A INTRODUCTION
The IER 506 Counter Top Printer is primarily designed to print bag tags
and ATB1 type flight coupons in an airport check-in environment.
The print technology used by this printer is the direct thermal method
requiring the use of heat-sensitive media.
The IER 506 Printer accepts fanfold media (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 4) and
roll media (see Fig. 2 and Fig. 3) for bag tag and ATB1 flight coupon
printing.
The continuous blank media is inserted through the rear feed slot.
An optional 13.56 MHz or 900 MHz RFID (Radio Frequency
Identification) Reader can be added to the printer.
In addition, the printer can be fitted with one of the following three
optional media separation modules:
•Tear-Off module provided with a serrated tear strip
•Motorized Burster module coming with a burster blade
•Motorized Cutter module provided with a cutter blade
With its dimensions and design, the IER 506 Printer harmoniously blends
in with the IER 567 ATB printer series.
The IER 506 Printer models featuring a motorized document separator,
can be provided with a motorized stacker (see Fig. 4).
IMPORTANT:
A
For the basic IER 506 Printer model, which does not include
a coupon separator, the media must be provided with
p
erforations between the individual documents.
PLEASE NOTE: The motorized stacker cannot be used for
bag tags. It accommodates exclusively fanfold ATB
coupons.
