You may obtain a suitable cable by contacting the InfoSight
factory at +1 (740) 642-3600.
Once you have connected the printer and computer, apply power to the
cassette printer by turning the key switch to the "on" position.
After the printer has been turned on, you may start the LabeLase® Pro-
ducer CL software. When the software starts, it will attempt to establish
communications with the cassette printer. When communications has been
established, the status bar at the bottom of the window will show the printer
is "IDLE".
If the printer has not been reset, the status of the printer will be shown as
"ESTOP". If the printer’s power is not on, you will see a "TIMEOUT" error indi-
cating that the software cannot establish communications with the printer.
Once communications is established, and the status bar accurately reflects
the printer’s status and no error message are displayed, you may begin
printing cassettes.
2.2.2 Connecting to your information system
Before you can send data from your information system to the cassette
printer, you must connect the printer to your system. This is done via the PC
and LabeLase® Producer CL software.
