Place the label roll onto the reel hanger bar. The roll should be against a metal lock clip
so that it is held straight. Place second metal lock clip onto reel hanger bar to keep the
labels snug.
Thread the web under the guide rod, between the hold down brush and the strip plate
and back under the strip plate. Lay the web across the slot in the take-up hub. Lock the
web in position with the metal lock rod. (The take-up hub turns counter-clockwise.)
Hold Down Brush:
Using the upper thumbscrew on the side of the machine, adjust the hold down brush for
tensioning. For best results, labels should be pressed firmly against the strip plate.
However, if the labels are held too tightly, they will cause excessive drag on the motor.
Photosensor:
The photosensor can be adjusted in any direction by using the lower thumbscrew on the
side of the machine and the thumbscrew underneath the photosensor bracket. Loosening
the thumbscrew on the side of the machine allows the photosensor to move in and out.
This is used to set the overhang distance of the label over the strip plate. The
thumbscrew underneath the photosensor bracket is used to swivel the sensor along the
front of the strip plate. When the label is being fed the correct distance, lock the bracket
in place. If there are 2 or more labels across, align the photosensor with the last label to
be removed. When these screws are locked in place, the machine is set.

Daisy-chain option:
DSP-2 dispensers can be “daisy-chained” together to operate in series. When a label is
removed from one of the machines, the next label will not feed until the labels are
removed from all the machines. Example: If 3 machines are “daisy-chained” together,
when a label is taken off the first machine, it will not feed; when a label is taken off the
second machine, it will not feed. When the label is taken from the third machine, all
machines will feed their respective labels. (DSP-2-CABLE needed to “daisy-chain”
machines.)
