Error LED will light up and the printer will stop. If you are printing single-sided labels, the lower print roller should remain open so the ink rolls will not rotate.
The Stock Feed is the assembly located in front of the knife. The Feed has a knob, which is used to manually advance the material through the knife, the nip roller, and into the stacker. (See figure 10)
New rolls of Supply Stock are sealed and packaged individually. When you are ready to load the stock, remove the packaging and follow the steps below.
1. Remove the tape holding the end of the supply stock to the outer part of the roll. To avoid damaging the rollers or print heads, use scissors to cut off any portion of the supply stock that has adhesive on it.
2.
Rotate the unwind knob clockwise to retract the “fingers”. Open the assembly so the back locator hub and front locking fingers are wider that the material.

3. To install the stock supply roll, begin with the leading end at the top of the roll pulling off towards the stacker.
4. Slide the stock roll onto the Stock Arbor (see Figure 9).
5. Rotate the Stock Arbor knob counter-clockwise quickly to extend the fingers that hold the supply roll in place.
6. With all print rollers in the open position, pull the stock from the top of the supply roll, and over the Decurler Roller.

CAUTION: To prevent damage to the print head, do not use butt splices.
The SNAP 700 printer is designed to allow for fast, frequent changing and loading of stock and ink. We recommend re-threading the stock rather than to using a butt splice. If you determine that splicing is faster for threading, tape the ends of the stock together. Turn the feed roller and advance the splice through the printer. Do not try and run the splice through the printer as it can cause damage.

4.2 Sending a Print Job to the Printer
The print job tells the printer what layout to print, what information to print on the label, and how many labels to print.
Getting a print job to the printer depends on how your company system is set up.
You may be using AVERY DENNISON’s tag and label design program PCMate
Platinum, or you may be using a special application on a PC or a mainframe.
Consult your supervisor on how your company sends print jobs.
4.3 Printing Labels
4.3.1 The Control Panel
The Control Panel on your
SNAP 700 printer is located at the top of the machine.
Figure 11 shows the control buttons and lights displayed on the printer. The buttons allow you to control the printer, and the lights indicate the status of the printer.
Figure 11. Control Panel
The Start/Stop Button is a blue button that starts and stops printing. If there are labels ready to print, pressing the Start/Stop Button starts printing. If the printer is running, pressing the Start/Stop Button stops printing.
The Ready Light is a green light that indicates the printer has been powered up, completed its diagnostics, and is ready to accept print jobs.
The Data Light green light that indicates you have sent a print job to the printer and it is ready to print. If the Data Light is flashing, you are at end of day (see section 3.3.4).
The Supply Light is a yellow light indicates that: either the stock or ink supply has run out and needs reloading or the stacker is full. It may also come on if you have an accessory attached and there is a problem with it.
The Error Light is a red light that indicates a problem exists somewhere in the printer.
The Voice Button is a yellow button and will play a message describing the status of the printer. Use it to determine causes of printer issues. If the printer is printing, pressing the Voice Button will stop printing.

4.3.2 Printing
Sending a print job to the printer causes the Data light to come on. Press the
Start/Stop Button to start printing.
When printing starts, the stacker will move the platform to the correct position.
Then the printer will start printing labels.
As the printer prints, the cut labels will drop onto the top of the stack. As the stack grows, the stacker platform moves down so that the top of the stack stays in the same position.
4.3.3 Handling the Leader
The printer may generate a “leader”. A leader is a longer piece of stock that may be blank or may have some partially printed labels. Certain errors and actions, such as opening a printhead, cause the printer to lose track of labels it has printed. The printer reprints these labels. Therefore, discard the leader and do not attempt to use the labels.
When the printer creates a leader, grab it as it comes out of the nip rollers and pull it out of the stacker when the printer does the first cut. (If you are not using the stacker, or you are using some other accessory such as a Rewinder, you may need to handle the leader differently.)
4.3.4 Feeding the stock
To feed the stock, press and hold the Start/Stop button. After a short delay, the printer will feed tape though the printer. To stop the feed, release the Start/Stop button. After a certain amount of stock, the knife will cut.
If you are in the middle of printing a batch, feeding the tape will cause the printed labels between the printhead and the knife to feed through without cutting. These labels will be re-printed the next time you start printing. The batch quantity will be correct.
4.3.5 Errors
The printer may encounter a problem during printing. It will stop and turn either the Supply or Error light on. The Supply light indicates a problem with either the ink or the stock, or the stacker is full. The error light indicates a some other problem.
Determine the problem by:
1. Pressing the Voice button. A message will play that describes the problem.
2. Checking the Printer Status box on the Virtual Control Panel in PCMate
Platinum. See section 5.3 for a description of the Virtual Control Panel.
Correct the problem and press the Start Button to start printing again.
Classification: Avery Dennison - Public
38
User’s Manual—SNAP™ 700 Printer
NOTE: If the error condition no longer exists, the printer will start. It is not necessary to press the Start button twice as is required with previous AVERY DENNISON printer models. If the error continues to recur, contact your local AVERY DENNISON representative.
4.3.6 RFID Printed Errors
RFID errors will show as printed stripes on the label.
Write failed (“locked tag”) Write failed (“no write”)
4.3.7 End of Day
The printer has a feature that minimizes the production of leaders between print jobs. When finished all print jobs, the printer stops with a few labels unprinted.
The Data Light flashes. Sending another print job allows the printer finish the labels from the previous print job before starting the new job. This way the printer does not produce a leader and minimizes waste of stock and ink.
If all the jobs are finished or a stock and ink change is needed, and the data light is flashing, press the Start/Stop Button. The printer will print the remaining labels of the last print job. Do whatever is necessary. The printer will produce a leader before printing the next job.
4.3.8 Clearing Print Jobs
To clear print jobs, press and hold both the Start/Stop and Voice buttons together. After about 2 seconds, the voice says
“Clearing Current Batch.” If there is only one print job, the Data light will go out.
To clear just the current print job, release the buttons. To clear all print job, continue to hold the buttons until the voice says
, “Clearing All Batches.”

