Audience

The Operator's Handbook is for the person who prints and applies labels.

Unpacking the Printer

After you unpack the printer, you should have: a 9840CL printer, power cord, communication cable and a ribbon take-up core (may already be on take-up reel).

Keep the box and packaging material in case the printer ever needs repair.

Power cords are not supplied with 230-volt printers. You need to purchase a power cord separately. The power cord requires IEC 320 STD C13 end finish for the printer interface and it must meet requirements for 1.6 Amps at 115VAC and 1 Amp at 230VAC.

Connecting the Power Cable

To connect the power cable:

1.Plug the power cable into the socket. Plug the other end of the cable into a grounded electrical outlet.

2.Turn on the printer. Press ( I ) to turn on and ( O ) to turn off the printer.
