Printer Operation
Roll Media Loading
Rewind Mode
Refer to Figure 17 . The following instructions pertain to printers with the Rewind option only.
To load media in Rewind mode, complete these steps:
1. Remove the rewind plate from its storage location in front of the print mechanism inside
the media compartment.
2. Invert the rewind plate so that the lip on the attached hook plate points down.
3. Insert the hook plate lip a short distance (0.5 in. or 13 mm) into the lower opening in the
side plate.
4. Align the upper end of the rewind plate with the corresponding opening in the side plate.
Slide in the rewind plate so that it stops against the printer’s main frame.
5. Open the printhead.
6. Slide the media guide and media supply guide as far from the printer frame as possible.
7. Load media as shown.
8. When loading media, allow approximately 36 in. (915 mm) of media to extend past the
printhead. Remove all labels from this portion to create a leader.
9. Remove the hook from the rewind spindle. If you are using a core, slide it onto the rewind
spindle until it is flush against the guide plate.
10. Wind the label liner around either the 3 in. (76.2 mm) core or the rewind spindle and
reinstall the hook.
11. Slide in the media guide and media supply guide so they just touch, but do not restrict, the
edge of the roll.
12. Close the printhead.
Note • Before closing the printhead, make sure:
• The media is positioned against the inside guides.
• The media is taut and parallel with itself and the pathway when wound onto the rewind
spindle or core.