4.4 Using Pre-Printed Stock
When using pre-printed or die-cut stock, the printer must detect a sense mark on the stock in order to print in the proper place.
The SNAP 700 printer comes with a through-hole sensor standard. The sensor, mounted in the Sensor Module, will detect a hole or slot any location across the width of the stock. Adjusted the sensor position to the hole or slot to register.
The printer also comes with top reflective sensor standard. This sensor, built into the same through-hole sensor, detects a black sense mark printed on the top side of the stock.
The bottom reflective sensor is also standard on the SNAP 700. This sensor is built into the through-hole sensor and will detect a black sense mark printed on the bottom of white tape or tag stock.
Two contrast sensors are options. Both are dimensionally identical and use a fiber-optic pickup tube mounted in the up-right frame with the tip protruding into a slot in the left guide shaft. The contrast sensor detects most sense marks. The color/contrast sensor detects colored and more difficult sense marks.
The fiber-optic pickup tube is moveable and will detect sense marks across the entire width of the supply. Refer to appendix 7 for instructions on teaching these sensors.
4.4.1 Selecting the Sensor
Select the sensor one of two ways. First, the sensor type can be selected as part of the format (see the PCMate Platinum manual or the PCL manual for details).
Second, override the format sensor using the Virtual Control Panel. If the Format sensor type is selected, the printer will use the sensor specified in the format. If one of the other sensor types is selected, the printer will use that sensor and ignore the selection in the format.
The printer does not know if the optional sensors are installed. If one of these sensors is selected but not installed, the printer will not operate properly.
4.4.2 Aligning the Stock to the Sensor
In order to work properly, the stock must be aligned to the sensor before starting to print. To do this, close one or both print-head rollers (depending on whether the label is single- or double-sided) and use the Auxiliary Feed knob until the sense mark is just to the left of the sensor. Then rotate the ink rewind arbors to take up any slack and press the Start Button.
This alignment must be done anytime the printer would normally create a leader. This will happen after most errors.
Do not align the stock after a normal stop or a stacker full.
Classification: Avery Dennison - Public
40
User’s Manual—SNAP™ 700 Printer
4.4.3 Aligning the Sensor to the Stock
The SNAP700 has two sensors that operate together to provide the hole, top reflective, and bottom reflective sensor functions. These sensors are small black rectangular plastic modules that move across the web by turning the adjusting knob. One sensor is above the web and the other is below the web. There are two “dimples” in the sensor body that mark the sense position.
When using a hole sensor mark, align the inboard dimple with the hole in the web. When using either top or bottom reflective sense mark, align the mid-point between the dimples with the printed mark.
If the sensor is not properly aligned when printing is started, the printer will stop with the Supply light flashing. Pressing the Voice button will give an error message that will identify the type of sensor. For example, if the format calls for a hole sense mark (or the front Panel Sensor Override is set to Hole), the message will be “Hole Sensor Calibration Error”. This error will also appear in the Virtual Front Panel.
In this mode, the Supply light will flash at a rate that is proportional to the alignment of the sensor to the sense mark. If the sensor is not aligned with the sensor mark, the light will flash slower. If the sensor is aligned with the sense mark, the light will flash rapidly or stay on.
To align the sensor to the sense mark, move the stock so that the sensor mark shows in the slot under the sensor. Then adjust the sensor across the web until the Supply light flashes rapidly or stays on. For best alignment, move the sensor to the point where the light flashes most rapidly, and then continue to move the sensor in the same direction until the light starts to flash more slowly. Then move the sensor back to a point in between those two points.
Press Start again to begin printing.

