4) Close the Peeler Door.
5) If using Thermal Transfer media (ribbon) proceed to Section 2.4 Loading Ribbon. Otherwise close
the printer’s Cover and press downward until latched.
6) Press the button several times to advance the media (if the Fault Light is on, see Section 3.7.)
7) The printer will now peel each label and present it to the operator for removal. The indicator light
will flash orange and the next label will not feed/print until the previous label is removed.
The printer is factory set to use gap media. If using another media type (for example, continuous
media), printer setup must be reconfigured; see Section 3.4
