Loading Media - Fixed Guide - Microcom 438 Operator's Manual

Getting Started
3.5 Loading Media
The easy- to-release print head makes loading media into the Model 438 printer an easy
process. Follow the instructions below to properly load the media.
1. Feed the media into the paper path, located on the back of the printer, until you feel
resistance.
2. Push and hold the Print Button to feed the media through the printer.
3. Once the media exits the front of the printer, release the Print Button.
The printer is also equipped with an Auto-Load feature. This feature allows the printer to
automatically sense new media as it is inserted into the printer, and automatically feed the
media to provide proper registration of the first label/tag to either the leading edge or a
registration mark. For more details on this feature, please refer to Chapter 5, Auto-Load
Commands.
