Important Tips

1. Always press and hold the green Print Button, 
    wait for the “P” to appear, then slide across
    media while keeping Print Button pressed.
2. The machine may automatically turn off if the 
    purple button on the back of the unit is pressed, 
    so do not rest your palm on the back of the 
    machine during use.
3. The Design Runner has a battery save feature 
    and will automatically turn off when not in use.
4. The Design Runner has an optical sensor on 
    the bottom that ‘tells’ the machine to print 
    when moved with the green Print Button pressed. 
    If the optical sensor is stationary it will not print.  
    If the sensor is placed on something reflective 
    (glass or a lacquered table) the machine will not 
    sense any movement and will not print.

   

  -Note: Place paper on your reflective surface (under the

      sensor) before printing

  

5. Be sure to place the Design Runner back on its 
    docking station when not in use to help protect 
    the print head and keep the ink cartridge from 
    drying out.

Positioning Prints

1. After pressing the green Print Button, the screen
    shows a “P” in the lower left corner.
    Keep green button pressed when printing.
2. In most cases it appears so quickly it is not noticed,
    however with long images (for an 8” phrase) it will
    take 2-3 seconds to appear.
3. Place the + located on the bottom right or left of the  
    Design Runner where you would like the image to
    begin printing
4. The + located on the screen marks the beginning
    the image.
5. The + located on the bottom right or left hand side of
    the Design Runner marks where the image will begin
    printing on the media (paper, ribbon, etc.)
6. When using the + located on the right, glide the
    Design Runner to the right to print and the image will
    start printing at the beginning; when using the +
    located on the left, glide the Design Runner to the
    left to print and the image will start printing at the end
    point. 

The black dot is marked 
on the paper to identify
the point at which 
the printing is desired.

Line up the cro on
the black dot.

The print will begin on the
paper as it appeared on the
screen.

Tips for Perfect Prints

1. Before you use your Design Runner utilize the maintenance feature to
    ensure clean, clear printing. Do this by pressing the Wrench Button
    on the lower right portion of the key pad. A black screen will show up
    on the screen, press and hold the green Print Button, wait for the “P”
    and then slide the Design Runner across a piece of scrap paper.
2. If the ink did not print out completely (as shown “a” below) use a
    slightly damp paper towel and wipe off the ink head. Repeat Step 1 & 2
    until the unit prints properly (as shown “b” below).

Preserving the print cartridge

1.  When not in use, always keep
     the printer on the base.
2.  Keep a new cartridge in its
     packaging until you are ready
     to install it.
3.  Do not remove a cartridge from
    the printer except to replace it,
    clean it, or store it in an airtight
    container.The cartridges do not
    print correctly if left exposed for
    an extended period of time.
4.  Keep any additional cartridges in
     a storage unit when not in use.
