4. Loading Labels
1Press the form-feed button to eject the labels that protected the printer during
shipment.
2Open the top cover and remove the label spool from one side of the printer.
3Hold the spool spindle in your left hand and
place the label roll on the spindle so that the
labels feed from underneath.
4Place the spool guide on the right side of the
spool and adjust it to fit snugly against the roll.
See Figure 7.
5Insert the label spool into the slots in the
printer cover.
6Cut the first label in half so that you have a
clean edge and insert the label into the label
feed slot. See Figure 8.
The printer feeds the labels, stopping at the
beginning of the first label. If the printer stops
without feeding the label, make sure the label
is fully inserted and then press the form-feed
button.
Repeat these steps to load the second roll of
labels.
7Close the top cover.
You are now ready to print your first label.
