1 General Description
The LOADRITE LP950 printer is an accessory to the Loadrite weighing
system and is used to provide a permanent record of the weighing
operations as they are performed.
A detailed description of the 'print-outs' available is given in the Loadrite
Operating Manual.
The LP950 printer is supplied complete with:
• a fully adjustable mounting bracket
• a cable which may be plugged between the LP950 and the PRINTER/EDP socket at
the rear of the Loadrite Weigh Indicator.
• a spare ink-ribbon cartridge
Printing is performed by the dot-matrix impact method, utilising a
replaceable ink-ribbon cartridge, on to either:
• standard 57mm calculator plain paper or
• 2 layer NCR paper, (if a duplicate copy is required).

2 Installation
Printer
The LP950 printer should be installed at the appropriate mounting angle,
orientation and location to provide optimal conditions of use by the operator.
The following important rules should be observed:
1. The printer should not be located in direct sunlight or near any engine
compartments which can become excessively hot. (If necessary a
screen should be provided to shade the unit from direct heat and
sunlight).
2. To reduce the risk of entry of dust or moisture into the printer case -
• The unit should be mounted with the mouth of the paper exit slot in
a downwards direction.
• Care should be taken that externally accumulated dust, water and
oil etc. does not enter when the lid is opened to replace the paper
roll.
3. The printer should be located in such a way that it does not hinder the
normal operation of the machine controls or the visibility of the operator.
4. The printer should be located in a position where:
• The hinged lid can be opened without restriction, for replacement of
the paper roll or ribbon cartridge. [The lid is secured with a sprung
(not hinged) plastic clip. Bending this clip back too far may result in
its breakage.]
• The operator has easy access to the printer to operate the printer
controls.

Electrical Connection
All power supply and signal connections to the printer are contained within
the cable and connector assembly. No other connections are required.
Connection is made by plugging the cable between the socket located at
the rear of the LP950 and the PRINTER/EDP socket located at the rear of
the Loadrite Weigh Indicator. The power supply to the printer is switched
ON and OFF by the main power ON/OFF switch on the side of the Loadrite
indicator.
Ensure that the printer and cable are securely fastened and the cable
routed to avoid accidental physical damage. Special care is needed when
routing cable to avoid physical damage.
Use with Data Capture System
The Loadrite weighing system may be operated with both an LP950 Printer
and a Data Capture System.
Please consult your local LOADRITE dealer for the supply of the Data
Capture System.
