2.Open the Print Head Assembly by pushing the Head Latch toward the rear of the printer. The Print Head Assembly is spring-loaded and will automatically open as soon as the Head Latch is disengaged.

3.Push the Label Supply Guide to the outside of the printer to give the maximum label width.

4.Release the Label Roll Support by pulling outward at the top and swing it down and out of the way.

5.If using roll labels (or tags), load the roll onto the Label Supply Spindle so that the printing side of the labels faces upwards as it unwinds from the roll. The labels should be wound face-in. Push the roll all the way to the inside of the printer and push the Label Supply Guide snugly against the outside of the label roll.

6.If using fanfold labels (or tags) set them on a flat surface behind the printer. Pass the labels (printing side up) through the slot and under the Label Supply Spindle.

7.Open the Label Hold-Down by squeezing the green tab and the release tab together. The Label Hold-down is spring loaded and will open automatically when the latch is disengaged. Feed the labels under the Label Guide, under the Label Hold-Down, through the Print Head Assembly and out the front of the printer.

8.Inspect the label routing and verify that the path matches that illustrated in the Label Loading