4.5.1 Running Test Patterns
Your SNAP 700 printer offers you two Test Patterns to run before you proceed to production.
Test Pattern 1 (Narrow Setup Test Pattern), is a format designed to run on a 2” wide fabric. It consists of a solid line down the middle on the front and back of the label and a solid line across the web that is exactly 1” from the cut, along with a 2” wide brick pattern. These lines are helpful in adjusting print position to compensate for mechanical tolerances in the printer, and the brick pattern can be used to detect dot out in the head.
Test Pattern 2 (Wide Setup Test Pattern) is similar to Test Pattern 1, except that it is designed to run on a 5” wide stock.
Test Pattern 3 and 4 (Custom Test Pattern 1 and Custom Test Pattern 2) more closely resemble actual labels and can be used to make adjustments to the printhead pressure and contrast (see section 4.1.1 and 4.1.2).
When you have determined which Test Pattern you wish to operate, use the appropriate procedure.
NOTE: The printer is set up to print the selected label test format in a very large quantity. Manually start and stop the printing to make any necessary adjustments and to end the test run.

5.0 Making Adjustments
5.1 Print Head Adjustments
The print stations on the SNAP 700 printer are stationary. The print rollers swing open for loading stock and ink and are closed when the machine is printing. The rollers are held in the print position with a latch on both the inside and outside end of the rollers.
When printing labels, there are three adjustments you may need to make to the print stations: (1) adjust the print head pressure, (2) adjust the contrast, which controls print darkness (density), and (3) slide the print head pressure spring toward the front or rear of the machine across the width of the printhead.
5.1.1 Adjusting Print Head Pressure
Each print head has one print head pressure knob, screwed into a slide block
(see Figure 13). Change print head pressure settings as follows:
CAUTION: For extended print head life, use the lightest print pressure setting whenever possible.
To increase or decrease print head pressure, turn the pressure adjustment knob.
Turn the knob down to increase head pressure and up to decrease pressure. The knob can be backed out of the head bracket if loosened too much. Replace the pressure knob assembly into the threaded hole.
CAUTION: Ensure that both knobs on the print head have about the same spacing from the head mount bracket.

User’s Manual—SNAP™ 700 Printer
5.1.2 Adjusting Density (Darkness)
The contrast knob for adjusting print density (darkness) is located on the front of each print station (see Figure 13). You may adjust the contrast knob while printing labels.
The nominal contrast setting is in the center of the rotation.
1. To increase print density, rotate the contrast knob clockwise.
2. To decrease print density, rotate the contrast knob counterclockwise.
You can manually rotate the contrast knob 270 degrees. At maximum value, the print will not become any darker. In fact, it may actually begin to get lighter.
CAUTION: For extended print head life, use the lowest print contrast the produces acceptable print quality.
5.2 Adjusting the Stacker
The stacker on your SNAP 700 printer is adjustable in four ways: the position of the stacker on the mounting pins, the height of the stack, the angle at which labels are accumulated in the stack, and the angle of the platform. Different settings of these adjustments may be needed depending on the length and width of the labels being printed and the material being used. There are no incorrect settings, only adjustments that allow the stacker to better accommodate the size and type of material used for the label being printed and stacked. You will soon learn the settings that work best for your labels.
5.2.1 Stacker Position
The stacker slides in and out on the mounting pins. This allows for proper positioning of the stacker for the width of the label you are printing. The stacker should be set so that the back wall of the stacker is just behind the back end of the label where it comes out of the nip rollers.
The stacker mount bracket has a thumbscrew that locks the stacker in position and also stiffens the mounting.
Adjusting the stacker angle (see section 4.2.3) will move the position of the back wall. If you adjust the stacker angle, be sure to readjust the stacker position.
5.2.2 Toggle Switch
The stacker has two electronic sensors that set where the top of the stack is.
Depending on the size of the label to be collected on the stacker, use the toggle switch to select from the two different electronic sensors (See Figure 5 and 11).
There is no correct or incorrect switch setting. Use the setting that works best.
1. Determine the size of label to be printed.
Classification: Avery Dennison - Public
User’s Manual—SNAP™ 700 Printer

a. For short feeds ranging from 1 - 2 inches (25 mm
– 51 mm), use the upper sensor. b. For long feed and/or woven labels, use the lower sensor.
2. Depress the top portion of the toggle switch to use the upper sensor.
3. Depress the bottom portion of the toggle switch to use the lower sensor.
5.2.3 Stacker Angle
The angle of the stacker is adjustable, and can be tipped out a maximum of 20 degrees at the bottom from the vertical position shown in Figure 5. Since there is no single stacker angle that is best for all label lengths and types of materials, you can adjust the stacker angle to best accommodate each run.
1. When the feed is 2 inches (51 mm) or longer, or when using coated tapes, the stacker works well with the bottom tipped out.
2. When using woven tapes, the stacker should be vertical or almost vertical.

