Section 1: Unpacking and Setup
Thank you for purchasing the DX850 Label Dispenser (hereafter referred to as "Label
Dispenser").
The Label Dispenser includes a Power Cord, 12 volt Power Adapter and the parts shown in
Figure 1-1. The Roll Bar, Roll Guides and Roll Drag Arm are located in the supply box along
with the Power Cord. You will need to assemble them as shown in Figure 1-1 and 1-2. Also see
Section 2 for more detailed instructions on assembling these parts. Attach the Power Cord
and switch on the power as shown in Figure 1-2. Finally, remove the foam insert between the
Liner Idler Roller and Liner Drive Roller.
Figure 1-1.

Section 2: Loading the Label Stock
1. Remove the Roll Bar and Roll Guides from the Label Dispenser. The Roll Guides and Roll
Drag Arm are removable and adjustable. They are held in place magnetically. (Figure 2-1.)
Figure 2-1.
2. Remove one Roll Guide and the Roll Drag Arm from the Roll Bar.
3. Place the label stock roll on the Roll Bar with one side against the upright of the remaining
roll guide. Place it on the Roll Bar with the loose end of the stock feeding off the top of the
roll. (Figure 2-2.)
Figure 2-2.
Tip! For smaller diameter label roll
cores you may need to reverse the
Roll Guides so that the bottom of the
guides are facing out to allow the
uprights to be placed next to the roll.

4. Place the Roll Drag Arm under the Roll Bar. The Roll Drag Arm may be placed on either
side of the Roll Bar, but the rounded tip of the Roll Drag Arm should be located in the
center of the inside of the core. The arm is spring loaded so that there is downward
pressure on the inside of the roll. This helps prevent application alignment problems
near the end of a roll. (Figure 2-3.)
Figure 2-3.
5. Place the removed Roll Guide back on the Roll Bar and slide it close to, but not touching the
label stock roll. (Figure 2-4.)
Figure 2-4.
Tip! Roll Guide Uprights
must not pinch the label
stock roll. (The label
stock roll must have free-
play between guides.)

6. Now position the stock to correspond with the general area where the labels will be
dispensed.
7. Pull the loose end of the label stock forward under the Top Roller. Pull approximately
6 inches of label stock out beyond the Peel Edge. (Figure 2-5.)
Figure 2-5.
Tip! See Section 5 for
a Label Path diagram.
8. Take the loose label stock and feed it between the Liner Idler Roller and the Liner Drive
Roller. (Figure 2-6.) In order to feed the label stock between the rollers, the Liner Idler
Roller should be in the unclamped position. (See Figure 2-10 for a detailed diagram of the
Liner Idler Roller positions.)
Figure 2-6.
Note: This procedure assumes that the first 6 inches of labels will not be dispensed using the Label
Dispenser. Of course, you may still peel these labels by hand.

9. Pull the stock through until the Peel Edge is positioned in between two of the labels.
(Figure 2-7.)
Figure 2-7.
Note: The liner may be fed out the front or back of the Label Dispenser.
10. Push the Liner Idler Roller into the clamped position by pressing your thumbs on the Liner
Idler Roller Tabs on both sides. (Figure 2-8.)

Section 3: Dispensing the Label
To dispense a label, first load label stock as described in Section 2, connect power and switch on
the Label Dispenser. Follow these steps to dispense labels.
1. Before you start dispensing you should adjust the Label Sensor on the Label Sensor Bracket
so that the distance between the Label Sensor and the Peel Edge is equal to roughly 1/2”
less than the label height. (Figure 3-1.)
Figure 3-1.
1/2" less than Label Height
For example, for a 4" wide x 2" high (101.6mm x 50.8mm) label you would set this distance
to approximately 1-1/2” (38.1 mm). The exact distance is not critical. It is only important
that you set the distance so that the label does not come off the liner when presented. If the
label height dictates the sensor be moved beyond the available travel, set the sensor to the
minimum or maximum position as applicable.
2. To Start dispensing press the Start/Stop button on the Control Panel. (Figure 3-2.)

3. A label will peel off the liner until it trips the Label Sensor. (Figure 3-3.)
Figure 3-3.
4. Pull the label off the liner with a quick upward motion. (Figure 3-4.)
Figure 3-4.
Note: For labels higher than 3" (76.2 mm) you will have to slowly pull up on the label with continuous
force until the end of the label clears the Guide Roller. For these type of labels set the label sensor
bar to the maximum distance from the Peel Edge.
5. When you are ready to stop dispensing labels or if you want to stop for another reason such
as adjusting the label sensor position, simply press the Start/Stop Button.
6. To remove the label stock, disengage the Liner Idler Roller by pulling back on the tabs.

Section 6: Troubleshooting and Maintenance
Troubleshooting
Motor stalling on labels 6" (152 mm) or wider.
For label stock 6” (152 mm) and wider, it may be necessary to reduce the speed of the Label
Dispenser. The Label Dispenser includes a Half-Speed Mode that generates more power
from the motor for wider label stock. To activate this mode, hold down the - Button while
switching on the unit. The Label Dispenser will revert back to the Default Mode when
switched on without holding down the - Button.
Maintenance
Unclamp Liner Idler Roller.
When not in use, leave the Liner Idler Roller in the unclamped position. This will minimize
the possibility that permanent indentations will be made in the Liner Drive Roller.
Lubricate bearings.
Primera recommends oiling the four bearings associated with the Liner Drive Roller and
Liner Idler Roller. Oil these four bearings for every 50,000 labels dispensed. They should
only be oiled after the first 50,000 labels as they are lubricated with a special grease at the
factory. One drop of any machine oil or motor oil for each bearing should be adequate. This
maintenance is optional but will increase the life of the Label Dispenser for heavy users who
use the Label Dispenser for several hours each day.
