install the ribbon, the label, and engage the ribbon mechanism before you switch on the printer.
To use direct thermal mode, install the label and engage the ribbon mechanism before switching
on the printer.
Please calibrate the gap/black mark sensor when changing the media.
When the printer is out of ribbon or label, the ON-LINE LED will not come on and the ERROR
LED will flash. Reload the ribbon or media without turning off the printer. Press the FEED button
a few times until the ON-LINE LED illuminates, the printing job will be resumed without data
loss.

lever backwards, guide the backing paper over the (metal) label stripper and then downwards
insert it between the platen and the self-peeling rod.