2.
Place a cut label on the stacker platform and slide it into the back corner.
3. Move the label stop to within 1/8 inch (3 mm) of the end of the label.
5.2.5 Static brush
The static brush has been mounted with a thumbscrew for easy adjustment to help guide and control labels into the stacker. The brush should contact the material as it exits the nip rollers. The static brush should be maintained in good condition for the best stacking.
In general
– a light pressure is sufficient to stack well, but long feeds will require slightly more pressure.
Keep the static brush parallel to the nip roller mount bracket.

5.3.3 Print/Cut Adjust Tab
The cut adjust will help the printer cut in the right place with relation to the sense mark on pre-printed tape. Cut adjust is found the Print/Cut Adjust tab.
Use cut adjust with pre-printed tape only. Put cut adjust to zero when using blank tape and use print adjust to position the print properly on the label relative to the cut.
When the cut adjust is set correctly, the printer will cut the label at the leading edge of the sense mark. If the cut is not in the right place, increase the cut adjust value to move the cut to the right (looking at the printer) or decrease the value to move the cut to the left. Each step is 0.003”/0.076mm.
The print adjust allows you to move the print with relation to the cut, one print adjustment for each print station.
Use the Narrow Test Pattern to set the print adjust. The test pattern has a line printed across the tape that is 1” from the cut. Run a few labels and measure the distance from the cut to the line. Then, increase the print adjustment value to move the print to the right, or decrease the print adjustment value to move the print to the left. Each step is 0.003”/0/076mm. Repeat until the line is in the correct place.
Facing the printer, the inboard side is closest to the printer body, and an operator side is closest to the operator. Use the following guide to understand the numbers.

Figure 22c: Print adjust and width adjust
Image adjust across the width of the printer is available through Firmware 3.36 and above, using PCMate 7.6.2 and above.
NOTE:
Don’t use print and cut adjusts to “fine-tune” a format.
Rather correct any print position problems in the format and use these adjustments to correct printer variation only.
Otherwise, you have to adjust each format before printing.

5.3.4 Selecting the Printer Language
The SNAP 700 printer has the capability of presenting both text and voice messages in multiple languages.
The printer is shipped with several languages installed. When performing an upgrade, however, the Operating System (OS) upgrade file contains only the
English language messages. A separate language upgrade is required to add any new prompts in other languages.
In the Virtual Control panel, click on the
“Options” tab.
To select the printer language, click on the arrow in the Language box to drop down a list of available languages. Click on the desired language. Then click on
Apply or Close to activate the selected language.
Selecting the printer language does not change the PCMate
Platinum language. See the PCMate Platinum manual for information about changing languages.
5.3.5 Setting the Date and Time
The SNAP 700 printer has a built-in clock and calendar. You may change the date and time as follows:
In the Virtual Control Panel, click on the Options Tab. The current printer date and time is shown. You may change the values in the Date or Time box, or you can simply click on the Sync to PC button to set the printer to the same date and time as the PC.

5.3.6 Enabling or Disabling the Cutter
You may disable the cutter in order to use an accessory such as a Rewinder. If the cutter is enabled, it will cut according to the Cut Count selected in the format.
If the cutter is disabled, it will not cut between labels.
The optional Sonic Knife will be also be enabled or disabled using this command.
In the Virtual Control Panel, access the Options Tab. Click on the arrow in the
Cutter box. Select Enabled to run the cutter or Disabled to turn the cutter off.
5.3.7 Selecting the Print Speed
The print speed is normally set in the format. You may override the format setting and specify the speed you want the printer to run. This is useful if you have formats that were designed for other AVERY DENNISON printers.
In the Virtual Control Panel, select the Options tab. Click on the arrow in the Print
Speed box to drop down a menu of print speed choices. Click on the desired choice and click on Apply or Close to set the print speed.
The available choices are:
Format
– use the print speed specified in the format. If the print speed does not exist in the SNAP 700 printer, it will use the closest print speed that is not greater. For example, if the format was designed for a 676 printer and calls for 5 ips, the SNAP 700 printer will use 4.5 ips.
Translate
– uses the corresponding speed from the printer specified in the format. For example, if the format was designed for a 676 printer and called for 5 ips (the third speed in the printer’s speed list of 3, 4, and 5 ips), the SNAP 700 printer would use 6 ips, which is the third speed in its speed list of 3, 4.5, 6, and 7 ips.
3, 4.5, 6 or 7
– selects the desired print speed.
5.3.8 Selecting the Flagging Mode
This selection allows you override the flagging mode specified in the format. It is set in the same way as the Print Speed.
The available selections are:
Format
– uses the flagging mode specified in the format
Side-step
– This selection is for the High Volume Stacker, which is not available for the SNAP 700 printer. Do not select this.
Disabled
– Disables flagging. No flagging will be done.

