Important!
•
Be sure to read this section before attempting to use the Label Printer.
Power Supply
The Label Printer can be powered by six AA-size alkaline batteries.
Replacing Batteries
A handy low battery power indicator lets you know when battery power is get-
ting too low for proper operation. The message “BATT” appears on the display
if battery power is low when you perform any of the following operations.
•
Turn power on
•
Execute a print operation
Whenever the “BATT” message appears, press SET to clear it from the display.
You should still be able to perform some Label Printer operations, but some
power intensive operations (like printing) may become impossible if battery power
is too low. In any case, you should replace batteries as soon as possible after
the “BATT” message appears.

All data stored in memory is deleted whenever batteries go dead and when
you replace batteries. Be sure to keep written backup copies of all important
data (text and documents).

Be sure to use alkaline batteries.
•
Make sure the positive (+) and negative (–)

you load them.
4. Replace the back cover.
•
Make sure the back cover is positioned as
shown in the illustration when replacing it.
Trying to force the cover into place while it is
in the wrong position can cause damage to
the cover or label printer.

in place and that the back cover is closed se-
curely before using the label printer. A loose
tape cartridge can cause print quality problems.
