2.1 Setting up the Printer
NeuraLabel 500e setup is simple and should only take a few minutes. Before you begin, you will
need to choose an easily accessible location and decide how the printer will be integrated into
your network. You will need a power outlet, a physical network connection and a network
address for your printer.
2.1.1 Unpacking the Printer
Setup sheets for the NeuraLabel 500e print engine, the Continuous Form Attachment and the
Stacker are provided with your equipment. These sheets can be found in their respective boxes.
If you are unable to locate the setup sheets, they can be downloaded in the PDF format from
www.neuralog.com. We recommend that you save your boxes and packaging material.
2.1.2 Location
Printers should be set up in a cool (office-temperature) environment and on a sturdy table or
stand. The printer weighs about 100 pounds. It is recommended that it be lifted and moved by
three people. The printer has handholds which make moving it easier. Be sure to locate these
handholds and remove the CFA and media stacker before attempting to move the printer.

The printer will need power and network connections. Printers in general consume a significant
amount of power and will contribute to network traffic; make sure your facility is set up for office
printing.
For colder locations, if the printer has been stored outside an office environment, make sure the
printer reaches a temperature of 60F (16C) before powering on the unit. Powering on a printer in
colder environments can result in initialization errors. Check the following table for both printer
and cartridge environment ratings.
