Attention!
Printhead damage caused by improper handling!
Do not touch the bottom side of the printhead with fingers or sharp objects.
Ensure that the labels are clean.
Ensure that the label surfaces are smooth. Rough labels act like emery paper and reduce the service life
of the printhead.
Print with the lowest possible printhead temperature.
The printer is ready for operation when all connections have been made and labels and, if applicable, the transfer
ribbon have been loaded.
5.1
Synchronization of the Paper Feed
After the label stock has been inserted, for peel-off or cutting mode a synchronization of the paper feed is required.
That way the first label, which is detected by the label sensor, will be transported to the print position and all labels in
front will be fed out of the printer. So the synchronization avoids, that blank labels are peeled-off together with the first
printed label or that the first cut label would be too long. Both effects can cause a useless first labels.
Select
Remove the blank labels peeled- or cut-off during the synchronization.
5.2
Tear-off Mode
After printing, the label strip is removed by hand. The label printer is equipped with a tear edge for this purpose.
