2.1.2 Powering The Printer On
When all cables have been connected and the labels and ribbon have been loaded as described
below, the printer is ready to be powered on.
The power switch is located on the back side near the power cable socket.
When powering the printer on, the display shows the message starting… and all three LED’s light
up. After a few seconds, the Check LED’s turn off, while the Ready remains lit together with the
Power LED; the display shows the ON LINE message.
2.2 Loading Media And Ribbon
The term “media” used in this manual refers to all the different kinds of paper, label, or tag stock
material that can be printed on by the printer. This section explains how to load roll media, fanfold
media, and transfer ribbon. Your thermal printer can print on continuous paper, adhesive backed
labels or non-adhesive tags packaged in roll or fanfold form.
WARNING!
DO NOT TOUCH the print head or the electronic components under the Print Head Assembly. The discharge of
electrostatic energy that accumulates on the surface of the human body or other surfaces can damage or destroy the
print head or electronic components used in this device.
IMPORTANT!
Adhesive backed labels that DO NOT lay flat on the backing liner may jam the printer. This can cause the label to peel
off the liner. The exposed edges may stick to the label guides and rollers inside the printer.
If you run out of labels while printing, do not turn the power switch to the OFF position while reloading labels. Lost
data may result.
