Load Media
The beginning steps for loading media apply to all printers, including those that have the
peel-off, liner take-up, cutter, or rewind option. When you have completed these beginning
steps, continue with the media loading instructions for the print mode and printer options that
apply to you. For more information about print modes and printer options, see
Print Modes
and Printer Options on page 30 .
Beginning Steps for all Print Modes and Printer Options
To begin loading media for all print modes and printer options, complete these
steps:
1. Press the printhead release latch to open the printhead assembly. Lift the printhead until it
latches open.
2. Slide out the media guide.
Caution • While performing any tasks near an open printhead, remove all rings, watches,
hanging necklaces, identification badges, or other metallic objects that could touch the
printhead. You are not required to turn off the printer power when working near an open
printhead, but Zebra recommends it as a precaution. If you turn off the power, you will lose
all temporary settings, such as label formats, and you must reload them before you resume
printing.
