How to flip the encoding module

The Quantum is equipped with a removable and reversible encoding module, independent from the printing module.
The positioning of the encoding module is indicated by the sticker located on the module.
Position A = standard position = chip contact station in top position and magnetic track encoder in bottom position.
Position B = magnetic track encoder in top position and chip contact station in bottom position.
To rotate the printing module over:

  • Turn your equipment OFF by pushing the ON/OFF button situated on the rear panel of the printer.
  • Open the cover of the encoding module.
  • With one hand, push the button to release the encoding module, and with the other hand, lift the module up vertically.
  • Rotate the encoding module sideways 180°
  • Replace it in the machine.
  • The CLICK will confirm that the encoding module is in the proper position.
  • Close the cover.
  • Turn the printer back ON by pushing the ON/OFF button.
