thermal print head to specially treated labels to print. The only
supplies you will ever need to replace with this printer are labels.
Connecting the Power
You connect the power cord to the rear of the printer as shown in
Figure 1-2. Plug the other end to a power outlet. The LabelWriter
printer has an internal power supply that can accept any voltage
between 100 and 250 volts (50/60Hz). As a result, the printer can
be used worldwide.
Connecting the Serial Cable
Your printer and computer communicate through the special
serial cable that comes with your LabelWriter. (A parallel cable
option is also available. Call Dymo-CoStar for details.) The serial
cable has a telephone-like connector at one end that plugs into the
back of the LabelWriter, and two serial connectors at the other
end – a 9-pin connector and a 25-pin connector. Your PC will use
one or the other of these two connectors, not both.
Follow the steps below while referring to Figure 1-2 to make the
proper connections:
1. Turn off your computer and printer.
Figure 1-2.
2. Connect the printer end of the serial cable to the port in the
rear of the printer. It fits only one way, just like a telephone.