User’s Manual—SNAP™ 700 Printer
5.3.9 Selecting the Sense Mark Type
This selection allows you to override the sense mark type (none, top reflective or bottom reflective) selected in the format. Its main purpose is to allow you to activate the optional Contrast Sensor, since older formats or formats for other
AVERY DENNISON printers will not have the Contrast Sensor type.
This option is set in the same way as Print Speed.
The available selections are:
Format
– use the sense mark type specified in the format
Top Reflective, Bottom Reflective, Contrast
– selects the sensor type
Disabled
– ignores the sense mark. This is useful when designing a format using blank tape to avoid wasting the more expensive pre-printed tape.
The printer does not detect whether the Bottom Reflective or Contrast Sensor is installed. If you select a sensor type that is not installed, the printer will not print properly.
5.3.10 Setting the Default Transfer
The transfer type specifies the type of tape and ink that is being used. For example, transfer type 97 is 4800TWT fabric with CT1111 ink. The transfer type tells the printer how much energy is needed to print when using that tape and ink.
See Appendix 2 for a list of available transfer types.
Be sure to specify the transfer type in the format. However, if a transfer type is not specified in the format, the printer uses the default transfer type.
PCMate Platinum always includes the transfer type in the format. If you are using PCMate Platinum, you do not need to specify a default transfer type.

8.0 Upgrading the Printer Firmware
8.1 Introduction
The SNAP 700 printer firmware can be updated electronically using “UPG” files received from Avery Dennison.
A “UPG” file is a software file with “.upg” as an extension. Files are either “zip” files, which must be extracted/unzipped, or UPG files.
To upgrade the printer firmware, you will need a “UPG” file.
After receiving the “UPG” file, you may upgrade your printer one of three methods way:
PCMate Platinum can perform the upgrade. This takes approximately 15-
20 minutes. Please be patient.
USB flash drive containing UPG file inserted into one of the USB slots on the back of the printer can perform the upgrade. This takes approximately
4-5 minutes.
The Ethernet Interface Option if installed can be used to upgrade through the printer’s web server.
8.2 Selecting the UPG file
The UPG file you need will depend on the motherboard in the SNAP printer being upgraded. If you are unsure, you can remove the back cover and see the electronic board installed in the bottom of the printer that is horizontal.
Please see the information posted on the support website: http://myrbis.averydennison.com/support/firmware-apparel.html
Download and review the firmware upgrade procedure.
As of Jan 2017, the most recent firmware is 3.36. This supports the latest 3 motherboards for the SNAP (ASUS, Advantech and BCM).
8.3 Getting the UPG file
8.3.1 Getting UPG file using D2Comm
The easiest way to get the UPG file is through D2Comm. If you have a D2Comm account,
request your D2Comm Coordinator to schedule an upgrade for your account.
Classification: Avery Dennison - Public
User’s Manual—SNAP™ 700 Printer
73
Log in to D2Comm, select “In Plant”, and then “Retrieve Updates”.
The upgrade file will automatically download.
Start PCMate to upgrade. There is no need to unzip this file as it will already be a UPG file.
8.3.2 Getting UPG file without using D2Comm
You may download the upgrade file as follows:
1. Go to www.monarch.averydennison.com.
2.
On the left, click “SUPPORT”, then “Printer Utilities, Firmware & Drivers”
3. Next in the Firmware second (2 nd
one down), click “Apparel Models – SNAP 500
& SNAP 700
”
4. Choose one of 3 upgrade files. For example, for version 3.36.15.10: a. V3_36_15_10.upg
– This is the complete upgrade and includes English and all alternate language messages and prompts b. V3_36_10_10_OS.upg
– This is the upgrade with English only c. V_ALT_LANGUAGES.upg
– This upgrade contains only the alternate language messages and prompts. This version does NOT contain the printer operating system.
The file that downloads has “zip” extension. You must unzip and extract the UPG file from this download.
8.4 Performing the Upgrade
8.4.1 Unzipping the file
1. Once you have received the upgrade file through D2Comm or the website, make sure it has the “.upg” extension or is an UPG file “Type”. If it has the “.zip” extension, then unzip/extract the file to the desired folder.
This is the .upg file that the printer uses. It is inside the .zip file.
Extract/unzip this file to get the .upg file

If you have more than one printer connected to the PC, they will all show in this window. If you leave the Upgrade Schedule box at
Upgrade Now (see below), all the printers will be upgraded, one at a time.
5. In the box under Upgrade Schedule, it will say Upgrade Now. If you click on the box, a drop down list will offer the following choices:
- Upgrade Now
– this will cause the printer to be upgraded when you click on the Start Upgrade button.
-
Upgrade Later
– This choice will skip the upgrade for that printer, but keep the upgrade file. The next time you start PCMate
Platinum, the upgrade will be offered again. This allows you to skip the upgrade until later.
-
Remove Upgrade
– If you select this option, the printer will not be upgraded, and the upgrade file will be deleted.
6. To start the upgrade, click on the Start Upgrade button. No further action is required until the upgrade process finishes.
The upgrade process can take quite a while. If the process is interrupted, the printer will attempt to revert to the last revision. If it fails, it will revert to a safe version. If this occurs, it will be necessary to redo the upgrade.

