LABEL DISPENSE OPTION CL608e and CL612e
The CL608e and CL612e Label Dispense Option is an external mechanism that
provides the ability to print labels in the “demand” mode. It is attached to rear of the
printer with two screws and is connected to the internal drive mechanism of the
printer. When the label dispenser is installed and configured for operation, the printer
dispenses one label at a time, peeling the backing from the label, which allows for
immediate application to the product by the operator.

1. Install the option using the instructions provided with the unit. The installation
time is approximately 30 minutes.
