MEDIA SELECTION
The size and type of the labels or tags to be printed should have been taken into consideration
before printer purchase. Ideally, the media width will be equal to, or just narrower than, the print
head. Using media that does not cover the print head, will allow the platen roller to tread on it and
wear it out. The media edge will also wear a groove in the platen roller effecting print quality.
MEDIA LOADING
1 Unlatch top housing cover (Figure 3-2a).
2 Lift top housing cover into a vertical position (Figure 3-2b).
3 Apply media to the printer’s media spool (Figure 3-2c).
4 Place the media spool onto the printer’s holder (Figure 3-2d).
5 Unwind approximately one (1) foot of media from the roll (Figure 3-2e).
6 Adjust the media guides loosely against each side of the media (Figure 3-2f).
7 Close the printer and begin operation (Figure 3-2g).