8.4.4 Upgrading through the Webserver
This instruction uses the Filezilla FTP Client Application as an example. Filezilla is an open source FTP client that is available freely from http://filezilla-project.org/ . Other FTP clients operate in a similar manner.
This upgrade procedure is only available in printer firmware version 3.28.11.01 and above. If the printer is not at this version or above it must be upgraded through PCMate or a USB drive. Future upgrades can then be done through the Web Server.
Make sure your file has the “.upg” extension or the file type is “UPG file”. If it has the
“.zip”, you must extract/unzip the file before using.
Accessing the printer though Filezilla or another ftp client allows access to the entire printer file structure. Moving, deleting or otherwise changing any files or folders can result in erroneous operation or disabling of the printer.
Use caution.
Connecting to the Printer through Filezilla

9.5 Printer Errors
Printer errors are indicated by either the Supply or Error light being on.
When the Supply light is on, the printer supplies (stock or ink) require attention.
Generally, this means the stock or one of the ink rolls is empty, or the stacker is full.
If the Error light is on, some condition occurred that would not allow the printer to continue printing.
Whenever either the Supply or Error light is on, pressing the Voice button will play a message describing the problem. If you are using PCMate Platinum, an error message will be displayed in the Printer Status box of the Virtual Front
Panel.
The table below shows all of the printer error messages, along with a description of the problem and some possible solutions. Error messages shaded in gray apply to printer firmware version 3.23.06.12 and earlier. These were changed to clarify that the errors are software errors and do not indicate that the MCB is defective. They are replaced by the SOFTWARE XXX PRESS START message
(see the description for details).

PRINTHEAD
ST1 (2) LOW TEMP READ
ERR the platform before printing. The platform position sensor did not respond as expected. This is usually caused by labels blocking the sensor. Remove all labels from the platform and try again. If the error still occurs, the stacker requires service.
The SNAP printers are capable of printing on either the top or bottom printheads, both, or neither (cut only). The unused print station roller(s) must be open.. This eliminates the need to install ink on the unused station. If this error occurs when the bottom station roller is open, the head open sensor is not working.
This error indicates that the upper or lower printhead temperature is out of normal range. This is generally caused by a disconnected printhead. Check the printhead connections. If the error still occurs, change the printhead. If the error still occurs, replace the printhead cable. If the error still occurs, replace the MCB.

These are internal software errors. If one of them occurs, clear the error and continue. If the error continues to occur, report the error and the circumstances that cause it to Avery Dennison
Service. These errors are caused by errors in the software and are not caused by hardware failures.
These are internal errors similar to the ones above.
However, these errors will require power cycling the printer. If the error continues to occur, report the error and the circumstances that cause it to Avery
Dennison Service.
This error indicates that the label is shorter than the minimum length for the selected print speed. Refer to the Printer Specifications for minimum label lengths. (Minimum label lengths are different for the
Sonic Knife. Refer to the Sonic Knife manual.) To run and cut the label, you must either make the label longer or reduce the print speed.
This error indicates the stock supply roll is empty. If the stock supply roll is not empty, make sure the supply core is firmly held by the arbor clamp.
If this error continues to occur, remove the stock roll and press the Start button (the Ready light must be on). The stock arbor should spin counter-clockwise briefly. If it doesn’t, the motor or MCB is defective. If it spins and you continue to get the error after reinstalling the stock roll, the MCB is defective.

This error indicates that either the upper or lower platen roller is open. Close the roller. If the error continues to occur when the roller is closed, check the roller open sensor.
The format specifies a sense mark, but no sense mark was found. Possible causes are misalignment of the sensor to the sense mark or incompatibility of the sense mark and the sensor type. Another possible cause is a mismatch between the label length that is set in the format with the actual distance between sense marks on the stock.
NOTE: In later versions of code, this message is replaced by the following messages that specify the type of sensor. This gives more information in case the wrong sensor type is selected.
The format specifies a hole sense mark, but no sense mark was found. Possible causes are misalignment of the sensor to the sense mark or incompatibility of the sense mark and the sensor type. Another possible cause is a mismatch between the label length that is set in the format with the actual distance between sense marks on the stock.

Also, the contrast sensor option may not be installed.
If the format does not specify a contrast sense mark, the sensor type override may be set.
The printer continuously monitors the temperature of the printhead to ensure it doesn’t overheat and damage the printhead. When the printhead temperature reaches a pre-set limit, the printer will stop with this error. Wait for the error light to go out and continue printing. However, it is likely that the error will happen again. Possible solutions are to reduce the print speed or to reduce the amount of copy on the label.
If this error happens when the printer is first turned on or does not clear itself within a few minutes, the printhead or MCB may be defective.
When first running a format specifying a particular sensor, or after a missed sense mark error, the printer automatically calibrates the sensor. This error indicates that the printer could not calibrate the sensor. Possible causes are misalignment of the sensor to the sense mark or incompatibility of the sense mark and the sensor type. NOTE: In later versions of firmware, this message is replaced with the ones below, which indicate the selected sensor type. This gives more information in case the wrong sensor type is selected.

