Loading the Label
1. Insert a 1” label spindle into a paper roll ( * If your paper core is 1 inch, remove the 1.5” core adapter from the
fixed tab).
2. Open the printer’s top cover by releasing the
green top cover open levers located on each side
of the printer and lifting the top cover. A top cover
support at the rear of the printer will hold the
printer top cover open.
3. Place a roll of paper onto the center of the paper roll mount.
4. Feed the paper, printing side face up, through the teflon bar, paper guide and pass over the platen.
5. Adjust the green center-biased paper guides in or out so they are slightly touch the edges of the label backing.
6. Lift up the top cover to the ultimate angle then close the top cover gently and it will be kept at a stop position
between 1 and 2 for a while. Use both hands to gently push down the top cover to close it and make sure the
cover is latched on both sides.
7. Use the “Diagnostic tool” to set the media sensor type and calibrate the selected sensor. (See “Diagnostic tool” in
the box on the right side of this page)
Note:
1. Please calibrate the gap/black mark sensor when changing media.
2. Failure to securely close and lock the cover will result in poor print quality.
