Page 9: Loading Supplies
3. Loading Supplies To open your Bronco and load supplies, start by raising Bronco’s lid, lifting at the front edge, above the cutter opening. You can also gently pull the cutter mechanism forward to lower it out of the way. -
Page 10: Loading Label Stock
Fresh label stock comes in a roll with plastic end caps on each side. The material typically has a glossy print surface on one side, and a disposable paper backing on the other side. When printing, Bronco will feed some of the label stock from its roll and cut off the printed label. -
Page 11: Connecting The Printer
NOTE: You may need IT administrator privileges to install a driver. Connect the power supply from the DuraLabel Bronco printer to an electrical outlet. Next, connect the USB cable from the DuraLabel Bronco to your PC. Turn on your Bronco using the power switch on the back of the printer. - Page 12 Finish. When the Driver Wizard starts, the program should automatically detect your Bronco. Select the entry for your Bronco (in the list under “Install a driver for a Plug and Play printer”) and click Next.

Page 13: Choosing Driver Settings
5. Choosing Driver Settings We recommend checking your Bronco’s settings before beginning any print job. Changes to these settings may not take effect correctly if your label design software is already running; we recommend closing any open programs, making the necessary changes, and then opening your label design. -
Page 14: Stock
5.3.4 OCCURRENCE If you want Bronco to cut your labels, you can also set when the cutter runs: after every label, after identical copies, after a set number of labels, or after each complete print job. -
Page 15: Options
Options When needed for troubleshooting, you can adjust the print speed and darkness settings for your Bronco here. The darkness setting controls how much heat is used during the printing process; some printing supplies require different amounts of heat to print with the best quality. -
Page 16: Installing Labeling Software
DuraSuite Labeling Software lets you create professional-quality pipe markers, arc flash, NFPA Diamond, RTK, GHS, and custom labels, quickly and easily. To install, from the DuraLabel Bronco startup screen, click on DuraSuite Label Software and follow the directions that appear. Refer to the DuraSuite Labeling Software User Guide for additional information. -
Page 17: Maintenance And Troubleshooting
We recommend that you clean the Bronco when you change supplies, as this may be the most convenient time. Cleaning will take less than five minutes. Before cleaning your Bronco, turn it off using the power switch in the back of the printer, near the black power cord. -
Page 18: Checking Supply Loading
7.2.2 CHECKING SUPPLY LOADING Most of the errors that will prevent Bronco from printing are simply the result of a mis- feed of the supplies in the printer. If a problem occurs and the indicator light blinks red or yellow, follow these steps to check the supply loading. - Page 19 MAINTENANCE & TROUBLSHOOTING After checking the supplies, press the print head carriage back down until it latches securely on each side. Close the lid, and turn the printer on again. Your label may print out correctly as the printer restarts. If you have any further questions, please contact us for help at 800.788.5572.
