About Printer Operation

Your 4400 printer comes with a wide variety of features and many choices for
configuring and programming. However, normal operation is quite
straightforward. The printer is designed to continually produce high quality
labels in harsh environments with minimal supervision and maintenance.
The Operator menu in the printer contains four selections that let you adjust
the media sensitivity, print darkness, print alignment and label rest point
(perforation point). Since operators must also reload media, clear jams, and
perform other maintenance tasks, this chapter includes procedures for these
activities as well as for using the Operator menu.
Refer to Chapter 1 if you need to locate a part of the printer or a description of
the part's function.
