Tutorial
Before using, plug the unit into the AC adapter/charger to ensure that the battery will be properly charged.
Remember that the battery pack MUST be charged for 16 hours before using the unit on battery power alone.
Install the ribbon cartridge by tilting the exposed portion of the ribbon down along the front side of the clear
plastic shield (closest to the front of the unit) see ribbon on page 12. Push the cartridge down into the ribbon
compartment until it clicks into place.
Adjust the material gap setting knob in accordance with the label material you are using. (See platen gap
adjustment knob page 12) Setting #6 is the widest setting (mostly used for PermaSleeve material) and #1 is the
thinnest.
Select your labels and move the material guide to the appropriate size for the labels selected. Place the roll of
labels onto the label spindle, making sure that the label cut-out is on the left. Replace the blue spindle guide
positioning it is one of the slots closest to the roll of labels. Place the spindle into staging cradle (located in the
back cover). Turn the unit on and press Feed. This will advance the labels into the printer.
Press Menu. Now select marker and select the type of label that you are using (standard part, PermaSleeve or
terminal block). Press Enter. Type in the size code of your label. Remember if it is a three digit number, a space
must precede the number. Press Enter.
Press Menu again and set the rest of your parameters (i.e. justification, format, quantity, alignment, font, size,
etc.) Refer to the text editor page 7 for support.
Enter the legend to be printed. Press the Print key. If your quantity mode is set to multiple, you will be prompted
to "Enter the number of identical markers to be printed:" Press Print (or Enter) to activate the printing. If you
wish to stop a print job, press the Exit key. The printing will be paused and you will be prompted if you would
like to "align, resume, or quit" your print job. The align feature will allow you to realign the marker vertically or
horizontally to suit your application. Press Exit to clear the screen and your application. Press Exit to clear the
screen and return to the print paused screen or press Enter to continue printing.