This indicates that the bar code verifier found a bad bar code. The most likely cause is a print quality problem such as an ink wrinkle or a dot out on the printhead. If this error happens on every label, check the printhead for dots out. If this error happens often, but not every label, check the bar code minimum height requirement or lower the ANSI grade.
This error indicates that the host computer sent more data than the printer can handle. This error is generally caused by a mismatch in the serial protocol setting (XON/XOFF or RTS/CTS) between the printer and the host, or a cable that does not have the
RTS/CTS lines.
NOTE: Later versions of firmware use the SERIAL
COMM OVERFLOW message to indicate that the problem is in the serial communications.
The number of fields on the label exceeds the maximum number allowed.
The printer checks to make sure the software versions within the printer are compatible. This error indicates that the versions are not compatible.

These errors are all related to identification devices in the printer or peripherals that are used to read the printer configuration. If one of these errors continues to occur after a power cycle, disconnect all peripherals (stacker, sonic knife, etc.). If the problem still occurs, replace the Frame ID memory. If it still occurs, replace the MCB.
If disconnecting the peripherals fixes the problem, reconnect one at a time to determine which one is causing the problem, then replace the printer interface harness.
This error is related to the Security Batch Count feature. It indicates that the Batch Count queue is full, which should never happen. The only way to recover from this is to reset the MCB by removing the battery on the MCB with the power off, then replacing it. This will also reset all the printer settings (print and cut adjust, baud rate, cutter enable, etc.) to their default values.

11.1 Fuse Configuration
The main fuse(s) on the SNAP 700 are located inside the AC power entry receptacle.
The entry has a fuse drawer that holds the fuse(s) and selects the appropriate line voltage. If the number in the window DOES NOT match the AC line voltage intended to be supplied to the printer, DO NOT plug the power cord in. Reconfigure as follows:
1) Remove the power cord.
2) Using a flat blade screwdriver, open the AC entry by lifting the tab just above the voltage indicator window.
WARNING: Attempting to open the AC entry with the AC power cord inserted into it will cause damage to the AC entry.
3) Remove the red fuse drawer.
4) Remove all fuses and the fuse jumper if it is present.
5) Insert into the fuse drawer the correct number and style of fuses and fuse jumper for your application.
Configuration Number One: Line voltage between the range of
90 - 132VAC @ 50 - 60Hz 1 Ph
1) Install one 921167 - 10.0A 250V Fast Acting 1/4 x 1 1/4"
2) Install one Fuse Jumper
See Figure FUSE1
Configuration Number Two: Line voltage between the range of
180 - 265VAC @ 50 - 60Hz 1 Ph
1) Install two 990757 - 6.3A 250V 5 x 20MM
NOTE: The fuse jumper must be removed to install both 5 x 20mm fuses.
The fuses must be between points A and B as shown not B and C.

16. Reattach the Rear Cover. Reconnect Stacker connection.
17. When ready to use a sense mark format, program the Sensor per instructions provided with the Sensor.
11.5 Programming the Contrast Sensors
There are two optional contrast sensors available for the SNAP 700 printer. 620006-1 is the standard contrast sensor. It works well in most situations where there is significant contrast between the material background and the sense mark. In situations where there is less contrast between the material and the sense mark, or the material and sense mark are of similar colors, the 620007-1 Color Contrast Sensor may be required.
Both sensors have to be “taught” the difference between the material background and the sense mark. The procedures are similar, and are described below.
Classification: Avery Dennison - Public
106
User’s Manual—SNAP™ 700 Printer
11.5.1 Programming the Contrast Sensor
The figure below shows the control panel for the Contrast Sensor. The sensor can detect a light sense mark on dark material (L) or a dark sense mark on light material
(D). In each mode, the control switch can be set to RUN or TEACH.
To teach the sensor, thread the printer with the stock to be used. Position the material so that a sense mark is just to the left of the sensor position. Adjust the sensor position across the web so that the sensor lines up with the sense mark.
Set the control switch on the sensor to the TEACH position. If the material has a light sense mark on dark material, set the switch to TEACH L. If the material has a dark sense mark on light material, set the switch to TEACH D.
Press and hold the TEACH button while using the stock advance knob to move the sense mark under and past the sensor.
Make sure that the stock is tight against the web guide. The best way to do this is to press the TEACH button with the left index finger, while applying back tension to the supply roll with the left thumb. This ensures that the stock is in the same position that it will be when the printer is running.
Release the TEACH button. If the Q light flashes rapidly, the sensor did not program correctly. If the process fails repeatedly, the sensor may not be lined up correctly with the sense mark, or there may not be enough contrast between the background and the sense mark.
Move the material so that the sense mark moves back and forth under the sensor.
The Q light on the sensor should flash when the sense mark passes under the sensor.
Move the configuration switch to either the RUN L or RUN D position, depending on

