Loading Supplies

This chapter describes how to load a roll of supply and a ribbon roll.

You can use Paxar's fabric label kits containing fabric labels and ribbon. If you switch from black mark to continuous supplies make sure the DIP switches are set correctly.

Make sure you use only approved Paxar supplies. See Appendix A, "Specifications and Accessories" for a list of Paxar supplies or contact your Paxar Representative for more information.

If you experience label jamming with narrow supplies in humid environments, store supplies separately from the printer in a dry, less humid environment.

CAUTION

The width of the ribbon must be greater than the supply

width. Since some supplies are more abrasive to printheads than others, using a ribbon wider than your supply helps protect the printhead. Failure to do this may void your printhead warranty. Replacement printheads are expensive.
