Getting to Know Your Printer
Become familiar with the location of the feature and
function keys on your printer. See Figure 1 on page 7.
The following sections describe each feature in detail.
Power
The button turns the power on and off. To save
power, the printer automatically turns off after five minutes
of inactivity.
When the printer is turned off, the current label and
settings are remembered for the next time the printer is
turned on. If the batteries and power adapter are
disconnected at the same time, some of the settings are
remembered; however, the current label is lost and you
will need to reset the label width when you reconnect the
power and turn on the printer.
LCD Display
The LCD display includes a caption bar showing the
current label type, and feature indicators across the top
and on the right side showing which features are currently
selected. Feature indicators appear black when selected.
See Figure 6.