the sense mark.
11.5.2 Programming the Color Contrast Sensor
The figure below shows the control panel for the Color Contrast Sensor. The configuration switch has three positions:
Q1
– Teaching mode
Run
– Run mode
Run Delay
– Do not use
To teach the sensor, thread the printer with the stock to be used. Position the material so that a sense mark is just to the left of the sensor position. Adjust the sensor position across the web so that the sensor lines up with the sense mark.
Set the control switch on the sensor to the Q1 position. Press and hold the TEACH button while using the stock advance knob to move the sense mark under and past the sensor.
Make sure that the stock is tight against the web guide. The best way to do this is to press the TEACH button with the left index finger, while applying back tension to the supply roll with the left thumb. This ensures that the stock is in the same position that it will be when the printer is running.
Release the TEACH button. If the Q/ok light flashes rapidly, the sensor did not program correctly. If the process fails repeatedly, the sensor may not be lined up correctly with the sense mark, or there may not be enough contrast between the background and the sense mark.
Move the material so that the sense mark moves back and forth under the sensor.
The Q/ok light on the sensor should flash when the sense mark passes under the sensor.
Move the configuration switch to RUN position.

Avery Dennison Retail Information Systems, In-Plant Printing Solutions provides the following warranty policy.
Scope
Warranties against defects from workmanship for equipment and parts manufactured and sold from Miamisburg, OH. Includes time and material except as otherwise noted below.
Time
New equipment and parts: 6 months
Refurbished equipment and parts: 90 days
Warranty period starts when equipment ships from selling location.
General Conditions
Avery Dennison extends warranty coverage under the following conditions.
Equipment and parts will perform within published specifications. Promised or implied statements by any Avery Dennison employee or representative will not be deemed to vary the terms of the warranty.
Equipment and parts must be installed and operated according to recommended procedures and operating conditions.
Consumable elements are not covered. Consumable elements are those that show normal wear from typical equipment usage including, without limitation, printheads, knives, rollers in contact with the web, and sonic units. Avery Dennison reserves the right to determine which elements are defined as “consumable.”
No customer maintenance may be performed except as directed by qualified Avery

Equipment Purchased In US and Shipped In US
Avery Dennison US covers warranty for equipment and parts installed and operated in the Americas (United States, Canada, Mexico, Central America, Caribbean Region, and
South America excluding Brazil).
Outside the US, the local Avery Dennison office is responsible for equipment and parts warranty. Customers must ensure coverage during machine purchase.
Equipment purchased and exported to regions outside local Avery Dennison office coverage are not covered by warranty. The purchasing agent must acquire a service contract from the Avery Dennison office where the equipment or parts are operated to ensure machine coverage. For example, if an agent purchases a printer in the US, exports to Brazil, and then needs warranty coverage, Avery Dennison Brazil has no obligation to provide warranty coverage. The agent must purchase services from Avery
Dennison Brazil.
THE WARRANTIES PROVIDED HEREIN ARE EXCLUSIVE AND ARE IN LIEU OF ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE OR OTHER WARRANTY OF QUALITY OR PERFORMANCE, WHETHER
EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. EXCEPT THE WARRANTY OF TITLE, IN NO EVENT SHALL
AVERY DENNISON BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF AVERY DENNISON HAS BEEN ADVISED OF
THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

14.0 Addendum I
– Handling Procedures
OPERATIONS
PRINTER WEIGHT: The printer weighs are 75 pounds (34 Kg) or less and requires a table of sufficient quality and strength to handle this load. The AVERY DENNISON SNAP® printer line requires an area with the approximate dimensions of 72" wide x 30" deep x 32" high (1.8 m x 76 cm x 81 cm). The host
PC (if used) and any printer options will increase the required area. AVERY DENNISON recommends using an industrial type worktable approved for use for such loads.
LOCATION CONSIDERATIONS: The AVERY DENNISON SNAP printer line is designed for easy operator accessibility to the printer controls and components. Select your AVERY DENNISON SNAP printer’s location to meet the following criteria:
1.
Choose an area that maintains optimum flow of your product and allows for the operator’s comfort. Consider the physical demands being placed on the operator with respect to height of the table on which the printer will be placed, the amount of space around the printer, and the operator’s accessibility to the printer.
2. While AVERY DENNISON has designed the printer to be reasonably quiet, select an area where repetitious noise from printing and cutting processes is acceptable and where heat generated by the printer can be quickly dissipated.
CAUTION: It is each customer’s or end user’s responsibility to make sure that the workstation created for the AVERYDENNISON SNAP printer line meets the recommended requirements to ensure optimal operation of the printer.
MAINTENANCE
PRINT HEAD CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE: Follow the recommended procedure in accordance with the printer Use r’s Manual.
