Loading Labels
Important!
In order for the labels to feed properly during printing, the labels must be loaded with the left edge of
the label inserted against the left edge of the label feed slot. See Figure 8.
To load a label roll
1
Press the form-feed button to eject the labels that
protected the printer during shipment.
2
Open the top cover and remove any packing material
inside the label compartment.
3
Remove the label spool from inside the top cover and
pull the spool guide from the spindle.
4
Hold the spool spindle in your left hand and place the
label roll on the spindle so that the labels feed from
underneath and the left edge of the label roll is firmly against the side of the spool. See
Figure 5.
5
Slide the spool guide onto the right side of the spool and press the
guide tightly against the side of the label roll,
leaving no gap
between the roll and the spool. See Figure 6.
NOTE
To ensure proper feeding of labels during printing, the label roll
must fit snugly against both sides of the label spool, with no gaps.
