Before you begin

Ensure that you have the G5404B Microplate Labeler

Media Kit from Agilent Technologies. The kit contains a

one- to- one quantity of thermal transfer ribbon and

labels so that you can replace them at the same time.

The kit also contains a pen for cleaning the printhead.

If you are replacing used ribbon and labels, see the

G5404B Microplate Labeler User Guide for the cleaning

procedure before you continue.

Open the printer cover to gain access for loading the

labels and ribbon.

Loading the ribbon

To load new ribbon:

1Install the new ribbon roll on the supply hub (1) as

follows:

aWhile firmly holding the supply hub, turn the

green knob clockwise to contract the hub.

Slide the new ribbon roll onto the hub until it is

flush against the printer. Ensure the ribbon feeds

clockwise with the coating facing downward when

being unwound.

bWhile firmly holding the hub, turn the green knob

counterclockwise to expand the hub and

secure the ribbon roll.

2Turn the printhead lever (2) counterclockwise to lift

the printhead, and then guide the ribbon under and

around the printhead.

3Feed the ribbon onto an empty core on the take- up

hub (3) as follows:

aWhile firmly holding the take- up hub, turn the

green knob clockwise to contract the hub.

Slide an empty ribbon core onto the hub until it is

flush against the printer.

bWhile firmly holding the hub, turn the green knob

counterclockwise to expand the hub and

secure the empty ribbon core.

cGuide the ribbon under and then over the take- up

hub so that it winds counterclockwise.

Use adhesive tape to secure the end of the ribbon

to the ribbon core. Make sure the edge of the

ribbon is flush with the core against the printer.

4Turn the ribbon take- up hub (3) counterclockwise to

smooth out the ribbon slack.

If you are also loading labels, continue to the next

procedure. If you are finished loading all media, turn

the printhead lever (2) clockwise to lower the printhead.

Loading the printer labels

You load the labels in three basic steps:

WARNING The printhead can be hot after use. Allow

the printhead to cool before loading the ribbon.

CAUTION Do not touch the protective glass layer of the

printhead with your fingers. A dirty printhead will result in a poor

print image.

Step For this task…

1Install the label roll on the roll retainer.

2Feed the label strip under the printhead.

3Secure the label strip to the rewinder.

Step 1. Installing the label roll on the roll retainer

To install the label roll on the roll retainer:

1Turn the green locking ring (1) counterclockwise to

the unlocked ( ) position.

2Remove the margin stop (2).

3On the roll retainer (3), load the new label roll so

that it feeds counterclockwise with the label side up.

4Reposition the margin stop (2) on the roll retainer

(3).

5While firmly pushing the margin stop against the

label roll (4), turn the green locking ring (1) clockwise

to the locked ( ) position.

IMPORTANT To ensure that the roll feeds properly

and the label presentation is repeatable, the margin

stop must be firmly in place against the label roll.

Step 2. Feeding the label strip under the printhead

To feed the label strip under the printhead:

1Ensure that the printhead lever (5) is in the up

position (turned counterclockwise), lifting the

printhead.

2Slide the red guide ring (8) to the end of the axis bar.

3Guide the label strip below the axis bar and through

the label sensor (7) so that the label strip exits the

print unit between the printhead and the print roller

(6).

4Push the guide ring (8) on the axis bar against the

outer edge of the label strip.

Step 3. Securing the label strip to the rewinder

To secure the label strip to the rewinder:

1Push down on the pinch- roller lever (9) to lift the

pinch roller off the rewind assist roller.

2Guide the label strip down and under the rewind

assist roller (10) toward the rewinder (11).

3While holding the rewinder (11) firmly, turn the green

knob clockwise until it stops.

4Insert the label strip under the three brackets on the

rewinder (11), and turn the green knob

counterclockwise until it stops. The rewinder

is fully expanded, gripping the label strip firmly.

The inside edge of the label strip should be flush

against the printer.

5Turn the rewinder (11) counterclockwise to tighten

the label strip.

6Push up on the pinch- roller lever (9) to position the

pinch roller into position on the rewind assist roller.

7Turn the printhead lever (12) clockwise to lock the

printhead into position on the new label strip and

ribbon.

After you finish loading new ribbon and labels

Use Microplate Labeler Diagnostics to run a print- and-

apply test. Verify that the labels print correctly and the

applicator head can pick up the labels from the printer.

Optionally, you can reset the label counter. For details,

see the G5404B Microplate Labeler User Guide.
