Operation Panel Introduction 

 
 

POWER Button 

Press the POWER button to turn on the printer, and the START UP SCREEN appears. The printer is on 
“ready to print”  status, the LCD screen should display the message “READY“ on the screen. 
When printer is turned on, keep pressing the POWER button for 3 second will turn the printer off. 
 
 

FEED Button 

When you press the FEED button, the printer moves the label to the defined stop position. 
If you are using continuous labels, pressing the FEED button will move label stock until you release the 
button again.  
If you are using individual labels, pressing the FEED button will move only one label. 
 
If the label does not stop at the correct position, you need to run the auto-detection function on the label 
stock, please see Section 3.4 Label Calibration and Self Test. 
 
 

PAUSE PRINTING_FEED  Button 

Pressing the FEED button while the printer is in standby mode will set the printer to pause mode. In this 
mode, the printer can receive commands, but it can only process them when it is reset to standby mode. 
Pressing the FEED button again will reset the printer to standby mode. 
 
Pressing the FEED button during printing will interrupt printing. When the PFEED button is pressed again, 
the printer resumes printing. Example: While a 10-label print job is running, you press the FEED button to 
pause the printer. Two of the labels have been printed. To resume printing and print the remaining eight 
labels, you press the FEED button again. 
 
 

CANCEL PRINTING_FEED Button 

Pressing the FEED button over 3 seconds during printing cancels a print job. The current print job is 
cancelled. Example: While a 10-label print job is running, you press the FEED button. Two of the labels have 
been printed. The print job is cancelled and the remaining eight labels are not printed.
