Printing Labels

The printer is ready to print when the control panel displays Printer Online.

1. Select the Print command from your application.

2. Select the printer and click the Setup, Properties or similar button.

The print settings displayed are the defaults that were set in the printer driver.

3. Change the print settings if needed.

NOTE: Ensure the media settings (e.g. label size) match the media loaded in the

printer.

4. Print the document.

Any changes to the settings only apply to the current print job. Once you exit the
application, the changes are lost. Make the changes in the printer driver if you wish to
keep the settings as the default for all print jobs.

Change Default Settings in Printer Driver

1. From the Windows Start menu, select Devices and Printers*.

2. Right-click the printer, and select Printing preferences.

3. Make the changes and click OK to save.

It is recommended that any adjustments needed for individual print jobs should
be performed using the drivers.
