2-2. Steps to set up the Dual-Color printing system
Step 1 Connect both printers to PC with USB / Ethernet and connect them with RS-232 in
between
The Godex dual color printing system supports USB and Ethernet connection for now. But both
printers should be connected with the same type of connection port, e.g. both on USB port or
both on Ethernet port. The RS-232 cable between two printers is used for error handling. This is
essential to synchronize the printers for accurate dual color printing.
Step 2 Place two printers in a line and load the label and ribbon respectively
Please refer to the graphic in right, two printers must
be placed in a line and make sure they are aligned
correctly so that the label feeding path can be kept
straight. Load a color of ribbon on the first printer and
load another color of ribbon on the second printer.
Load a label roll on the first printer and keep pulling
the label, then feed the label to the second printer
from the slot for Fan-Fold media. Connect the Godex
supplied serial cable to each printer’s serial port.
